Kay’s dad
Role in Story: Antagonist for the first half of Arc 1.
Occupation: Recently made redundant from a mindless city council role.
Physical Description: He’s a rodentia - mouse-like, in other words. Furry. Cute ears.
Personality: He’s nothing like his cute appearance. He’s violent, abusive, short tempered.
Habits/Mannerisms: Blames everything and everybody for his own problems and shortcomings. Especially blames Kay for halting his career/prospects.
Background: Bullied as a child (as were many rodentia), always found it hard to be taken seriously in the workplace. Subservient at work, but his home is his castle - and he rules it with an iron fist.
Internal Conflicts: Always wanted to be more. Thought having a son would also give him a future. Instead he had a squamata girl. Feels like everything always goes wrong. Life is unfair.
External Conflicts: Can’t hold down a job. Abusive relationship with his wife.
Notes: Most rodentia have no particular unique skills.
