Skinman

==Description==
Skinman is a fictional character set in the fictional Skin Man Universe where he is depicted as an average (usually) Caucasian Male with varying physical features, but retains the skin covering his face, and his occasional Arabic speaking. Skinman is the main character of the Skin Man Books. In many ways, he is the face, or lack thereof, of the Skin Man Universe in its entirety, though he himself is not necessarily in every story.
== Backstory ==
Skinman's early life is of sparse understanding. All that is known is he was born January 7th, 1392, in a mysterious place known as "Jerryland", and it's suspected he lived a relatively normal life as a normal man with a face that doesn’t sometimes speak Arabic. Records of people resembling the nature and bland features of Skinman are found all around Europe, from Norway to Türkiye, to Italy, to Spain, raging from the early 1400s to the mid-1600s. But the first concrete records are found from an unlabeled British ship going to America in the late 1600s, with two passengers boarding together, one under the name "Skinman" and another whose name has been scratched from the records.
Notable records first start sometime in the 1970s-1980s when Skinman first started dating his chemistry teacher, Walter White, before breaking up with him sometime later. He'd go on to have a child with a woman by the name of Momther T, this child's name was Brad T. What exactly Skinman and Momther T's relationship was is currently unknown, but they are no longer seen together. In the 2000s, it is believed Skinman first developed a crush on Jack Black, as he began to become popular at this time, though there are records of interest throughout the 1980s and 1990s, some have even posited this is why he broke up with Walter White.
It's in late 2001 when Skinman becomes the "Skin Man" as we know him today; when he was magicked by The Wizard, and Skin Man 1 happened.
==Appearences==
===Skin Man Books===
The Skin Man Books are where Skinman first made his public debut. In them, he acts as one of the main characters the story follows, alongside any companions whom he works with, such as the Intruders, Ed Fing, and Young Sheldon, to name a few.
====Skin Man 1-3====
That said, he isn't always the focus of the story. In Skin Man 1, he forwards the plot, with the story almost exclusively following his many antics. But in the second and third books, he shares much of the spotlight with his arch enemy, Evil Man. In fact, he only appears until a little over a quarter into Skin Man 3, as the story manly follows Evil Man's plots and schemes.
====Skin Man 4====
In Book 4 he first seems to regain his importance as, after Hip Toddler's backstory, the next couple of chapter's focus on him once again, albeit with a few cut back over to Hip Toddler once. But it's around Chapter 6 when Skinman again starts to become of less importance. Though the story does continue to follow him, he kind of gets lost in the plot, as the story starts to focus more on the other characters, like Silas, Jesse Pink Man and Ed Fing, Hip Toddler and Evil Man, and Omg Dude. So, yes, he does appear more, but he starts to feel more like an after thought.
===In a Small Coastal Town===
Skinman also appears for a short time at the end of In a Skmal. It is there he is revealed to be the father of that book's main character Brad T. He also works as an easy way to conclude the book, with him stating;
Which basically sums up the ending of the book so Landon and Xavi didn't have to figure out a way to end that story.
== Anatomy ==
Skinman's anatomy is very strange compared to an average male's. Specifically, instead of having eye sockets, a nose hole, and a mouth, there is instead a giant hole (Fig 1 and 3) in the center of his face, called his "sound hole". Other oddities in his skeletal system include a taller, slightly more chimpanzee-like pelvis (Fig 1), a giant chip in that pelvis (Fig 1), several missing ribs (Fig 1), and several more spine bones than there should be, creating what some experts call a "slinky spine" (Fig 1). The way that Skinman breathes is also very strange, with him having "chin holes" and a "chin hole airway" (Fig 2C). The way he speaks is also very strange, with it being somewhat like how average people speak, except for the fact that he has a massive oral cavity (Fig 2B). At the funnel mouth of the oral cavity lays the "Sound Hole Skin" (Fig 2A), which is 0.3 mm thick as to let Skinman properly speak. Within his throat are his vocal cords (Fig 2D), like an average person. The cause of all of these misfits in Skinman's anatomy all derives from the Wizard.

==Skinman's Grave==
Skinman's Grave is the only known residence of Skinman. It is seen in multiple points throughout Skin Man 1, Skin Man 2, and Skin Man 4. It shows up whenever Skinman buries himself into the ground and "dies", which he does as a kind of retreat, whenever he get tired or bored.

==Trivia==
*There are very few times where he is not seen with the skin covering, first in the prologue of Skin Man 1, again in a flashback in Skin Man 4, and for the last time in the final chapter of In a Skmal.
*Skinman's name is commonly inconsistent in the books, going back and forth from "Skinman" to "Skin Man", his official name has now been set as "Skinman", even though his original name was meant to be "Skin Man".
** The term "Skin Man" has been repurposed for the name of the books and universe, severing the correlation between the two.
*Skinman speaks all forms of English across history, this is why he's seen speaking archaic forms of English throughout the Skin Man Books. Despite this, on April 29th, 1796 9:22 P.M. Skinman forgot English for exactly 27 minutes and 43.58 seconds.
