He wears a minimal set of dark armor that doesn't cover much of its body, consisting of wide pauldrons, small metal plates that only cover the side of his chest, boots, vambraces, and a metal fauld covering a pair of black briefs. This attire is completed with a long red cape around his neck. In his right hand, he wields a double-bladed weapon. This weapon is similar to its armor and has a metallic handgrip and two sharp, curved metallic blades in each extreme.
