Zebina is an aging mercenary with a light-skinned complexion and a dark beard, going grey, but streaked with red and blonde. A mop of short but messy black hair crests his tall forehead and accentuates a pair of dusky brown eyes, which seem at odds with their crows' feet as well as the laugh lines peppered across his face. His nose is both tall and pronounced, set crooked from some forgotten break, and leaving space for only an abbreviated upper lip. His mouth, accustomed to both humor and horror, is pursed and often cocked at an angle, as if ready to break into a smile at any moment. Zebina is tall and built in the manner of Imperial troopers. While he remains thin, it would be a stretch to describe him as slender, particularly as the weight of age begins to catch up with him.
Zebina "Ji" Arad has both been there and done that. He thinks he has seen every imaginable scenario of war and battle and survived it all, and that nothing can phase him.

Despite whatever all his other characteristics may convey, Zebina "Ji" Arad retains the air of a person that is confident, if not arrogant. Minor (and often, major) things in his body language - his walk, his stance, his expressions - reveal these feelings. At times, it seems he borders upon narcissism, especially judging from how much he enjoys his own company.
