Editing Gilkey (section)

==Appearance==
He has dark clothing and a hat<ref name=":0">Dark clothing, a hat, the apparent strands of hair.  The imprint of his Self was there, like the mouse in it lipid casing, the exterior appearance gone.  There was the shape of a head, of a body, the vague awareness of how to move, and a vague sense of the world.  He had an education but could remember no school, he knew how to talk but could remember no conversations, and he knew of practice, even if he didn’t know how he’d come to it.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/12/08 Excerpt] from [[Playing a Part 15.z]]</ref> as well as glowing eyes.<ref>Gilkey.  The shadowy Other with the glowing eyes.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/11/02 Excerpt] from [[Playing a Part 15.2]]</ref>

He has to concentrate to maintain his form, whenever he rests he turns into a dark pool of poisonous liquid.<ref>Gilkey manifested.  He had to be careful when he relaxed, because relaxing meant no longer holding a form, and when he wasn’t holding a form, he was a dangerous presence.  He covered the walls, soaked into the furniture, and pooled on the ground, around a rusted-out barrel that had been dragged to the center of the room.  In the time he’d been resting, no less than nine rodents had died immediately on contact with the liquid, poison transmitted through flesh.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/12/08 Excerpt] from [[Playing a Part 15.z]]</ref> He only rests for four hours and never more than once in the same place, he does this to prevent it becoming to contaminated.<ref>Part of that was a system for where he could rest.  He limited himself to four hours at a time, unless it was an area he was certain humans wouldn’t reach, and he never returned to a location, out of concern that the alchemical poisons that ran through him might intensify.<br><br>...<br><br>He only picked locations that were abandoned, scouted in advance to make sure nobody would show up without warning.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/12/08 Excerpt] from [[Playing a Part 15.z]]</ref> The effort involved in holding his form causes him to be constantly tired and unable to properly rest.
