Hawthorn Rovella
About
"Waste of space, waste of breath, waste of time. Keep on moving."
Growing up in the traveling carnival 'Cirque Requiem', Hawthorn never stayed in one place too long. Being gifted with shadow magic, he learned to control it and have it be part of his act. After escaping the circus life, he found himself in Port Byre. He frequently goes north to the Woods of Byrenonia, seeking solace and a place to train while also slaying enemies that find themselves wandering too close to civilization. Eventually he fell in love, but then through a series of events he would NEVER like to talk about, he was on his own again. ... Oh well. Keep going.
Design
Shadow Stalker
Ever since he was young, Hawthorn was able to control shadows to dance around him and used them frequently for his performances. After getting his new eye and through a lot of training, his shadow has become an extension of himself. Though it's a lot more whimsical and expressive, it is the one thing that will never leave or betray him.
Personality
Hawthorn is a very kind soul, but a hard life has caused him to be very wary of those who are unkind to him and others. One wrong move and he has no reservations about slitting their throat.
Likes
Singing
Finding comfort it in since he was a child, he's always making up little melodies. He never used this skill to make any money and finds comfort in it. He can be found either humming or singing to himself when he's alone.
Henna Tattoos
He finds it's a good way to express himself, constantly giving himself tattoos on his arms and legs. Get close enough to him and he would absolutely love to use you as a canvas as well.
Yoga
Gotta train to move like the shadows he controls.
The Outside
His comfort zone. The sound of the birds, the buzzing of the insects, the feeling of the breeze through the trees... He will never be able to understand the appeal of sitting inside all day.
Dislikes
Cats
Very bad experience. Please keep them as far away as possible.
His Father
Never met him, but has no interest after all the pain thats been caused by him. He could die for all he cares.
Being Ignored
Keep the spotlight off of him, but for the love of god at least PRETEND he exists.
Rude People
Better back up all that bravado with some good punches or their last few seconds are gonna be reaaaaally embarassing.

Unnamed Father
Doesn't consider him anything but his enemy. Continues to have his life ruined by this piece of garbage.
Unnamed Lover
Nothing like the one person you love turning out to be an assassin sent by your father. Though he was the one to slay them, a stupid part of his heart misses them terribly.
Kasumi
A sweetheart through and through. They were able to bond from both being performers and she does enough talking for the both of them. Perfect!
