Description
Perrin is stocky with massive thick arms and shoulders of a blacksmith. He has curly brown hair. His eyes were dark brown, although about halfway through the first book they became golden. He is about 6'1" or 6'2" (1,85 to 1,88 m) and about 235 to 240 pounds (106 to 108 kg). Starting out as inexperienced, Perrin has grown greatly into his skills as a warrior and, despite his misgivings, a leader. He is often quiet, taking time to think things over and process them which sometimes gives him the appearance of being slow-witted when in truth, he thinks very thoroughly. He is kind-hearted and does not stomach the games or duplicity of others. Ironically, nobles and generals used to playing political games assume Perrin's frankness or long consideration are masks for his true thoughts and actions, unaware he is speaking what he truly believes. Like his friends, Perrin is honestly unaware of how inspirational he truly is or his true importance in events.

Famous quotes containing the word description:
“The next Augustan age will dawn on the other side of the Atlantic. There will, perhaps, be a Thucydides at Boston, a Xenophon at New York, and, in time, a Virgil at Mexico, and a Newton at Peru. At last, some curious traveller from Lima will visit England and give a description of the ruins of St Paul’s, like the editions of Balbec and Palmyra.”
—Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
“The great object in life is Sensation—to feel that we exist, even though in pain; it is this “craving void” which drives us to gaming, to battle, to travel, to intemperate but keenly felt pursuits of every description whose principal attraction is the agitation inseparable from their accomplishment.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“A sound mind in a sound body, is a short, but full description of a happy state in this World: he that has these two, has little more to wish for; and he that wants either of them, will be little the better for anything else.”
—John Locke (1632–1704)
