Tumbler Iou, Wave Dancer frowns and says to an atavian slave in a slightly
squeaky voice, "Are you okay?"

The first thing one would notice about this atavian slave would be his wings, or
rather the lack of them. Two amputated appendages, where once gorgeous wings had
fluttered, protrude from his shoulders. Now nothing more than gruesome stumps,
they twitch occasionally with the memory of flight. A shock of rich blonde hair
falls in tousled waves into his vibrant blue eyes, though madness has long
ringed them with black circles. A tattered pair of pants clings to his muscular
thighs, leaving his chest bare to the delight of the gnoll females.
