Infinity Quest is an original work of mine I've been working on and developing for the last 18 years now! If you'd like to read the first book in the series, you can find it here: https://www.amazon.com/Infinity-Quest-Episode-Trial-Fire/dp/B09NV5NYH7/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1640622896&sr=1-1
And of course, one of my favorite things to do is populate the setting with background characters to help show off the lore of the setting!

Bio:

To meet him on the streets of Rouge Nova (humanity's first deep space colony outside of our solar system, and a massive urban environment that leads the way in Cyber-Modding), outside of thinking that they're perhaps a bit more modded than most, many people wouldn't pay him much of a second thought. Born Javan Miguel, Death Mouth is the son of a strict, upper-middle class family, that he keeps loose contact with, due to their overly intrusive nature which often boarder on disregarding his own autonomy as an individual. It is in the few times he's forced to interact with his family that he will acknowledge the name Javan, or replace the mods of his face for one more similar to how his original face would have looked.

Before his modding, Death Mouth had attended an Art College which he soon dropped out of: staying isolated from others and generally uncomfortable around people much as he had during his childhood. Like his childhood self, Death Mouth had always strongly empathized with the monsters of old stories and fables, finding their isolation and out-of-place nature to society relatable in certain ways, as well as the general disdain held for them despite, in his own words, the "(other) characters constantly finding their cave and stealing their stuff, but being the heroes (of those stories)!" Whether it is simply because the monsters in those stories are depicted to have absolute autonomy, or if it is because they exist away from others, Death Mouth finds great inspiration in the monsters of old, and has modeled his appearance accordingly to be a monster of his urban environment.

The whole face and skull area is modded, with the underside is like a TV screen which shows a grainy image of teeth that move whenever he talks, unless he chooses to open his mouth, which reveals a completely modded and Aug'd mouth inside like a shark or dragon's mouth: pointed teeth, gums and tongue black but brilliant in all its colors like an oil slick, and this long pointy prehensile tongue. The mods and augs go all the way from his mouth to his stomach: esophagus, thyroid, metabolism, all which allow him to just randomly eat things that normally a human couldn't

His personality ranges from really laid back and lethargic to intentionally trying to be off putting or macabre towards others, only really developing bonds with those that don't seem bothered by his lazy monster persona. He possesses an oral fixation, enjoying the textures of foods more than the actual taste, and with his anti social/outcast personality and love of the sinister or freaky sorts of fiction, he often attempts to get a rise out of people by eating debris, or simply out of boredom. His friends include Lyief, Tique, and to a lesser extent Ctyxx, with Lyief being his longest held friend, and heavily disapproved of by his family for his equally easy-going mentality. Other relationships tend only to be work related and general at best. It should be noted that Death Mouth interacts with people with profoundly more confidence and frequency than he had beforehand.

Death Mouth and Lyief, when they do hang out, will usually just hang out in run down buildings in unfinished to discontinued building areas, play music together (as Death Mouth enjoys the drums while Lyief plays bass), or travel around the spaceways to popular gathering spots for spacers, merchants, and other Urbos like themselves.
