He is of average size for an avian but his shoulders are hunched and his dark brown feathers appear sickly and mottled. His light orange beak is chipped and cracked and his beady black eyes are sunken deep within his eye sockets. His wings look as if they have been broken several times and are barely strong enough to hold him aloft. His arms and legs are thin and appear quite brittle, as if they can be easily snapped in two. A stench of death surrounds this carrion creature.
