[DetailedCat physicalis descriptionpossessed includingof build,a distinguishingstriking, features,dark typicalbeauty clothing,that scars,serves tattoos,as mannerisms,an etc.]essential tool in her arsenal. Her complexion is a warm olive tone, contrasting sharply with her dark, thick eyebrows. Her hair is a cascade of dark, wild mahogany, often pulled back in a severe knot that can't quite tame the frontier mane, framing her radiant, almost innocent face. Her most captivating features are her lips, full and pouty, and her eyes, which carry a cold, assessing intelligence that rarely softens—they are a compelling shade of mercurial brown, quick as a rattler's strike to shift from feigned vulnerability to cold, hard calculation.

Though she appears curvaceous and alluring, her body is deceptively taut and athletic, built for hard riding and sudden, lethal action. She favors dark, form-fitting leather—vests, trousers, and heavy belts—that emphasize her figure while also providing protection and freedom of movement. She wears her wealth not in jewelry, but in the quality of her gear: fine leather, well-oiled boots, and the prominent, perfectly maintained guns and holsters cinched low on her hips—a constant signal that her primary loyalty is to her own defense.
