PUBLIC CHARACTER RECORD
What is known
A compact, furious figure built almost entirely out of massed hair and beard, with huge pale antlers spreading above a glaring face. His eyes are wide and fixed, his teeth locked into a gridlike snarl, and the beard drops in jagged heavy points until it nearly becomes his body. Thick side tufts flare off the head like bursts of pressure, while bulky clenched hands and feet make him read as permanently braced for argument.
KNOWN WORLD LOCATION
Civic Square
FREQUENTSORDINARY LIFE HERE
A belligerent threshold-enforcer type who occupies public passage and turns irritation into confrontation.
Provisional fit only: the station district suits a being whose whole design reads as compressed public anger. Crowds, delays, noise, and bottlenecks would give him endless reasons to flare up, and his planted body shape makes sense in choke points, approaches, or edges where people are forced to notice him.
WORLD EFFECTHis presence could make the district feel more tense and vocal, as if certain corners have their own resident objection. He would likely alter movement patterns simply by being there—people giving him berth, arguing back, or hurrying through before he fixes on them.

Mend & Luggage CounterMorrowstitchA soft, visibly mended little creature whose whole presence suggests patient repair, quiet endurance, and a strangely reassuring kind of wear.

PHYSICAL RECORD
A presence before an explanation
- Silhouette
- Top-wide and bottom-heavy at once: antlers flare outward like a hard crown, then the shape collapses into a dense triangular beard-body with blunt, oversized extremities at the base and sides. Readable at a glance and impossible to confuse with a slimmer figure.
- Scale
- He reads as short to medium in height, but visually large because almost every part is oversized: antlers too wide, beard too deep, hands and feet too bulky. The face sits compressed inside a lot of mass, which makes the expression feel trapped under pressure.
- Material
- Damp matted hair, mud-dark creases, horn with peat staining, rough keratin claws/nails, oily shadow in the beard depths.
- Colour
- #5D6B57, #8B6A43, #C08A4A, #332A24, #D7C3A8
OCCUPATION & CHARACTER
A belligerent threshold-enforcer type who occupies public passage and turns irritation into confrontation.
He looks explosively aggressive, yet there is something almost controlled in how fully he braces himself; his fury feels habitual, not chaotic.
WANTS
- to be heard the first time
- to push back against whatever annoys or crowds him
- to be treated as a force rather than an inconvenience
FEARS
- being ignored while he is visibly demanding attention
- being made ridiculous
- having his anger fail to move anyone
HABITS
- clenching before speaking
- leaning his whole mass forward during an outburst
- holding eye contact too long
- remaining tense even after the immediate quarrel has passed
NEEDS
- a place with regular foot traffic
- room to plant his feet and block or challenge movement
- clear visibility so he can spot and react quickly
CAPABILITIES
- holding ground through sheer physical presence
- broadcasting warning or complaint at volume
- making others hesitate, divert, or answer him immediately
SOURCE ANCHORS
- The broad, branching antlers with their uneven, crown-like spread
- The staring angry face with sharp brow shapes, marked cheeks, and barred clenched teeth

- The puffed side tufts/forms beside the face
- The bulky clenched hands and feet
