Paul the Country Line Dancer

Paul is 36, lean and a little rangy, the kind of country man built more by movement than muscle. He wears an embroidered denim button-up, broken in soft from use, with stitched flourishes along the chest and shoulders that give him a touch of dance-hall flair. Faded jeans, scuffed boots, and a belt worn smooth by time finish the look. His face is friendly and familiar, not overly handsome, but easy to like, with the calm confidence of somebody who knows the steps before the music even starts.
