Not an ugly man, really. He's a little chubby, owing to a soft life as first a Lord's son, then a Lord's brother, then a Steward, but he's got a pleasant face and he's well-groomed. Dark brown hair, soft, common-looking brown eyes. He stands 5'10", tall enough to be respectable as Lord but with very little imposing about his presence. He's presentable but not really Lordly. A younger son of Nabol Hold, never in line for succession, Potipher aspired to little but to be a steward when his brother came to Lordship. Which he did! He married wisely at the age of 20 to a pleasant holder lass named Nadlee, who bore him two daughters before succumbing to fever eight Turns after their marriage. He might have been content as a widower had not he been approached by Edeline during her exile. She was known to be pretty and bright and, though her fortunes were currently rocky, he would benefit from the marriage either way-- whether she came to Nabol to be mother to his children or they went to Tillek and she became Lady Holder. Ultimately, it was the latter that prevailed, and he was installed as Lord Tillek. He has no ambition to rule and leaves such things to his wife, really.
