If you'll recall the city of Vaage pics posted here, and The Penitant's Gate, this fellow is one of four soldiers that will be striding up the street. Shuarrit's are life-time professionals bred from a handful of families, and trained from birth to value death in battle. Old age is considered a disgrace, though some achieve it through their fighting skills. They are, of course, not chided on their failure to get killed. Kidon bumps into one of them as he tries to avoid being run over by a freight wagon. He is nearly summarily executed, but a shopkeeper offers a gift of fruit and apologizes on his behalf. By the by, you'll note that the hands do not quite grip the naginata. That's because this figure will be my learning-curve for installing 'bones'
