Physical Description

Hes just below average height, for a Halfing, at 2'10ft but with his hunched over figure he looks even smaller apperaing around 2ft from a glance. He's skinny, even for a Swift-Leaf, after years of malnourishment he's bearly pushing 10kg soaking wet.

Facial Features

He has a bad scar on the left side of his face, missing that ear and a bunch of teeth with the skin between being heavily scared.

Physical quirks

Hes often hunched in on himself making himself as small as possible. Mixed with twitches and jerky movements, filthy personal hygiene and a tendency to cover all his skin, hes been mistaken for a Goblin more than once.

Apparel & Accessories

He wears battered and worn clothing, covered in patches, that leaves little skin on show. To top this off he wears a small humanoid Skull face atop his own face.

Mentality

Personal history

He had an average Swift-Leaf Halfling village life for 25 years. At age 25 he was possessed by a Devil/Demonic being only for a couple of days at most but it was long enough …
It was long enough to ruin his life and to end the lives of so many of the people he'd grown up amongst. In the end only a few people were left alive after the slaughter and when Colin came too he didn't wait, didn't explain he just ran.
 
Colin ran far away, not stopping until he physically couldn't go further. Ending up in Yoten territory where he lived in isolation deep in a forest, slowly... very slowly learning to survive by himself.
 
He stayed in his isolation until he found Bonnie a tiny boar piglet that he chose to raise, ending his isolation after 97 years.
 
Before Bonnie he had mostly found resources that couldn't be found naturally by burgling the different settlements of the edge of his forest but after he found Bennie he couldn't risk being caught anymore she depended on him, so he had to earn the money to pay for them instead.
 
He started doing jobs which is how he found his way to the temple where he met Linran Noble and Yotenblood guard that were to someday become his traveling companions. Doing odd jobs and hunting for the temple for 3 years with Bonnie before his side, until she died protecting him.
 
She had died on a hunt he'd thought would be easy, killing some beast that had been pestering people traveling to and from the temple. But it hadn't been just one beast it had been a pair … he'd been caught by surprise, been losing the fight badly, his face torn open. He'd commanded Bonnie to go save herself but she was too damn loyal, she saved him and took down that second beast but had died doing so. He healed down an ear and a couple more teeth but hadn't cared, didn't care that the temple owed him either, no he had just sunk back into the forest.
 
All he wanted was Bonnie back and he is gonna get her back.

He was educated along side the other children of his hometown, he was never the best nor the worst student.

He helped his parents run their shop before ... What happened, happened. After that hes mostly gotten by on theft, hunting and odd jobs.
