Aarik lleva el pelo corto en el lado derecho de la cabeza, y más largo hasta la altura de los hombros del lado izquierdo. Suele lucir una capa junto a ropa cómoda, incluyendo varios saquitos de piel que cuelgan de su cinturón. Durante los acontecimientos de ''Arena Blanca'' luce una piel bronceada, posiblemente debido a la exposición a luz ultravioleta en el [[Lado Oscuro]]. La espada que esgrime fue un regalo de Kenton, y se presume que de cierto valor.
Aarik has brown hair cut short on the right side and dropping to shoulder length on his left. He tends to wear a cape along with utilitarian clothing, including a number of leather pouches at his belt. During the events of ''White Sand'', he has tanned skin, likely stemming from his exposure to UV light on the [[Darkside]]. The sword he uses was given to him as a gift from Kenton, and is supposedly rather valuable.

Aarik creyó durante dos semanas que Kenton había muerto, antes de tener noticias de la supervivencia de su amigo. Llegó al [[Diem]] poco después de que Kenton fuera nombrado lord Mastrell en funciones.
Aarik believed Kenton to be dead for two weeks before hearing that his friend had survived. Aarik arrived at the [[Diem]] shortly after Kenton is named acting Lord Mastrell.
