I decided to do Carel's character reference in digital art. It came out more or less. I will do it again a year later once I improve my digital art skills. In the meantime, I will do the digital versions of the previous references before I make new ones. Nina is the next one.
Name: Carel Age: 24 Gender: Male Orientation: Straight Personality: Introverted yet civil and friendly. He's very hard working, but he likes to work at his own pace when the stakes are low. He's a bit lazier at home than at work where he engages in random hobbies. He's open to new experiences with the right push. He has a short temper, but he can keep it in check in public and only shows it on private through constructive methods. He's a martial arts fan, but years of studying prevented him from pursuing his interest as much as he wanted so he only knows basic techniques in different styles. He wants to break out of his shell, which he attempts to do so by doing business meetings that allow him to go to different places and try stuff he always wanted to do but couldn't do because of a lifetime of studying. He's a bit shy around ladies, especially when they take the initiative around him, but can follow their lead if properly motivated. He hates being underestimated or patronized and this motivates him to prove people wrong. Fighting Style: Brawling with a basic mix of boxing, pro-wrestling, karate, and Brazilian jujutsu. He occasionally adds moves from other styles with mixed results. Fetish: Foot fetish and this also goes to paws, talons, and hooves. A guilty pleasure, Carel doesn't mind getting kicked, stomped, trampled, or otherwise abused by the lower extremities of a female if he gets to enjoy them. He loves to kiss them, lick them, and worship them, even more if the feeling is mutual. Background: Carel lived a regular boring life with his family, but always felt a sense of emptiness at how boring it was. Despite being a smart student who skipped grades, Carel never got himself enjoying life as much as he wanted. Eventually he got a Master Degree in Biology, which he used to open a gym with some help from his father and older brother. Now that he has a gym, Carel travels around the city enrolling in other gyms to figure out how to train his clients, but to have fun for the first time in years. Trivia: His gym has the standard equipment, sports, and a spa with professional masseuses personally suggested by his brother. While he doesn't have much technique in his individual fighting style, he does possess good fighting instincts, such as breaking his opponent's rhythm by switching styles and postures. He has autism (Aspergers to be exact) but very few people notice this. He doesn't seem to mind or care about the condition as he hates being defined by it, hence why he avoids mentioning it unless the situation demands it, such as taking too long with explaining something on the phone. He learned most of his social skills through trial and error as a child and by observation, but wants more social experience despite getting along with most people.
