Chachan has hands befitting his craft, to describe them in the most succinct sense. He has stout, thick fingers that provide a strong grip for both holding a hammer and giving a hardy handshake - both things he takes to readily enough, likely startling a few folks with the strength of the latter should he deign to. He usually wears gloves of some form or another - oftentimes even wearing simple finger-less ones around casually - which help protect his livelihood and also hide the thick, calloused hide that comes from the work he does. While I've never had him do it in RP, if he were to crack his knuckles, they're probably give some pretty loud pops. Like the snap of firewood burning in a forge fire or something equally poetic.

... Still, unless the situation causes for it - his touch and his grip are usually pretty gentle. As mentioned, he could give a pretty firm handshake, but he usually doesn't. He is one for more soft pokes and prods and pats, even though he could easily be a lot rougher or harsh with his actions. I suppose the best comparison for Chachan's hands would be a block of rough, weathered stone... that has a layer of moss on it with some flowers growing . But that's me again waxing poetic. Blush

Gogon, on the other hand, I see having more appropriately Lalafellan fingers. Perhaps a bit longer and narrower. He still has some faded callouses from his time as the heir to the Gegenji family, but any remnant roughness is probably at his fingertips due to his avid reading and penchant for writing. He also takes rather good care of them - both due the need for dexterous movements in spellcasting and his fronting as a nobleman - so he both keeps them regularly manicured and often decorated with jewelry. I might even go so far as to describe his hands as spidery, to befit his "true self" of a manipulative information broker.

Finally, Judge's hands usually aren't seen beneath his gauntlets, but they are even more weathered than Chachan's. Covered in rough skin and scars, it's a sign the man has been through quite a lot. The skin is drawn pretty taut on his bony fingers - a sign of his age - and his nails are almost claw-like. Despite how beaten up and aged they are, though, his grip is still as strong as iron - and, unlike Chachan, he makes solid use of it. After all a firm handshake is a proper handshake - plus he can still break a nose or two with his punches.
