[BuriedComic7]

I'm stoked to see the IC is up! I'm also kinda swamped with the holiday weekend here in the states, plus my youngest bro's birthday. I'll definitely have a post up by Monday night, Tuesday morning at the latest.

Siobhan

Name: Siobhan Jude Murphy

Age: 23

Height: 5'10"

Weight: 150 lbs



Zodiac Sign: Virgo

Special Talent: Siobhan is very observant. To the point of being accused of reading minds, which she can't.

Profession: Artist. From portrait to digital. Most recently her charity work for several various charities that cater to children in need.

Bio/Personality: Siobhan had an easy childhood. She was adopted by her parents as an infant and raised as their daughter. It didn't hurt that they were social elite and affluent to boot. They told her at a young age of the adoption and being the kind soul that she is Siobhan soon accepted it. It took her a while, about 6 months but she realized that she was lucky that she got the parents she had. She was ten at the time. Her parents encouraged her love of the arts and wanted to help her launch her career with their influence. Siobhan will have none of it. She wants to stand on her own in this area and has done well for herself since she turned eighteen. That was not a good year emotionally for her. Her best friend, Genevieve, committed suicide that year due to a brutal sexual assault. She launched a line of paintings in Genevieve's honor titled "Portrait of Genny". Which depicted scenes from her memories of Genevieve. The paintings evolved to Genevieve's death which was likened to John Everett Millais' famous Ophelia painting. She organized her own auction and donated the proceeds to Genevieve's family and set up a fund for sexual assault victims. This launched her career in the art world and garnered attention from the elite philanthropist all over. Of course that's the good that happened to her, well that and the worst that's happened so far. She's had men in her life but no one special. After Genevieve's assault she distanced herself from men and doesn't let them to close, consequently she is still innocent and has no concept of hosts flirt.

Siobhan is all smiles very friendly and engaging. She loves to listen and can come off as introverted but is not, she just likes watching people. She is a people person and likes to be around others. How else does she get subject material for her art. She is never far from her sketch pad and most of the time has paint, pastels, chalk, whatever her latest medium is on her, be it on clothes or herself. However when it comes to formal functions she cleans up rather well. She is a HUGE nerd and loves Star Wars, several book series, comics and adores Charmed as her favorite TV series. She loves to cosplay as well and Comic-Con is an absolute must.

Likes: Animals, drawing, dancing, singing, painting, people watching.

Dislikes: Purposefully ignorant people, injustice, liars, bullies, abuse

Favorite Song: Siobhan loves all types of music so she doesn't have a favorite song.

----------------------------- Me -------------------------

Age: Older than yesterday younger than tomorrow...seriously though a lady never tells...but I have to scroll to find my birth year when signing up for things...and I can buy alcohol legally...can I stop now this is depressing...

Region: US, Texas

Years Role Playing: D&D before 3rd Ed came out, posting for about 15 years or so.

Frequency of Posting: I'd like to commit to daily at this time. If that changes I will let you know.

Like of Oranges: Both the color and the fruit is a very big yes.

I really hope there is still room in this for another =)

Personality

Anyone who has ever spoken with Bo can tell you that the only thing bigger than him is his personality. The man is practically the living embodiment of the word passion. Everything he does he puts his all into, regardless of how big or small the task is. The level of determination inside of him is quite astonishing, once he has a goal in mind there is nothing in this world or the next that can get in his way. Bo always tries to keep a friendly attitude about him, it is a rare sight to catch him without a huge warm grin on his face. He has a huge soft spot for dogs and on the top of that list is his own fur covered buddy, a cute mix by the name of Whiskey. His years in the military has left him with quite the appreciation for getting things done in a timely manor, nothing shortens his patience quicker than someone putting off something that could be done now. He is incredibly dedicated to helping his patients, putting them and their recovery ahead of everything else. Under all of his positivity Bo does have a past that he is less than proud of, more over like many wounded veterans he has a few triggers that can send him down a less than pleasant path.

Zodiac Sign

Gemini, though he has never bothered to check himself.

Special Talent

Bo gives some of the best massages around. Despite how clumsy his meaty hands may appear to be the big lug is able use them to get knots out of muscles and crack backs in such a way that people have told him that they feel like completely new people afterwards.

Profession

Bo is a physical therapist that works out of a small clinic that he owns.
Bo has been known to work as a personal trainer from time to time.

Assets

-Achilles Heel Recovery Center-
His physical therapy clinic, it may be small but it does have a rather loyal client following.

-Apartment In Old Harbor-
It isn't the largest but it is more than enough For Bo and Whiskey

-Four Door Black Pick Up Truck-
It gets him from A to B, even if B is on the other side of a mountain.

-Whiskey-
His service dog, they have been together ever since Bo got out of the Army.

Bio

"Growing up my family didn't really have a whole lot, my mom was an exotic dancer at a night club so she wasn't exactly raking in the money, as for my dad I don't know the man, mom says he was just some guy that tipped her really well. I have six younger sisters, all of 'em have about the same story as me when it comes to the father department. I was a real shit kid if I'm going to be honest, I can't remember a day I didn't pull some stupid stunt; either cutting class, getting into fights, or stealing from other kids around the neighborhood. I was a real asshole by the end of it and like you would expect I eventually got into some serious trouble, got caught trying to steal a car. I would of been locked up if it wasn't for the fact that the guy who owned the car was a friend of my mom and he agreed not to press charges, but that was the last straw for my mom and she kicked me out. So there I was eighteen, no job, and no where to go, well that was until I found the Army recruiting office."

"Enlisting is a real culture shock when you are starting out, your entire life is basically turned upside down. You go from normal living to eating and breathing discipline and structure, every second of your day is planned out for you and you either get with the program or you get your ass handed to you until you shape up. It was the best thing that ever happened to me, it pushed me to become a better man and to finally get over that shitty attitude I had my whole childhood."

"I was a medic while I was in, a damn good one too if you ask me. My main job was patching people up if they got hurt while they were out on patrol, it happens more often than you would like. When I wasn't acting as doc I was out on patrol myself. Despite all of its faults I loved the job, getting to help my battle buddies and protect and serve, gives you a feeling of accomplishment that nothing else really can. But uh... things don't always stay so good when you're deployed..."

"Our convoy was on our way back from patrol, a pretty boring one too, we were about ten minutes out from base when it happened. The Humvee I was riding in rolled over an IED, blew me and two of my battle buddies about twenty feet into the air and ripped the truck in half. I don't remember a lot after that, I get flashes sometimes you know; metal flying through the air, smell of burning clothes, the moaning... but uh yeah I was us lucky enough to make it... my battles weren't."

"After the explosion I was in a coma for about a month, when I came to I was back in the states still pretty banged up. No surprise that I was honorably discharged while I was out, can't really serve your country from a hospital bed... They don't tell you it but getting out is just as big of a life change as joining, trying to be an everyday citizen again feels almost impossible. I uh was in a pretty dark place while I was recovering, I felt like I lost everything in that explosion; my job, my friends, my life... The only thing that kept me going was my physical therapist Susana, she worked with me everyday getting me back on my feet, literally. She never gave up on me even when I did, if it wasn't for her I don't think I would be here today."

"It took awhile but eventually I was able to get myself a game plan. Susana relit my passion for helping patients and I wanted to pay that kindness forward so I set off to become a physical therapist myself. Lucky for me I had a GI bill to pay for collage, I even managed to get a job as an EMT in my free time to help with bills. After a few years of hard work I graduated, it was honestly one of the happiest moments of my life, it takes the spot right after me officially adopting Whiskey."

"After graduating I set up shop in Sol city for a completely fresh start, that and the west coast has quite the number of vets in the need of a physical therapist that can actually relate to what they are going through. I'm just hoping that me and Whiskey aren't in over our heads here."

@Pilatus Thanks, I've been wanting to throw my hat back into the ring for a while now and when I saw the intrest check I felt like it was the right time =)

[ihinka]

I'll have to retrieve my interest hat from this. I'm too tired of RP's dying on me to invest in new ones. Have fun!

[PrinceAlexus]

@ihinka

If things do end, it is most definitely not for lack of trying or intent to abaddon it.

@Saarebas

Also it's just a small thing but maybe just include a sma header to so where you are, it does not have to be fancy even just a bold sentence above your post.

It makes a potentially complicated fact multiple posts in multiple locations easy as pie.

Home made apple pie... :)
