Manjiro Sano (Mikey)ⁿ⁹⁸

Age: 24 years Role: Wasteland Tracker, mercenary, and freelance assassin Mental state: Doubtful. Very doubtful.

Manjiro was born after the end of the world, so he never knew blue skies, clean water, or human kindness. He grew up in settlements where the law was simple: kill or be killed. His childhood was a disaster: he learned to shoot before he learned to read, to distrust even in his sleep, and to treat life as a commodity. He's famous for being lightning fast, ruthlessly violent, and cruel when he deems it necessary. The kind of guy who extracts information without remorse and remains unfazed by the sight of blood. He has a dark and horrible sense of humor, responds to everything with aggression, and has a passive misogyny born from the rotten world where he grew up: "the women of the Wasteland only cause problems," he often grumbles, although in reality it is fear disguised as machismo.

Appearance

His blond hair is almost white, dirty, and cut with a knife. His eyes are dark, tired, and sharp. His skin is covered in scars, burns, and sunspots. He wears a patched leather jacket, steel boots, old gloves, and carries a modified rifle that looks like it was made from junk… but it shoots better than any factory-made weapon.

Personality

Cynical, harsh, violent. He doesn't trust anyone. He doesn't ask for names. He doesn't save people just for the sake of it. His moral compass is flexible: he does whatever is necessary to survive. He lies easily, threatens with every breath, and possesses that macabre calmness that only those who have seen too many die have. But—deep, deep down—he has a protective instinct buried beneath layers of rage and dust. An instinct he hates.

Brutally accurate shooter.
