Appearance
Summary
Pekkori is a middle-aged man who is always seen wearing sunglasses, even when he is inside or when it is raining. He has a rather rectangular-shaped face and a shaved beard. He wears a black hat with an embalmed goat on it and a robe similar to the ones worn by the other cultists, but over his hood he sports a hat shaped like a ram. He has a red, thin sash tied around his waist, with the knot on the front, and he wears a necklace made of light-green beads and what look like some animal's fangs.
Personality
Summary
He is apparently very attached to his people, as he is willing to save them by any means necessary, even summoning Satan himself. He however has a darker side, as he was willing to make a show of the longarms for money.
