At first brush, Cetosabalfan ("Sable") looks much like any kio. He is tall, thin, and fair--standing at 6'3" with dark blond hair and icy blue eyes. Like most of his people, He favors simple garb when traveling (tunic, trousers, boots and a cloak), but he eschews the bright colors those familiar with kio fashion would expect. Instead, he favors dark blues, browns, or even purples. His cloak is a dark brown that is nearly black.

An ornate kio sword is sheathed at his waist.
