1. Ever since he was a baby, Barrel has never been far from his two older siblings. He’s always relied on them for support, advice and getting out of trouble, to the point of the trio being a bit codependent on each other. Living on the streets since they were teenagers forced them to be. However now as adults, the trio have separated a bit, going their own ways. Barrel isn’t entirely sure how to do life not following after his siblings, he tends to feel lost and alone without them by his side. 2. Throughout his life Barrel has been referred to as “dumb”, something that as a child he was adamant was not true. As he got older though, Barrel learned the advantages of being seen as dumb, expectations are lower and you can get away with a lot more claiming ignorance. Because of this, he tends to present himself as a bit of an idiot. While he’s not the smartest guy and only has an 8th grade level education, he is very resourceful and clever. 3. Barrel barely acknowledges that his given name is Barret. He has never actually been called that, except his sister messing with him. A large part of it is due to the fact that the trio were abandoned at a children’s home when he was barely one year old, and Barrel refuses to acknowledge a name that was given to him by people who would abandon him. The only reason the name has come up again in his life is his job, apparently when you have a “real” job with taxes and actual paychecks you have to use your “government name”.
