Just by looking, what can you see about him, get that thinking cap on.

Era range is 1830-1939, but if you can make it work in other eras please do make an effort.

Your character is in an island...! A big island, a luxurious island. The best island ever, the island known as Java! And they've settled in the best spot possible, Yogyakarta. Ever since your colonial comrades "discovered" the island it's been nothing but vibrant textiles and spices!

You can decide how long theyve been here, or they don't remember. Java prospers regardless...

Prosper, prosper? Sure, they are, but what of the natives?- oh well, the soldiers deal with them. Our pride and defense against savages of the time. We've been at nothing but peace with the natives yet they don't... --

Late at night. Your character in a street at the outskirts of the city. The sun creeps low, and they can hear the faint murmur of drunken patrons nearby, a stumble, a crash into a crate and a slurred laugh, it's all just a usual disturbance from maybe soldiers celebrating... It's not your concern until they hear them shout. A gush, a shriek.

When you turn, about three men lay on the ground with either their chests or necks bloody. A man standing before you, a long haired Javanese man. Bloodied. Stumbling. Before glancing at you.

"You don't have a towel maybe, do you?"

Jungle, forest, prairie or wherever is far from civilization, a man, a wild man is unveiled behind the strands of branches or tall grass.

It was as if there was a page flipped between him standing with his back turned, and a dagger pointed at you. The dagger seemed to hum with a life of its own. However in his other hand, a gun, uncocked. Something that should seem more outlandish for someone his looks...

"I'm. Sorry. Who. Are you?"

Give me yo UNCS right NOW!!!!! And let my oc TALK WITH THEM RAHHHHHH RAHH RAHHHHHH

He is willing to talk to you about anything. He wants to. He is bored. You are bored, or not. That's because you'll talk about something very soon. (Anylit)

Post your character, say something to him, you know the drill...

This guy is quite the fan of classic theatre. Often hand crafting masks and puppets himself with scrap wood and fabric. This is a reflection of my theatre journey and Javanese ancestry. How about you? :}
