* '''Build''': Lithe. Svelte and elegant. Semi-athletic. He’s a lot stronger than he looks. But it's mostly lean muscle, so it makes any musculature more toned than big. Tall by humanoid standards. (Almost short by Aurelian standards. Most of his family stands closer to 7 feet or a little taller + head feather height.)

* '''Uniform (on duty):''' Basically the average uniform, but non-constricting on arms and wings, there are multiple style choices depending on his mood. He only binds his wings in EV suits and small spaces.
* '''Uniform (on duty):''' Basically the average uniform, but non-constricting on arms and wings, there are multiple style choices depending on his mood. He only binds his wings in EV suits and small spaces.
* '''Taste in clothing (off duty):''' Feminine. He does sometimes choose pants, but more often he prefers a skirt, usually short or mid-length. Rarely long. He normally puts a small pair of shorts underneath them for the sake of keeping everyone else comfortable with him. And sometimes it's cuter that way. His shirts also tend to be cropped higher. Colorwise: If he's choosing colors to complement, he goes into deep reds, purples, greens, blues, and reddish browns. But he also knows he wants to have a good time and isn't afraid of candy colors that might clash. Sometimes he even wears interesting patterns. It depends on his mood. There's always a means of keeping the wings freed, and that often entails an open back. This style choice has caused small amounts of confusion from some people due to a lack of comparison of his race. This doesn't bother him, he'll just shrug and correct it. Sometimes he'll even just shrug without correction, people figure it out eventually. The daily use of clothes in personal expression even without practical use is something his Aurelian family finds odd and quirky. It is the closest thing he has to a guilty pleasure. Because of his choice to wear clothes at all as an Aurelian, along with his choice to be feminine about that even though he's a guy, he can very much be considered a "gender non-conformist". And he enjoys that aspect of his identity.

It is the closest thing he has to a guilty pleasure.  
* '''Voice:''' Formal, but whimsical speech patterns. Peppy energy. His vocal range is a little higher, and when he's really excited there is a noticeable increase in the musical intonations. His accent is indeterminately sing-songy. He can sound mimic various things like the combadge chirp, and a phaser noise, as well as a variety of interesting animal sounds, which is something to keep in mind about his voice. And when he sings he's got a decent range that, at its most flamboyant, can belt out music that sounds like a power ballad. A very beautiful power ballad, at that.

Good to note that his accent is fairly subtle these days as he masks it to make it easier to take him seriously. But if you get him drunk enough, his much thicker accent comes out, and he sounds a bit like he could break into a musical number at any point.
* '''Notable details:''' Everything about him. He's tall by most standards, he's bright red, he's got a colorful head crest and a beak tattoo. He has large wings that are as expressive as the rest of him sometimes. He's very noticeable.

* '''Hobbies and Pastimes:''' Socializing, singing and/or whistling. He often finds things to do with Engineering specifically; small practical things. Learning new languages.

He just thinks their choices in architecture and decor make rooms feel hostile.) The Borg.
