Clothing and Accessories: Stein is often seen in a plain white button up shirt with his collar sticking out. He generally wears brown polyester pants since expects to be out and about in rough wilderness some days and a bustling city the next. The wear and tear is noticeable where mud cakes his pants' cuffs and its seams are loose and slowly coming undone as they crawl up his leg.

He tends to wear heavy boots with thick, worn laces and worn hole ridden soles. He tends to wear grimy gloves riddled with tears and stains too troubling for most of his usual associates to question. As the one who ate the suna suna fruit, he is often cover in bits of sand that tend to build up slowly in the crevices of his clothing. His clothing always possesses a dirty, coarse feeling as a result. When it gets cold, he wears a worn vest which used to have 4 lion-shaped buttons to secure itself around his chest. Now its once bright yellow seams and bronze hue is dulled with a hint of fatigue that seemingly reflects himself.

Description:Stein is a lean fellow who could stand to gain a couple of pounds. His cheeks aren't gaunt, but you can see his pointed jawbones. He generally carries himself with his shoulders out, but his clothing at times reveals how loose they became as he set out on his own. He isn't as well built as he was before, with slight bits of squishiness forming where tone workingman muscles used to reside. His legs are a bit more toned with thick calves from his long treks in the wilderness as he island hops. His skin is pale even in the hot summer months, not even possessing slightest bit of tan anywhere except his face.

Personality: Stein is a busy-body who would view rest as a waste of time if it could be cut out from his schedule. He'll tend to climb over one more hill before taking a breather. Or he'll swing his pickaxe one more time before taking a seat to catch his breath. Time isn't just money to stein, but rather it is a game of inches. The more you cede, the greater the risk you incur to those who have more. That being said, this is when he is alone or doesn't necessarily need to interact with others.

With people he tends to wish he was funnier and more outgoing, but usually falls flat in his conversations. He's very good at talking about business or even things he's interested about. However starting a conversation may as well be moving a mountain and maintaining it at times he feels, is akin to facing a god. Nevertheless, Stein likes interacting with others for fun and finds it necessary, but he stinks at it.

He isn't a man of vice, but rather, he is a man who is always searching for a new summit. He's not content with his current self at any time and finds the challenge of beating others, including himself a necessary evil. He'd say, " No man is perfect. Those who stop growing stop living".  Thus he tends to not stop to smell the roses and sacrifices today for a better tomorrow.

Perhaps the two ways to tempt him are promises women or french fries. However he will never admit these two weaknesses. He finds the fact that his eyes fall toward boobs naturally a sin, although a very sexy one. And his desire to eat french fries an ingrained habit from childhood,but one he wont let go of because they remind him of his family.

In combat Stein tends to first look for an out. He will always scan the environment and take a few extra moments to look around for ways he can escape above all else. This tends to be something he does before even stepping into a building, but he will also do this before making his move since situations change on the fly. After securing his escape route mentally, Stein tends to bring the fight to his opponent depending on the context. If it's simply his own hide on the line, he will sneak around the opponent's flank and go for the head honcho with a cheap shot. However, in a situation such as a pirate, he'll make every precaution necessary to save as many people as possible, even if it means putting himself in harms way.

Whether he's in combat, chatting it up, or doing business, Stiens finds life to be a battle. A desperate struggle for inches. He is always looking for an advantage and to make progress in anything he's doing faster. Sometimes that can put a strain on his relationships, but he never could get over the loss of his family. He thinks his old tendency to relax with them is what lead to their untimely demise. Blaming himself for the work of others since it was his own lack of preparation that gave them the opening to act.
