Okia is a stunning person. Is quiet at first but as they get comfortable with you you won’t be able to shut them up! Has a hard time trusting people. Tends to know everyone’s secrets. Always doubts themselves. You might never see them cry but behind closed doors they are a different person. Is funny and always seems to laugh at the worst moment. Will be a friend for life if you come across them. (Holds a grudge for a very long time)
Wow your just like Okia
Okia by Bash ddisnsjjs December 30, 2018
An island south of Japan and east of China filled with centenarian elders and American military bases. The people living there are known as the Okinawans, who are culturally distinct from the Japanese. They are also the same people who gave us Mr. Miyagi from Karate Kid, so thank them for that I guess?

It’s often seen as the Asian version of Hawaii, but don’t be fooled because Okinawans drive on the left whereas Hawaii people drive on the right.
Also, did you know that the original name for Okinawa is “Uchinaa”? I hope you didn’t because that’s the most random fact ever and knowing it reveals that you either have no life or you’re super bored from being in quarantine.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
