Drezla Mallus is a Hiver, there is no denying that. It would be impossible to mistake those eyes that have seen all the horrors of humanity, and the faint smell of too many unwashed bodies pressed together that Hivers can never fully wash off, for anything else. But unlike the countless wretches that make up the factories and reclamation centers of her native Volg, she is no malnourished waif. Hers is a body thick with muscle, and length of bone has given her some impressive height. The intimidating form of the Volgite is only enhanced by old scars that speak of countless back ally fights, and calloused hands that are used to violence. In a pragmatic move, her long brown hair has been gathered into a more manageable mass of dreadlocks. While not short enough to slip through any grasping hands that might attempt a dirty move in some barroom brawl, she isn't the type to get into fistfights. If someone put hands on her, the knives come out, it is simple as that. Which has become an event that she lost count of long ago.

Beyond the blessings of nature and proper nutrition, Drezla's choice of attire does nothing to dissuade her dangerous air. Not wealthy or connected enough to acquire high-end Carapace armor, the simple ganger leathers she sports bear the scars of many firefights on its scratched surface. A dual hip rig holds whatever pair of knives she happens to have on her person at the time of her mission. The shorter weapons are perfect for the cramped tunnels of Underhives and labyrinthine decks of starships. For when subtly is required, she usually wears a biker jacket to hide her weaponry. On the heavy leather belt around her waist, she displays an old tin icon bearing the glorious form of the Golden Throne. This marks her as one of the faithful, which shouldn't be too surprising in a place like the Imperium. However, when engaging in acts of faith of her cult, or on a particularly deadly mission, Drezla has been known to paint her face with death's head warpaint. To let the foes of the Emperor know what soon awaits them.
