Devin Sycamore

**Devin Sycamore** is a character played by **SirSaltyBacon**.

## General Information

**Devin Sycamore** is a deeply spiritual person who seeks freedom and unity with nature. His path led him to contact **Mitchell Moon** expressing his interest in **New Haven**: a newly established community of like-minded individuals at the Altruist Camp in the mountains of Paleto.

Upon arrival, he encouraged his new friends, **Mitch** and **Ivy**, to kneel down on a large rock overlooking the ocean and touch the Earth to connect with nature, enthusing that they're all part of something bigger. **Mitch** promised **Devin** that he'd be able to use that spot as a place to give his *"little speeches"* every day. Soon afterwards, **Devin** was almost immediately struck by the intense aura of the area, expressing that he and his companions were on the right path, and that he'd seen it in a vision. This moment prompted him to sing out, which he claimed was not his own voice, but rather *"the world speaking through [him]."* After a brief tour of the living facilities at **New Haven**, **Devin** did not hesitate to stake his claim on the bar, declaring that *"this is [his] bar now."*

**Devin** holds the firm belief that their shared purpose at **New Haven** will prevail regardless of how much effort they put into recruiting, expressing that their word and mission will *"spread itself"*. He advocated against installing communications infrastructure at the ranch, because he believes that anyone who feels a purpose in their direction will find their own way there. Despite this, he did prove himself an almost overly enthusiastic recruiter when the trio attended an event later that day, endorsing the virtues and ideals of the community to anyone willing to listen. However, he came across a little strong, leading his compatriots to reassure their potential recruits that **Devin** is just eccentric and *"a bit of a hippie,"* and that his cult-like language and behaviour was exaggerated or inaccurate.

## Personality

**Devin** is a philosophically-inclined individual whose frequent spiritualist ramblings about life and purpose inspire those around him. He believes in the interconnected nature of the self and the natural world.
