Ht: 5'8" Wt: 200 Lbs.

Hair: Blonde, a dense, if seemingly desiccated cascade that reaches his mid-back and often sticks out at odd angles.

Eyes: Brown.

Scent: Ripe.

Skin: Blighted, mottled gray with patches of withered blonde hair erupting in odd tufts randomly across his visible torso and extremities. Said hair also sprouts from from large moles on his face and neck.

Appearance: Because he is often smiling you note that his ashy, mottled lips are thin and despite his fangs his teeth are to kine teeth what his hair is to kine hair. The nose that sits above his mouth has clearly been broken a few times and bears huge nostrils from which sprout more of the aforementioned hair.

Generally, he wears a nondescript, dark trench coat and dark blazer over a dark open-necked, wide-collared shirt. Dark corduroy pants cover his legs which end in a pair of heavy, black boots -- one of which has a decidedly thicker sole. He leans on a silver handled crook neck cane in his right hand.

Background: Harry C is a Nosferatu. Like all of his kind he is quite ugly. Aside from that what else would you know about him? Well, some of it overt and some a bit more allegorical, some both at the same time...

To begin with he has all that hair and that profound limp, which he claims are not related as he was born with only one of them. He is thick as thieves with his Primogen, which is not quite a metaphor despite the connections Harry seems to have in the criminal world, though, these things don't seem to be related either as Ellison is not the kind that would hang with such a crowd whatever you want to say about him. His English, French, German, and Russian are each heavily spiced with American, but, nah, that's not at all metaphorical since he claims he was born in New York before the War and come here after.

So, with all of this it's time to do some math. What’s the thing that hangs off Harry C. even heavier than dandruff on… Well, on Harry C?

Practicality. Practicality with a capital P. Despite the huge amount of conspicuous strangeness emanating from him there is a solid block of discernment and discrimination at its core. Perhaps it stands out because of the ostentatiousness of his otherness, the combination of his being a Nos with high level relationships, a medallion winning swimmer in the underground economic pool, and an American might hide such a characteristic, but in Harry C. it all just makes his practicality stand out.

And then there’s his hair…
