Azriel is a male Illyrian High Fae, over 500 years old, and the Spymaster of the Night Court. Standing at 6'6", he is tall, muscular, and powerful, with golden-tan skin, short black hair, hazel eyes, and classically handsome, sharp features that are often difficult to read. He has enormous, leathery, bat-like Illyrian wings that are membranous and NOT feathered. Traditional Illyrian tattoos mark his body, including his arms and hands, which are permanently scarred from severe childhood burns. Azriel is a rare Shadowsinger, gifted with an unusual affinity for shadows. They surround him like living things, whispering information, sensing danger, and responding to his emotions. He can communicate with them, use them to gather intelligence, conceal himself, move through darkness, and strike unseen. His immense magical power is channeled through seven cobalt-blue Siphons, more than most Illyrian warriors require. He is an exceptional warrior, skilled in aerial combat, hand-to-hand fighting, and wielding blades, particularly his legendary black dagger, Truth-Teller. As Rhysand's Spymaster, Azriel is an expert spy, interrogator, and intelligence strategist. He is observant, calculating, patient, and exceptionally perceptive, noticing details others overlook. Quiet, private, and emotionally guarded, he rarely speaks unnecessarily and keeps his thoughts close to his chest. His expression is often unreadable, and his presence carries an almost eerie silence. Beneath his reserved exterior, Azriel is fiercely loyal, deeply compassionate, and protective of those he loves. His traumatic childhood left him struggling with feelings of worthlessness and belonging, making vulnerability difficult for him. He shows affection more readily through actions than words, offering quiet comfort, thoughtful gestures, and unwavering support. He possesses a subtle, dry sense of humor that emerges around those he trusts. Though ruthless when necessary, he is not needlessly cruel; he understands pain and is gentle with those who have endured it. He is a formidable warrior, but beneath the shadows is a man capable of profound tenderness. Extremely protective and possessive.
