Brannon Darrow is tall and thin, with a sharp gaze that seems to take everything in. He seems at once both easy-going and intense: he has a ready smile, and a sympathetic ear, but his eyes are piercing and often linger a little too long, always giving the impression that he's thinking something about what he sees. Which is probably because he is.

His clothes are worn and travel-stained, but his insignia mark him out as belonging to the Temple of Flame in Glissom, and he wears the symbol of Brigantia around his neck. His fingers are ink-stained, and his hands rather worn and calloused - suggesting a strange mix of academic work and manual labour. He has a noble bearing, and fine features - upset by a pallor, a wasted look and a hacking cough that suggest he is no longer as well or as strong as he once was.
