Carl Savette

Watchful Guardian of the HGO

41

Male

He/him

6'6"

252 lbs.

Muscle shirts, baggy shorts, camo, fancy watch (always), occasional fancy suits

Carl has a very square-looking silhouette: six and a half feet of firm lines and sharp angles, with muscles built up from hobbyistic workouts. He has broad shoulders and a firm, masculine jaw. Small brown eyes offset a large rectangular nose and a wide mouth, all helping to give him quite the intimidation factor. The only thing that disrupts his threatening appearance – quite efficiently at that – is his hair: a golden blond afro. Every hair is always kept perfectly in place, and if you happen to muss it up even the slightest bit, Creator help you.

Nice clothes, sci-fi television, home-cooked meals

Being touched without his permission, wearing shoes, pranks

Not being needed, dying alone, losing touch with reality from too much time manipulation

Cooking, electronics and robotics, hairstyling, weight-lifting

Heterosexual

To someone he doesn't know very well, Carl is cold and forceful, always making sure his voice is heard. Even if you ignore or disobey him, he'll do whatever it takes to ensure his requests are heeded. Among friends and family, Carl warms up readily. He shows a more quiet, subdued side of himself, one that cares deeply for his loved ones and puts the needs of others before his own whenever possible. Feeling useful is important to him; he always makes sure he has a job to do or a goal to move towards. Having a lot on his plate is rarely a problem.

Oversized sledgehammer

Carl does not usually attack unless directly provoked, but when he does decide to fight back, he is able to wield his heavy hammer effortlessly. Though his strikes are slow, even a single hit could prove deadly. He does not use his Time Magic in serious one-on-one combat as a matter of principle, only employing it as a warning or to keep an attacker from reaching something or someone he has been told to guard.

Bodyguard

Carl already had a decent grip on his Time Magic when he was adopted by Alex Relson. All through his life, he's used it to make juggling his multiple hobbies much easier, but it's slowly caught up with him.

Carl's heavy use of his magic has caused him to experience approximately 20 extra years, cumulatively. His age is only an estimate, calculated by regularly comparing the watch on his person with the clock in his room, and he often struggles with whether to keep using his magic, limit himself, or go cold turkey. In the end, he usually decides he'd rather live each moment to the fullest, which means cramming as many "moments" in as he can. He is even attempting to build a Magitech time machine.

"When people call me vain or something similar. So I care about my appearance, is that a crime?"

"Most of my technical skills, especially my cooking and electronics handiwork. I've also heard people admiring my build, which isn't something I mind."

"I have to trust them, but yes. My build means I'm usually the 'big spoon,' but I like that."

"It can be a little messy, but everything I need is always within reach. There's my weightlifting equipment in one corner, some cookbooks in another, and of course, my time machine and all the parts I need for it. There isn't much room for furniture besides my bed and nightstand, but I prefer to work on the floor if I can help it."

"It isn't quite realistic, but my fantasy dream job would be directly serving the Creator. Carrying out her wishes, protecting her, seeing the world as she sees it... I would give up a lot for that opportunity."

"I would undo the damage I've done to my age, dismantle the Soul Guardians, eradicate the Purists, and then... Admittedly, I would create a new enemy who is not a direct threat to me or my loved ones, but who would still threaten harm on the innocent. I might also attempt to bend the rules of Time magic to make my time machine easier to complete."

"I always imagined other people would be surprised about my hobbies, like how someone with such large hands can work with delicate machinery... but most of the time I only get questions about why I don't enjoy disco dancing. Sigh..."

"I... hmm. I wish I was more... emotive, frankly. I've had people tell me I'm too cold, and I hate to come across that way to others."

"Yes, every day. Keeping my figure is important to me."

"How big is the bag? I'd like a dumbbell or two, my hair care materials, basic cooking supplies, and a good science fiction novel. From there, I could manage things like food and shelter on my own."

"I own a pinstripe suit that I pull out of my closet on special occasions. Use cases don't come up often, since my hobbies are strenuous, but there will always be chances. It makes me feel powerful in a different sort of way, so I very much enjoy wearing it."
