Veris is a very mysterious individual, and small for his age. He tends to act aloof and comical but tends to become serious at the drop of a hat, especially around certain subjects. In the morning, he tends to stay near the surface of the water for some reason, dancing in the waves. He tends to be kind, jolly, and very affectionate, unless angered. His name literally means 'The Unknown' translated from ancient Merian. Whenever there is a storm, he always grows jubilant and invites others into the water, or to join him in his wave dancing, no matter how dangerous the waves are.
The bracelet on his left wrist is actually a magical amplification device, making his spells a little more potent than his level of spell mastery would allow. He never answers where he obtained such a artifact and always wants to change the subject when it comes up.
Sometimes he has a sash across his chest which holds a long curved dagger, tiny trinkets, charms, and other little superstitious objects.
