Rahja's appearance shares many features with a gecko. He has a flexible build with a thick hide, a tapered snout, and pads on his hands and feet that make his grip especially tenacious, forcing him to often wear gloves to keep his hands from sticking to everything. His thick scales are darker than a gecko's, however, forest green with a pale underbelly. He also has a thicker, more powerful tail and sharp claws that make for good natural weapons.

Unlike his excitable bandmates, Rahja is calm and easygoing. He's happy to go wherever the flow takes him and has no trouble getting along with just about anyone. He loves attention, but he keeps his standards low; most of the time he's just happy to be included. Long periods of comfortable silence are the norm when hanging out with him. If you prod him for answers, he can be surprisingly insightful into all manner of topics. And he doesn't waste time joking around, either; Rahja says what he means and means what he says. Sure, he'll keep any mean opinions to himself, but when he does speak up, you can always take what he says at face value.
Though Rahja was decent at wielding his tail and claws in combat when he was younger, time spent in Tengoku City has made him rusty. He is slow to act and easily defeated by someone with reasonable fighting ability.
Bassist for Birthday Party
When Rahja was younger, he lived with a clan of fellow reptins in the outskirts of Tengoku City, but he and many others made regular trips further in for the fun of it. Eventually, Rahja decided he preferred the hustle and bustle of the city, with all its new sights and sounds, and moved there permanently. He'll often head back out to his clan to say hi to everyone, especially his parents whom he's quite close with, but Tengoku City is his home as far as he's concerned.
While he loves the more upbeat environment, it was a bit lonely until he saw an online ad for Birthday Party. The band had just gotten started and was seeking auditions for whatever instruments people thought would fit. Rahja had picked up the bass guitar since coming to the city, so he gave it a shot and aced it. Now, he couldn't be happier.
"Nah, it's what opened the wound that bugs me more."
"I love kids, they're all adorable."
"I don't think about that stuff too much. I'm happy where I am."
"Yeah, sometimes you wanna go one way but the world just wants to take you another. Good luck, bad luck, it's whatever, you just gotta learn to roll with the punches."
"I like people who're kinda quiet but really open and honest. Someone that doesn't overload me, but I can trust 'em to be straight with me when they're upset. I don't care about appearance much, but big hips always catch my attention if you get me."
"I'm terrible at singing, actually. I don't have much range, heheh."
"The day I got my guitar 'n' started playing it. Never heard anything like it. That thing changed my life."
"I remember random facts pretty well, but I'm not so hot at people or events. You know those moments when someone runs up to you acting like they know you, but you can't remember them? Yeah, that happens to me a lot."
"A little here and there, yeah. Mostly at parties. I'm a big giggler when I'm drunk."
"I didn't see nothing. I get it, sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. Unless it's from one of my friends, heh. Then I'll confront 'em all quiet and see if I can talk them down."
