Growing Up | It's Anything But Simple

Echo Young

Echo Elizabeth Young

"And thus I clothe my naked villany
With odd old ends stolen out of holy writ,
And seem a saint, when most I play the devil."
-Richard III, Shakespeare

In Depth Appearance:

Standing at 5’4” and weighing around 120 pounds, Echo could be described as the Canadian version of a California girl. Her body borders the line between slender and muscular, perhaps a bit stocky, though still retaining the expected curves. Her soft face and gentle brown eyes are bordered by locks of long brown hair, normally curled and draped down her shoulders. Her attire usually consists of a comfortable pair of faded jeans and a white tank top, covered by a loose plaid shirt whose sleeves have been rolled up and generally left unbuttoned. Around the apartment she is usually found wearing plaid pyjama bottoms and whatever top she feels like wearing, along with her favourite slippers. For outdoor footwear, a pair of riding boots or comfy pair of flats adorn her feet. Her work uniform doesn't stray from her daily clothes, however she wears an apron over top if working at the coffee shop.

Habits | Quirks | Oddities

- Has borderline OCD tendencies about the organization of her desk.
- Often talks to herself to make decisions
- Can't sit still without tapping her feet or playing with something in her hands
- Will rearrange almost anything so that it is efficient to use or access
- Bites her lip subconsciously when she is thinking

Hobbies:

- Avid PC gamer, specifically FPS games
- Building computers
- Watching horror movies
- Snowboarding
- Surfing
- Digital art
- Playing guitar

Likes:

- Most types of rock and metal music, along with most EDM genres
- Foreign foods
- Watching sunsets
- Sleeping in
- The feeling of accomplishment after playing a song flawlessly or finishing a design/coding project
- Staying in with her best friends
- Spicy food

Dislikes:

- Loud people
- Ignorance
- Arrogance
- Public speaking
- Being interrupted

Fears:

- Large crowds
- Being the centre of attention
- Mice in her apartment
- Snakes (why does it always have to be snakes…)
- Clowns

Personality:

♦ Focused ♦ Shy ♦ Kind ♦ Stubborn ♦

Echo is generally a quiet person, often preferring time to herself rather than going to a big party. She is extremely focused and therefore can be rather jumpy when working on a project, however because of this she often misses things outside her skill set and doesn't see the bigger picture. She is quite stubborn once she's made up her mind, but this also translates into extreme determination and she will often go many hours without sleep if it means finishing the task at hand.

Echo is extremely nervous when put on the spot or when meeting new people, mainly because most of her childhood was spent working on computers or learning to code. As well, she's pretty much the definition of an introvert and nervous breakdowns over small things are not uncommon, one can only imagine what would happen to the poor girl if something big happened.

History:

Born in the bustling city of Toronto, Echo was an odd child to say the least. Her real parents couldn’t afford to keep her, so they had put her in an orphanage shortly after she was born. At around three years old, she was adopted by her father, Michael White, a well off businessman who developed software for large corporate companies. The two lived in a beautiful high rise in the downtown core, where he home schooled her for the first few years of her life. He taught her all the basics, including learning to speak both english and french fluently. However, her education in math and computers was the high point during this time.

She learned basic coding in a good three to four languages by the time she was finishing the public school curriculum and had also learned how to assemble a computer and how to troubleshoot it when something went wrong. Of course, like any child, she was always more interested in the games one could run on a computer and frequently got distracted from her homework by them.

After finishing public school, her father got a job offer in California and after getting all of the paperwork in order, the two of them moved there so he could pursue his career further. Echo started high school, her first year at school with other people. It was rough for the first little while. No one was really interested in computer programming and she’d never felt more lonely in her life. At home, she often kept to herself and her computer, either writing increasingly advanced code or playing games.

High school graduation day was probably the happiest she had been in a long time. Being the youngest one there was interesting, yet satisfying at the same time; Echo had skipped grade ten because of her excellent previous education. She was quick to move out despite her father’s protests and finished her college education in computer sciences four years later. She moved out to San Francisco into a small apartment with another girl, hoping to make a few friends and enjoy herself for a while.

Extra:

Echo's favourite activity after a long day standing at the coffee shop is probably playing a few rounds of Battlefield 4 on her computer. Fun fact, I enjoy doing the same thing....only I don't work at a coffee shop. :P

Anything Else:

Nope

Growing Up | It's Anything But Simple

I got my female character almost done, will be posting her sometime tonight.

Task Force Echo (A Special Forces RP)

@kingkonrad I'll lengthen my post when I get home, phone's dying.

Task Force Echo (A Special Forces RP)

Oakley moved out the door as if exiting some high stakes board meeting. She raised her rifle and moved down the stairs, holding position at the bottom to cover the group’s exit. Her leg felt as if someone was holding a red hot piece of iron to it, and although she had definitely felt worse pains in the past, or didn't make this any easier at all. After everyone present upstairs had moved by, she took the rear guard position and raised her rifle once again.

Moving out into the street, Oakley felt safer, and yet felt so exposed at the same time. The desert air was stagnant and warm and it clung to everything like a disease, Oakley was thankful she'd picked a weapon with few moving external parts so that she wouldn't have to deal with any jams. She took cover behind a brick wall across the street, sitting semi-prone behind. She clutched her wounded leg, blood having stained her pants and dried at this point. Realizing that the blast would be taking place any moment now, she made sure to tighten her shemagh around her face, and switched out her sunglasses for full seal goggles. “In position…over.” her breathing was evidently heavy over the radio, hinting at her slightly weakened state.
