Zelesh is a handsome scraggly youth with thick brown hair who has yet to come into his full growth or beard.  His clothing is durable and drab.  He is wearing a padded gambison, boots, and a sword that all look like they've seen action, but are in good repair.  These are all bit too large, but usable; he'll probably grow into them.  His piercing brown eyes are his most arresting feature that, in unguarded moments, are old beyond their years.  Likewise, the way that he puts concepts together indicates a certain deliberation and unintentional intellectual arrogance.  He's the kind of person who will walk up to you after six months and continue a conversation quoting things that you've said and are only half-remembered.
