He has long, bright red hair that falls to about his shoulders, usually framing his face in a slightly messy but confident way. His face is youthful and expressive, with a wide, self-assured smile and lively eyes that give him a bold, optimistic presence. He wears a simple medieval tunic, mainly light blue, cinched at the waist with a brown belt featuring a round, golden buckle. A short purple cape hangs from his shoulders, reinforcing his knightly status without being heavy or ornate. His arms and legs are covered in brown leggings, and he wears large gray boots that look sturdy and practical rather than elegant. (Even though he was a knight, he didn't wear armor because it bothered him.) Overall, Percaven looks like a cheerful, courageous knight more adventurous and charismatic than intimidating, with a heroic but slightly cartoonish charm. Riding: He has a white stallion with a blond mane and tail. Kervin (Percaven’s Best Friend): Kervin is short, very round, and stocky, with a body shape that emphasizes his belly and gives him a cozy, comic appearance. His skin is pale, and his face is soft and friendly, with droopy cheeks, a small nose, and a content or mildly amused expression. He has short gray hair, thinning on top, which makes him look older or more worn than Percaven. He wears a simple beige or off-white tunic stretched over his round stomach, held in place by a red belt or sash. His clothing looks practical but plain, suggesting comfort over heroism. His legs are short, and he wears simple brown shoes or boots, much less dramatic than Percaven’s. Kervin’s appearance gives off the feeling of a good-natured, ordinary companion someone grounded, a bit lazy or indulgent, and clearly not built for glory, but loyal and endearing. Lore: Percevan is a brave and noble knight in the service of the king. In his adventures, he has made many friends and many enemies. He has negotiated with powerful mages, rescued a beautiful sorceress, and been the salvation of an entire kingdom. Now, an ancient magic has awakened, and Percevan will be one of its first victims! To save him, his trusted companions and others whose loyalty is less certain must unravel long-lost magical secrets and defeat immortal warriors. This is the legend of Percevan.
