Rook Golden Eyes
Tumblr media
||Where Rook used to be raised, he was scorned for having an unnatural eye color: gold. The people he grew up around with saw it as an omen for disaster. They saw him as a harbinger of misfortune, a child of a witch who summoned a demon, or worse; an abomination.
People feared and hated his eyes.
Rook learned to ignore their gossips and jeers behind his back. While he is self-conscious about it, he finds the superstition of his eyes valuable. Why, it proves useful in intimidating people if he doesn't want to be bothered or make his opponents (who believes that golden eyes are signs of misfortune) falter. It gives him the upperhand in a fight.
If they don't, then it doesn't matter; a fight is a fight in the end.
In short, Rook doesn't bother to hide his eye color and wears them proudly. He has his moments where he wants to hide his eyes, but he only feels that way when his mood is in the all-time low.
Once his journey through space began, Rook find sit refreshing that no one bats an eye to his eye color. It's a normal eye color, or contacts, on some planets. Other planets may be weary but Rook is quick to leave soon for the next one.
