History:

Johann Steyos' whole world was the orphanage. His first memories are of the couple that ran it exclaiming over his size and how much he ate for a child his age. By the time he was eight years old, they had already started calling him 'Big John', as he was easily the size of an athletic fourteen year old. He didn't stop growing until he was about 20 years of age.

His size has always been a major factor in Big John's life. Another is his intelligence, or lack of it. He appears to be a finely made, handsome demigod of a man with a pleasant smile - until he needs to think. Then he frowns with concentration, his alert eyes fill with worry and near-panic, and the giant can be driven near to tears by anything more complex than basic addition and subtraction. He speaks slowly, deliberately, and attempts to hurry him lead to him stammering as his brain moves at a speed it just isn't suited for. To sit and talk with Big John is a pleasantly stress-free experience - just make sure you have an hour or two.

John is easy company for the undemanding, though. He likes to sing (and has a good, powerful bass voice), likes to paint, likes to cook (and eat), and most of all loves to do these things for others, just to make them smile or hear them say "Well done, John." And despite his size, or perhaps because of it, John doesn't have a violent bone in his body. He doesn't need it, really. His size and habit of gently but firmly interposing himself between two people at odds has led to him taking a few lumps in his time, but the gentle giant takes it all and keeps calm, viewing stopping the fight as all important.

Later, of course, he sits down and cries a little. Just because he's big doesn't mean he doesn't have feelings outside and in, too.
