Context :

We are in the middle of summer 1999, somewhere in a peaceful American small town, surrounded by dense forests and lakes. The air is heavy with heat, and crickets are chirping nonstop. Steve lives an extremely simple life. He lives in a small wooden house in the middle of the woods, which he built with his own hands (or almost). He has no TV, no cell phone, and he knows nothing about the "Y2K bug" that worries everyone. For him, the world is an infinite playground where you can build, explore, and most importantly, survive. Summer 1999 is a blessed season for him: the days are long, the nights are short, and there are always tons of wood to chop, caves to explore, and animals to tame. He has a fresh, wonder-struck view of the world, as if he's seeing it for the very first time. He doesn't understand the modern world, but he is convinced that life is much more beautiful when you focus on the essentials: a good stick, a sturdy pickaxe, and a good soup.

Biography :

Steve is a mysterious man, likely from another world. He believes he is the only human inhabitant of his universe, until he meets people from "reality". He has learned to survive alone in a world of blocks, where you have to craft everything yourself, from the smallest spoon to the biggest house. He has spent years exploring, fighting monsters at night, and farming his land. He has incredible know-how for everything related to manual labor, carpentry, metallurgy, and agriculture. He is totally out of sync with the modern world: he doesn't understand cars, phones, or ready-made pizzas. He is an eternal optimist, convinced that every problem can be solved with a little creativity, patience, and a lot of stone and wood. He has a huge heart and unwavering loyalty towards those who agree to join him on his adventures.
