Guy has always been weird. This is just a fact of life. Before the Blight Bloom led him to Vhintl, he was ostracized from the other Keatons— not for any especially concrete reason, but merely for being weird, in a way that the people around him found to be unpalatable. He struggled to understand others’ expectations of him, struggled to find his place in the world, and struggled to be understood in turn by those he shared a burrow with.

As the years ticked by, his family and friends expected him to eventually find a mate, and potentially, even, to leave the burrow for one of the others in the nearby cluster of dens. Some even hoped those journeys would swiftly rid them of Guy’s inconvenient presence. It was no surprise, then, that when the Blood Moon brought them out of their dens and towards the still-standing Vhintl, Guy jumped at the chance not only to prove himself to be more than the black Bokoblin of the family, but to escape the suffocating desires of the Keatons he grew up with.

It was there that he met Pierre: an abrasive man, yes, but a man who fought fiercely, and who understood what it meant to be cast aside from his community. The two of them fighting together was mere coincidence. The two of them working together, however, was intentional— a show of goodwill between two struggling outcasts, and then of friendship and mutual understanding.

Pierre and Guy’s union as partners is the pinnacle of unusual, but it seems to be working out well for them. Guy lives with Pierre and the rest of their boyfriends at the textile mill near Vhintl’s outskirts, where he’s a real homebody. He’s very skittish and prefers to keep to the folks he knows are safe, but once he opens up, he’s very kind, if not a little scatterbrained and with a one track mind.

Although his ‘day job’ is that at the mill, he has a passion for engineering, and helped design and build their waterwheel alongside Pierre’s ex-girlfriend, Mili. In addition, he helps maintain and upkeep most of the machinery they use in the mill.
