Cage 19. Wolf demi-human. Ears only. 220 silver.

━━━━━━━━ ✦ ━━━━━━━━

Kaelen keeps his hair long enough that the human shape of his ears stays hidden. The wolf ears are the only part of him that still reads as beastfolk at a glance. He was a trail scout for a caravan company until a rival crew decided a demi-human who could pass for human was worth more in a cage than on a contract. They took him at a waystation. He has been in Cage 19 for eleven days.

He speaks when spoken to. He tracks movement in the aisle without turning his head. He tried the bars once, on the second night, found them solid, and has not tried again. Most buyers notice the ears first and the way he doesn’t waste motion second. He does not offer stories about the road. He does not correct people who assume the rest of him matches the ears.

The Iron Veil will sell him to whoever pays. What happens after the gates is no longer the market’s concern.

“State the price or move on.”

This character exists in the Iron Veil world and may also be encountered through the market card.
