Physical Appearance
Spelter is a slight, somewhat unassuming figure, often seen in the traditional robes of a wizard, which are slightly too large for his frame, giving him a somewhat disheveled appearance. His robes are adorned with the usual arcane symbols, though they seem to hang awkwardly on his thin shoulders. He has a pale complexion, with a face that often wears an expression of mild anxiety, and his hair is thin and wispy, adding to his overall air of nervousness. His eyes, though often darting around nervously, hold a glimmer of intelligence and curiosity, hinting at the depth of his character beneath the surface.
