GENERAL INFO

Name: Rolando Bloch aka Rolo
Age: 25
Birthday: November 20
Sex | Gender: Male
Race: Talaens
Job: Head Chef
Height | Weight : 152.4 cm | 50 kgs

Personality: Docile | Dutiful | Relaxed | Selfish | Snarky | Territorial

His docile personality comes into work, no one will see him complain or make stupid comments when he’s on-duty, often completing all the tasks that are expected to him and is very professional when communicating with his bosses or fellow co-workers.
When off-duty though, he turns from a decent being to a gigantic swamp lizard of garbage. Complaining about this and that, making snarky remarks or just being lazy--er, too relaxed--in general. He lives by the saying, “What stays at work, stays at work.”
His own reasons for staying at the Inn-now-Cafe is purely for his own satisfaction. He does the things that he does because he wants to do it and will stop it if he's not interested anymore. So there will be times that whenever he keeps pestering you with his stupidity shenanigans he will just slow down, stop, and then leave you be. He’s protective and might come out as a distrusting, sarcastic, jerk to anyone he deems suspicious. It takes a lot to anger him though and will often back down as fast as his snarky remarks come out of his mouth.
This is a selfish croco that needs rehabilitation and community work for 40 years to set him straight to the white path.

BIOGRAPHY

"Aye, somewhere out there in Ventis lies my birth town. Where exactly? Hmmmm.... near a river, snark." Rolo laughs, unbeknownst to everyone that deep down, he actually forgot, so he tried to play it cool lol.

Rolando grew up in a community dominated by Talaens, most of them being 'crocodiles/alligators' as mortals would say. They lived near to a river, where most of their resources come from. At an early age, he was taught that all of the other species, especially the mortals, were to be hated and scorn. For it was the Mortals who first waged the war, and destroyed the peace that the gods have given them.

"Respect your brethren, but be cautious of other races. That's what ma and pops told me."

He spent most of his younger years in talaen-quality peace, in fact, he spent living so much on that peace that he became more of a freeloader than anything really his family decided to sent him to their relatives, worried that he'll grow up without being able to 'lift his jaws' (their way of saying that one is submissive, unable to fight for itself, kara what are you doing making up phrases out of nowhere). So at the age of 10, he left his family and moved to Astrid.

And hello culture shock-- somewhat

It took him a year or two to get settled into the town. He worked first as a sweeper and shopkeeper for his relative's general store. Though it was a nice change from his birthplace, he finally saw what his family had taught him for so long.

"Now, I'mma tell you that Mortals back then were complete jerks, not just to us or t'others but even with their own fellows.'specially the ol' ones. Snark, those were some nasty close minded prunes I tell ya."

The events of the war were still fresh from people's mind even though it already ended several years ago. Small disputes and arguments would happen every now and then, and the things that would set people off apart from each other are the things that were done subconsciously. Suspicious glances, body language that suggests distrust, gossips, and whatnots. All these things can be seen commonly throughout the town, and Rolo didn't doubt that this was also happening in other places as well. His relatives here advised him to be neutral. So long as no one's provoking them then it wouldn't be their business as to what others do and vice versa. And so he did. In fact, if there's a mastery to that "bystander effect" thing, he probably would have mastered it.

It was also at this time that he met his first talaen (non-alli/croco) friend, Hippolytus Jolin, known as Hippie for short. They became fast friends due to the fact they both share similar interests and hobbies. Though while Rolo is more laid-back and uncaring of the world's problems, Hippie is aggressive, determined to make his goals come to fruition with any means possible to change the world.

"Yeah, that lump of chili should have just joined the army when the war's still goin. Too much vigor placed on the wrong purpose.

...Too bad he was born late."

Hippie is a member of a small gang that terrorizes Mortals at night by destroying or doing vandals on Mortal properties. Their group swear to never forget what the mortals did to their race and that whatever truce everyone holds on to is just a way of slapping all those deaths away. He encouraged Rolo to join him and he stayed for a few years. Within those years, Rolo left his relative's place, found his own garbage swamp home and proceeded to be an active member of the gang. He became wild and ruthless, mocking Mortals and stirring up trouble every now and then.

He began to genuinely think that the Mortal race was beneath them and that they should pay for their crimes to his brethren over and over. He also began to think low of the other races, making the Talaens look superior in his eyes.

During his third year, they were forced to flee to Mers as the town guards have finally caught on to them and destroyed their base, even throwing some of the unlucky members to jail. The group scattered in different directions and only Rolo and Hippie (and some others) found themselves on the outskirts of Mers.

They came across an Inn and decided to take shelter in there for the night. Pretending to be no more than just a group of travelers.

"T'was the first time that I encountered a place like that, normally ya would have some Inns tha're exclusive to their own race. Or a mixed one that 'ven though it caters t'all, biases were still obvious. But naw, this Inn, that a silly ol' man runs, now that's different."

It was the first time he felt welcomed with no prejudice or hidden caution dangling along behind everyone. And he was mildly curious about it.

They left at the first sign of light. The man bid his farewell to them and really, Rolo left that place with unsatisfied curiosity and scoffing at the fact that a place like that will never last long.

Within a few months of staying in Mers, Rolo became bored of the small town. They've been regrouping slowly overtime and just waiting around for anything to happen let his mind to wander on things that shouldn't--like that weirdo Inn.

It was just on a random day and time that he found himself opening the door to that very Inn he scoffed and avoided. Convincing himself that he's just killing time and finding their flaws would erase this mystical image in everyone's (only him lol) mind. So once a week, he would visit the Inn, just observing and searching for anything to point out as evidence that this was all just a farce. But it didn't take long before he started being part of that weird place. With the ol' man and his oddballs for staffs, he finds that the days spent on the nameless Inn was becoming a lot more enjoyable than before. Making him reconsider what has been taught of him and his beliefs.

He begins to spend more time with the folks there, often babysitting Lucas (not really, for all he does is fed the kid with lies and nonsense, then calling them 'facts') or helping out with menial tasks. He almost forgot the life of a gang member, and whenever he's with Hippie and the others, he would talk about the Inn in a fond way.

Hippie and the others didn't like it though. The idea of unity and peace didn't sit well with them. For the grudges they held against the Mortals were far too deep to just bury. It ended up with Rolo and Hippie having a clash. Arguing far more often as the two talaens tried to prove who's right and wrong.

One particular argument caused Hippie to finally break his friendship with Rolo, kicking him out of the gang, and never to be seen again. Rolo didn't saw any of the gang members anymore, and since he has no more reason to stay at Mers, he left the town.

He stayed at the Inn and, when he ran out of money, beg to have a job there. He started working as a cook, eventually establishing his position.

Fast forward to all the dramas and whatnots, we now see a 25 year old reptile talaen who owes 40 years of community service in several parts of Iastramel. I pity all who ends up working with and under him.

Other notes | Miscellaneous:
He refers to himself as a “croc” or a crocodile as a reference to the non-Talaens crocodiles. But he is actually an alligator. It’s also another term he meant for “crook” because of how he was part of a gang once.
He started to say “snark, snark.” at every end of his sentence as a way of trying to annoy Lucas. It then became a permanent habit. Much to his amusement.
He’s very slow in the mornings so he had to get up really early to sunbathe and gain energy to become normal pace for a few hours before the momo opens.
When night arrives, he’s a lot more active and can be all over the place.
He cuts his claws at a certain length, on a certain day, every month.
He has a cactus plant named “Pearl”.
He washes all the kitchen equipment he uses even though it’s already been washed.
He gets cold easily so he always wears warm-clothings.
He’s a lot more of a jerk before discovering the Inn, but has since mellowed down due to time.
He gloats when he’s correct at something
Allergic to Floofs

RELATIONSHIPS

MoeMoea Cafe

Gramps/Old Man: He respects the man to great lengths due to the sheer audacity the gramps had in trying to make a change in the world. Even though he left, Rolo still believes in him and in his ideas and is willing to wait and protect what is left of the man's ‘philosophy’.
Lucas/Kid: He treats the boy like a younger brother. Amused at his every action despite the annoyed tones and complaints he likes to bombard the kid with. Though Lucas has grown older, he would still see him as that snot-nosed kid who seems too gullible for his own good. Snark.
Axel/Boss: How to describe Boss without getting fired? What else can Rolo say other than Axel is very… very… intimidating. Not like gang leader intimidating, but more of an “I can’t read him at all” kind. He makes mental jokes about the Talaen being a sadist, but when it comes to work-ethics, Axel is someone you can use as a role model. But only if it’s about work.
Irenea/Mermaid: He likes fish and seafood in general, but that doesn’t mean he likes (or dislikes) Mermaid. She's an expert at being the straight man to everyone's comedy act, and he would sometimes say something ridiculous in purpose just to see what kind of "logical" reaction she would make. Like a stone fish, this girl acts too old for someone so young and life shouldn't be all about work, work, work ya know? lol
Elijah/E-bun: Oh boi a mortal. Will Hippie be right? Will there be no alliance with mortals or bun-boi to be specific? He ain’t sure, but so far, E seems like a decent person. Amongst other things. He feels like this mortal is too sparkly tho, maybe they should have formed a 1-man butler cafe instead lol
Stefan/Freshie: A magnet, a sly fox, a totally hip and young paw-man who likes to ride motorcycles like a cool bad boy. If mermaid works too much then this freshie plays too much, or so Rolo thinks. But overall, Stefan's a reliable senior staff as well (probably due to the fact that it may have been him and his bike who did 75% of all the flyer advertisements, such effectiveness, would have been a great gang member potential--woops, right, not a part of the gang anymore lol)

Others

Hippolytus/Hippie: His first friend in Mers, a comrade in the Gang, and a brother in everything else. Rolo never heard anything from him ever again and sometimes, the alligator talaen would think about the past, wondering if there could have been a way to salvage that friendship.

Ma & Pops: Somewhere out there in Ventis, lies his hometown, and boi, he's not sure if he should visit them or not. He'll probably get slapped to death by Ma if he ever comes back assuming that Mers Relatives told them of what he had done with his life lol

Uncle T, Auntie M, & Cousin J: His relatives in Mers. They own a general merchandise shop. Whenever a relative travel to Mers, they would stay here and get together with the fam. Like with his parents, Rolo never got to talk with them again after he left to join the gang, but now he sends a letter or two to them once in a while.

Secret Association of Liberating Talaens: (A.k.a. The S.A.L.T. snarksnarkneknasnd) No, the gang didn't have this ridiculous name. It was Rolo's joke title for their gang before due to the fact that most of the members there are filled with angst and salty life. Hippie never fails to scold him for that one though.
