I'm not so sure about the tasteless part though. Regrettably he has not been consumed by cannibals or tigers, and the occasional mosquito that may or may not have had a nibble (and may or may not have remembered) refused to be interviewed. So we'll go with tasteless on the basis that there is as yet no counter-argument to refute it.
Now then, I understand that many readers like facts about characters so they have something to wrap their imaginations around. If this group includes you, then I offer you the following list so that you can imagine exactly and precisely what I want you to, with absolutely no deviation from my own image whatsoever. After all, isn't that what imagination is all about? Oh, if you don't want to know this stuff, please click "next >" at the bottom of the page and continue to read from there.
Age: Mid-twenties, give or take the approximately three years his parents were largely unaware of him.
Gender: One must assume male, if only because the midwife didn't think “Ralph” was too strange a name. I doubt anyone's checked since. Maybe the midwife never bothered to look either.
Height: About yay-high. Roughly.
Weight: You know, sort of average. Take everyone, divide them by everyone and you have Ralph.
Eye color: As the author I reserve the right to make something up right out of the blue. Blue. Yeah, that'll do.
Hair: Yes, mostly on top of his head. I don't want to know about hair anywhere else, and not really the stuff on his head either, come to that. What's boring? Medium brown? Lanky? Good enough. How is it that only hair gets to be lanky anyway? Lanky just means “straight and flat” but people don't drive across Kansas saying, “Wow, these roads are lanky.”
Alright, that's more than enough of that.
