2. Background: Born from a well off family, not poverty stricken but certainly not anywhere near wealthy, Malkus had always considered himself blessed to live so comfortably. Sent off to go make something of himself at the age of fifteen he studied under one of the town physicians, immediately taking interest in the world of medical science

Hideous images burned into his eyes every day, dead bodies scattered about the area, swarms of rats. Nothing seemed to work or help. Seen as a monster, a demon sent by the devil to spread his death and decay, the few remaining villagers ran Malkus out of town. He had only tried to help but every lesson he learned seemed to be useless. This is NOTHING like the illnesses he studied. He had gotten in over his head. This was a monster devouring every soul it managed to engulf in its invisible mass. His only way out was to run into the woods, it didn't matter what happened after, he just knew he had to LEAVE. It was that or stay and be burnt to a crisp by the very people he tried to help. He fled into the brush, choosing to take his chances out in the wild

3. Personality: Malkus may come off as a bit awkward occasionally, but he means well. Polite and kind, though easily frightened. After all that time in the woods, alone, you can imagine how cautious/excitable the poor doctor can be. Not very fun if you can’t tell if that’s a wolf in the bushes or stray cat. As far as goals go, Malkus would really just like to make sense of everything in his new surroundings. Surviving would be a nice perk, as well... He usually reacts to new things by trembling and hiding, or observing from a distance, but that might change over time. You can say Malkus is a bit adaptable, enough to have avoided getting eaten by a bear or some forest monster, anyways.
Appearance: A rather tall (6, maybe 6'1") fellow of little less than average width, about as healthy as someone who's lived off of nothing but raw and burnt vegetables could be. Very pale due to the fact that there is close to absolutely no exposed skin on him. On the head rests a wide-brimmed black hat with his face covered in a bird beak-like mask

7. Third person sample: "I’m sorry! Please!" Malkus yelled, doing his best to hold on tightly to his bag as he ran through the woods, hearing the sickly yet rage-filled threats coming from his pursuers: an angry mob comprised of the few remaining villagers not yet taken by the cold claws of death

8. First person sample: [After spending a few minutes cautiously… though groggily crawling out of his newfound bed, our poor doctor seems a bit stunned. Perhaps a bit overwhelmed by his surroundings… Th-This isn’t his absolutely luxurious bed of dirt and leaves…]
“Wh-…Whaar-…”
[Poor fellow doesn’t seem too concerned with how he sounds at the moment. Obviously he means “Where on earth am I? This most certainly is not my humble little camp. Where’s my pile of rocks? I’ve gone through so much to collect those things!” Shake it off Malkus. Wake up!]
“Hello? …Is anyone…there?”
[Other than a few useless little things, it doesn’t seem like anything on this fellow has been stolen from him. And if his captor wanted him dead, there’s no doubt that he’d be dead now…Right?]
“I appreciate the comfortable bed but I really ought to be on my way now! It was a nice rest, at least! I really ought to be going though. I have… E-Erm… I have work that I really must tend to.”
[Lies. What else would you be doing, Malkus? Skipping stones and picking
