Character Personality: His personality is calm and reserved. He is very motivated, yet a little self-deprecating. He is very analytic, mostly silent, and an objectivist. Though, on the surface he has a think skin, he is actually a caring and hopeful person. While he may be mostly passive, if seeing someone being bullied or unfairly prosecuted, he becomes angry and will pursue these individuals to help them.
Character's Background: Vastile was born on the island of Giants, Elbaf. Vastile's father was a normal human, who had died prior to Vastile being born. Vastile's mother had raised him on Elbaf, but was unable to protect him from the social implications of being a half-giant. As a child on the island Vastile was not accepted in the groups of children, who towered over him. He was hated and was sometimes beaten by the children that he'd try to befriend. The Adult giants were aware of this happening, but were reluctant to stop it, some not caring and others agreeing him the anti-human stance. Vastile would return to his mother often with new bruises and injuries.
Vastile quickly found that he had a talent for invention and music. These two talents, unfortunately, were not highly valued on the island. Things which were important were physical traits, hunting abilities, and combat abilities. Vastile would lock himself in his room and tinker with technology and instruments, while other children his age were off playing hunting games and fighting each other. After being persecuted and condemned for being a Half-Giant, told he was no good at anything that matters, and beaten for it all, he found his own talents and latched on to them.
Many years on the island moved like this. Vastile living a solitary life, surrounded by others whom towered over him, and looked down on him for his size and strange likes, began to think that he was not the one at fault. Vastile, during his middle teens, began to realize that his talents were all that he had. Vastile's passion for invention and music became powered by his need to become better than the rest and show that he was just as good as those who hated him.
Vastile spent many many hours working in his room and it was here that he managed to develop his Boots and Gauntlets. Vastile developed these gadgets with the soul purpose of showing that his talents could defeat those of the other Giants on the island. He began to wear his trademark coat in order to hide his new tools. The day eventually came that some of the giants who had beaten him previously had instigated another incident. The group had surrounded him and tried to do as they had always done, but were beaten instead. Vastile has able to catch them by surprise and using that and the years of built up rage, ended the retinue of avoiding and fearing other giants.
Vastile had developed his personality around being looked down on and hated, but even as he realized that this was not all it had to be, he still kept a hold of those old feelings.
Vastile was 17, when he decided that he needed to leave his island and these hateful giants behind. Vastile took all that he had made and learned in order to create a small ship and sail away. Vastile was on the search for knowledge. He was looking for Ship Blueprints, abandoned factories, and technologies from around the world. To find these new technologies he's robbed, cheated, stolen, and bought everything from mysterious Dials to complex prints.
Vastile found an interesting clutch of information locked away in a long forgotten facility on Karakuri Island. The information he found gave him the knowledge to build his ship. Taking what he found and combining it with his own designs and that of other inventors, he was able to design The High Spirits, his Airship. The technology from the facility and from other incidents have allowed Vastile to prefect his gadgets.
Vastile continues to sail the seas and ride the air currents, coming across new technologies and knowledge, buying or stealing them to add to his library. His quest to become the best inventor the world has ever seen will take him across the world, to discover and learn everything he can.
He keeps his ears open and follows rumors to supposed locations of interest. Someday, he'll herald a new age of discover and learning.
