Jay _____

Name: Jay [insert surname]



Age: 24 Years Old
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 179

Self-Conscious
Jay is very confident in himself, stranding away from the pack of degenerates he used to live with. He loves his mother as he believes he is the favorite son and never attempts to defy his father. As his parents age with time, Jay takes it upon himself to visit and take care of any of their needed chores. He doesn't owe them anything, but tries to do good in times of financial chaos. Though deep inside, he is not the prodigal son he wishes he was.

Family feelings
As the oldest son and only seeming caretaker, Jay sees all of his brothers and sisters as worthless pieces of shit that have basically abandoned their blood. Family is the most important thing to him, but at times he is clouded by the poor actions of his people. He does his best to be optimistic, but when the time arrives when optimism does not bind, he's able to snap.

**EDIT** Let me know if I need to change anything

@Shmektheshmuck Love it m8 XD @Oliver Looks good :) @Erklings25 Im going to make the "popular" son be younger than him because everyone knows the parents love the younger ones more XD Hes good Accepted

[Zi]

@QT Are you an uncle? or father? or son? thats old for what I was aiming for... gramps is 70 which would make you like a very young son or very old grandson...

@Zi

I will be waiting for @MissCapnCrunch before I post mine because mine is dependent on hers.

[Oliver]

Thanks! So @Zi, what are your thoughts about a family name?
Technically we'll need 3 family names: One for the kids and the parents, one for Robby (as he's from the mother's side of the family) and one for Linus (Since his last name would be that of the mother's sister's husband).
All this is assuming we're following the European custom of taking on the male spouse's name.

[Zi]

@alexfangtalon okay

[Andreyich]

I would like to ask once more, who am I being lovey dovey with? And are we decided on the redneck setting?

[Zi]

As for everyone else's questions being a southern family It would make sense to be religious however if that is controversial its not a problem. However the political Ideas are almost guaranteed to be Republican because of real life trends but then again its all up to you guys. As for social class it all depends on what the parents want to do for work (mom or dad can be stay at home) if they have lower paying jobs they may need to work overtime a lot or if they are in a huge money making business they might have to spend a lot of time there anyway. As for the surname of the family that is for the father to decide because everyone is using his last name. If the mother wants a hyphenations then so be it and we can have that. We can have a vote where you all take the vote template and fill in your answers if you so wish... the vote list is down below.

Now here is the vote.
Religion?
Political standpoints?
What social class do YOU prefer?
What do you want the last name to be?
What family member are you: (just fill this in however you want we can sort things out later)

[Zi]

@Andreyich Your girlfriend will be [@TheLadyJayce] I dont know why she wont be tagged

[Oliver]

My votes:
Religion - I'm Jewish myself, so I'd prefer it if we weren't super religious as my knowledge of religions other than my own is minimal. That said, my opinion on this isn't a strong one. If everyone else wants to be Lutheran or something, I'm cool with it.
Political - Being that this is a white American southern family, I was thinking conservative.
Social Class - Can we be broke? Please?
Last Names - Something that's common in the South. Calhoun, Dale, Williams, Smith, etc.
What Family Member are You - Depends on whose perspective. He's the mother's sister's kid. Based on the accepted characters, Linus is Robby's grandson and Forrest's cousin.

@Zi

I was wanting to be a son of whomever the mother was gonna be. Seen as the grandpa is 70 I was assuming the mother would be in her 40-50s

@QT

Wow, do people have their kids really young where you're from?
If the mother's in her 40s and she had her kids in her 20s, that would mean they are now in their late teens/early 20s.

[Zi]

@QT That means we will have 3 sons... Which is fine... Just know that the character that I will be playing is like the parents favorite because he is the youngest and so far the most "prosperous" so to speak... Just bring his age waaaaay down... Like 18 or 19 maybe... still that would push the parents into the 40 range which I hope is okay by them

[Zi]

@Oliver I would rather not having a poor family but if more players vote in your favor than I cant change it :)

[QT]

@Oliver

I mean, we could say she had him early for government welfare lol

But yea, here in texas you see really young women with children

[Andreyich]

@ZiWait, moments ago I thought I was the bad boy boyfriend of a daughter? Well if I am the dad I guess I collab with @Fabricant451 who'll be the mother? Alternatively Fabrican can be a daughter, and the mom left or passed away?

Religion would probably be Protestantism or if we're Irish/German/Italian then possibly Catholic. I want lower middle class, or upper middle but paying for some sickness to drain on money. If I'm the dad RPing having to do dialysis or ocassional chemotherapy could make some interesting family tension. I would like "MacGregor," "Klein," or "Eriksson" to be the last name. I'm paw-paw I guess.

@Zi

So 32 years old is a no go?

And I could just say it's his belief thy he's the favorite and he personally feels that way.

[Andreyich]

@ZiOkay this change of my char every five minutes isn't good for my sanity. Am I a dad or bf?

[Oliver]

@ZiOkay this change of my char every five minutes isn't good for my sanity. Am I a dad or bf?

@Andreyich

It's not really my say, but I feel like we probably need a dad more than a daughter's boyfriend.

[QT]

Would it be okay to make him 23-25, this way he's still the eldest and the mother could be around 44? So she had him in her early 20s
