[hr][hr][h3][b][i][color=97e23b][center]Character Summary[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h3]
[b][color=97e23b]Name:[/color][/b] Bartholomew James Rosecliff
[b][color=97e23b]Nicknames:[/color][/b] Bart
[b][color=97e23b]Apparent Age:[/color][/b] 24
[b][color=97e23b]Birthday:[/color][/b] December 3rd
[b][color=97e23b]Nationality:[/color][/b] American
[b][color=97e23b]Birth Place:[/color][/b] Los Angeles
[b][color=97e23b]Gender:[/color][/b] Male
[b][color=97e23b]Native Language:[/color][/b] English, Mandarin

[hr][hr][h3][b][i][color=97e23b][center]Appearance[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h3]
[b][color=97e23b]Height:[/color][/b] 6'1"
[b][color=97e23b]Weight:[/color][/b] 160 pounds
[b][color=97e23b]Build:[/color][/b] Well fed, but not overweight. He has a runner's body, muscles present and visible, though not over proportioned
[b][color=97e23b]Eyes:[/color][/b] Emerald green, ovular.
[b][color=97e23b]Hair:[/color][/b] Natural blonde. His hair is the definition of organized chaos, a kind of messy that's so consistent it looks to be on purpose. It goes out to about an inch and a half, and has a course and rough look and feel.
[b][color=97e23b]Skin Tone:[/color][/b] Lightly tanned
[b][color=97e23b]Tattoos/Scars/Piercings:[/color][/b] None to speak of
[b][color=97e23b]Personal Style:[/color][/b] Being a swinging twenty something from the 21st century, Bart of course has a very modern dress. Normally wearing some combination of jeans and T-shirts, or other comfortable clothes. Bart always dressed for comfort in life, since he'd never especially had to dress up at all for his day to day activities. Brand doesn't especially matter to him, perhaps it's because he came from a poor family, but the manufacturer of clothes doesn't at all affect whether the clothes do what they need to do, so it's not a factor.

	  Bartholomew keeps himself well groomed, taking advantage of the fact that he was born into a time period and place where daily showers were by no means a luxury. His hair happens to fall into place at the length it's at so he doesn't put any real effort into maintaining it. If it did happen to look sloppy or messy on any given day, he'd put in the extra effort to fix it, but normally this would be a sign that he'd be needing a haircut, and would get that done as soon as he could.

[b][color=97e23b]Sexuality:[/color][/b] Bisexual
[b][color=97e23b]Relationship Status:[/color][/b] Single
[b][color=97e23b]Personality:[/color][/b] Every major achievement in Bart's life can be attributed to his natural curiosity. He is almost clinically incapable of leaving a subject alone once it's caught his interest, which is by no means a difficult thing to do. Many a night have been taken up by him toiling away in his room, researching whatever new topic has caught his attention. He can border on obsessive when he finds a new thing to latch onto, and has even been known to forget to eat on several occasions when he really gets into learning about a new subject. This has the natural consequence of making him as least familiar with many topics, though his familiarity by no means implies a proficiency. 

	This also means that Bart is very good at talking to people, being able to casually talk about most subjects. And when people have interests that he hasn't caught onto yet, he's always ready to give them a chance to educate him. While he loves talking to people though, he often doesn't have time to. Either working or absorbing himself in whatever topic has struck his interest that week. Concerning his work, if he can be said to have any longstanding interests, programming and software design can be said to one of them.

[b][color=97e23b]How did your character die?:[/color][/b] Bart died to no fault of his own, which goes to show the true uncaring nature of the world. He was out to get his cat vaccinated, and wasn't having the best day. Between death threats and unscrupulous sushi vendors, it deemed like something was out to get him. This however, was nothing compared to what would cap of the day, and his life.

He met his untimely end to a fucking Rube Goldberg machine of death. He ended up dying to nothing but an unfair roll of the dice. Essentially, everything that could have gone wrong did. A bit of pressure buildup in the sewage system of Justice CA , mixed with a car crash into a fire hydrant ended with a unlucky Bartholomew painted onto a wall. The hydrant ended up being launched into him, ending his life in the space of an instant. 
[b][color=97e23b]What Brought You Here:[/color][/b] Though he isn't an egomaniac, Bart always had it in the back of his mind that his life was to be of some kind of importance. He'd put quite a lot of work into it, and is the type of person to believe that hard work has a habit of paying off. But, with his sudden demise, he never had much of a chance to dig into his potential.

Bart's holding on for that reason. He refuses to go gently into the good night. He'd spent his life fighting and writing and working his way out of the social pit he was born into, only for it all to mean absolutely nothing in the end. He needs his existence to truly matter, and that does not include being killed by a fire hydrant. He isn't even completely sure what it means to matter himself, but he knows he wants to touch the lives of as many people as possible, and make the world an overall better place.

[b][color=97e23b]Does your character want peace:[/color][/b] Who wants peace? The way Bart sees it, he'll have time for peace when he's truly dead. Especially with the true nature of the world being illuminated to him, by way of the Emendators and Paradoxes existence, there's so much more to learn and explore. While some may be stifled by their literal brush with death, if anything, it's invigorated Barts drive to better himself and understand the world at large, not only through the academic means he'd relied on before, but also to start really experiencing the world.
