Lord Xurinos
Something tickles in the back of your mind, pressing in at the edges, as your gaze settles upon the visage of an old drow mage. His ebony skin is slightly wrinkled, indicating great age, as few drow show their years even unto death. The jaw is sharp, his cheeks angular and gaunt. A silvery white mustache suspends to the left and to the right, just beyond the cheek bones, before dropping downward in parallel with an equivalent length beard. The bearded ensemble looks something like a trident pointing downwards with his sharp nose as its haft. Above both eyes are silvery white eyebrows, angled slightly upward towards the far sides, like a hawk with wings spread. The eyes are white without pupils, overlaid by a hazy glow of brilliant blue that shifts at times to dark green. When Xurinos turns his head, the colored haze trails behind the eyes before settling at their stop. Silvery white hair flares out from a central part at the top of his head, thickly trailing down either side of his face and partway down his chest. The drow is sometimes tall and sometimes small.
The old drow wears voluminous robes that shift colors from blue to green at moments out of synchronization with his eyes. Sometimes the color on the robe is so dark that your eyes are drawn into an endless depth, as if the Void itself is revealed in its cloth folds. Both sleeves billow outward, draping over Xurinos's thin arms. One hand holds a gray, wooden staff with a small, gray dragon mounted at the top, made from a material akin to metal. The dragon is never the same when you look at it twice, always assuming a different pose and shade of gray. Xurinos leans upon the staff, requiring its aid to remain upright.
Power emanates from the ancient one. You are filled with a sense of many millennia of experience and a fear of a perception beyond mortal measure. However, the power is unfocused, drifting, unstable in its outward push, and Xurinos often gazes at things elsewhere. A kind of madness flows through the power, and your mind at times loses its focus, leaping off track.
