Appearance[]

Rohan is a slim young man of average height. His hair is styled in a slicked-sideways undercut. He has a well-sculpted face with sharp cheekbones and delicate eyebrows. Rohan wears a headband that is jagged on both sides and sits on his crown. He also always wears dangly earrings that have manga pen tips at the ends.

Personality[]

Rohan, much like his main timeline counterpart, has been shown to be active, artistic and observant. He is very much a recluse who enjoys his alone time. Money doesn't seem to be an object to him, and he prefers to spend his time keeping active, such as swimming in a pool. He also continues his work as the mangaka of Pink Dark Boy. He is an avid reader, and quite the sleuth, seeming to have an interest in volcanologyW, possessing many cooled lava rocks and images and maps of volcanoes. He is seemingly a dog person, preferring the company of a dog over that of a cat. He is also observant as he immediately notices a stray on his property and senses when something is off, even if he hasn't seen or heard anything. As a professional mangaka, his art style is considered enough for Jodio Joestar to commit breaking and entering just to see. He also seems to know a little bit about everything, coming across as a polymathW.
