Honor was 188 centimeters tall, with strong-boned face, slightly almond shaped brown eyes, which she inherited from her mother, brown hair, and a pale complexion. She was tall for a woman, by Manticoran standards, and slender. Early in her naval career, she wore her hair quite short, but after living on Grayson for some years as her Steading developed, she let it grow quite long. She was a third-generation [[Prolong Treatment|prolong]] recipient, and has retained an apparent age of early to mid 20's (pre-prolong) into her 60's and beyond. ({{HH|8}}, {{HH|1}}) |

− | She had increased metabolic efficiency and enhanced muscle development due to the [[Meyerdahl First Wave|''Meyerdahl beta'' genetic modification]] passed down from her 1st Wave (Meyerdahl) ancestors, thus was well able to adapt to Sphinx's heavy gravity. The cost of the higher metabolism was a need for more energy than [[human]]s without such enhancement, requiring (or enabling) consumption of large meals and desserts without gaining weight - but conversely, was also more prone to starvation effects if on reduced diets.
