The winning entries for the mysterious old man character from Devroom Event 3, Type 1 are listed below. Altogether, there were ten winning entries: five from Japan, and five from overseas. Unfortunately, the usernames of the Japanese winners were omitted from the results on Capcom Unity, so they could only be credited by their Kobun numbers.

"I think you'll agree this was probably the easiest type of character to experiment with. By the nature of him being "mysterious," you can really do whatever you want, right? And indeed, all of these submissions portrayed a geezer reeking of mystery. Will that cowardly old man really be able to embark on his first dig? I hope he can stick it out. Let's all cheer him on!"

"How long do you think I've had my license, boy? But I'll tell you one thing, image training really works!"

Though he desires to become a digger, he has never progressed past the rookie level due to his fear of actually entering the ruins. Now he is an old man. Determined to conquer his fear before he dies, he has come to this island to embark on the first and last dig of his life.

"Those ruins are deeply frightening places, after all. I know how he feels. I wonder what kind of adventure he'll have on this 'first and last dig.'"

Baxter

Submitted by Kobun #295
"My clothes are not only functional, but they're super-fashionable! 'Cept, kids today can't seem to appreciate them..."

Supplier of protective gear for diggers. Though highly skilled at his craft, he has a habit of over-complicating his designs. He used to be extremely confident, but now he senses a business crisis and has made it a daily ritual to go for a walk so he can observe young people's clothes.

"Teomo is a diggers' town, so it's a good idea to try and turn their equipment into a fashion statement! Imagining this guy's far-out fashion sense gives us lots of room to expand on the concept."

Bakerly

Submitted by Kobun #3814
"I'm a baker! It even says so in my name... but to be honest, I can't say what I really am now, you know...?"

A true man about town. And yet, he's really just a baker. But he's given off that air of importance ever since he first showed up in town, causing many people to mistake him for a veteran digger. Miraculously , he's now climbed his way up as high as Vice Mayor of Teomo. There are also recent rumors that he's lined up for a sizeable inheritance.

"Some people just have that impressive 'aura' about them, don't they? It's amazing that he's actually become Vice Mayor because of it, not to mention the fact that he's still baking!"

George Nagashi

Submitted by Kobun #2080
"To forget that person
I'll think deeply
Ever so deeply
today...
Ah...
But we mustn't forget
The ancients,
Nay..."

Having written such smash hits as "I Dig You Baby" and "Everything's Ruined," George's crystal-clear countertenor soothes the hearts of other diggers. Height: 7'7".

"It's important to have some kind of therapeutic presence in this town full of gristled diggers! Sounds like he's singing from experience, too."

Tesla Converd

Submitted by Kobun #89
"More gunpowder, me mateys! We have to show up the competition...hey, why the harsh look, kid?"

Once an air pirate, he now lives a life of secrecy in order to hide that fact. He is unmoved by air pirate disturbances, and is the only person in the entire town who expresses a positive opinion towards them. In reality, the townspeople are secretly aware of his past but have accepted him anyway.

"The potential to include other townspeople's reactions in this concept is very intriguing. I wonder what the Bonnes would think of him."

Mark

Submitted by Nightshade (Servbot #621)
"People are interesting. You never know what you'll overhear in town if you actually bother to listen!"

Old Man Mark has always lived in Teomo City as far as anyone recalls. As a man of few words, he can always be spotted by the central plaza at least once per day. People started to nickname him "Teomo's LandMark" because of this. He doesn't open up to anyone. However, people who talk to him know that he holds information about most of the town, its events, and its secrets.

"A living encyclopedia of island history. Be sure to talk to him if you spot him in the game!"

Acha

Submitted by Kyle (Servbot #865)
"I can't help you. I can't help anyone. Why can't you just leave a tired old man in peace?"

Acha doesn't talk much. He prefers to spend his time at the park, just sitting and observing. He is grumpy and unresponsive when approached by Trigger. Neither Trigger nor the player knows, but Acha was once a fearsome pirate, and now feels tremendous regret for his past actions. He has a son, but won't reveal who. He knows Barrell Caskett, but there's bad blood between them. He spends his days in almost complete silence, hoping that someone, anyone, will give him an opportunity to atone for his actions. His sadness is stifling, and the townspeople take notice.

"I'm dying of curiosity about Acha's past. He must've been awfully rambunctious in his air pirate days."

Douglas

Submitted by Antnumbra (Servbot #1942)
"A kid like you shouldn't meddle around in the ruins. Your toys won't save you from the secrets within."

A man full of history as well as mystery, Douglas is the son of a digger from Klickelan Island's early years. He has his eyes set on a legendary item that his father had learned of and plans to obtain it at any cost. He can be spotted in the shadows around the digging sites waiting for a chance to put his plan into action. He is not above bribery and has a number of individuals working for him in secret and waiting for orders.

"Sounds like a scary, tough old man--a good reflection of the original illustration! I wonder what he's up to!"

Sinclair

Submitted by MegaMac (Servbot #695)
"In all of my days, I have come to consider the depth of the ground as distant as the endless, blue sky."

Son of one of the founding fathers of Teomo City, he was born into the excavating business and aided his father in uncovering Klickelan Island's underground ruins. Over the years he succeeded his father in the business after his passing and maintained unearthing even more. Even though he wanted to be a typical digger in his youth, he found satisfaction in actual "digging," which paved the way for the younger adventurers to explore. Presently, he is not as renowned as his father. Some don't realize they're related, but he is content with his life and the island he adores.

"A simple, yet deep quote indeed! I wonder what kind of life he's led..."

Clyde

Submitted by Ryan (Servbot #1624)
"The young folk here got lots of spunk! Makes me wish I was still...uh, erm, ne-never mind. Haha."

He is a former merchant who lived a double life as a pirate known as Clyde the Calamity. However, his name is just an alias. His real name is something he discarded long ago. Although he was young at the time, he had the reputation as the best gunslinger around these parts. However, it wasn't a ferocious foe that got him to give up piracy, but a lovely lady who convinced him to start fresh. Now, he just likes to gaze out at the sea and watch the "young folk" practicing their sharpshooting skills.

"I can just picture him shooting Reaverbots through the head with his pistol! Badass!"
