Vico Kostyuk

【 Appearance 】

Never judge a book by it's cover — there's so much beyond what's seen. at first glance, the beast tamer comes off as a scary person due to his privileged height, defined muscles and scratch scars on his face and neck. The grey strands of hair imply that he's either very stressed out or very wise, but Vico would argue that, in reality, his age is just catching up to him. He wears a purple earring on his left ear and a small black hoop on the right ear, which matches perfectly the piercings hiding under layers and layers of hair. The tattoo on his forehead, a black moon, is a mark that all of his "family" used to have, one that now belongs to himself and his friendly beast. Finally, he wears a black cape, as most people who work at the circus do.

【 Personality 】

Vico is soft-hearted, quite guarded and very, extremely shy, not saying much unless he feels like it's absolutely necessary. Despite his harsh tone and deadpan expression, he's passionate, caring and a good listener for those who are in need for a shoulder to cry on. Getting older didn't give him any more confidence in himself, so he lacks the ability of approaching people despite his interest on it. Overall, as his work implies... he finds it easier to deal with creatures that are not human, who are much less complex.
