His hair is dark and unkempt, often falling into his face, adding to his disheveled and unpredictable appearance. He dresses in a haphazard collection of clothes, often mismatched and stained, reflecting his chaotic lifestyle. Carcer's most distinctive feature is his eyes, which are described as having a predatory gleam, always watching and assessing those around him, ready to exploit any weakness.
