SILVER FOX

Malik, diminutive, white-haired, sprightly, and extremely youthful in his temperament, will untiringly perform all the stunts that are considered, dare I say it, the preserve of youth—skateboarding and breakdancing, for instance—and to hear people around him gasp in astonishment as he perfectly executes the trick in question, the same trick that so many a decade younger than he would choke on.

Malik dresses incongruously in bright, patterned shirts with mismatched socks that manage to be chic. Cheery, witty, and invariably able to lift those around him, his core personality exemplifies ageless youth.
