Murnik Zephyrn

Murnik Zephyrn is a wiry male gnome with wind-scoured goggles perched on his brow and a neat row of calluses on his knuckles where he strikes stone for practice. He wears dark, fitted monk’s wraps patched at the elbows, every stitch rubbed smooth by hours of rolling, tumbling, and stance work, and his breathing stays steady even when he’s moving—shoulders rising and falling like a metronome. When he thinks, he clicks a small brass thumb-knuckle open and closed, then slides into a low guard with his feet light as skipping pebbles.
