Distinguishing Characteristics: Blunt, unfriendly, standoffish, hot tempered; old fashioned, clings to tradition, dislikes change such as that brought by mainlanders, and so blames them for most of the Island's problems; looks down on outsiders in general; skilled fighter and hunter, but can act recklessly due to his temper and persistent need to prove himself; after being nominated and chosen as ogimah of his tribe to take the deceased chief's place (a decision that surprised him), has tempered his attitude somewhat, trying to keep more levelheaded, less militaristic, and more open to dealing with outsiders--this is a challenge for him, so he often comes across as rather grudging and irritable
General Appearance: Average height, lean/athletic build; long black hair usually worn in a braid; dark brown eyes; copper skin; several tattoos and scars; serious, unfriendly facial expression; traditional native clothing, usually a deerskin breechcloth, leggings, and moccasins, with copper earrings and various necklaces; wears several feathers in his hair, including one upright eagle feather, denoting various accomplishments
