WARNING ! mentions of drug use . neglect and self-destructive habits below
SUMMARY:
Ungalo is a young man on the shorter side in height and build. Despite his small build, he is a sadistic, violent, and incredibly vulgar individual with a horrible short fuse. He holds a grudge against the world for his circumstances, wishing to plunge it into despair and chaos.He has bad trust issues, he is unstable and hates relying on others for help if he thinks he’s capable. His birth mother was neglectful and had an addiction problem of her own, leaving Ungalo alone for weeks or in and out of shelters or care systems for some points in his life. And eventually he found himself with the wrong crowd in the streets of Florida.He has seen some shit, things usually don’t phase him and his trust issues stem from childhood neglect and his poor situation.Ungalo does care about his mother despite her lack in his life. He kept in some contact with her and doesn't like talking about her. He chooses to distance himself for their relationship and his negative feelings towards her.Ungalo was also an art major, people said he had a gift for illustration and storytelling. He didn't get far with that lifestyle. Ungalo was kicked out of the art and animation program due to rumors of his m*th addiction. He couldn't sell his art, since substance abuse alters the quality and having that on his record with the art program, he'd never make any authentic art sell since he couldn't prove he was a college graduate.Also, the stress of college and the rumor of his addiction spreading and eventually leading to his failure; sent him into a relapse until he finally dropped out, distancing only when the school threated to take actions to send him to some sort of rehab.
bohemian rhapsody
(stand hc's)
Bohemian Rhapsody is able to bring all fictional things to life, though for my portrayal i have some hcs for this stand and how it affects ungalo in general...
Ungalo is able to talk to fictional characters with his stand, even if he does not realize its due to the stand he has full on conversations with characters from books or even ones he created for illustrations, fictional character can also talk to him first on their own. (mainly going on in the background.)
ungalo is also able to bring things he draws to life, but with this- he can't draw "anything" for his stand to work.
things he draws has to have some sort of purpose. from a talking cellphone or a sentient flashlight, he has to draw things that can interact or cartoons of things for the stand to work.
also for the stand to work on things he draws he has to give the drawings a small story for them to come to life, narrating out loud a made up story for the characters' "purpose" or reason they are needed. Or else the stand will not work and they will remain on the paper.

LIKES and DIslikes
Not much brings joy to Ungalo, if it’s not done through substances and risky situations / behaviors.
He loves reptiles; and has one of his own.
Also, he likes drawing, and has taken some classes on illustration in hopes to find a publisher or someone in need of illustration work that would still hire him with his record with the law.
He likes reading sometimes but can't keep focus of the words or anything going on in the books.
He is a fan of disney and likes comic books and can be seen drawing things from them often.
He has a bad temper, a lot of things piss him off but he hates when people nag or complain.
He hates being caught off guard and does get defensive when this happens, also hates being forced into social or romantic interactions, says he'd rather be alone if he could.
He hates being pitied or lied to and frequently has doubts about who to trust.
When it comes to relationships or friendships, he chooses to be a loner- not bothering with meeting new people or getting to know anyone in the fear they might backstab him or rat him out to the police.
He doesn't like going into conversations blindly, not having something he can talk freely and connect with the person about (with no judgement) is a major reason he refuses to go out of his way to meet people.
MENTAL HEALTH : 4/10Ungalo struggles with his mental health, from turning to drugs as some bad coping mechanism- and his already extremely violent and destructive nature.He suffers from depression and paranoia and he is super insensitive and quite rude. Chooses to cut people off quickly and painlessly, in fear they will betray him.PHYSICAL HEATH: 7/10Ungalo has an average build, he is on the shorter side only about 5’6 - 5’7. even if he looks short and dazed most of the time, he can pack a punch if needed.The drugs have taken a toll on his figure for sure, he also has self -destructive tendencies. His face and nose are products of long term drug usage through the nasal cavity (c*cain and other inhalant specific substances)
Before his start with drugs he had a fairly normal appearance, (resembling his brothers in looks and some features.)
| AU: PARIS |
|---|
| Ungalo being a college drop out, he doesn’t really know how he ended up in France. he has no direction or purpose at first, |
| though He does make ends meet and spends his time dealing drugs and getting caught up with doing street art. he does draw- despite being told he is unable to make money off the drawings since his drug problem which is something he still knows about. |
| He can be seen talking to his illustrations or magazines in public. |
| ( He has no idea it's his stand, and blames it on his bad habits. Which only earns him glances.) |
| But Ungalo is hopeful to find an illustrator job or someone in need of an artist for some cash. despite his criminal record that states he was an inmate at some prison in florida for drug charges. |
