Appearance

Two scars dominate Brutus. One runs down the left half of his face from brow to jaw, damaging the eye it crosses on the way, while the second cuts across his right cheek. He is a gorilla of considerable bulk, wrapped in dense fur of a deep black, with grey showing where the skin is bare. His default expression is a hard glare that almost never softens.

Personality

Very little of his temperament is set down directly. What the material conveys comes through his bearing: the hostility in his stare is a constant rather than a reaction to any particular provocation, giving the impression of an animal permanently on edge.
