Mask:

 "Gallowglass is big" is sort of like saying "water is wet"; the big galoot is massive. Well over six feet, his brawny frame is stacked with hard-earned muscle; his hands are huge, chapped with heavy labor and a life spent working with them. He has a shock of black dreadlocks parked above amber eyes. His clothing is shabby; generally plain work pants, t-shirts that obviously come from an economy pack, and a raggedy tweed overcoat that he somehow keeps relatively clean. He has several tattoo; the most important one is along his right collarbone, a blue forget-me-not flower that seems made of calico and with a streaming pink ribbon about the stem.

Mien:

 He's even bigger behind the mask. The heavy muscle is brutish, almost obscene; his flesh is no yielding tissue but rather thick smoked glass. The glass is chased with rivers of mercury that almost look like blood vessels; they flicker and flare with light, radiating from a lambent source buried beneath the window of his chest. His colorless hair is cropped short and neat, and his eyes are blue-on-onyx, glossy with lacquer.

Mantle:

The Gargoyle's Mantle is very subtle, but carries the heat of the hard stare of Helios on the back of the neck.
