Description

After days of being swamped by work, school, and unwanted stress, I finally pushed myself to actually get something done! And here it is, a brand new ref sheet to a very very old character I've had. I'm sure for those who've stuck around since my joining days, you'd know him formally as Rockoshak. He used to look like this here: umwak.deviantart.com/art/A-Tho…

I thought it would be nice to redo him and give him a completely brand new everything, ranging from looks, personality, and name and this was the result! His parents are also getting the same treatment so expect to see their refs very soon! 

So let's get to the gist of info: 

Name: Lanu
Age: Around the human equivalent of 19-23 years
Gender: Male
Species: Dulok
Sexual Orientation: Pansexual
Relationship Status: Single
Family: King Podjo (father), Queen/Shaman Chu'Si (mother), King Otaktay (uncle)
Occupation: Prince

Personality: Lanu can be best described as curious and a trouble maker on most occasions. Whenever there is something new afoot, Lanu is always the first who is eager to explore or find out about what is going on; which at times can lead him into trouble with his parents or others he runs into even if his intentions are meant to be harmless. Towards his friends he is incredibly loyal and will go to extremes to make sure they are safe, even if it means lying or going against the laws of his tribe. He'll always keep a secret and a promise if asked to and if asked by another of the situation, he'll try to push himself out of a situation through various lies (though it doesn't always work). He often times speaks out what's on his mind when with friends or alone, usually trying to analyze various situations he comes across or just to break the silence. He can tend to be quite vain at times, often grooming himself excessively and claiming to be one of the most handsome Duloks around, though when boosting out loud he often does this as a joke. Lanu also takes enjoyment in playing games, especially with his friends Lieven and Itzel. However, despite his occasional trouble making, he takes his duties as a prince very seriously and does his best to set a good example to follow after his father's footsteps. If one is able to gain Lanu's trust and respect, they are able to have an ally for life. 

Background Info: Lanu was born as the only child of King Podjo and Queen/Shaman Chu'Si to the Ama' tribe; a Dulok tribe residing close by a river sometime prior to the Imperials making way onto the forest moon of Endor. Being part of the Ama' tribe, Lanu would be exposed to the world of trade quite early in his life as his tribe often traded goods with the nearby Ewok village of Chup. It was through this alliance of trade that Lanu was able to meet one of his closest friends, a young Ewok by the name of Lieven. While the Ama' tribe and Village of Chup were trading partners as they depended on each other to survive on the goods they traded with one another, the Ewoks and Duloks still found themselves in high tensions and rivalries since the day the tribes formed. It was until one day during a Fall Harvest Festival that Lanu would be able to meet the Ewoks for the first time in a public manner, no longer having to be taken away while his mother and father tended to private matters with Ewok elders. Together with his friend Itzel, a young Dulok girl who is the daughter of one of King Podjo's elite guards, the three of them formed a secret friendship that grew into their adult years. 

As Lanu and his friends grew older, the three of them often faced constant challenges of keeping their friendship secret from their tribes and also struggled against the new coming invaders that littered their forests. This made their hide outs and meetings much harder as the forests began to grow more dangerous each day, which also gave rise to new tensions between the two trading tribes. Still, Lanu does his best to balance the secret friendship he has with his Ewok friend and tending to his duties as the future king of the Ama' tribe; leading into new adventures each day for the young prince and his friends.

Quick Facts: 

-While Lanu and Itzel have been friends since they were toddlers, they are not boyfriend and girlfriend. Still, because the two hang out so much during their time in their village, they are often mistaken for a couple. This kind of misinformation often draws aggravation from the both of them, especially when talks of a future marriage may be in store for the two of them.
-Despite being the son of the village Shaman, Lanu has not been trained under his mother's abilities to conjure magic nor be able to learn it as he never took interest into doing so. His mother finds no problem in this ordeal.
-On occasions when alone, Lanu enjoys to sing and does so quite well. The only ones who've ever heard him singing are Itzel and Lieven, the only audience members he'll allow to listen.
-He also loves to keep himself clean and smelling good, taking at least two baths a day to maintain a clean look.
-Lanu also puts red paint in his hair to keep it from matting and getting easily tangled, which is often washed out after his baths. 

So that's all I have for now, but I might update his info as the story for him progresses more and more! More characters involved in this story will be linked and added in refs soon!
