I was bored, so i started some character profile things. Really really simple. This took prolly ten minutes or somethin.
And of course, the first is Ryan. Ryan is basically thrown into a thousand situations and horrors that seemingly only the strongest would be able to survive, when he isn't strong at all. Every time any kind of hope is presented, it's pulled away just as things seem to get better. His loss of faith and his growing lack of will are often taken as self-pity, though piteous thoughts never enter his mind. Only sorrow... as simple as that. He is the essense of sadness, and simply knows no other way to think. It started with his parents, when they died suddenly while he was still only 12. He was left with his brother, 5 years older than he, who really didn't care anything about Ryan's well-being. He was a drunk and a drug-addict, who only kept Ryan to avoid questioning authorities. So, all-in-all being a secret and keeping his situation hidden all through high school was another struggle within itself. Of course, he had found a motivation. At fifteen, during his sophomore year he met Natalie. They were together all the way through the end of high school, when they got engaged right before graduation. Everything seemed like it was going to be alright, but then Ryan's brother up-and-left a few days after Ryan turned 18, leaving behind him his apartment and many debts. Struggling once again, Ryan attempted to pay as many as possible and gain flexibility in the rest. Everything began to fall apart, it seemed all was turning upside down. But the entire time, Natalie stayed with him, helping him in any way she could. She was the only thing that kept him going.
Two weeks later, in a car accident caused by a supposed "gang shootout", Natalie was killed.
A month before graduation, in a state of horror and shock, Ryan dropped school. Only with the aid of his best friend, Kevin, did he manage to keep the apartment and... well... keep alive. Seven years passed, and as everything around him grew and flourished and left him behind, he only wandered from job to job, never earning above minimum wage, never lasting in one place long. He never tried to find someone new, could never think of anyone but Natalie. The only one who gave him any kind of support, financial or moral, was Kevin. Nothing was changing... until he met Andre...

alrighty.... now to get started on the next one. |
