Standing just under 6'1" and weighting in at about 182lbs, Arvalis is fair-skinned, of average height, and sports an athletic frame. Devotion to physical excellence has sculpted his body, though he does not carry to overall bulk of many of his peers.
As a former member of Taldryan's intelligence service he is known to change minute details in his appearance from time to time. These past deployments often forced him to dye his hair, or even wear colored eye contacts, a practice he still adheres to almost automatically. Most days he prefers to keep it swept back, save a rather long fringe being swept to the side. He naturally possesses the near white eyes often associated with Umbaran offspring. Combining his rather sharp features with the rest of his appearance, his superiors often mock him for being a "pretty boy".
Additionally; he has gained the habit of keeping his right arm stiff while walking, producing a very noticeable gait, but maintaining easy access to his holster.

If it involves his actions, motives or abilities, Arvalis is guaranteed to lie outright or tell half-truths. He spins a web of lies within lies to ensure everything about himself is kept as secret as possible, forcing anyone to peel away the layers of his misdirections to find the true threat. More often than not Arvalis' words carry a secondary, or even a tertiary meaning, unintentionally misleading those he sees as allies.
As a former member of Taldryan's Secret Intelligence Service, Arvalis has meticulously crafted multiple persona. He seemingly changes personalities as often as other people change their clothes. Arvalis is oblivious to his true personality. While he often times cynically brushes off this fact, deep down he struggles with being a "nobody". If Arvalis is a chameleon who can disguise himself and blend into the background, he also actually is the disguise and the background.
Arvalis is always wearing a smile - he stops smiling so rarely it's always a significant moment when he does so. This gives him an eerie demeanor when combined with his too-calm voice that rarely oscillates or waivers. His pronounced squint and constant grin can offset his true intentions or feelings, making even his allies wary of truly trusting him.
Arvalis is well-spoken individual with a slick Coruscanti accent - formal and polite, but with a rather mocking and facetious undertone. His easy smile, and rudimentary understanding of psychology allows him to cloud other peoples' judgement of him. Those of more cautious natures and keen eyes can often see through this and reveal his true intentions.
Arvalis has an entirely pragmatic and simple approach to combat. There is nothing flashy to his actions, and he will just as easily push someone off a ledge when they aren't looking as he would challenge them to a duel. This mindset often puts him at odds with those that believe in honor and dignity.
Arvalis shows little surprise when an enemy proves to be more powerful than expected, fully realizing the difference between himself and Force-users. Even in such cases he stoically holds his composure, very rarely showing signs of distress. This dispassionate approach often leads to Arvalis feeling alienated from those around him - especially those that are driven by their emotions.
