Name: Keith Alabaster
Age: 29
Gender: Male
Appearance: alexandrite-rose.deviantart.com/art/Keith-Reference-425721748
Personality: Keith is a relaxed sort of guy, but he doesn't have much of a filter when it comes to his language. He says what he wants and does what he feels like doing, which is why he chose the life of a tattoo artist. As a boss at the tattoo shop he's very chill and reasonable with his employees. However, he gives off an air about him that demands respect to others at times. To people that don't know him, Keith can come across as a lazy bastard, but he's ultimately a good guy that'll do what he can for his customers and employees.
History: Keith was born to Tony and Nicole Alabaster in a middle class neighborhood outside of Hatsu Itonami. He had grown up admiring his parents' tattoos, and had wanted to be a tattoo artist from a young age because of it.
When he was 15 Keith tried stealing some equipment from the local tattoo shop, getting caught just two blocks down the road and was taken back to the shop to answer to the owner. Instead of calling the police, he decided to take the guy under his wing and make him an apprentice if he wanted to learn so bad. For the first two years Keith cleaned the shop and would carefully watch and take notes during appointments as his mentor(not boss, Keith wasn't getting paid) would ink their customers. Eventually Keith was made a actual employee at 18 and started helping with piercing and occassional tattoos.
By the time he was 20 years old Keith packed up and left town to travel and learn more about tattooing. He finally settled in Hatsu Itonami, scraping up the money to rent a space to do what he loved best. Along the way he met both Eva and Frankie, gaining his first loyal customer and first employee within one week of the shop being open. It's not the best paying job in the world, but to this day Keith firmly believes in his old mentor's saying: "If you love it, then don't listen to anyone else. It's your way of living and no one can take that away."
