General Nature: Tuani is a warm, grounding presence in the community. He’s deeply in tune with spirituality, always wearing layers of beaded necklaces, crystal rings, and an assortment of funky scarves draped over his retro outfits. He has big, expressive eyes that make him look like he’s always on the verge of a deep revelation—or spilling some tea. Though not overtly flamboyant, his femininity is natural and effortless. His voice is soft but assured, the kind that makes people stop and listen.
Backstory: Tuani grew up in a turbulent household where he never truly felt seen. He found solace in spirituality, diving deep into esoteric knowledge, meditation, and healing practices as a means of self-preservation. Over time, his pain became his power, and he dedicated himself to helping others heal too. He doesn’t force his beliefs on anyone, but if someone is struggling, he’ll gently drop a piece of wisdom that sticks with them forever.
How He Knows Auntie Bev: Tuani and Auntie Bev are kindred spirits. They met years ago at a community herbalism workshop, and their bond was instant. They often host spiritual and healing sessions together, blending herbal medicine with energy work. If Auntie Bev is the heart of the community, Tuani is the soul.
How He Knows Taj & Tomi: Taj and Tomi grew up around Tuani and see him as a mentor in their own way. He’s the person they go to for clarity, whether they admit it or not. Tuani loves to tease them, especially when they’re lost in their own drama. He’ll just drop a cryptic line, sip his tea, and leave them to figure it out.
Vocal Style: Soft but powerful. Every word feels intentional. He doesn’t raise his voice, but somehow, people always hear him. He’ll pause for dramatic effect, making his words feel like ancient wisdom—even when he’s just talking about his favorite thrift store.
