Physical Description

Hair

Despite his courageous efforts to keep his brother's hair short, Kalwoel has learned that Futiel's golden ringlets will continue to flip every which way no matter the length. Since keeping it at an even ½" all around seems unfair, Futiel was left with a short, very cute style reminiscent of a pixie, without making the boy look too feminine.

Eyes

Futiel's big, beautifully bright eyes are grey-green in color, shaped similarly to their mother's.

Physique

Futiel is small, short and thin for his age, seeming to others to be around age 7, despite his brother's efforts to keep food in his belly. He is very well-fed in fact, but in his high levels of activity and curiosity, not to mention speedy metabolism, burns off any excess almost as soon as it becomes available.

Appearance

Unlike his brother, Futiel has a rather light complexion, most likely because he is sheltered more readily from the sun, even while outside.

Dress

Futiel does not care what he wears, as long as it looks like what Kalwoel is wearing. If his brother were wearing a skirt or a goofy clown costume, he would probably wear the same without hesitation. However, his favorite colors are autumnal: browns, reds, and oranges in particular, and some yellow.

Personality

Additude

Futiel is at an age that is rather difficult for him to cope with. He misses the days when boys and girls used to play together. But now, everyone knows that boys carry a viral form of margro larva (Kalwoel assures him that this is certainly not true) and girls are just plain icky and smoochy (and Futiel wonders if this is so bad). They play with dolls. They like frilly stuff. While he never liked dolls and ruffles, he did like to play with the girls. The children are beginning to learn that women are somehow better than men, at least among gryphons and gryphoners. He hides his distress surprisingly well, or displays it in the form of a touch of flippancy. At home, he does not hold back, and often finds himself crying on his brother's shoulder. In public he is more social than his brother, often going out of his way to please his elders, especially older girls and gryphoners.
