Continue with the interview, some critical points I found thru my conversation with vuvu Dremedraman are the meanings of tattoo, specifically hand tattoo, which is the key to metamorphoses my superhero figure to a real cultural archetype.
here is an analysis of the meanings on hand tattoo, (these hands are NOT of vuvu Dremedraman's, but a picture I found on google that is simply more clear to recognize than vuvu's vague hand tattoo...)

the image was cropped from a modern Paiwanese lady who tried to simulate the elder tradition of hand tattoo, which is therefore easier to see.
P.S. the human shapes on her fingers represent "vuvu", which means "ancestors" in this case
