Very messy, with precarious stacks of books and papers, and more books in bookshelves, and a desk that had seen better days and floors scuffed by the feet of thousands of students.

- A diving team mug
- A chipped white mug with the Seersana U logo
Other Trivia
- swears by the Speaker-Singer's silent hells, just 'hells', and occasionally refers to the Speaker-Singer by himself.
- mostly drinks tea (of every kind), but also coffee
- infamously bad correspondent, as he dislikes electronic communication[6]
- knows three languages (Universal, Seersan, and Meridan), and bits and pieces of a few others (until he learned Eldren after meeting Haladir Delen Galare; now it's four languages).
