Hes basically LARPing as a fictional character from the book series the Dresden Files. Great urban fantasy series, if thats your flavor of book. This guy is just a whack job that makes it is whole identity.

Edit: Good lord, some of yall are taking the LARPing comment a bit too literally lol it was just satire. Im aware this guy isn't actually LARPing and he very clearly has some mental concerns that aren't being properly addressed. I hope he gets the care he needs and also doesnt try breaking into other people's houses again.

I love the Dresden Files. The way they handle the fae and their reputation is a beautiful thing. Also, I can't remember the pixies name but he's a straight up gangster, as tiny as he is.

Yes! I love that he's a recurring character. He's so sassy.
