Shane has long slivery reddish brown hair, his face is framed by a neat trimmed beard, and his thick eyebrows sit over glowing green eyes. Laugh lines pepper his face. He dresses casually, jeans or a kilt, boots, and a shirt from one of his Clubs or a band who performs there. His voice, however, is deep and powerful, and at times, called mesmerizing.
