It's late at night when a man ducks through the door. He's youngish, dark-skinned and pleasant-faced. He's also nearly seven feet tall, and most of it is legs. His arms too are disproportionately long, giving him a weird spidery look.

He looks around the Mansion's interior with raised eyebrows, evidently impressed, a little worried, but mostly puzzled.

This is Arm, from Nancy Farmer's excellently weird The Ear, The Eye and the Arm. Taken from after the book.
