about ethan

Biography
ethan has decided to shun the modern world and live in a shack in the middle of the North American wilderness, which he built with his own two hands. Here he can concentrate on what's important in his life and discover new flavours with home-grown vegetables and herbs. Here he became a legend. On a quiet night, and if you listen real hard, they say you can hear warbling a fine ditty of a tune with his old guitar and melodica. Now and again he still wonders into town, if you see a man his head a fiery red and his beard supreme to the last hair majestically smoking a small pipe, just dip your hat and greet him kindly for Ethan is content. If Ethan could be a fictional character he would be a Slime for Dragon Quest - I don't know why.
