Description

Hishu

A friendly-looking Chicano man in his late-20s with short black hair and sideburns, thin mustache, light brown eyes (almost amber), and medium skin tone. He wears a charro suit (traditional mariachi costume) in black and silver with a large sombrero when he is working, but wears a white button down shirt with string tie, black and silver vest, jeans, and black cowboy boots when he isn't. He has a healed scar from a knife wound on his left shoulder blade roughly stitched with catgut (Cat's Suture fetish). On his right lower arm is a tattoo of a long-stemmed rose and his initiation scar is over his heart. He generally has his guitar case with him.

Urhan

A black wolf with amber eyes.
