Gender: selectable between cis man (he/him), cis woman (she/her), and transmasc (they/them)

Background: Roschin has lived in Rizhala all their life, apprenticing to the town guard in the footsteps of their now-older parents. Working their way up the ranks, they gained the attention of Warden Chura and impressed them enough to become one of the commanders of the guard. Nowadays they travel a lot, helping with local problems and recruiting people to join them in Rizhala.

Personality: outgoing, loyal, jovial, resilient

Appearance: mid-height, striking, and muscular, with smile-lines around their eyes and mouth. Loose and limber. Deep brown skin, curly black hair, and brown eyes.

Style: Male and female Roschin wear their hair long; transmasc Roschin wears it shorter and cropped. Transmasc and male Roschin have heavy beards. Their clothing is practical and attractive, with good quality linen shirts dyed with strong bright colours, a padded leather jerkin studded with metal reinforcement, and reinforced waxed-canvas trousers. Their cloak is lined with fur, and its clasp is embossed with the Rizhala town guard insignia.

At their best: warm, inspiring, courageous

At their worst: needling, careless, stubborn

You’ll like Roschin if you like… someone who’ll look out for you, who doesn’t take themself seriously while taking their job and missions very seriously, who’s settled in their role in life (for the moment), who’s a good leader

You’ll like romancing Roschin if you like… someone flirtatious, who will have your back and provide protection, who will boss you around if you’re into it, who may become staunchly loyal to you, with whom you can move fast if you want, who will always make it clear how they feel about you

A song from Roschin’s playlist: Make Me Feel by Janelle Monae (fun fact, there are two songs that literally lay out what Roschin’s about, but they’re so exact that I think they’d constitute spoilers… so here’s a sexy one instead!)
