Description[]

"It is the colour of a bleached skull, his flesh; and the long hair which flows below his shoulders is milk-white. From the tapering, beautiful head stare two slanting eyes, crimson and moody..."

Elric is a Melnibonéan, and as such, he is not exactly human. He was born with albinism, making his flesh pale, his hair white, and his eyes a deep crimson. He is very tall, slender to the point of gauntness, yet elegantly muscled. Elric is normally attired in traditional Melnibonéan armour with a signature dragon helm. When not in armour, Elric favours all-black garb, but has been known to dress as a mercenary, donning wildly clashing barbarian attire.

 Elric of Melniboné[1] is a fictional character created by Michael Moorcock, and the antihero of a series of sword and sorcery stories centring in an alternate Earth.

This isn't a review of Elric of Melniboné (here on Goodreads alone you'll find plenty of them by much more knowledgeable fans of the saga than me) but of the Gateway collectionElric of Melniboné and Other Stories, which purports to be "the author’s definitive editions of the saga of Elric", something the author himself worked on putting together.
