meme: more than meets the eye
It has been nearly a year since we last did this meme, and I know we have had a ton of new characters since then and it's a crime that I don't know what they all sound like or what their eye colors are.
There are certain characteristics about the people we play that *we* know, but we get tired of repeating in every introductory ping. There's also stuff that players wouldn't really be able to figure out just looking at an icon--how tall someone is, if they have an accent, what kind of clothes they are wearing...and in some cases, if their eyes/hair/whatever are different than the PB we've picked.
So wax poetic about what your characters look/sound like, if they have tics or scars, if they have a distinct singing voice, etc!
And to echo what Sam said last time this was posted, I am often thrown off when I get into a canon from this game and go, "Whoa, his voice isn't as deep as I thought/she has an accent/et cetera" so I'm especially curious about voices!

Steve McGarrett
-6'2", Dark hair, gray-green-blue-hazel-y eyes, American accent with a fair smattering of Hawaiian slang if he's really leaning into it. He might be the only person you ever meet using "brah" unironically.
-Is a goddamn Navy SEAL, which he will mention if you're within talking range for more than about 10 minutes. As such, is in absolutely ridiculous shape and starts every morning at Omigod Why AM with a five mile swim (yes, in that water) and then a run around the island. Does the run again in the evening. Still gets lapped by Steve Rogers. Will never get over it.
-Speaks multiple languages, most Asian, and is trained in hand-to-hand combat, close-quarters weaponry, handguns, sniper rifles, etc., etc. He can fly helicopters and various aircraft as plot requires. He can sail sailboats and drive boats with engines. He can drive cars extremely fast and can crash every rickshaw he's ever gotten into.
-Is almost always in some form of cargo pants and tight t-shirt that comes five to a package from Walmart. He's either in combat boots or flipflops (Hi, Hawaii). Sometimes he's got a gun strapped to his thigh.
-Both of his arms have tattoos on them, but unlike the actor, Steve doesn't have a weird chameleon on his right pec. Or a ridiculous tramp stamp.
