Not like we're gonna get exiled to a forgotten island or somethi--oh wait."[/color] [h3][color=9370DB]Personal Information[/color][/h3] [color=9370DB]Name:[/color] Ashley "Ash" Wilson [color=9370DB]Age:[/color] 22 [color=9370DB]Gender:[/color] Male [hr] [h3][color=9370DB]Appearance Information[/color][/h3] [color=9370DB]Height:[/color] 6'1" [color=9370DB]Weight:[/color] 200 Lbs (Approx) [color=9370DB]Eye Color:[/color] Brown [color=9370DB]Hair Color:[/color] Black [color=9370DB]Physical Features:[/color] On the skinny side, but athletic. Scar on his right cheek. Hair thick, but trimmed to rest above his ears and shirt collar. Bangs usually hang hand-brushed to the side. Hair messy at best, and being stranded on an island has not given incentive for a proper brushing. Usually carries himself upright and proud. Not terribly strong, but top notch endurance. [color=9370DB]Clothing:[/color] Ashley wears simple clothing. Two pair of jeans, two pair white t-shirts, a flannel button-up (red color), a black zip-up jacket, a pair of hiking boots, and a cheap water-proof wristwatch. [hr] [h3][color=9370DB]Psychological Information[/color][/h3] [color=9370DB]Personality Traits:[/color] Bitter | Scrounger | Sarcastic | Dreamer | Loyal Ashley has a rather cynical view of the world, which caused his rebellion in the first place. He knows what he wants, and is willing to burn bridges to make it happen. Comes across as a bit rude to those he's unfamiliar with, and is more inclined to assist them only for personal benefit. Ashley is not entirely heartless, though. Loyal to a fault, and willing to go to great lengths for his friends. In his free time, he's far more concerned with fantasy than he is reality. as he puts it, "I deal with what is all day. I'd rather spend my nights wondering what could be." Ashley spends a fair amount of time tinkering, building, and finding parts for his contraptions in his free time, which ought translate well into trapping while on the island. [color=9370DB]Likes:[/color] Tinkering | Storytelling | Exploring | Reading [color=9370DB]Dislikes:[/color] Being told the "right" way to think | Sitting Idle | Having to Cook (not his fault he's bad at it) | Unnecessary Quarrels [hr] [h3][color=9370DB]History[/color][/h3] [color=9370DB]Country, City:[/color] Outside of New York City, New York [color=9370DB]Dreams:[/color] Ashley hoped to be a writer some day. But since he wasn't fond of the idea of merely writing government propaganda, he kept this trait on the down-low, looking for ways to escape to a freer world. [color=9370DB]Skills:[/color] Ashley is good at scavenging and scrapping, as well as improvised tools. Firm believer in the idea that one can fix the world with nothing but Duct Tape, WD-40, and a Hammer. And when he doesn't have those, he follows the teachings of the 1980s concerning one "Mach-Guy-Ver" [color=9370DB]Backstory:[/color] Ashley never talks about home much. When he does, he often speaks with disdain. Didn't much care for his family's situation and would much rather be just another face in the crowd. The idea that his family even held a "position of power" in the first place was just one of the first flaws that opened his eyes to the faults of the system. He never took an active part in the uprising, instead using his skills to pass messages and help manage an underground communication network in New York. [hr] [color=9370DB]Relationships[/color] [color=orangered]Naomi:[/color] Ashley would see Naomi as extremely useful, given her medical ability, but is wary of her argumentative streak. Ultimately, Ashley is willing to work with Naomi, but is wary of her, as she may be a threat to keeping peace among the exiles. [color=LightBlue]Anselmo:[/color] Ashley firmly believes that Anse truly didn't deserve to be caught up in all this, but here he is. He might do better with a little more initiative, rather than blindly following his twin's lead, but he's not used to a life like this. Ashley would definitely see Anse as someone worth taking under his wing and help him grow accustomed to the wild new world he's been thrown into. [color=IndianRed]Phillipa:[/color] The heart and soul of the Rebellion. Or at least, that's what Ashley tells himself to help keep the peace. Ashley's never been fond of extremism, but desperate times and all that. All in all, Ashley prefers to keep Phil at arm's length, not being particularly drawn to her, but also not willing to let her run rampant. Hot heads like hers may spell trouble for more than just him. [Color=Red]Brod:[/color] Brod comes across as a run-of-the-mill tough guy to Ashley, in spite of his fondness for animals. Which, depending on severity, may be a bit of a problem. After all, Animals are quite edible. And injured ones are just easier to finish off. Following the general theme, Brod's anger issues are problematic to say the least, but Ashley frequently finds himself working with Brod to improve general quality of life around the exile's camp (building shelters, gathering materials, etc), and frequently consults with Brod's superior knowledge of the outdoors, if only so someone will know what to do should something happen to Brod. [color=RosyBrown]Veronica:[/color] Veronica is perhaps the only exile besides Anse that Ashley doesn't see as problematic. Her fearfullness and unwillingness to take risks may cause issues down the road, but frankly who wouldn't be scared at a time like this? Her love of books, quiet nature, and not unattractive appearance make her an appealing companion to Ashley. As with Anse, Ashley gets the sense that she's not meant to be here, and was simply at the wrong place at the wrong time. [hr] Notes: I'm contractually obligated to inform the class that I'm not picky about candy choices, BUT, a 3 Musketeers bar wouldn't hurt right bout now. Relationship status with other exiles is based exclusively on a meta knowledge of both characters based on the information presented in character sheets, and may not be 100% accurate as it will take traits and habits into account that may not manifest till well after First Impressions have already been made. Also, for folks that would like to take the same approach to the Relationships entry as I am, I've used the MediumPurple color, 9370DB.
