Horatio Monash is commonly seen as a tall, gaunt man , in his mid-20's, with a dark brown crewcut and stubble. He wears a black business suit, with a dark green tie and vest, a black overcoat, and a black akubra covering his green eyes. He gives the overall impression of being dishevelled. His many pockets appear to be full of various objects, and under his jacket are various utility belts full of more items. In one hand is a large black brief case, while the other hand goes through the shoulder strap for a laptop bag, which bounces against a backpack, but the hand is attached to a large suitcase trailing behind him. Behind the suitcase is his most unique "possession," a 2m tall emu, a gift from some friends in Australia.
