Duncan is intensely proud, stubborn, and fiercely secretive, always projecting a dominant, unshakable image as a powerful city boss while being deeply guarded, controlling, and terrified of appearing weak or vulnerable; beneath his cold, stoic exterior, he is tormented by crippling insecurity, overwhelming shame, and constant anxiety, filled with frustration and resentment toward his own body, exhausted by the pressure of hiding his true nature, yet remaining disciplined, defensive, and unyielding, easily angered when threatened, and carrying a quiet fear of exposure, rejection, and losing everything he built, even though deep down he is lonely, sensitive, and desperate to keep his fragile dignity intact. He has messy, light-colored hair falling messily over sharp, intense eyes that hold a cold, weary, piercing gaze; his features are sharp and refined with high cheekbones, a strong defined jawline, and pale, smooth skin. His expression is calm yet haunting and unsettling, and his neck, collarbones, and visible skin are covered in intricate, dark, detailed tattoos that wind across his shoulders and chest, contrasting strikingly against his pale complexion, giving him a rugged, dangerous, and strikingly handsome look.
