About:
Ixaaliot quit being a lawyer because he cared too much about justice. Really, that might be all anyone needs to know about Ixaaliot.
Being Siladen, he is approximately 99% gangle with a hint of lank. He has slender limbs and hollow bones, and someone could probably break all four of his arms at once without trying very hard. It's possible that someone has. Instead of a sense of smell, he has chemical receptors in his cephalic tentacles, but he keeps those numbed because cities are gross and he doesn't need them flailing around on his head all day. He wears special glasses to block ultraviolet light from his vision, because – as stated – cities are gross.
His anatomy conspires to embarrass him at every turn. His vocal cords are in too low a register, and so his voice carries no matter how quiet he is trying to be. He has a pouch on the right side of his neck that inflates with air and causes him to croak involuntarily when he thinks someone is cute. His fingertips stick to surfaces when he touches things incorrectly, or when he's nervous. His tongue is over a foot long, and he sleeps in what is basically a koi pond. While he has designated himself male, that was a decision made to fit in better in Terran Allied society, because the three sexes and eight genders of his species can make things a bit confusing.
Ix is a very private person, in part because he does not consider these things anyone's business.
His only stroke of good luck is that only Siladen understand the scars in his skin. It's hard enough getting by on Osiris without everyone knowing his forehead proclaims him to be, in so many subtexts, a dumbass and a chronic fuckup.
He is as much a cynic as having been a lawyer would suggest, and as much a hopeless romantic as having quit indicates. Being one of Grilka's first 'friends' might not speak to an ideal moral compass, but he hopes that the ends will justify the means. It is much easier, he's found, to find justice outside the law.
