Two separate styles of Trumps of Robert exist. The first is
older, having been around since the start of the game.
The second is more recent, only having come into circulation since
the creation of Sable.
| Original, Pre-Sable Description | Post-Sable Description | |
| Robert looks to be in his early thirties
(although since it was drawn he's aged somewhat). He is about 5'10"
in height, his build is average to medium, and he looks as if he keeps
himself very fit. He has shoulder length, blond hair, usually tied back
(c1790 style), and deep green eyes. He has a pleasant, if not stunningly
handsome face, with well defined features and a slightly pale
complexion.
He is pictured at the top of a staircase down from the flagstone terrace of a large, stone, creeper covered stately home. The day appears bright and sunny. Robert's hand rests on the top of the stone balustrade which acts as the banister down the staircase. He is wearing hunting pink - white shirt, red hunting jacket, jodhpurs and tan-topped black riding boots. He carries no obvious weapons. |

Nowadays, Robert appears to be in
early-forties, and certainly within Sable itself his hair is normally
worn short, rather than shoulder length as in the old days, although
this seems to be a relatively new habit.
He is pictured standing on a rock promontory, overlooking a volcanic lake of the deepest blue. Across the lake, a slightly curving, rocky wall can be seen, partly covered in pine trees, and in front of that, a small island can be seen. He is wearing a long sleeved white shirt, open at the neck, and dark trousers. A dark jacket is on the rocks at his feet him. He appears to be unarmed. |
Of course, over the years, a variety of images have been created for/of him. Here are a selection.
