    This is amazing! I love the 1800s dapper style so much. He needs a backstory! I think his name could be Charles, Viktor, or Ivan. Let's go with Ivan! He looks like he must have been somewhat rich, so let's say he was robbed and killed by the robber. Now he trudges along the streets in search for his lost treasures, often asking travelers if they may have wandered upon it or know about it. He's a somewhat troubled soul, but quite the story teller! I had lots of fun writing this out and I do hope you enjoy it!
