Shine City IV: Romance Forever!

Hmmm...

Where to start Alec...

Shine City IV: Romance Forever!

@Ophidian Ophid, I know you like to use your psychic powers to stalk people, but the GMs are outta bounds. Besides, we're all feasibly ugly ;)

@Delta44

I made a pact with the old gods for these powers and I'm going to damn well use them!

Shine City IV: Romance Forever!

@Ophidian Just the likes, dislikes and name are all rather similar to my own XD To an extent, of course.

@Delta44

...evidently I made an expy of you without meaning too.

Ha!

Shine City IV: Romance Forever!

Alec Bright

Name: Alec Bright
Age: 21
Appearance:



Height: 5'8
Weight: 136

Likes: Guys, singing, way too many boy bands to name in anything resembling a timely fashion, COFFEE COFFEE COFFEE COFFEE, despite his lack of higher education he has also has an interest in history, it started as musical history, but gradually spiraled into the subject as a whole-he feels like one can't capture something in a song unless one knows what that something is, top to bottom-and since so many subjects are human subjects...well, history is essential to the profession. Appletini's. Fantasy-he's got a thing for sirens, for obvious reasons, he's also got a thing for pretty boy vampires....they're his normal Halloween custom....complete with glitter. Being incredibly touchy-feely (when feeling good/open). Dancing to a good beat-and then chatting up the band afterwards. Politics (super-left wing). Motorcycles. Humanity. And fame. Getting his name out there, that sort of thing. Strategy games (Zerg and Vampire Counts FTW).

Cats or, as he is wont to call them: KITTIES

And, of course.

MUSIC. EVERYTHING. MUSIC.

Dislikes: Being drunk (turns into a weepy mess). Family (except his brother and grandmother), people who don't like music, bigots, flings (and himself, sometimes, for partaking anyway), failure, cooking (he's burnt cereal) and stodgy, stiff, environments. He doesn't do....well...at formal, somber affairs. At all. Economics (sounds, to him, like it's a bunch of bull shit artists presenting the bullshit they made up as fact). Government aid (YES, he knows they've struggled and that he and his brother needed them but it just reminded him of everything he's failed at). His...bitchy moods. Which are getting more frequent.

Party Trick: A singer by trade, Alec's always up for an impromptu performance or serenade. That said, he has a habit of press-ganging members of the audience, on such occasions, as impromptu back up singers. And god help anyone who happens to have a musical instrument. They're not getting away.

Profession: Singer. Alec takes any gigs he can get-one night he might be singing in a lounge, next he might be singing for some rich kid's family at a party. The only thing that's really consistent about his career, at this point, is his brother providing some of the instrumentals. Currently, however, he's on the prowl for his next job-he has high hopes, but lord knows the world has a history of letting him down.

Bio/Personality: Alec and Lex have had a...rough time of it. Their mother, Rachel Bright was not a well women-and had convinced herself-prone to obsession and delusion and exceptionally resistant to seeking treatment for them. Her boys, Alec and Lex (she was not...a terribly creative sort when it came to names), knowing little better, bought into these delusions-hook line and sinker. When she told them Alec's real father was one terribly famous celebrity or another-they believed it. Not even noticing that the name of the celebrity in question seemed to change from year to year. Naturally, she encouraged the musical ambitions of Alec-claiming that it was in his blood, and that he got it from his father. Eventually, however, Rachel took her delusions public-and attempt to sue a famous rock star for child support. A quick DNA test proved her accusations quite false-and that Alec's actual father was a modest businessman on the east coast, who'd gotten a little bit to drunk one night. The world shrugged and moved on.

Alec though, was crushed. He stopped to talking to his mother, and just about everyone but Lex. Lex, for his part, was completely enraged. And as soon as he was able, scrapped together enough money to pay lawyer (...law student....) to aid in the legal emancipation of he and his brother from their mother. When this was done, they moved as far away as they could-they tried California, and were driven into bankruptcy by the rent-minimum wage jobs just didn't cut it. They tried Utah and did all right...but it wasn't the life Alec had dreamed off. That life he'd built around a lie. He didn't talk to anyone, he lashed out seemingly at random, and sometimes, he cried himself to sleep.

Painstakingly, his brother-and in a surprise, the law student he'd begged borrowed and stole to pay-worked, as best they could, to rebuild's Alec's shattered dreams. It took years, but Alec was...somewhat back to his old self, and trying to make a career out of music again. Which brought them to Shine City-a cheap apartment, representation by their now-favorite law student (now an actual lawyer...). Shine City had alot of venues-a generous social support program, and most importantly, the american tabloid media-which would be eager to pounce on "blackmail boy" if they got word of any major success on his part, had a minimal presence and interest in the area.

So.

Here's hoping.

@Ophidian Is it a bad thing Alec reminds me of myself? In some small way? XD Anyways, he looks great! Accepted! ^-^

Well, good thing Ash is fit a fiddle! Even if she doesn't like violence xD

Much prefers peaceful tactics.

Even if she can suplex someone.

<Snipped quote by Ophidian>

I agree with this xD

Who can disagree with the finer aspects of the male form?

Shine City IV: Romance Forever!

Hey guys. It's Angel again. I hope you guys don't mind me joining again after being gone for so long, but I finally have my own computer so I will most likely be on several times a week. Also, I'm thinking that in this season that Ryva and her bandmates have gone on a world tour, so i'll be starting with a new character. I missed you guys, btw.

Rue has always been interested in the properties of plants, so when his mother, a gardener, began teaching him how to use plants for medicine, cooking and many other things. Growing up in Ireland, it was just him and his mother, who he loved dearly. He never knew who his father was, nor did he care. He has gentle hands and a soft voice, and he usually carries a few basil leaves in his pocket and it reminds him of his mother, who died when she was throw from a horse that had been spooked by a snake in the road.

@IrishAngelQueen

Ahem.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

So cute

Marvel: Reborn (M) *Closed*

That's fine, just a heads up, I think I shall be changing my hero. It'll be the same person and all that, just not carnage. And while Deadpool is my favorite character, I don't think he fits with my Irish man. So if I do change him tonight, I'll let y'all know.

Right now, I'm hoping to start the IC tomorrow. If your character is not up yet, don't freak out. Get them finished when you can, no rush.

@SirSqueakalot91

Madarin is on the way-just sorting out the powers. I sort of see him operating as support. Peak human, possibly doesn't age, but nothing amazing compared to some players here. So, alot of his...well, the bang for his buck, will probably come from the Ten Rings. Mooks he can call for support, resources, etc.

Not calling up armies or anything-even if the Ten Rings had that kinda manpower, I doubt he'd trust SHIELD enough to dedicate those kind of resources.
