Snake is an ambitious, wary, and reserved character. A serious and skilled archer he spends a majority of the time sharpening his skills, and if theyre not busy shooting at pine cones, targets, or hay bales theyre on their feet traveling. They struggle with taking things easy, hardly ever breaking to rest, Mao says they "keep on their feet like a shark swims." meaning his stride is almost constant and almost never stops (atleast thats what he thinks it means). And though its true he doesnt rest nearly as much as he should, its in good faith. Snake's ambitions are driven by a hope for peace, working hard so that everyone else can finally rest in uncertain times. And though he wishes he could constantly work towards his goal, Mao and Toad admittably do make him slow down a bit, maybe for the better.
Snake grew up in peace, which is probably why hes so intent on getting that life back. He had an easy, honest, life before everything happened, as many others did. He grew up in a full home, always full of noise and bickering, he used to hate the noise and snap at his siblings to be quiet, but now all the yelling and talking is almost nostalgic to him. His life was gentle to him, he helped around his family's buisness of traveling merchants, going from town to town selling the crops they grew or the tools they made, but that peacefullness had long left him, his family had to prioritize their survival over living kind lives. He left to travel on his own, promising that he'd only ever return when he'd settled the matter.
