Character

Name: Alexander Veeres, AKA Vee
Player: Exhack
Campaign: Changeling: The Lost
Concept: Amy's Fetch
Virtue: Fortitude
Vice: Wrath
Changeling: Amy Renwright
Experience: 60

A mop of messy brown hair and dark sunglasses do a good deal of obscuring this youth's face, though he's still easy to notice. Delicate features with the exception of a strong jawline do much to lend an androgynous look to his features, perhaps as if puberty never took proper hold for him. Alex often looks dour or serious - not mopey, just as if the weight of the world were on his shoulders. Or he thought it was. Probably the latter.

The rest of his lithe frame is usually hidden under a thick military-style jacket and baggy pants, both black. The patch sewn on the right shoulder of the jacket is recognizable to local Hunter cells as the logo of a particularly vigilant anti-Changeling group. Underneath he's got a yellow T-shirt with the Sinestro Corps logo (google it), and under that, he's in better shape than you'd expect from someone that looks like a nerd. Not exactly going to be a linebacker any time soon, but he's well-built.

Any Changeling that looks at him would notice something artificial about him right away; matted, sweaty hair, splotchy skin that's barely holding together, and on closer inspection, his nature as a Fetch is clear: His eyes are camera lenses from a cell phone and a digital camera, his ears are microphones from some portable video games, and his mouth is covered with speakers. His skin are scabs and flesh torn from injuries, cobbled together over a body made from spilled blood, mud, and leaves. By the time you have a chance to itemize his "recipe," though, he's probably ready to strike. It was nice knowing you.
