[color=#228B22][b][u]In Depth Appearance:[/u][/b][/color]
[indent]Messy hair, a pair of expensive earbud headphones and a dorky smile are all staples of Davy’s appearance. Maybe, if he brushed his hair it’d look neat, but he just [i]doesn’t[/i] have time. He’s been wearing the same sweatshirt for what seems like the entirety of his time in school(he buys it up a size as he grows). Underneath it, he wears a wacky assortment of t-shirts with pictures, images, and sayings that he thinks are hilarious, though his lucky shirt(the one he wears the most often) is one that says across the front: “ALI, BOMAYE.” Rarely, though, is the world exposed to these ‘great’ images; he never wants to take the sweatshirt off.

He’s kind of tall, and isn’t muscular, nor fat. He’s just… decisively average in build, though he has massive amounts of stamina built up from the running and jumping he tends to do when ‘exploring’ the urban streets of Beverly Hills and its surrounding cities. For pants, he wears shorts, and almost nothing but. [i]Comfortability[/i] is key, as far as he is concerned, fashion wise.

He has three pairs of shoes: a good pair of hiking boots for when his treks take him to the mountains, a pair of skating shoes for when he wants to get around on his board, and a pair of running shoes for when he wants more maneuverability.[/indent][h1][color=#228B22][u]M Y  Q U I R K S[/u][/color][/h1]

[color=#228B22][b][u]Personality:[/u][/b][/color]
[u]♦ Brave ♦ Headstrong ♦ Adventurous ♦ Stubborn ♦[/u]
[indent]Not an ounce of fear in his body(unless it comes to people), Davy is [i]always[/i] on the prowl for the next big jump, or the next big trick that he can pull off. He’s an obvious adrenaline junkie, always in pursuit of the next line he can skate or the next mountain he can jump from. He’s adventurous, and this has caused him to travel around the state, exploring mountains and wilderness with excitement. He’s a bit too brave, though, and sometimes it has lead to him biting off more than he can chew and trying to complete a trick he ends up being incapable of doing. No matter, what, Davy always gets up and tries again.

And tries. And tries. Until he finally gets it. Davy is stubborn to an almost unfun extent, he’ll run at a brick wall over and over again until he breaks through it. This has led to a few incidents where his furious parents try to convince him to step down from a jump or a trick that they deem too dangerous, and Davy defiantly scheming to get it done anyway. He hasn’t been seriously hurt--[i]yet[/i]. And that simple fact has led the young man to believe himself invincible.

When it comes to other people, he’s extremely laid back and easygoing. He’s indifferent as to what people think of him, and he doesn’t actively seek out social engagements, he’s far too focused on where the adventure of life will lead him to next. He’s a little bit of a stoner, not to the point that he gets too high to do anything, but it’s noticeable in his eyes, and he has been called out by teachers from time to time, though he always replies the same way: ‘I’m just high on life.’ Which isn’t a [i]total[/i] lie…

All in all, he’s a well liked dude, focused on the ultimate pursuit of happiness and almost nothing else. He doesn’t have time for high school drama, and does his best to disassociate himself from it, to the point of hiding in the hall closets.

Davy is also quite socially awkward, due to a certain event in his past. He goes to therapy for it, but really has no way to deal with his feelings and literal fear of other humans, other than drawing, which he does a lot of.[/indent][hr][h1][color=#228B22][u]D E F I N I N G  M Y  P A S T[/u][/color][/h1]
[color=#228B22][b][u]History:[/u][/b][/color]
[indent]The eldest son of a wealthy business owner and his stay-at-home mom wife, David has had a pretty laid back and easy life, and it shows in the way he acts. He’s never had to want for anything, his parents have always provided what he asks for in return for him fulfilling his part of the agreement: a simple list of chores. Every since he learned how to ride his first bike, it’s been a struggle to get him off of whatever set of wheels he’s using. Though his parents purchased him an expensive car for his 16th birthday, David had no interest in it, and only recently started driving it to school instead of skating there, only so he can drive his recently turned freshman brother to and from the highschool.

Around age seven, an incredibly traumatic event happened, leaving him with PTSD, and a huge fear of people, coupled with huge social anxiety. It wasn’t until he was almost 14 that he finally began going to therapy for it. Though by that time, he had long since realized the only way he could really deal with things was by… drawing. He draws a lot, and has taken to a comic book style, and he’s quite good at it. He draws all the people in his life as heroes or villains, depending on how their interactions go, and has drawn one or two short comic books. Around 13, he started smoking weed, which he has pleasantly enjoyed since--it’s really good at keeping him calm and letting him deal with the people he otherwise can’t stand.

At fifteen, at the suggestion of his therapist, David and his parents(whose remodeling skills came into handy) remade their basement into his secret spot. To this day, he’s still adding to it; at this point, it has a secret door, built into the wall and opened by Davy’s voice, beanbags, a drawing table, a TV, and a computer. There’s also a spot built in for his two semi-aquatic pets.

He has a trophy case in his room, where he houses various medals and awards from different sporting events he’s partaken in. At age fifteen, he convinced his parents to let him go skydiving, and since then he has been obsessed with learning to do it well enough that he can go on his own. He’s only recently gotten to the point where he’s comfortable and ‘well-trained’ enough to do it, but he isn’t quite age 18 and his parents won’t sign the waiver to let him do it. To his dismay, this has raised a feeling of annoyance in Davy’s head that he’s never, ever felt before and he brings it up with his mom almost every day, asking her to please, pretty pretty please sign the damn thing so he can move on with his life.

All Davy wants is to feel like he’s flying again. He fills the void created by the lack of careening back down to earth at high speeds with [i]smaller[/i] jumps, from ramping up and down the halfpipe he built in his parent’s back yard, to driving out of town and to a river not too far away, jumping off of a cliff into it. None of it, though, is quite the same. He’s been quietly considering buying a wingsuit and giving [i]that[/i] a shot.

In the sky, everyone looks like ants instead of the giant intimidating monsters they are when he has to try and look them in the eyes.[/indent][hr][h1][color=#228B22][u]M I S C .[/u][/color][/h1]
