BASICS
DESCRIPTION
Hans marches to the beat of his own drum, living life a step out of tempo with everybody else. With a head stuck up in the clouds, Hans happily ignores responsibilities and lashes out like a brat out of hell when chastised or disturbed out of his blissful bubble. Compounded with Hans’ inability to understand social norms, he has cultivated a reputation for being an unreliable, childish nuisance to be around. Once you get past her eccentric behavior, Hans is exceedingly sociable and bubbly - acting like a never-tiring joy machine. No matter how dire the situation, Hans always has a joke to crack or a silver lining to find. Depending on your viewpoint, he's either an extreme optimist or just extremely flippant.
Most people wouldn't know he's a positive ball of energy, since Hans is always secluded in the repurposed arcade he calls home, hunched over a graveyard of junked tech. Just like his talent for optimism, Hans has the uncanny ability to engineer something out of nothing. His hacking expertise is nothing to sneeze at either, with the ability to pick electronic locks, tap into security footage, and general technological unsavoriness. She's currently engrossed in working for anonymous hacking group, The Collective, finding security exploits in the systems of social media websites and plundering the private information of the evil, ransoming their sins for sizable prices before anonymously bringing them to light.
Despite all the bad things he’s seen people do behind closed doors; Hans has no choice but to hang on to optimism. In the rare occasion she's out of her little hideout, Hans can usually be seen with his best friend Sylviana, pestering her for money or attention.

TRIVIA
- Specifically, Hans is a hybrid between a White-throated Toucan and an Atlantic Puffin. His mother is German and his father was Chinese. Both of his parents were well-known robotics engineers and computer programers who found themselves in Woodvale after Littleton was destroyed. Eventually both of them moved away, but Hans decided to stay. His mother is the one who built the arcade that Hans manages and lives out of!
- Hans almost never uses anyone's actual names, preferring '''funny''' nicknames - his choice nickname for Daniel is 'divorced loser', despite the consensus that Daniel's wife is dead.
- When Hans is very angry, she might attempt to 'fence' you with her beak. Just hold on to her beak and watch her tire herself out trying to squirm away from your grasp.
- Like real-world toucans, his tail uses a 'ball and socket' joint that allows it to get a wider range of expressive movement. Hans also uses his beak to thermoregulate, and doesn't sweat. In stressful situations, Hans communicates by tapping/clacking his beak wordlessly. Hans also claims that his beak's coloration is at peak vibrancy during 'breeding season', which he claims is 'all the time' with a wink.
- Like real-world puffins, Hans drops all of his feathers all at once to moult, usually sometime in January. He HATES the process and will spend the entire month hiding.
- He is also notorious for crafting mostly-harmless computer worms, mostly for fun. Hans might 'accidentally' infect your computer with one.
- She was a fleeting musical artist for a time, some synths among the junk tech she hoards. Hans hopes to pick it up again as a geniune love of his.
- Hans is convinced he can hear voices in the static. Walking in on him huddled next to an aged TV isn't an uncommon sight.
