Asera Ronan Character Reference
Asera Ronan
♍︎ - INFJ - Protagonist
Asera is an introverted and anxious TEFL teacher who came to Japan in March (three months prior to the first chapter).
While best known for his anxious nature, he's also a very supportive and honest friend.
He's the kind of guy who knows exactly what to say when you need to hear it, but he can be closer to blunt than honest sometimes.

Character Facts
• Most of his clothing was given to him by his older brother, who is considerably taller than him
• Believes breakfast is the superior meal of the day
• Went to college to be a biological illustrator. He used to go out to the woods and draw the insects, plants, and animals he saw when he was a kid. (He also knows a bit about bugs and animals because of this)
• Extremely good at crane machine games.
• Michi was the one who put his hair up. He refuses to take it down.
• Always picks a tall elf character in online games
• His dominant hand is his right, but he uses his left specifically for his phone
• Has an old, chubby grey cat named Oswald
Design Facts
• Only owns three pairs of shoes: A pair of black converse, a pair of black doc martens, and a pair of 3-4 inch heeled boots (so he can be taller)
• His height ends at Michi's chin, specifically so she could rest her head on his
• His eye color is Michi's skin color.
• He has never been drawn with an eyelid line. His eyes are upturned.
• His face shape is a capital letter D
• His hair color is technically pink, but KHUx -- the game I made him in initially -- changed some pink hairstyles to an oranger color. I usually tell people his hair is peach to avoid confusion, but if you give him more pink or orange hair, you're correct
• "Asera Ronan" means lucky little seal or lucky oath

Asera and Michi are bonded together as faders, meaning that they are soulmates -- connected to and perfectly complementing each other -- with magical abilities, such as seeing supernatural phenomena and healing each other via touch.
Asera has only been in one romantic relationship that lasted ten months. He is currently uninterested in pursuing a romantic relationship and extremely uncomfortable with anyone showing romantic interest in him.
(Note: Any artwork drawn by me depicting Michi and Asera in romantic contexts should be interpreted as fan art, not canon.)
