I was wondering what exactly tel looks like? The further along in the rp i get the more the assumptions I made are worng :p
Tumblr media
Tel lives to defy assumptions. They're non-binary. He asked Vivec to trans his gender, and now exists in a body that would most accurately be described as intersex. They use he/they pronouns.
The screenshot is fairly accurate to what he's supposed to look like as long as you don't make assumptions about what's in their pants. If you want a written description, I can offer you this from my reference document:
5ft. 6in. (or 168cm.) Thin, slightly underweight scrappy build, with the musculature of a runner and archer. Prominent pectoral muscles, no breasts, and slightly wider hips than most male mer the same size. Mid-dark Dunmer-typical ash grey skintone with a faint tan undertone. Body covered in a sparse scattering of freckles and repetitive, patterned-based tattoos. Wears a silver stud in right earlobe and lower lip, and silver nose ring; usually wears simple charcoal makeup, lightly applied to the lips and lining the eyes. Slightly wavy, carrot red hair of only medium saturation, cut to shoulder length. No chest/body hair. Wisp-thin, tapered brows set at a sharp upward angle. Eyes of a dark amber color, including the sclera, also set at a sharp, upward angle. Thin, androgynous facial structure with only minimally prominent cheekbones. He was granted a boon by Lord Vivec, and requested that their body be reshaped into the form that Vivec favors in order to alleviate dysphoria.
I assume you're reading Fayrl's journal. I'm not surprised you're confused, because Fayrl is not only an unreliable narrator, but also confused about Tel quite a bit. If you weren't aware, Tel has some journal entries here (or on Ao3 for ease of reading.)
