What is your character like face-to-face?

As we know, icons and written text don't always give a clear impression of a character.

Describe what your character is like in person. What is their body type? Do they have any distinctive markings? Do they have an accent or unique kind of voice? Any interesting type of body language? Basically, share anything that you feel other characters would notice about yours if they ran into them in the street.

♛ describe all the things that icons don't show.
♛ like height, weight, posture, eye color, voice, etc.
♛ do they look different from canon now?
♛ did they get a new haircut or tattoo?
♛ how do they dress? have they taken to Aqures Ixen fashion?
♛ show and tell! enrich the game experience!
♛ remember to put large images behind cuts

Howdy. This here is Sparks Nevada and it's a fan art, but I like their interpretation quite a bit. The thing to remember is that he comes from a radio show/stage play, so there isn't a lot more than fan art to go around. Yet.

There's an official graphic novel that came out last year of most of the Thrilling Adventure Hour stories, and that's where I get the art I use in my icons. A new official comic comes out in February though! So if you wonder why he's got lighter hair in some icons, uh, that's why. It's a different artist.

If there wasn't a comic, I would have used his actor as a PB instead. Sometimes I wish I had. Look at him. Look at him.

OTHER STUFF!
- I don't think he's very tall. About 5'8", and he's pretty thin too. He carries himself like he's the most important guy around. Because he is. Duh.
- Dark brown hair, grey eyes, tan skin.
- I have no idea how old he's suppose to be, I peg him as early-to-mid thirties.
- He's one of those guys who seems to have a five o'clock shadow no matter when he shaves.
- His voice is gruff and pretty flat. You can hear his VA and clips from the show here. Or you can go on iTunes and listen to TAH already!
- Sparks is emotionally unavailable deadpan. Very deadpan. He's got a bit of an accent that makes him sound like he's been on Texas Mars too long, but it's not as thick as the other humans there.
- He tends to grumble a lot or make smartass remarks to himself, so if you see me using a lot of small text in his dialogue, that's what I'm going for.
- Clothes aren't a big thing to him, so he wears whatever normal Aqures Ixen clothes are, but still wears the cowboy hat and boots. You'll take those over his dead body. Most often you'll see him in his AI police uniform.
- I drew him in his Paladin/Warrior armor, but he's changing jobs soon, so I'll do a new one when I can.
- He doesn't ride a chocobo, he has his rocket steed Mercury here with him.
- His mom calls him Noodle. That has nothing to do with anything, I just wanted to tell you all that.
