Yah know, I was gonna say that he looked kinda like a ghoul to me, and this reinforces that suspicion.

And then we also kinda need to keep in mind that Malhart has some pretty poor posture: If he straightened his back he would grow another couple of pixels in height.

Also, Veda being mighty rude.

For me Veda is more of a criminal than Malhart, but it's the law which makes the criminals XD
