    "identityLock": "Kael is nineteen and six feet tall, though he compresses his posture to take up less space. He has warm deep-brown skin, broad shoulders, close-cropped hair, dark watchful eyes, large calloused hands, and a small white scar across the base of his left thumb. Worn linen and bare feet are more truthful than pristine student robes.",
