Ten True Facts and a SECRET
1. Loto is a young home-schooled lad born and raised on the frozen tundra that is Southern Antarctica. Even though his intelligence is above average compared to most people, Loto is a very naïve and shy boy. He doesn't know how to deal with or talk to other people since he had never talked to anyone besides his parents when living back at their home base in Antarctica. Upon his arrival in America Loto tried to be more open with local people but in the end he was merely conned out of his money within the first three hours he stood on American soil.
2. Both of Loto's parents are marine biologists who specialize in the study of emperor penguins. His mother is from New Zealand while his father is from Australia. They met in their younger days on a whale watching expedition and have been together ever since. Together they own a small base on the eastern half of the Ross Dependency territory. Needless to say Loto was born in frigid temperatures and has lived on that base his entire life up until he left to America to achieve his dreams.
3. Growing up Loto usually felt very lonely because his parents were always busy with their research and didn't have much time for him. With not much else to do little Loto would go out and explore the vast tundra, get lost, and then have to be retrieved by his parents. Little did he know his parents always put a penguin tracker on him before he left the house. Worried about his son Loto's father found him a small radio in order to try and keep him entertained indoors. The radio managed to only receive one station which happened to play comedy skits all day long. Loto became entranced with comedy and soon began to tell his own jokes to whoever would listen, dreaming one day of becoming a comedian himself.
4. However, it seemed the only willing listeners that he had were the emperor penguins. No matter how bad or terrible his jokes were the penguins always seemed to enjoy them (according to Loto). But because no one has ever told Loto how bad his jokes are he still has no clue and thinks he is the funniest thing on the south side of the Arctic. Joke topics include sardines, penguins, ice fishing, etc.
5. When Loto was first born there was something strange about the lad. Coming from an Australian father and a New Zealander mother Loto was born with a very, well, manly appearance. Lots of hair atop his head coming right out of the womb as well as furrowed eyebrows and a very serious face. As he grew older however Loto has managed to keep a lean figure, much to his parents dismay. They say he's going through his pretty boy phase but Loto has his own reasons for keeping up this appearance.
6. Though his brain is full of knowledge of undersea life and survival skills Loto still doesn't understand the normal living conditions of the average American. He also doesn't know what the heck a lot of things are that are normal from everyone else. For example, an elevator to him would be a moving box of death and he will refuse to ride the monstrous thing. But along with his fear of many everyday objects there is also a fascination with others. He “oooh-ed” and “ahhh-ed” at the upright toothpaste dispenser for a good hour after seeing the advertisement play on a passing television.
7. Loto's parents have always wanted him to follow in their foot steps of becoming a marine biologist, but he had other plans for his future. Using the excuse that he wanted to know more about the world before jumping into a career he asked his parents if he could visit America and they kindly obliged. However, his true reason was to slowly rise up in the ranks and become a great comedian. “If you have a dream, then follow it until it you succeed or until it blows up in your face.” is what Loto frequently tells himself.
8. Jumping right into the fray of the big city he landed in New York and tried to audition for every comedy club that he found in the labyrinth that is the big apple. Within the first few hours he was already conned out of all his pocket money and was lucky enough to keep his survival kit, laptop, and sleeping bag. Once he finally reached a comedy club he was immediately turned down after trying to audition.
9. The reason? Well, Loto didn't even get more then a few words out let alone a whole joke and punchline. The poor guy has a mean case of stage fright and will immediately freeze once he's put on the spot. He never knew he had stage fright until he arrived in America but he still doesn't want to let it stop him from continuing his dream of becoming a great comedian. Thinking that he needed to start small and end somewhere big he took out his map and pointed to the first city his finger landed on and it just so happened to be Liberty. He had never heard of it before so it was definitely a good place to start.
10. However there is only one solution that is able to solve Loto's problem. It's goggles. Or anything that will block his vision really. If you can't see them then they can't see you, right? Well that's only one half of the problem solved really. Loto's humor and jokes are still cheesy and terrible after all those years and so he still hopes to get his first stand-up gig in Liberty. He will sometimes use his goggles whenever he gets nervous talking to people or embarrassed as well, he never goes anywhere without them.
SECRET: From a young age Loto has been hairy, and I mean really hairy... Robin Williams hairy. He had to learn how to shave his beard and mustache combo at the age of 7 and has always despised how quickly it grows back. When he was younger he thought it meant that he was growing up too fast and would wake up hoping that he didn't have so much body and facial hair. Nowadays Loto carries a shaving kit with him wherever he goes just in case his 5 o'clock shadow clocks in early. Just for general knowledge Loto shaves everything and even waxes in extreme cases. The only thing that is left unshaven is well... the naughty bits, which are trimmed.
