1. If the person was clearly meant to be an ordinary human, I'd assume it was a metaphor for thin, dry, brittle skin, as of someone who is very old or very ill. If there was a chance it was a fantastic character, I'd think colorful/multicolored (red, yellow, orange).
2. I wouldn't get them confused, and I'd pronounce them a-MER-ee (to rhyme with "the pear fee") and a-REN-yay (to rhyme with "the glen pay").
