His human half bears skin like golden toast while his horse half is coated with teal scales.

Sharp brows and a large, but not bulbous nose compliment his square, almost heroic chin.

Personal history
Vow was once the gentlest of all the Elementals, the embodiment of love. His own heart was his downfall when he lost it to his sister Element, Grace. She, refuting his advances, left him vulnerable to the Banished.
The Banished twisted Vow's pure and honest love into a cruel and jealous obsession that ate at his every thought, eventually turning him against his brethren.

Despite the Chaos Taint, Vow has held true to his nature and considers anything less than heterosexual relations inhuman.

Deep down at the bottom of his heart, Vow's love for Grace remains pure and true. This fact torments him, as he knows that the aching hole in his heart that only she could fill will forever remain an open wound festering in the dark.
Intellectual Characteristics
Though not as talented as Bard, Vow has an extensive understanding of music. He remains a realist despite his old friend's idealist views.
Morality & Philosophy
Once, Vow sought happiness for all. Now, the only thing that drives him is the insatiable need to fill the hole in his heart.
