[color=0054a6][b][u]APPEARANCE[/u][/b][/color]
[indent]Tobias's light blue eyes highlight his strongly german ancestry, if the pale white skin didn’t tip you off already. No makeup, nor any special hairdos, as one would expect from the average male, but has a beard/moustache. Tobias is exactly six feet tall, weighing around 170 pounds, fit as a fiddle, as his previous gang/prison lifestyle hasn’t allowed him to become weak. Tobias generally has a non expressive face, but he generally tries to smile for his own sake. [/indent]
[color=0054a6][b][u]CLOTHING[/u][/b][/color]
[indent]Tobias doesn’t really wear anything too flashy in terms of his fashion, preferring to wear a simple jacket, jeans and some nikes. On occasion, he will wear a suit if he feels the situation requires it. And dress shoes too, because only a heathen would wear sneakers with a suit.[/indent]

[center][b][u]♦Thoughtful ♦ Calm ♦ All Talk  ♦ Remorseful [/u][/b][/center]
[color=0054a6][b][u]PESONALITY[/u][/b][/color]
[indent]While Tobias used to be aggressive in the past, now he attempts to be calm and less confrontational. While his anger still has a short fuse, Tobias manages to keep it in check, at least for now. Conflict is something he is not afraid of, but will avoid violence at all costs.Tobias would willingly allow another person to beat him, as he feels fighting back would drive him back to his previous life. As such, he tries to talk and bluff his way out of tricky situations.  He can be withdrawn at times, as Tobias learned in therapy to mentally remove himself from the picture if his anger is getting out of control.

[color=0054a6][b][u]BACKGROUND[/u][/b][/color]
[indent]Tobias was supposed to be the perfect model for the american dream. Four years of college, internship at a major accounting firm, steady and safe job. There was really nothing Tobias should have been complaining about, as he was practically set for life.

But privately, he hated the life. Tobias felt little purpose in his studies, and later, his internship. While his family had paid for his college, and their connections earned him the internship, Tobias felt empty.  His dissatisfaction led to his membership in a gang. The drugs helped, and beating up some poor sucker on the wrong side of town gave him a different high. Tobias was hooked. The drugs made him feel immortal, beating up other people gave him purpose and thrills. The gang made use of him as an enforcer, to collect debts, participate in gang fights, you name it. 

Ironically, Tobias was arrested for drug use/possession rather than being caught for beating people to near death. He was given three years in jail, losing his job, house, and his car. At first, Tobias blamed everything but himself for this sentence. The system, society, his circumstances. He constantly picked fights with other inmates to get a “high” again. After a year in prison, he “sobered” up and came to a different conclusion.

His downfall was his own fault. There was nothing else to blame. There was something twisted, dark in his head if he had to do drugs or fight to feel satisfied. The system worked exactly as it should have, society was right this time, and he could offer no realistic excuses to his behavior. Tobias started to turn his life around as best he could in prison. Tobias no longer fought, he spent time in drug therapy sessions, and even became a Catholic, attending mass at the prison ministry. 

But as soon as he his sentence ended and he was let out, the empty feeling came back. Tobias tried to ignore the feeling, moving to a small town and acquiring a minimum wage job. He no longer cared much about the faith, ignoring it completely. 

But a man approached him, and offered him another purpose in life. Grimbold, he called himself. Supposedly Tobias had a higher calling, and as long as he would be willing to follow. Tobias accepted, but there was something in the back of the head telling him this might not be any different from his previous gang lifestyle..

[color=0054a6][b][u]RELATIONSHIPS[/u][/b][/color]
[indent]Tobias probably comes off as the skeptic. The thinker of the group. He may take charge if no one else is willing.

[color=d3d3d3]☯[/color]Eddie[color=d3d3d3]☯[/color] Weird guy, but nothing to hate him over. Tobias wonders why he’s in such a group however.
[color=d3d3d3]☯[/color]Teryn/Terry[color=d3d3d3]☯[/color] Weird girl, but not as weird as Eddie. Not much to say about her as she rarely says much at all.
[color=ed1c24]⚔[/color]Sloane[color=ed1c24]⚔[/color] Troublesome. While he may not backtalk to her, there are certainly times Tobias feels he might lose his temper with her and attempt to beat the living shit out of her. For this reason, Tobias acts cold to her in an attempt to get her to ignore him.
[color=d3d3d3]☯[/color]Robert[color=d3d3d3]☯[/color] Too naive. Kind of reminds him of when he was younger, except with less angst, so he holds little ill will towards Robert.
[color=8dc73f]☮[/color]Cara[color=8dc73f]☮[/color]A bit on the short side, but she seems nice enough.
[color=d3d3d3]☯[/color]Nick[color=d3d3d3]☯[/color]Toby feels like he should say something about his illicit activities, but he feels he'd be a hypocrite considering he was no better at that age.
[color=ed1c24]⚡[/color]Nina[color=ed1c24]⚡[/color]Reminds him of Sloane.[/indent]
