Taelon is extremely tall, the first thing most notice about him - he stands at 6’8, and with not being fully grown yet, there’s the possibility he might grow even taller. His features are generally equine, with an elegantly tapered nose and sharp features. His lips are full and his eyes are large and bright blue, his skin tanned. A line of freckles traces over his nose and cheeks. His build is slim but muscular, the general build of a runner or swimmer. | |||
Taelon is | He looks young, despite his age - because, for his species, he is. Taelon is technically not fully grown, currently in his late adolescent phase and on the cusp of full adulthood. It shows in his slightly more childlike features and mannerisms. | ||
He doesn’t dress well, and usually wears his uniform even when off duty. While his personal clothing is generally passable, most of it is tattered and old, and he’s yet to get around to buying new ones. He wears plenty of jewelry, most noticeably his nose bridge piercings. | |||
Taelon also bears a tattoo on his forearm. It started simply when he joined the Academy; he’s enhanced it since joining the Starbase, as is traditional for his culture. | |||

Taelon’s anxious nature is betrayed by his body - he fidgets and rarely sits still, constantly twisting his fingers together, swinging his legs, or tugging at his sleeves. He chews his lip often enough to have sores on the inside of it. | |||
He tends to bug his eyes out when surprised - and given how large his eyes are, this tends to make him look a bit like a surprised deer. When nervous he develops a bit of a stutter. | |||
Taelon most notably tries constantly to make himself seem smaller, holding his arms close to his body and slumping his shoulders. He rarely stands fully straight, and tends to try to stand behind other people, especially when nervous. | |||
