POST-APO UNIVERSES, BUT CAN BE INTEGRATED INTO SCI-FI, MODERN AND SOMETIMES: FANTASY. 




I want your ugly,
I want your disease.
I want your everything
As long as it's free.

(Lady GaGa - Bad Romance Lyrics)



BACKGROUND

Basic
Ninnec comes from a mighty city of Redwall, where his kind has grown so large and respected, they've became at the same level as humans. And due to their natural talents in keen senses, appraise and any intelligent matter, they've created the grand trading empire. However, since Redwall is somewhat cut from other places with a large desert, they have a hard time establishing trade routes. That is why their governor have chosen a group of humans and ratfolks and have sent them in different countries, to see if they can benefit from trading, and to create a ground for further negotiations.

At least, that's what he tells everyone.

Truth is, however, while the city of Redwall does exist, instead of rallying in times of need, his kind was banished from it into the desert. Masters of survival, ratfolk could live there, having little food, even less water.
Their kind is a result of a genetic experiment that was ought to enhance mental abilities, and, of course, it was tested on rats. With things going terribly wrong after apocalypse hit, rats were left not only with genetically modified brains, but also exposed to any number of chemicals/radiation/whatever, that only sped up their evolution, creating a sentient species of rat humanoids, calling themselves ratfolk.
In time, when trying to create alcohol from the local cacti and aloe, ratfolk alchemists have realized they can make a highly efficient drug from it, that became overwhelmingly popular among caravans of traders, going to Redwall. However, as their numbers grew, they've became less and less happy of living in the desert. Some of their kin, including Ninnec, have taken all they could and went with caravans, travelling, in hopes to find a large stone city with lots of water, where they'd be welcomed, whether due to friendliness of the people, or their secret drug formula.
Ninnec has always been interested in alchemy and science, so making alcohol, drugs and explosives is what he's good at.
He is a daring, dashing and too self-affected to admit it's not true. He will try to get into your pants if you're pretty enough to him and will never admit having problems with certain substances.

Drunk, high, and carrying explosives… what a charming mix!

Natural talents
Very quick, agile and endurable; knows a little bit of science, just enough to make great drugs or dangerous explosives, as well as tinker with some mechanisms.
He has much of rat-like abilities, such as climbing, marathon-like running, seeing UV in the dark (while not being able to see in red light).

Natural flaws
Usually too high to think straight or remember things. He isn't a fighter or sharpshooter: although he can be a decent hand-to-hand combatant, he doesn't know how to use any weapons, and firearms aren't made for his hand or arm shape. His physical looks are often revolting to people, as they hate or scared of rats.

Age
Will change from setting to setting depending on the specie's life span, however, by human standards, Ninnec is quite young: around 30 years of age.

 


PERSONALITY

Basic
Usually very different under the influence of different drugs, but usually he's somewhat secretive, passive-aggressive, but not cruel. He gets easily involved in different affairs, is quite enthusiastic, but, whenever he's high, he suffers from extremely bad memories, and is usually in need of constant reminding.

Likes
As any rodent, he is very avid to food, drink and sex. He likes to eat, and loves to eat tasty food, he's very in for alcohol and drugs and loves women.

Dislikes
Bigotry and stupidity. His intolerance of stupid people makes him little honour, besides, he considers stupid anyone who can't understand him. Which is hard due to his passion to drugs.

Fears
Big people and thugs, gangs, loud noises, violence and blood.

Goals
He forgot.

Psychological condition
Heavy addictions too long to describe.

Sexuality
Ninnec likes women. However, being drunk or high, he might be convinced or forced to try it with a man.

 


APPEARANCE

Basic
Ninnec is an up-standing animal humanoid. Basically, he is a giant up-standing rat. His figure is somewhere in-between of chubby and athletic, as he keeps the rat- barrel-like shape of his torso, while having quite good muscle mass. He can stand as both planigrade and digitigrade creature, and usually stands and walks on his full foot, but runs and jumps as digitigrade one. He is about 1.4 metres (4'8'') tall, and is usually hunched and leans forward, balancing this with massive long tail, however, when he straightens his back, he is almost 1.6 metres (5'3'') high, and goes up to 1.75 metres (5'9'') if straightened and digitigrade. However, he does that only to show off and can't really walk like that for a long period of time.
His fur is black, and skin is dark grey under it, with pink palms, footpads, ears and nose. His ears are pierced, and hands are tattooed with thick ornaments, which are almost unseen, being black on dark-grey skin.
Tattoos


Face
It's a classical rat-like mug, with pinker nose and ears and small black eyes. He has white fluffy whiskers that stick in all directions, yellowish sharp teeth. His muzzle is slightly hooked and nose looks sharp. Ninnec has pieced left ear and usually wears rings of yellow metal, and most of ear tips ripped and damaged. There re a number of scars on his hide and face, but mostly they are covered in fur and unseen.
He speaks with Scottish accent and, besides this, uses some slang and is not too keen with grammar.

Posture and manners
He is hunched and stooping, usually walks in a funny manner, like if he was slightly rolling over. He doesn't have a lot of gestures, but has them very expressive.

Clothes
Anything goes, however, he prefers to cover himself up heavily when going into towns to pretend to be a midget. He has various clothes and armours, and usually is covered with belts and pouches with bombs and acids he uses for self-defence.
