Their body has a number of scars earned through years of combat before their first death, plus torture marks clustered over their back.
They will also paint their face when they explore the Shroud, to hide from Elementals.

Pets: They care for sparrows due to spiritual/religious reasons, but they don't actually see or keep these as pets.
S K I L L S
Abilities: Yein is a stone-wielding paladin, so they do have some abilities based on the PLD class (through fancy aether manipulation). They can also see the dead, and communicate more meaningfully with said dead people via rituals.
Hobbies: Sparring, writing poetry, collecting books (with mostly illustrations), foraging the woods, tending to their hidden shrines, and doing various forms of physical exercise ( ◡̀_◡́)ᕤ
T R A I T S
Most Positive Trait: Their big, big heart! They make sure to leave space for everyone they meet.
Most Negative Trait: Often thinks they know best. Also, they're pretty stubborn.
L I K E S
Colors: Gold, black, and bright reds
Smells: Burnt wood, fresh soil, Ul'dah after heavy rains, curry on the stove, and most flowers ❀

O T H E R D E T A I L S
Smokes: Eh? Not cigarettes, but see "Drugs" below.
Drinks: Yep! Not as much as they used to, but they like a tasty beverage.
Drugs: Only sometimes, and only if the grass is really good.
Mount Issuance: They have a loyal chocobo, Arbiter. He was bred for the Thanalan heat and served as a very good companion to Yein in life. When they died, Arbiter was found by Sacheo searching the place where Yein was last seen/killed.
Been Arrested: Yes! They were briefly held as a political prisoner while still serving the Sultana, prior to the Calamity. Shockingly, they've managed to stay out of Gridanian gaols.
