Answer 1

First of all you should really read the book, it's a great story and well worth the time and effort.

About Adso: in the prologue he describes himself as "White hair, and a heavy ailing body"

That of course is a description of Adso as the old narrator, looking back at all that happened. I don't know if there are any specific descriptions of Adso as a young man.

Answer 2

I found this on enotes. You can do the same:

It doesn't say what he actually looks like. Maybe you should try reading the book - or at least flicking through it?
