Iouri Mostic

Miner | Excavator | Mole Cricket | ???

Quiet and methodical. Organisation is a precedent, tone and manner of speech equating and resulting in a sturdy tactfulness. Rarely voices his anger: it is seen as better to complain to an empty room than to anyone else. Because of this reluctance, being demeaned and pushed aside is occasional, which is not usually forgotten. A lenient temperment is inherent, complications not often viewed from a pessimistic angle. Has a forward perspective rather than a reflective sort typically, fact recalled unconsciously and often built off of.

History

A miner by trade.

It can be said, accurately, that his family has a history in that practice, which he is currently upholding through his own interests further.

A younger figure generationally, he is one of several of his family currently pursing both traditional and progressive occupations.

Considerably learned regarding geological factors: and is not opposed to reading about new breakthroughs in related fields.

Plans to keep to his current field for at least a few years, despite the complications that occasionally arise.

Trivia

Has an interest in quartz and other minerals, often stopping to note the quality of relevant encountered stones.

Keeps odd rocks he finds amid the stone meant for sale. Tourmaline and uvite are highly valued.

Owns various shovels, picks, and other tools meant for excavation.

Often takes along multiple tools in a knapsack while working, along with food and water; which helps with endurance.

Small but stronger than he appears.

More composed than apparent. However will slap someone picking him up.

Stands about 20 cm in height. Female counterparts are generally taller, which is an indicator by those aware of relevant morphology that he is definitely male.

He is not married and is not looking for a relationship evidently.

Capable of stridulations. The sound is occasional while he is mining, and otherwise frequent when he wants to make his location known. It is loud in volume, about 3.5 kHz or higher. When long in duration, evident vibrations occur in the surrounding terrain.

Can fly. Normally does not attempt to, as that that can pose a risk.

Sometimes goes to the nearby town for tool replacements, whether by himself or not.

Stores food purchased whenever returning from a relay, the journey a relative one.

Becomes irked when others take things from his stockpile but his fumes are silent.

On occasion forgets to lock the door to his residence, meaning this is a repeating occurrence.

His best friend is a badger.

The other technically stands far over him, but there is no overall conflict regarding scale.

Used to travel frequently, although this has been postponed with a focus instead on his current vocation.

Still has writings from that timeframe stored away within his personal inventory, but has not looked at them for a while due to a lack of time.

References places he has been on occasion regardless.
