Most would agree that he’s pretty kind and sweet natured but it is the early hardships in his life that truly shaped Dee’s personality. He is tough, cynical and brutally honest and seems to be burdened by a somewhat compulsive need to save people, a factor that often results in both admiration and annoyance because he can’t seem to stay out of trouble. Deshawn much prefers his own company a lot of time and enjoys disappearing for a run or a hike for hours at a time just to clear his head. In spite of this need for independence, Dee is very empathetic and understanding of other people and has no qualms with working with a partner or group as shown by his time on the football team. He is somewhat shy and finds it hard to properly allow his emotions to be seen other people. Deshawn is prone to solving problems with his fists rather than with his head and is seemingly always involved in fights even if said fights don’t really have anything to do with him. The streets of West Baltimore are a dangerous place for a child to grow up, Deshawn is the perfect advocate for that.[/indent] [img]https://em.wattpad.com/c0ff0b428f9375d5179bf7f97ce96ff050af2440/68747470733a2f2f73332e616d617a6f6e6177732e636f6d2f776174747061642d6d656469612d736572766963652f53746f7279496d6167652f705f38354d6544694853774632673d3d2d3536353530393335332e313532396334376238363062376537333637323336313230303732372e676966[/img] [color=CB8DEB]Biography[/color] [indent]When you are born and raised in a place that has in the past been named Bodymore, Murderland your trajectory through life is pretty much mapped out for you from the start. Deshawn Marcus was brought into this world on a cold winter's eve in West Baltimore. His old man was a well known enforcer for one of the heavier gang sets and also worked as a longshoreman on the dying docks. Dee didn’t really have a lot of fond memories of those early formative years. He doesn’t really remember his mother, only that she wasn’t around anymore and that his father was someone you did not mess around with. The few good memories of when he was a child pretty much centred on trips to the zoo and the brief summer days he spent with friends playing touch football. As soon as his old man Trey deemed he was old enough, Deshawn was on the corner, selling drugs. The life of a corner boy was pretty much his entire existence if not for the fact that he was one hell of a football player. He was allowed to play for his high school as long as he earned a good chunk of money slinging dope for his dad which of course he did. Thanks to an early growth spurt and the workout he got every other night running from the police, Dee got real big real quick and damn, the boy could play. Towards the end of his sophomore year, Deshawn’s father had a group of his friends over for a party, Dee on this particular day was in the house acting like a waiter for the drug kingpins of Baltimore. It didn’t take long for things to take a turn, the house was firebombed and shot up. Deshawn and his father survived but only just. After the assault, social services finally decided to step him and took Dee from his father, who didn’t really put up that much of a fight to keep his first born son; thinking in some way that wherever his boy would end up, it would be better than where he was. At such an advanced age, it would be a miracle if anyone wanted to remove Deshawn from the system and give him a home. Either luckily or un-luckily for him an uncle he didn’t know existed decided to take him in and soon enough the hard streets of West Baltimore had become the hard streets of Columbus, Ohio. Uncle Denzel was just as strong willed as his old man but he was on the straight, a former army captain and current school teacher; his long dead mother's brother This kind of environment was good for Dee; structured and caring. Almost Immediately he was recruited for the football team but Deshawn made it a priority not to fall into the jock stereotype; he spent time with his teammates sure but for the most part he was a loner type. After a year in Columbus, Dee had pretty much established himself as a gentle giant, don’t fuck with him and he won’t fuck with you. You need a hand, he’ll be the first at your door. Still, an air of despondency hangs over him like a cloud. A troubled past could put a stop to a bright future and that terrifies him.

She’s calming; like a well a cheerleader is supposed to be. No shade or tea” [i]Hunter Quinn[/i] - “Hunter is like that itch on your ass that you just can’t scratch. As much as I want to get rid of him I just can’t. I love the fucking fool and I’ll protect him with my life; which knowing him his probably far more prophetic a statement than I intend it to be” [i]Minty Goh[/i] - “My girl Minty fresh is like Bob Ross talented but like super fucking fine which basically cancels each other out. My FWB; mint and sexual chocolate that’s a tasty drink right there. Wait what was I talking about? Oh yeah, she cool” [i]Mikey Rodriguez[/i] - [i]Spice Cross[/i] - [i]JayVaughn Spencer[/i] - “Jayvo likes to play this game with me where he tries to get me to smile (as if I don’t). I like to play this game where I slap him upside his head for being a damn idiot. Between him and the other two reprobates it’s a wonder I have any hair left” [i]Melissa Elliott[/i] - “They say in the game that if you come at the King you best not miss. With Melissa, it’s more like come at the Queen, protect ya balls cos she’ll eat them with a side of caviar! Knowing this though; I still can’t help myself around her, I’m like a damn puppy. Fucking white girls” [i]Spike Langley[/i] -“I swear to God if this kid does not learn to keep his mouth shut it’s gonna cost us all big time and it’ll most likely be me that pays the most because it’ll be my job to grab him by the neck and throw him in the trunk of my car and get caught in the crossfire” [i]Sean Bergara[/i] - “Toss a coin to your Boogara...the big boi is always welcome over at my aunt and uncles house; I think they appreciate that his influence on me; whatever that means” [i]Joanne Lynn[/i] - “Jo my girl; only person ever to beat my big ass at HORSE. She got a lot going on in her that she don’t speak on; that’s fine she don’t have to but she knows she’s got me if she needs it” [i]Samara Steward-Ellison[/i] - [hr][hr] [h1][u][b]Liberty[/b][/u][/h1] [i]Christian Barker[/i] - [i]Miki Park[/i] - [i]Nik Zabrecki[/i] - [i]Samantha Queen[/i] - [i]Juno Michael’s[/i] - [i]Aiden Howard[/i] - [i]Fiamma Giannulli[/i] - [i]Richie Diedrikson[/i] - [i]Emily Baxter[/i] - [i]Marcos Kingsley[/i] - [i]Alina Zabreky[/i] -[/center][/hider]
