Kevin's Watch

I always imagined him as quite small but a picture in the album shows him as tall. How do people see him?

I see him as the same height as Covenant.

I can't recall any passage discussing his height.

I wonder why you think he is quite small?

I always pictured him shorter than Covenant (for no particular reason,really). Say about 160-165 centimeters.

5'11

I pictured him to be the average height of a human considering he was created in human form

He's about the size of a kitten. Or a little bunny.

Do the ur-viles even wear shoes? XD

I never thought of him as short, but I always imagined him as crouching, giving the illusion that he may have been shorter then he actually was.

I was tempted to say he was 8 inches tall with a purple head but that would just be crude. No - he was just normal height i.e. the same height as whoever was reading about him and Orlion - no way did vain 'crouch' - that was not his nature at all (though I fully admit he did stand with his knees slightly flexed).

About this big.

I always figured he was shorter than the average human, by perhaps a foot or so. I got the impression from the series that the ur-viles were shorter in stature, whether that is correct I can't say for sure. I applied that impression to their creation.

I know that Vain was shorter than his beloved companion Findail, so that might also be where I got the impression of Vain as a shortie.

Short and burly. Quiet, hard to move. Makes a good doorstop.

I've been wondering if Lena had a part to play in the creation of Vain.
Suru-pa-maerl applied to obsidian, with the help of Saltheart Foamfollower.

Which would make him as tall as Lena.

I'd say shorter than humans, squat as a stonedowner, but agile as a woodhelvin

I see him a 6" 2", but he slouches alot and it appears he 5" 8"

He was a construct, he was made in the image of a Ur-vile but he may not had the height constraints of a Ur-Vile.

Perhaps as tall as the Staff of Law?

I cant belive all these replies, vaijn was as tall as tc he was perfect human ie icon ov a race that cud repr0duse

huh...the ur-viles heads were lower, cuz they were often on all fours and had equal length limbs, but I thought they were as long [roughly] as humans tall [the Waynhim (sp) smaller...like german shepard size]...But Vain...I always had him pictured as an all-black Haruchai [probably cuz he's still, but ready, and when he does move it's always sure, precise, no waste, and his "attire" seemed similar, IIRC]

but...Findail is taller than that? I always thought Findail was between hip and chest high on a normal human, but proportionally correct, not a dwarf or anything...did I miss something? I mean, does it say how tall Findail is somewhere? [I didn't picture all the elohim as short, btw, just Findail far as I recall]

Or as tall as the Staff with his arm raised over his head (isn't that how it's described in WGW when he and Findail are melded together), the top heel of the Staff from his arm ends up on top, the one on his ankle on the bottom. So to me that would make him fairly short, maybe only 5'5" or so...how tall is the Staff?
