Watoan

This tall, skinny young warrior prides himself on being the fastest warrior in the tribe. His exact age is unknown, but it is likely that he is around the same age as Sebastian Turner, 19. His skin is a deep tan from the sun but his eyes are hazel in color. It is later revealed that Watoan was a shipwrecked cabin boy who arrived on the island five or six years ago and decided to become a member of the Nutsook tribe. His skin is the lightest, as are his eyes, indicating that he was originally fair-skinned. His dark brown hair is only a slightly lighter shade than the hair of other members of the tribe.

Watoan harbors a secret crush on Laksah, the chief's wife, but isn't foolish enough to try to act on his desire for her. He is coming to the age where he will need to pick a wife of his own, but his attraction to Laksah is starting to get in the way of his ability to choose a young girl for himself. This is part of the reason why he agrees to adventure with Sebastian/Julia. The other part of the reason is either his desire to demonstrate his knowledge of the land or his own growing attraction to Julia.

Watoan knows all the edible plants of the Faire Isle. He also is familiar with all the animals of the jungle and all the well-traveled paths to water. As much as he loves the jungle, he longs to see more of the land. He is one of few who does not believe the "Faire Isle" is an island. He believes it is a peninsula and that the mainland lies beyond the Crystal Mountains.
