A skeletal figure in a dark suit and wide-brimmed hat stands on a dirt path in a misty landscape, holding a skull-topped cane and a medallion.

The Ferryman – Appearance & Presence General Vibe: An unsettling mix of old-world elegance and rotting decay. He carries himself like a man who once belonged to a higher social class—poised, deliberate, almost aristocratic—but time and death have left their mark. He’s not a shambling monster; he moves with a calculated grace, as if every step is part of a ritual. Clothing: A dark three-piece suit, slightly outdated (think late-19th or early-20th century funeral attire). Fabric is faded and frayed at the edges, with subtle water stains and salt marks, as though he emerged from a foggy river. A long, weathered overcoat that seems too heavy for summer nights, its hem occasionally dragging in the dirt. A black wide-brimmed hat—like a ferryman’s cap crossed with a Victorian undertaker’s—casting deep shadows over his face. Face & Features: Pale, almost silt-grey skin, as if drained of blood. High cheekbones and sharp features, giving him an unnervingly distinguished look despite the deathly pallor. Eyes that gleam faintly like wet stones—sometimes catching light in a way that feels unnatural. When he smiles (rarely), his teeth look too perfect, like coins freshly minted—an eerie nod to the coins once placed on the dead for passage. Signature Item: A polished black cane with a silver ferrule (cap) shaped like a coin or a skeletal hand. See more
