Heh also yet another NPC [@Punished GN] but this time a member of the temple (discussed with Atom) [hider=Linqian's boss][table][row][cell][h2][b]Andre[color=2e2c2c].[/color]Makoumbou[/b][/h2][/cell][cell][/cell][/row][row][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/mEgTkZh.png[/img] [b]54 | Andre Kihani Makoumbou | He/Him [/b][hr][i]"Don’t even think of trying anything here."[/i][/center][/cell][cell] [b]Description:[/b] [indent]The owner of a relatively popular bar in downtown St Portwell called Le Tournesol, and Linqian’s boss. He’s a middle aged man originally from the Republic of Congo who moved over to the USA as a young man, where he met his wife and settled down in St Portwell. Andre has two sons in their mid twenties, with the youngest still living at home. He grew up with Linqian's mum and kept in contact with her even when they both moved to different countries. Their two families were very close, so when the Hans moved over to the USA he helped them settle. After Linqian and Jinhai’s parents passed he tried to act as an uncle / replacement father figure (with little success - though Henri calls him Uncle Andre). It's thanks to him that Linqian was able to get a job so easily when she came back. Andre joined the Temple sixteen years ago. His youngest son, only six at the time, was horribly ill to the point that he thought he wouldn't be able to save her. After going down every avenue he could, it was a member of the temple that was able to save his son's life. Andre initially joined the temple out of gratitude, offering his services as an adept on the side of running his bar, but quickly grew to like the family atmosphere. It took a bit longer for him to truly believe in it and the religion itself, but now he’s a devout (if understated) follower. He offers a permanent 10% discount for any temple members at his bar, and helps with community outreach. Andre is an amiable, but blunt, man. He doesn’t take any nonsense but he treats his staff and family well, is hard working and takes a very hands on approach with his business where he doesn’t necessarily have to anymore. His bar is popular among workers and tourists (though not so much the youth), well known for its cosy atmosphere and mix of normal pub affair food and Congolese dishes. He does a lot for the community, helping those that need it and often hiring from more vulnerable groups, and is well respected among the other small businesses in the area. He has a very good reputation in the food and drink industry of St Portwell. Andre is a tall man at six-one, often found with a smile on his face - until someone causes trouble. He speaks Kituba and French (with English as his third language), slightly favouring the latter. [/indent] [b]Abstraction:[/B] Adept - [i]Green Lux[/i]. Channeler: his watch [indent][b]Enhanced Senses[/b]: Andre can enhance any of his senses by essentially improving the part of his body used for them - changing his eyes to see further, improving his ears for his hearing, making his skin more sensitive ect. He can enhance multiple senses at once, but the more that are enhanced the more difficult it is to pick out details. [b]Enhanced Strength[/b]: Born from his want to protect his loved ones, Andre can enhance the strength of his own body so he can go above and beyond what should be humanly possible. [b]Self Healing[/b]: Andre can slowly heal himself from wounds, as long as they aren’t deadly. It’s a very slow process. He taught this to Jinhai, who had a higher affinity with the spell than Andre ever did.[/indent] [/cell][/row][/table][/hider]
