Kim Dokja

Kim Dokja is the titular main protagonist of the manhwa and web novel series Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint. Initially, an ordinary man who spent all his childhood to the start of his adulthood reading the web novel "Three Ways to Survive a Ruined World" as the only reader, he acquired newfound powers from the author's account, tls123.
==Appearance==
Dokja is an average-looking Korean man with a slender visage and fair comp 
lexion, characterized by fine, black hair, lengthy eyelashes, and conspicuous dark circles. His demeanor radiates tranquility and vitality, albeit with a hint of sharpness. Notably, his appearance undergoes a substantial metamorphosis between his cheerful and impassive states. As an adult, he maintains a lean physique, initially gaunt but later acquiring muscularity by boosting his Strength stat. The aftermath of the Gigantomachia leaves burn scars and a sun-kissed hue on his skin, with additional scars on his hands and body as testaments to numerous battles. 
The number 6424 is "embroidered" into his left forearm from a period posing as a Removal Slave in the 73rd Demon Realm. Despite his myriad experiences, other characters often perceive Kim Dokja as unremarkable or unattractive, resulting in the acquisition of the Incarnation modifier "Ugliest King." His true appearance remains "censored" for observers, causing distortions on screens and hindering accurate recollections of his features. Lee Jihye herself claimed that her memory does not include of Dokja's appearance. Expressively, he exhibits distinctive habits, such as tilting his head when concerned about children, closing his eyes and twitching eyelids when reminiscing about his mother, playful smiles and raised eyebrows while teasing, and a gleam in his eyes when reflecting on cherished stories.
Notably, his smile, described as "unlucky," becomes a recognizable trait for his companions. During his adolescent years, Kim Dokja was diminutive, often mistaken for an elementary schooler, suggesting potential growth impediments or undernourishment. He adorned a middle school uniform and carried a substantial school bag.
==Personality==
Dokja strives to shield loved ones from peril, assuming their struggles as his own, and tends to be highly self-deprecating when unable to overcome challenges independently. His recurrent self-deprecation manifests as a consistent pattern. Despite his love for others, he harbors deep insecurities, possessing notably low self-esteem and self-worth. 
Kim Dokja, fundamentally devoted and affectionate, sacrifices his own life for those he cherishes, carefully choosing whom to bestow his profound trust upon. 
Initially perceiving himself as perennially alone, he grapples with recognizing genuine care and admiration from others, although he has improved in this aspect over the course of ORV. Once adept at repressing emotions, as noted by Jung Heewon in early scenarios, he now displays heightened emotional expression, such as unrestrained crying and yelling, particularly evident in the epilogues. While typically casual in speech, moments of shock or nervousness prompt a tendency to adopt formal language.
Kim Dokja maintains a degree of self-consciousness about his image and public perception, though less so under a pseudonym. Early on, he feigned ruthlessness, evolving toward an image of politeness and composure, projecting a constant readiness with plans derived from his knowledge of Ways of Survival. 
Despite his meticulous planning, he tends to develop tunnel vision, overlooking external factors that could impact his situation. Improvisation proves challenging, especially as his timeline diverges from the original Ways of Survival, leading to emotional breakdowns in the face of setbacks. Nevertheless, his unwavering dedication to goals is evident as he defies death to reach scenario conclusions, demonstrating occasional bouts of stubbornness and singlemindedness.
== Biography ==
As a child, Dokja was severely abused by his father. One day, his mother had enough and eventually murdered her husband, which would lead to her getting sent to jail and leaving a young Dokja alone. He would get harassed by news people for a long time, while his mother wrote a book on why she committed murder.
In high school, he got severely bullied and did not get into a good college.
