Karl's / outcast

• At home: Karl usually doesn't fuss and wears something light, loose, and soft. Pajamas are just the thing. • At school: he typically wore a short-sleeved green shirt—always with the top few buttons undone—along with black trousers, black shoes, and green socks. • And when he went out in the summer, he would most often add a slightly tattered bucket hat. But—it was his favorite one.

• The old red bicycle he rode every day during the summer and early autumn.
• An old brown umbrella with a single patch.

• He hopes to find friends.
• He hopes to recover soon.
• And... that magic exists in this little village..

. • To be honest, the doctors themselves didn't really understand what was wrong with him.
• He had been on a diet for about a year, which is why he was thin.

• You know... Karl used to be a vibrant and cheerful person, but after Veltas abandoned him when he was thirteen, he became more subdued and withdrawn.

• Sensitive, gentle, soft-hearted, vulnerable and defenseless, mysterious, honest, and very observant.
• While others might overlook a tiny beetle in the grass, he would spot it. His mother often called him a "ram" (in the affectionate sense—meaning stubborn) or "Eagle-Eye." Karl could spot a tiny object in the grass even if it blended right in; so, whenever his mother dropped something, she would ask him to find it, saying, "My sweet Eagle-Eye... please find my earring... you'll spot it in no time..."
• Karl is calm and pessimistic, yet he also has a choleric temperament.
• He is constantly sad and quiet, and even seems slightly irritable at times. .• Yet, despite all that sadness, he remained kind.
• Karl was kind to everyone—even those who had mistreated him.

• He is afraid to make friends; after his best friend abandoned him, he feared that if he found a new friend, they would abandon him too.
• Among animals, he fears snakes and large dogs.
• He is afraid of school bullies.
• Karl also had an intense fear of nausea.

• Food preferences: he dislikes mushrooms, sour apples, overly spicy food, and pancakes.
• He dislikes having his hair get tangled.
• He dislikes snakes and spiders. However, as a child, Karl could easily pick up a small house spider (not a pet one) with his bare hand.

• He didn't have any particular hobbies, but he enjoyed drawing from time to time. It didn't always turn out well, and he would get angry with himself, saying, "It turned out so terribly." But then, looking at his creation, he would whisper, "Maybe it's not actually that bad..."
• As for fruit, he loved blueberries and apples (specifically red, sweet ones).
• When it came to sweets, he had a passion for dark, bitter chocolate.
• Almost Karl constantly wanted someone to stroke his hair—he loved it so much. But specifically, he wanted it stroked gently—not having his strands twirled around fingers or tugged at, just simple stroking...
• He is deeply attached to his family; when he is feeling down, he sits beside his mother, looking sad and seeking affection.
• He was deeply attached to his best friend, Veltas, who abandoned him. Karl constantly dreams of the time before the abandonment, when they used to spend time together.
• He liked certain types of weather: rain and fog. Rainy weather was to his liking.
• As for nature, he liked the dense forests.
• He likes the colors green, brown, and black.

• He has a thin, frail build.
• He is 15 years old.
• He is not tall—187 centimeters.
• His foot size is 39 centimeters.
• He has dark, black hair—silky, incredibly soft, straight locks.
• He has lovely green-gray eyes, though lately they have looked sad and calm.
• He has pale, slightly yellowish skin.
