@bountyman
old west bezi things:
body, dress, and appearance:
between towns and settlements, he prefers to travel barefoot. because of his anatomy, it’s much easier for him to travel that way and makes navigating tricky terrain significantly easier
because his feet look really weird, hell stop and put his boots on if he senses people approaching or he’s almost to a town
his boots are custom made by a trusted friend and he takes real good care of them
his clothes are mostly crafted by various seamstresses
he has a huge leather jacket that he often has balled up on his pack
he mostly wears short sleeved shirts and loose pants
he wears quite various forms of jewelry
the fang and claw necklace he wears is a constant across all universes
he wears a silvery-white bracelet wound many times over his right wrist
he has a leather band on the other wrist
a leather strap hanging from his neck holds a particularly large fang
weapons:
his main weapon is a machete that looks like falcata mixed with a kukri made of red bone. there’s serration on the dull edge
his back ups are various daggers and knives
income and spending habits:
he can sense silver and gold ore veins, and earns a good deal of money sniffing them out
his other main source of income is exhibiting himself at freak shows
he also hires himself out as muscle sometimes, able to do the work of 2 or 3 horses with relative ease and is much easier to direct as well
a good deal of his money is spent on comforts, particularly food and drink, but he also leaves generous tips for traders/barmen/etc who are nice to him, and anonymously donates to the needy
he likes collecting crafts, especially useful ones
hobbies:
because traveling can be dreadfully boring, Bezi carries a couple of hardy books written in Hetran script, as well as a sketchbook which he scribbles in whenever he sees something he particularly likes; nice architecture, beautiful landscape, various people
he tends to sing, or run through cadences, while traveling; he isn’t super appreciative of silence.
hes pretty good at various card games once he has enough time to learn the rules, and can usually figure out when people are trying to con him- his ear for heartbeats helps a lot. sometimes he claims he can smell lies
he’ll whittle if given the chance
skills:
he’s an impressive tracker, able to rely on not only visible tracks but scent as well. to a point, he can even detect fluctuations in temperature. nevermind how good his hearing is
hes quite good at singing, and is able to pick up instruments very quicly once he fiddles with them
not yet cursed by Calsa, he’s very good at cooking and baking
while useless at reading maps, he’s excellent at deciphering where ‘North’ is and recalling terrain
a long seasoned warrior, he is a huge boon in a fight and knows plenty of ways to kill
weaknesses:
on especially bright days, the sun can almost blind him, and can be so bright that it physically hurts to have his eyes exposed
because of this he carries a hat with a brim so broad it’s almost comical
hes fine with camp fires, but large fires especially out of control can make him quite nervous
hes afraid of horses
and guns
he can be prone to overheating if the sun is too bright, too hot, if he needs food/water
hes not always wise and can be a little gullible
gunshots can disorient him or temporarily deafen him
he’s highly allergic to silver, which can skew his senses and is generally a huge- often painful- irritant.
gear:
because there aren’t really any horses who can carry him, and he’s afraid of him, he has to carry all of his gear himself.
he carries a very large backpack with all of his essentials- bed rolls, blankets, cooking utensils and supplies, spare clothes, spare weapons, etc
he takes real good care of the backpack and sometimes pulls out things that should absolutely NEVER fit under there(like the sword he wields that is as tall as he is)
he frequently tucks neat rocks and items in his backpack
he rarely seems hindered by it, but it weighs quite a bit.
it has a weird habit of moving around, and showing up in places where he didn’t leave it
it never seems to be there if anyone tries to loot it
he carries several large waterskins; a man of his size needs them
beliefs:
he doesnt subscribe to any human religion, but he’s VERY respectful of native american religions; he understands them a lot better, and ‘believes’ in them much more than chrstianity/etc
he sometimes sets up shrines to his gods where he travels, and when hes needing that extra dose he usually goes to the local graveyard to get in touch
he’s very sympathetic towards poc, and reacts poorly to racism
he’s often mistaken as non-white himself.... which is technically true; he’s not even human, nor is he from earth
he has a lot of disdain for military folks, especially confederates
hes actually pretty okay with bounty hunters. might be because he’s non-human- the trouble they attract isn’t much trouble for him, and he mostly stays out of trouble
he reacts poorly to bigotry, and will defend people from violence with violence if he needs to
