Character name: Kenji Mori
Character age: 28
Physical description of your character:
An agile able-bodied man. a tall chiseled acrobatic build with sleek hooded eyes. Jet black hair tied back in a warrior’s knot. a light stubble adds a raw masculinity softened by sharp classic Lochhiem features—high cheekbones, a strong jawline, and dark observant eyes. A small jade pendant rests against his broad chest—his connection to his Ancestors and homeland. Kenji's deep gaze is unwavering, like the depths of an ancient forest. His rustic kimono, weathered and worn, fits snugly over his powerful physique. Despite his rough exterior, Kenji carries a calm, contemplative demeanor, embodying an honorable quiet strength.
Notable personality traits or skills:
Kenji is deeply introspective, a man of few words... his physical work defines him, but it is his quiet, contemplative nature that makes him stand out. Kenji finds peace in the simplicity of his work and in the solitude of nature. He approaches each task—whether it be chopping wood, sculpting stone, or brewing tea—with great reverence and care. Kenji has a strong sense of honor and duty, much like a samurai, but he shows his discipline through his craft rather than through battle.
Where is your character coming from? (write a short paragraph about your character’s background before jail): LOCHHIEM— Castor’s Smile—
Born and bred in Lochhiem's woods, harbours, and waters.
Skilled in the art of Sashimono (traditional Lochhiem woodworking)
Sado (traditional Lochhiem tea ceremony)
and Fusui (traditional Lochhiem feng-shui)
Spends his days chopping wood, felling trees, and carving intricate wooden structures. His hands are skilled and calloused, able to craft furniture with the utmost precision. His woodworking extends beyond practical use—he enjoys making small Ancestral sculptures from the wood he collects, capturing the essence of ancient Lochhiem and nature in each piece. Chisels sculptures with a meditative focus, bringing his love of the earth to life through wood and stone.
Dresses simply, preferring heavy rustic clothing that suits his labor but reflects his minimalism and quiet elegance. He wears a plain, well-worn kimono and hakama, the fabric stained by his work in the fields and forests. His clothing is practical but carries subtle signs of his artistry—small details like wooden buttons or hand-carved tools strapped to his waist. Around his neck, he wears a small, simple jade pendant as his only decoration.
How did your character find themselves in jail awaiting trial? (Please write a few short paragraphs describing what poor luck brought your character to this point in their life):
Business was slow. The whole shipyard was quieter than last season. Old Lochhiem dying away for the new melting pot of industrialization. Kenji a traditionalist.. resisting change and ultimately refusing defeat..
Unable to accept losing his Grandfather’s small traditional woodworking shop. A shrine to old Lochhiem in all its carefully carved zen minimalism. He did some decent work at shipyards and then aboard a ship or two. The last ship he worked for was connected with the Lochhiem mafia carrying some illegal cargo and was busted. Kenji was arrested albeit “innocent” along with the rest of the crew. Many of them were unaware of the hidden drug cartel aboard. The crew was found guilty and all shipped off to the Black Keep. His shop never to be seen again. . .
