Really, it's just his middle name, but he can't stand Abraham, so he goes by this. He thinks it sounds pretty cool. [color=deepskyblue][b]Date of Birth;[/b][/color] January 14th, 1994 [color=deepskyblue][b]Age;[/b][/color] 22 [color=deepskyblue][b]Gender;[/b][/color] Male [color=deepskyblue][b]Sexuality;[/b][/color] Heterosexual [color=deepskyblue][b]Relationship Status;[/b][/color] Single [color=deepskyblue][b]Sexually Active;[/b][/color] Yes [color=deepskyblue][b]Occupation;[/b][/color] Aspiring filmmaker/actor and a bartender at a small pub called the Lion's Den [color=deepskyblue][b]Room Number;[/b][/color] Room 509 [color=deepskyblue][b]In Depth Appearance;[/b][/color] Tousled blonde hair and a smile that should be illegal, Reed is quite the looker. His teeth have that trademark look that comes from years of having braces, and are pearly white, a result of having a dad who's a dentist. His eyes are a deep blue, and have led many a girl into his bedroom. He's slender though not lacking in muscle, due to the time he puts in at the gym. He's not too short either, standing at about 6 feet, with shoes on, closer to 5'11 without. While he doesn't have any piercings, his wrist has a tattoo with the coordinates to his home town, 38.8027° N, 123.5778° W [color=deepskyblue][b]Habits | Oddities | Quirks;[/b][/color] - Nail biting - Licks his lips when he's nervous - Traces his tattoo - Moves his mouth around when he's bored [color=deepskyblue][b]Hobbies;[/b][/color] - Making movies - Acting - Reading - Drinking [color=deepskyblue][b]Secrets;[/b][/color] - He blames himself for his dad's death. - He's afraid to actually grow up. [color=deepskyblue][b]Likes;[/b][/color] - Sex - Vodka - Movies, literally anything - Photography - Mystery novels - Sleep - A good bar crawl - Making movies [color=deepskyblue][b]Dislikes;[/b][/color] - Wine - Hangovers, which is a tad ironic - Seeing old pictures of himself - Being reminded of his dad - Romance novels - Romance - Beets [color=deepskyblue][b]Fears;[/b][/color] - Death - Dying alone - Growing up [color=deepskyblue][b]Personality;[/b][/color] [b]Creative[/b] - Reed has an amazingly creative mind, and can find art in anything. Wherever he looks, he sees a potential scene for a movie, or a potential picture. This has led him to become quite the artist, mainly behind the camera, but it also gives him quite the party planning skills. A night out with Reed will always be memorable, and if he was one for romance, he'd be quite amazing at planning them. [b]Promiscuous[/b] - Everyone knows that Reed is a man-whore. He's a flirt, a floozy, a dirty skank. He just can't seem to settle down, which is most definitely related to his issues with letting people in. Said promiscuity can often rub people the wrong way, as he has a tendency to flirt with just about anyone and everyone. [b]Closed Off[/b] - Any woman that's tried to start a relationship with Reed will tell you the same thing. He's not good at letting people in. Sure, he makes friends easy enough, but he rarely tells them much about his past. He doesn't do well with sensitivity, a fact that he hides behind a large wall of sarcasm and humor. [b]Loyal[/b] - When you're a friend of Reed's you become something akin to family. He sees friendship as something sacred and would never do anything to jeopardize it. In fact, he's one to go above and beyond for his friends, and would never betray them. He's been known to get into fist fights in bars, just because some shitty dude tried to hit on one of his female friends. [color=deepskyblue][b]Place of Origin;[/b][/color] Anchor Bay, California [color=deepskyblue][b]History;[/b][/color] Lucas Riley met Sarah McDermott on a rainy Wednesday in a diner just on the outskirts of her hometown of Anchor Bay. He sat down for a milkshakes, and one thing led to another, and two years later they were married. Theirs was truly a fairy tale romance, complete with love letters and everything. It was adorable. And then they graced the world with Abraham Reed Riley. Or as he likes to call himself, God's Gift to Man. Reed grew up in Anchor Bay with a population of 340 people. About 100 of those people were his age, which didn't lend itself to very many social situations unfortunately. Despite these limitations, Reed was always extremely sociable, and he became known around town as quite the talker. Always the character, the whole town couldn't help but love him. He'd talk your ear off while his dad drilled into your teeth. Such was his way. As he grew older, Reed's sociable nature led to his entrance into the world of alcohol and rebellion. As he entered his teens, he became quite the drinker, a fact which was not lost on his parents. But, despite repeated groundings and numerous scoldings, he refused to give up his life of teenaged debauchery. The only thing that he truly had a passion for was film, but even that didn't keep him from going out late at night and getting black out drunk with his friends. And as his grades plummeted, his life took a turn for the worst. He was seventeen and had come home with three D's. His worst grades to date. He was drunk, he always was, and his dad came in to his room, fuming. There was a fight, not that he remembers most of it, and harsh words were exchanged. And then, his dad left, saying he needed to drive off his anger. His mom was crying in the living room. His dad didn't come home. The police came the next morning, and gave them the news. It was hard, and Reed blamed himself. It kept him from drinking for a while, but he took it up again, and right after high school, he moved to New York, and moved into Room 509, unable to deal with the guilt of his hometown. Since then, he's made a few movies, nothing too great, but they've been featured in small indie film festivals. He's really hoping to get something accepted into something like Sundance, with bigger exposure, or to even act in something really great, but for now, he's just a bartender.

They say hi in passing but that's about it. He's a big fan of Liam's cat though. | [color=42c0c4]J O S E P H . R I P P L E[/color] | {[color=white]☯[/color]} "[i]He's the actor dude right? I've seen him in a few movies before. Kind of cool that he's my neighbor.[/i]" Reed knows of Joseph through stories and rumors mostly. He heard about the lawsuit, of course, but he's not one to judge. He figures if they get closer the real story will come out..[/hider] [hider=Room 501] | [color=CB99C9]R Y D E R . T A L E V O S E[/color] | {[color=215435]☮[/color]} "[i]She could loosen up a bit when it comes to going out with people, but she's still pretty cool.[/i]" Reed has a habit of trying to set Ryder up with just about everyone, though he's only gotten her to go out on one date. He's still pretty confident that she and Ryan would go really nicely together, but that's his little secret. | [color=FFBF87]I D A .

Sure, she works herself ragged every now and then, but I'm always there to get her having fun again.[/i]" Reed and Ida are good friends, often going out clubbing together. Reed makes sure Ida doesn't work herself too hard, and the two often serve as each other's wingman/woman | [color=???]F I R S T N A M E .

He'll say hi in passing, and wave but that's the extent of their relationship. | [color=f26522]M I N G - L O N .

D E B O S E[/color] | {[color=215435]☮[/color]} "[i]Touchy subject...[/i]" Reed and Roxanne get along rather well, seeing as how both have a penchant for not discussing their issues, which leads to watching great movies and drinking cheap liquor. However, said cheap liquor can also lead to some questionable decisions, such as hooking up together. Suffice to say, things have been a bit awkward. | [color=a0410d]R Y A N . S T I L L M E N[/color] | {[color=0050cc]♫[/color]} "[i]Honestly, Ryan's my best friend in the building. I'm probably not his, because let's be real, he could do better, but he's definitely mine. Don't tell him I said that, or I won't ever hear the end of it.[/i]" Reed considers Ryan to be his best friend and is more often than not hanging out with him. While he often drags the bespectacled young man into trouble, said young man often keeps Reed from doing anything too stupid while he's drunk off his ass.
