Appearance
Schavitz is of tall height; with a slightly stocky, muscular body type bordering on heavy; has blue eyes; and has warm/dirty gray fur.
Schavitz is missing his left eye, which was shot out by Sgt. Black Rat; he usually wears a patch to cover up the healed wound, which looks merely like his eye is tightly shut. [NOTE that he's drawn with his eye still intact simply for portrait reasons.] His left ear is somewhat tattered. He has various scars on other parts of his body. He usually wears the traditional field-gray Wehrmacht uniform with peaked general's cap and dress sword, though he often adopts a more casual appearance by removing his cap, rolling up his sleeves, unbuttoning his collar, etc. He has a rather hulking, intimidating appearance and an amused smirk.

Trivia
*Schavitz's original (completely made-up) character name was Schavich. I eventually changed it to a more German-looking spelling. It was unintended and coincidental, but the real name "Schavitz" (or alternate spellings) has possible Jewish connections.
*I recently went down a weird Wikipedia rabbit hole regarding two different SS officers both named Ludolf von Alvensleben. Ludolf Jakob von Alvensleben, a dispossessed Junker, tortured Poles and Jews in the cellar of his former manor house--similar to some of Schavitz's activities. Ludolf-Hermann von Alvensleben, the other Ludolf's relative and commander who also killed many Poles, inherited a property which his family had bought in the 1700s, called Schochwitz Castle. This has no relation to my story, I just find the parallels--and the similarity of the castle's name to Castle Schavitz--interesting.
