* '''Carriage''': Because of Savan’s intense training in martial arts and sports, he moves with an elegance and quiet power. In fact, there is an almost some feline, animalistic way to how he moves at times, especially when he is tight quarters. Generally, though, he walks with a clean, confident stride, more expansive than other Vulcans. | * '''Carriage''': Because of Savan’s intense training in martial arts and sports, he moves with an elegance and quiet power.
