CHARISMA



Kodan is a melancholic coyote living in the small village of Litus Beach. Despite growing up there, his very presence seems to be a bit of a contentious topic amongst the other residents of Litus. Though they would never say a thing to his face, he seems to be aware of this wariness the other villagers hold towards him. When he isn't working, he opts to spend most of his days lazing around the beach with his childhood friend, Sicilia.

personality


Kodan is a very stoic person. It is virtually impossible to tell how he is feeling at any given moment from his facial expression. Though his constant impassive expression can make him appear intimidating at a first glance he is actually quite caring and very sympathetic towards others, caring deeply not only for his friends, but also for total strangers.

He often is in a state of melancholy, feeling despondent and unmotivated. He tends to interalize his own feelings instead of talking about them, because of this he can often become stuck in his own head with his thoughts. His inability and unwillingness to express his deepest feelings to those he's close to can make him appear emotionally distant.

Though Kodan usually isn't much of a talker, when he does finally speak up he will be very straightforward and truthful with his words and responses. He won't sugarcoat a situation and will be very honest and upfront about how he percieves a situation. He is incredibly responsible and has a deep concern for the safety of others. It is these qualities that often lead his friends to go to him for advice in times of need.


FISHER


As part of his village duties, Kodan is one of Litus' main fishermen. He and Sicilia are mainly tasked on the riverside route for fishing. They will follow this routine daily, usually heading out at the crack of dawn for the best catches.

Kodan mainly specialises in angling, using a line and hook to reel in fish, but he and Sicilia are also quite skilled in trawling. The method of fishing they will use on any given day changes depending on the weather and water conditions at the river that day.

As well as the previous methods of fishing, Kodan also uses a form of cormorant fishing, often being accompanied by his fishing bird companion; Philomena.


Trivia


The hei matau necklace he wears was carved from a shark tooth and worn by his dad before he passed.

He unknowingly weeps when he sleeps. This results in him waking up teary eyed.

Kodan experiences the same nightmare every single night.

He is perfectly fine with going into shallow water, it is only in areas where he cannot touch the ground that his fear begins to creep up.

Kodan's hut is filled with decorations that he has made using the things he collects washed up on shore.

In their evening downtime, Kodan and Sicilia can often be found by the shore with herbal incenses, enjoying the warm late-afternoon glow.


RELATIONSHIPS

SICILIA  [ Childhood best-friend ]

Sicilia and Kodan have been through thick and thin together. She is the only person to consistently stay by Kodan's side throughout the years. She was there for him when his father passed, and the two are seen almost always together. They work together on the fishing route, Sicilia having immediately volunteered for the job after finding out Kodan had been assigned to it.

DUSTY  [ Protective of ]

Dusty and Kodan were quick to bond, Kodan finding himself both amused and intrigued about the various topics Dusty would talk about for hours on end. Dusty's energetic nature seems to be a lot compared to Kodan's usual melancholy, but it seems that his endless happiness is starting to rub off on the coyote.

AVERY  [ Not on the best terms ]

Kodan has tried on many occasions to get through to Avery, however, he seems hellbent on making the coyote feel as unwelcomed as he possibly can. Kodan tries to give him amicable space, but even that doesn't seem like enough for Avery.

LEVY  [ Friends ]

The relationship between Kodan and Levy is a curious one. While Kodan can often be disapproving of Levy's outwardly stubborn actions and decisions, the two still get along fairly well. Despite their different approaches to scenarios, they seem to be very like-minded in the way they view the world and other folk. As much as he tries to offer advice though, she seems opposed to listening.

THE STORY SO FAR...


BACKSTORY

Ranger had previously made an agreement with Kodan's father; should anything happen to him, Ranger was to take over in looking after Kodan. When that fateful day did come around, Ranger found himself taking over those parental responsibilities and continuing to raise Kodan into adulthood.

Since he was just a pup, Kodan has always had a series of misfortunes befalling him. This is something has only continued to carry on throughout his life. While Kodan's father thought Litus beach could be a new start for him and his son, a reputation was gained overtime. It was after Dakota's passing, that the townsfolk had a breaking point, believing Kodan was in fact cursed.

Not wanting anything to do with the misfortune that seems to follow Kodan, the townsfolk began distancing themselves from him. Not wanting to bring harm to the others in Litus, Kodan decides to keep to himself, rarely talking to anyone besides Sicilia and Ranger.


CURRENT WHEREABOUTS

Even though the town treats Kodan in a very standoffish way, he still cares about them, the town is still the community that raised him. He plays an integral role in the town, being one of their main fishers.

Despite being the best in his current work, it took Kodan a long time to find a purpose in the village. He cycled through many jobs, his curse causing him to fail at each and every one. Ranger finally assigned Kodan to fishing as last ditch attempt to find something he could do.

In present he has a daily routine that he will follow to a tee. While the routine is repetitive and mundane, Kodan views it as the only way he can contribute to the village considering the affliction of his curse. He is self-aware of the fact that this job he was assigned is also conveniently the one that takes him the furthest away from the village, but he seems to find comfort in the solitude that it brings so he doesn't entirely mind.
