Short-stock is, well short.
Around 3 feet tall and potbellied as if his helmet was under his shirt.
His hair, sideburns, bodyhair and feet fuzz is black.
He is cheerful of personality and is always the first to grab some rations and cook up something good from the almost uneatable rations.
Short-stock is a competent sharpshooter, and his agileness and size makes him not terrible with his knife, both in a melee and at the stove. When ever he walks off with his long las, and hides himself, you find him hard to find.
