It isn't uncommon for Austin to fail, only to throw himself at the problem once more at the first opportunity. he fails to learn his lesson, at least without someone to persuade him to move on. Austin does these things because he feels the need to surmount his problems, to prove to himself and others that he can overcome anything, even if he's way out of his depth. [b]How and why did your character get to Silent Hill:[/b] Austin is a film student, taking photography classes on the side. For this class, he needs to take photos for various projects. When an assignment calls for photos of a local landmark, most students merely found an old statue or sign to take a photo of. However, pressured by the others in his group, and not believing in the horrors of the town, Austin marches down to Silent Hill, slipping past the fence. The town wasn't far from his own, and his group offered to drive him to the town. Due to the circumstances, they dropped him off a mile away, promising to be back for him... in the morning. Despite his protests, they drove away, laughing. With a sigh, Austin began his walk to Silent Hill. [b]Bio:[/b] Austin had a relatively bland childhood. He was raised by his single mother, his father having left before he was born. Though she had to work quite a bit, his mother had a great deal of financial aid, meaning that life was fairly smooth. Austin was never a social butterfly, only having a small group of close-knit friends, though was content with what he had. During high school, Austin joined the drama club, falling in love with theatre along the way. As a budding actor, Austin got quite a few major parts in his high school productions. He was charismatic, at least on stage, and enjoyed the entire process. Auditions, rehearsals, and finally, the show... like clockwork, and he loved it. Eventually, he left his high school days behind, going on to pursue a college education, with local acting gigs on the side. Though he hasn't been in anything bigger than shows at his local community center, he enjoys this line of work. College is going well for Austin. He does above average in his classes, those being general studies and photography, and actually quite enjoys them. His photography group, while enjoyable most of the time, often use him for their own gain, something that lead to Austin's arrival in Silent Hill. While Austin notices their treatment of him, he never tries to speak up, hoping to gain their respect.
