Tall (6'2") with a slim build and fairly broad shoulders
longish hair that has a tendency to hang in his face, even when he's got it in a ponytail
when it's in a ponytail, you can see grey at his temples and in his sideburns (visible in a couple icons), leftover from his brush with being aged to death
has a chin-beard and a mustache (which are definitely visible in all his icons), both with a couple flecks of silver in them, too
has dark, dark brown eyes
that turn BRIGHT FREAKING SILVER when his trouble goes off
99.9% of the time, he's wearing either a button down shirt or a henley, unbuttoned to halfway down his breastbone, and an undershirt
also multiple necklaces, one of which is a large whistle (the long, narrow kind, not the high school gym coach kind)
if it's at all cold, he's also quite possibly wearing a shapeless cardigan
in the winter, he'll add a puffy vest or a sheepskin lined denim jacket to that
none of his pants come all the way to his ankles
he's usually wearing boat shoes with no socks, or boots that come up high enough that you can't tell if he's wearing socks or not
Seriously, dude's got a very specific, very strange fashion sense
the pants thing is mostly because living on a boat means trying to avoid getting your cuffs wet, though
TATTOOS! He has four that are regularly visible:
one on his left shoulder, which is some sort of circular, vaguely Asian . . . thing
a text-based one on the inside of his upper left arm that says . . . something about taking the less traveled path or something, I'm having no success in looking up the exact verbiage right now. It's hard to read anyway
a filigreed skull covered in butterflies on the opposite shoulder cap
you can actually watch his actor get that one on youtube
which is kinda weird but okay
it was an episode of one of those tattooing shows
with Kat von D
I am really really digressing here
a minimalist, vaguely tribal shark on the inside of his right forearm
this is the only one I've added so far
but there will totally be more!
we see MOST of Duke through season one (they like giving him nude scenes) so unless he's got one on his ass (which is entirely likely), that covers it for tattoos
says almost everything with in a dry, ironic sort of tone
has a somewhat husky voice
though not nearly as husky as it gets by season five holy crap someone give him a lozenge
the actor's the front man for a band that can't decide on a name, but I kind of hate their music so I'm always going to link to that one song from RENT as the go-to "here's Duke's singing voice" reference
is VERY physically expressive when he talks
I mean all the gestures
I try to cover this at least a little in pings but there's no way I could get it all in
Just -- if his mouth is open, his hands are moving
his mouth is usually open, even when he's NOT speaking. Dude's kind of a mouthbreather
smiles when he's freaking out
like, you can probably gauge his mental state by how hard he's instinctively covering and showing his teeth
again, I try to cover this in pings, but it doesn't always work
I thiiiink that's everything? Yeah, that probably covers it. Also, I'm very impressed with myself for getting all the bullet levels coded properly on the first try! (So naturally I had to edit the comment to put his name in the subject >.<)
