Pint P
Character Sketch: Pint P
​
Pint P is a charming small individual. He has a big smile, beady eyes and protruding ears but his most interesting facial feature is his crooked nose. The reason for his nose being crooked is quite unknown but it is definitely not a result of some accident as Pint is not a risk taker. He was just born that way. he is 5'5 and weighs no more than a large dog (55kg). He has no facial hair apart from a small goatee. Pint has a weird body where a small is too tight and a medium is a little loose, so he usually finds himself wearing things that are a little bigger than him.
Pint is a very crafty guy and enjoys making origami in his free time. He is a big motor head and enjoys observing and sketching different types of automotives. He is an engineering student and is majoring in Information technology.
​
Pint is also a comical guy. He is a very polite and respectful man, like a true gentleman, in public but his true nature as a comic only comes out when he is with his closest friends.
Though he comes across as a very self-assured young guy, he can get nervous quite easily. However, he has made great progress in being more confident than he was in the past.
He doesn't wear a lot of accessories usually but while going out wears a watch, a ring and sometimes a satchel. His go to clothes is usually a sweatshirt and jeans. He also sometimes wears an over shirt.
His biggest personality trait is his indecisive nature which often results in him relying too much on others and going along the flow of the river. This also causes him many problems, especially socially. But at the end of the day, he is just a harmless little fella.
