Appearance
--------------------
His tunic and breeches are very simple, and of earthy colors. A bandana contains his normally wild hair. Along with covering up the tribal tattoos on his torso and arms, this completes the look of a reasonably civilized individual. His earthy-green skin and slightly protruding fangs give away the less accepted half of his ancestry.

Background
--------------------
One day when Tedros is a young man, but not quite an adult, he gets lost in jungles further from his tribe's settlement. He falls into a pit trap set by another tribe and finds none other than a deinonychus at the bottom. At first there is tension, as each thinks they are going to be killed by the other. After some days, they gain trust and help each other out of the pit. From then on, Dejen follows Tedros everywhere. His people take this as a sign and encourage his development as one who keeps the ways of the dinosaurs, and tells the story of the lost island where they all still live in peace and safety away from outside influence.

One of Tedros' parents is a human who once visited his tribe. The one thing his father left him was a small mirror. After he comes of age he ventures to the nearby (failed) colony to take jobs as a guide for merchants and ship captains. He knows the trails through the forest, the routes between nearby islands, and the arrangement of the stars over this region.

He's fascinated by those who've arrived in his peoples' lands, and though his father was a colonizer he still grew up in his tribe and had little exposure until he ventured out with Dejen. Still, he is excited to learn more, and interact with the outside world. People are often intimidated by his presence. there are times he pays into this, but other those close to him know he's a bit of a goof at heart, and a much different person than he lets on.

Tedros is well known amongst the local merchants and ship captains as a reliable guide between the local islands, and for knowing the safest paths on them. He knows fact from rumor when it comes to whispers of exotic dinosaur creatures existing on certain islands. A noble looking to partake in trade of exotic animals in Azure District might seek out his services to drastically cut their search and collection time. Tedros is not exactly excited about such a prospect, being raised to consider them as equal citizens of the lands he came from.
