(At least 25.)<br/><br/><strong>Physical appearance:</strong> Slim, tall, walks a bit stiff – the last bit may or may not be related to the permanent and formidable bulge at his crotch. Dresses like any typical Wonderland denizen, in very artful rags. His hat is actually a helmet and he will argue the point into the ground. He keeps a lot of keys. His long hair and neat beard are sage green with ginger streaks. Eyes are black, always bloodshot, usually full of tears.   <br/><br/><strong>Domicile:</strong> He haunts the docks by the battered sea. Which is really a river, so why call it anything else? Stop talking nonsense.<br/><br/><strong>Personification:</strong> He lives on stories and trusts his fears. The trouble of it is, a very good story often requires braving the fears. Doors, too. One never knows what's behind a new door but if the key fits... well, you face the lady or the tiger or both or neither. Sometimes one loses things, very important things, but if one gathers enough stories and opens enough doors, perhaps they will be found again. They must be found again.<br/><br/>He is honestly a gentle soul, not wicked by nature, but sometimes the ache of loss does overwhelm one's tender sensibilities. And sometimes it's nearly impossible to extract a good story, if the teller is very dull. And sometimes, one gets a bit peckish. So it's not his fault what happens afterwards. Never his fault. And anyway, it's not polite to bring up these incidents, he'll just start crying again.  <br/><br/><strong>Vices:</strong> Tastes and sounds and smells and stories. Locked doors. Occasional fits of cannibalism.   <br/><br/><strong>Sexual orientation:</strong> Durable. (Pansexual switch.) <br/><br/><strong>Pre-arranged associations:</strong> TBA<br/><br/> </span>
