Clemente
“What does it feel like to be lonely? It feels like being hungry: like being hungry when everyone around you is readying for a feast. It feels shameful and alarming, and over time these feelings radiate outwards, making the lonely person increasingly isolated, increasingly estranged. It hurts, in the way that feelings do, and it also has physical consequences that take place invisibly, inside the closed compartments of the body. It advances, is what I’m trying to say, cold as ice and clear as glass, enclosing and engulfing.”

Appearance
Clem is not particularly known for dashing looks. His blue eyes are deeper than the sky but sometimes appear lighter or greener than they are depending on the day. While his eyes might catch interest, the rest of him certainly does not. His armor hides his physique and even when in regular clothes he wears items that are loose and ill fitted, hiding his entire leanly athletic frame from the entire world. long-sleeved tunics hang limply off his shoulders as if they were on a hangar instead of a young man. His brown hair is unassuming, a couple of shades darker than his face that has already seen a lot of sun. He has major farmer tan lines.
Skills and Abilities
Can ride horses, basic skills in reading and writing, surprisingly very good with his finances.
Personality
Bashful and indecisive, his leaning towards helpful kindness can often go unnoticed. He tends to be clumsy when embarrassed and will speak too much if he feels uncomfortable in any situation. Is very family-oriented.
