Martin Maker

Full name: Martin maker

Appearance; Martin presents himself in a neat, vintage-inspired outfit that reflects his orderly nature. He wears a collared shirt paired with a patterned vest, fastened cleanly and always well-kept, along with tailored trousers that fall straight and structured. A small bow tie sits at his collar, adding a subtle sense of formality. His sleeves are often rolled just enough to be practical—revealing faint scratch marks along his forearms, the result of being far too affectionate with his white cat, Pillow. He typically wears a flatcap that shadows his expression slightly, giving him a perpetually serious look, even at rest.

Personality

Martin is a no-nonsense, business-first individual. He is stoic, reserved, and highly efficient, preferring clear transactions over casual conversation. Small talk irritates him, and he has little patience for time-wasters or unserious customers. Despite this, he values fairness deeply—he will never cheat or mislead in a trade. Once someone earns his respect, he becomes dependable and quietly loyal.

Though outwardly strict, Martin has a soft spot that only a select few ever see—most notably his white, very spoiled cat, Pillow. Around her, his rigid demeanor softens, revealing a gentler, more affectionate side that he would never admit to publicly.
