Maekon appears to be a human woman in her mid to late twenties. She has pale, flawless skin and long delicate limbs. Her night-black hair and dark eyes make her appear even paler. Her facial features are the very image of classical nobility, and she carries herself with refined grace whether she is striking up a tune in a bar or preparing to deliver the killing blow to an evil being she has had her fill of.
She travels far and wide across the dread realms and is well-known in bardic circles — even if she is believed to be her own granddaughter. To the dismay of fellow bards, Maekon prefers “masculine” fashions whether traveling or performing. She is always dressed in boots, trousers and shirts, and more often than not in riding leathers or hunting outfits. However, when worn by Maekon, such outfits become more sexy and alluring than the most revealing garbs of Vaasi streetwalkers or Akiri dancing girls. A reason for the way she dresses is the fact that she travels light — she never carries more than a couple of saddlebags and a rucksack.
