[b]Disabilities:[/b] Epilepsy - Seizures can be induced if he is under lots of stress, dehydration, and intense strobe lighting. They can happen even if none of the triggers are present. He has a tough time remembering what happened during seizures and sometimes doesn't remember them at all, though it's not hard to tell if he has had one or not. He also become really tired after one tends to accidentally fall asleep. [b]Job/occupation:[/b] Grocery Store Clerk [b]Appearance:[/b] Jiro is 6 feet tall and has decent muscles, though nothing to brag about. His most noticeable feature besides the red hair, is his big scar that runs around his neck. His eyes are deep sea blue as well and tends to dress in classy outfits, but wears them loosely so there comfortable. He still has his piercings from his time in North America and also wears a few wristbands which was quite fashionable at his school, though he's not one who obsessed over what he looks like to others. One wristband has his name, address, blood type, disability, phone number and instruction on what to do if he has a seizure. [b]Personality:[/b] He is very reckless and never thinks about the consequences of his actions. He's looks real menacing but he's a kind person at heart. He doesn't care for school, he feels like they teach him useless stuff and he would skip it if he had something better to do. He is a B+ student though he retains most of the knowledge from the books he has read. He values very little but will do anything to keep the thing he does value. He also keeps most problems to himself whether big or small and it's hard to get him to spill anything on a secret. He is enjoys reading books in his downtime or goes out to the store to earn some extra money. His relationship with his family if very distance and lives alone in a small apartment. His family still sends allowance and sometimes something extra on a holidays but that's the extent of it. His allowance is big but enough to pay for everything necessary but leaves practically nothing for any wants. Most of the money he makes from his job either goes into his savings or books. His goal in life is to live it to the fullest. He loves to learn things that are in the moment or he can actually apply to his life, like cooking was one thing he learn and still loves to learn more about, for a example. The thing that seems to make him the most happy is to make others happy or just silence and sitting down, relaxing. [b]Backstory:[/b] Jiro was born and raised in Japan. He lived with his mother and father and with his grandma and grandpa of his father's side. They were more on the poor side of the middle class just barely getting by. When he was about the age of 3 his parents were offered a job that would make them a lot more money. They accepted it even though they knew they would rarely be home. They did get paid a lot more but then after a few months they had to start paying for the trips they needed to take. From there on there his grandparents raised him, with there life style slightly better. At the age of five around summer time he was watering the plants when he suddenly fell down and began thrashing around, it was his first seizure. They took him to the hospital but at first the doctors said that he was fine. They said it was normal for someone to have one once in there life. After a few more quick test they released him. About two days later he had another and then the doctors took it more seriously. After about a 3 day study and a MRI they concluded that he had epilepsy. During this time his grandparents beg his parents to come and see him but they were to busy with work. They prescribed medicine for Jiro to take daily and released him. The medication help stop the seizures but the bigger he grew the more pills he needed and the worse the seizures got. He felt self conscious about his epilepsy and did a surprisingly good job hiding it from most of his peers. He was usually able sense when he was going to have one by getting this weird aura or getting a metallic taste in his mouth, so he ran outside the classroom and had it in the middle of the hallway. His keep this up till he was in 6th grade when he had one with no warning. The staff was already told of his condition but now the entire school knew. Not much changed though since he was usually a loner in school to begin with. He did have a few friends that knew beforehand that he had epilepsy, so he looks back at it like it was a silly thing to do as a kid. At the age of 14, About 5 days before Christmas, his grandma died. They had a funeral and for the first time in 2 years he saw his dad. He gave Jiro a hug and told him that mother couldn't make it and that he was going on another trip. He took up the job of preparing meals for his grandpa for a few months until he got caught in a accident. No one is sure how exactly it happens but as far as he has been told is that he was found on the kitchen floor, bleeding, especially around the neck, and was rushed to the the Emergency Room. They assume he had a seizure when trying to prepare dinner. They estimated it would take 2 months to recover, but it took three times longer due to the frequent seizures reopening the wounds and the different types of medicine they needed to try, do to the increasing seizures. During this time his grandpa die as well. His parents got divorced and after a legal disagreement the house, and most of the things in it, got sold and rent a apartment for him to live in. His parents only came to see him once and only to tell him about the divorce with already happened a month ago. For the rest of the school year he didn't show since he knew he would be unable to catch up on all the missed work and lessons so he fell a year behind. He retook 7th grade in North America since his dad happen to be working there at the time. He "lived" with his dad, even though he rarely came home from work. His dad eventually went on a trip again this being the last time he has seen his dad and live there till the end of 9th grade. (There's more but idk the country the school is in.) [b]Notes:[/b] Bringing up any injury that he has and he will immediately shut you out and sometimes also walk away. New injury appear every so often. A recent doctor visit also brought him unsettling news of his future. (Big secret is secret.) Lastly both parents feel guilty of what he has endured so they constantly send him things, thinking that it will make him happier.[/center][/hider] [img]http://orig08.deviantart.net/7dbd/f/2012/041/e/2/render_anime_boy____by_afriellasan-d4pb629.png[/img] [hider=John Smith][center] [b]Age:[/b] 25 [b]Birthday:[/b] 2/30 [b]Sexuality:[/b] Heterosexual [b]Job/occupation:[/b] Math Teacher [b]Appearance:[/b] He comes to work wearing loose dress pants, a untucked collared shirt, and a necktie he just throughs over his head so he never has to bother to retie it. On Casual Friday (even though there isn't such a think officially at school) and as well on the weekends he wears jeans and a t-shirt that references some sort of video game or comic book character. Teachers complain about his dress style but what does he care. However he's very dashing. His eyes are blue on the outside and green on the inside. He's blond haired and wears a black fedora he bought at Hard Rock Hotel. [b]Personality:[/b] Irresponsible if you want to sum him up in one word. Could care less of what people think of him and what they want him to think. He has a dry and crud sense of humor and is very talkative if you get him to have a actual conversation with him and not just say "yea, whatever." When he gives his lectures he likes to through in lots of funny references to almost anything that comes of the top of his head...if your paying attention. He will go straight through his lecture regardless if the entire class is talking over him and completely ignoring him, but be prepared for a pop quiz that he will grade and will be for a good portion of your grade the next day if you do so. He gives homework every day but rarely grades or even collects it, but that only means that test and quizzes have a even heavy weight on your grade because of this. If you catch him not working he's always willing to help you with anything as long as he has some idea of how to do it. From the way he acts most will find it surprising that he's actually a [I]REALLY[/i] smart guy when it comes to math. It's actually one of the reasons he's so good at most video games. He loves calculating everything and finding what the odds are of them happening, a few of his friends from high school used to call him a human calculator because he was able to crunch extremely large numbers really fast. [b]Backstory:[/b] Sadly it's commonly known that the only reason John is a teacher here is because they are short staffed. He left his previous jobs because he was either fired because of speaking his mind or there was a higher paying job he got. He has a apartment walking distance from the school and a Hello Kitty, adult sized, bicycle he got for 20 dollars. He's responsible enough to pay the bills, go to work, and feed himself but he blows his money on all sorts of toys, videogames, gimmicks, etc. Rewinding back to his childhood, he was a happy kid with a happily married mother and father. He grew up in the same town and has never left it to this very day, nor does he ever plan to. His mother stayed home while his father worked. He was very shy and quiet through elementary school but he grew more confident and became the class clown throughout middle and high school. He talked a lot and caused lots of mischief, but usually nothing terribly bad. He's never been to the principles office, though he was close a few times, but he slide his way around it. In high school that's when one might say his life derailed. He stopped turning in homework and played more and more games instead. He found it a waste of time when that was only partially true. He started to fail a few of his classes, besides math, that was C and sometimes a B. In the end he retook a year there and dropped out as soon as possible. He got accepted in the public collage and got a bachelor degree in education to become a teacher. Why a teacher? Because he thought he would be a amazing teacher. He had a part time job a McDonald's, a full-time job at GameStop, then a substitute teacher, and finally back to the present, a full time teacher. [b]Notes:[/b] He is not afraid of insulting anyone, regardless of who or what they are. He is the teacher supervisor for the anime club. (If that's ok) He has played and beat practically every decent videogame on the market. [/center][/hider][/center]
