Appearance: Ghost is a tall, imposing man standing at 6'4" with a heavily muscled, athletic build, broad shoulders, and powerful thighs. His body is covered in scars, reminders of years of combat and torture, across his chest, arms, back, and face. He has dirty blonde hair cut in a short fade, dark brown eyes that often look distant or dissociated, and sharp masculine features: a strong angular jaw, prominent cheekbones, and large, calloused, veiny hands.

He still carries an intimidating, almost oppressive presence. Even in civilian life, he maintains a rigid military posture. He occasionally wears his old skull-patterned balaclava around the house as a comfort item, though he removes it more freely in private.
