Tell me what you think. [hider=Vale H. Exen][centre][img]http://i.imgur.com/qBHhpvT.jpg[/img][/centre] [b][u]Name:[/u][/b] Vale H. Exen [b][u]Age:[/u][/b] 22 [u][b]Gender:[/b][/u] Male [b][u]Height; Weight:[/u][/b] 6'2; 183lb [b][u]Years in Blackwing:[/u][/b] Four [u][b]Apartment Number:[/b][/u] 2C [u][b]Room Description:[/b][/u] Vale's living room sits opposite the kitchen space and lacks a television or radio of any sort, instead an old damaged couch sits along the wall separating the space from the 2nd bedroom and in front of it sits an unstable makeshift coffee table Vale had put together with two cinder blocks and a some-what decent rectangle timber table top that had lost it's legs long ago. The other end of this living space houses Vale's pride and joy, a very well kept PC, seated on an old wooden desk with a computer chair rested next to it. Vale only makes use of the larger bed room, but doesn't do too well at keeping it tidy, clothes are often found lying around. The other bed room has built a thin layer of dust over the past four years. Only a tall lamp, bookshelf and futon populate his primary bedroom, however, the bookshelf is packed with books, mostly educational texts. [u][b]Odd Trait:[/b][/u] Masochist(Non-sexual), Recovered Drug Addict [u][b]Physical Descriptions:[/b][/u] Vale's right arm, from elbow to shoulder, houses several tattoo's often following a theme of bloodshot eyeballs and odd fictional 'rune' characters. His left arm on the other hand(heh), houses several cut mark scars from his wrist up to his shoulder. It is extremely rare to find Vale without a long sleeve shirt or long pants, he also never leaves home without a singlet on under his shirt. [u][b]Background Info:[/b][/u] Once considered a promising young lad, Vale was pushed into the limelight consistently by his parents for his promising prospects as a singer after a video of him singing at the age of six went viral. Despite his 15 minutes of fame being well and truly over before his seventh birthday, the prospect of earning fame and money through their child breathed new vitality into a broken marriage, because of this, the pressure pushed upon Vale to be 'exceptional' eventually became too much to bare, resulting in an almost crippling anxiety disorder, a disorder his parents did not take seriously. At age fourteen Vale found his way into the 'wrong crowd' and started using drugs, he quickly clung to the substances as they provided a means for him to deal with his anxiety. This triggered the beginning of Vale's 'Dark Years', where in he'd often engage in drug fuelled brawls and self harm, all the while his parents, disappointed by what they perceived as their only son's sudden 'shyness' as well as faced with the fact that he clearly engaged in illicit activities, began to fight more and more. As the years went on the Exen house hold fell in on itself and each family member grew to resent one another more and more until, at age 17, Vale found himself on the streets. It was when he started to feel himself at home, with the drugged out homeless dredges of society that Vale found himself at a cross roads; clean himself up and become some one, or continue down this path of cheap thrills and an early, meaningless grave. Vale quit cold turkey and one year later, moved to Blackwing where he was able to start to cultivate his interest in technology and mathematics. [u][b]Other:[/b][/u] Vale takes three pills in the morning prescribed to him by his doctor for his anxiety disorder. Vale also likes to sing and has quite an impressive singing voice, however, he rarely does this any more and hasn't sung in front of an audience in several years. Vale is short sighted and objects beyond arms length start to become fussy when he isn't wearing his glasses.
