In Depth Appearance
Lincoln Everett is attractive. It's possible that Lincoln could be more attractive. However that would require him to clean up his appearance, something he wouldn't do. Much to the chargin of his parents, Lincoln is incredibly scruffy. His dark hair is constantly tousled, giving the appearance that he just rolled out of bed. His eyes are a mix of light grey and blue, and his eyebrows are thin and curved. His forehead is usually covered by his fringe. He stands tall at 6"1', though his shoulders are slight for his height and his arms are thin.
His jawline slopes down to a point , and his chin (like his forehead) is oddly large. He has attempted to grow a beard many times, but has never gotten past having a little spreading of stubble. His nose slightly resembles a ski ramp, something he got teased for at school. His mouth is incredibly thin, set in a slight frown, even though he is prone to smiling. On his upper right arm he has a tattoo of the Jedi Order symbol.
His style is very grungy, he likes to wear a lot of flannel and it is rare to see him without a beanie hat, even in the summer.

Personality
ELOQUENT ☆ TRUSTWORTHY ☆ SELF DEPRECATING ☆ CANTANKEROUS
Acid-tounged and bad-tempered, Lincoln doesn't seem like the kind to be well liked by many. Maybe it's his way with words, his strange magnetism, or his laidback aura, but there is something about him that people like. He is not the nicest of people, his insults are acidic and never used sparingly, he seems lazy and frequently fails to see the positive side of things. It seems that he never really got past his angsty, curmudgeonly phase in his teenage years. Despite this, he is often seen smiling and a chilled atmosphere follows him.
Could this be why people genuinely like such a misanthrope? It's not that he dislikes people, but that he likes his people more than he cares to say, so he only tries to be nice to them, but he learnt that if you make a good first impression then people find misanthropy almost charming. He grew up helping his parents practice their lines, and this early exposure to language made him very eloquent from a young age. His sense of humor is very satirical and sardonic, and he is a closet nerd.
His friends know that they can talk to him no matter what, whether they just want to complain about something petty, or reveal their darkest secrets. After having his parents vent to him about each other from an early age, he knows how to listen to people properly and has subsequently become very observant. The advice he gives people is questionable at times, but he's good at making people feel like they're not being judged.
There is a side to him that nobody has seen. He is so confident in front of people that no one could know that he is really insecure. He hates himself. He never learnt how to see the best in himself, only his flaws. Only his grumpiness, his ability to make people feel bad, his pessimsim. How could you like anyone like that, even yourself?
History
Judging from the current state of the Everett family, nobody would ever guess that Lincoln had a surprisingly happy childhood. He would often go to big events with his parents, and grew up around some very interesting people. The most surprising part? His parents were happy too. They were in love, it seemed, and so incredibly happy, darlings of the press. Lincoln grew comfortable with media attention quickly.
It all turned sour when Lincoln turned 7. It was his birthday party, and just as he was going to blow out the candles in his cake there was a knock at the door. He couldn't comprehend what happened next. Some men came in, claiming they came from the bank, and began to take away the coffee table in the living room. That night his parents honestly explained to him what happened: his father couldn't repay his debts, so the bank where allowed to take things to compensate.
Surprisingly, this event only drove Lincoln closer to his father. The next day, he tried to sell his old toys to try and earn some money for the family. That evening, when he gave his father the whole $20 he earned, his mother became furious. In her mind George had set poor little Link up to it. They fought all night. Eventually you get used to it, though it never stops hurting.
He only grew closer to his father over the years. When he turned 16 his father threw him a party whilst his mother was doing a show in NY. That night Lincoln discovered cigarettes and learned to play poker, two vices he proudly indulged in later in life. From that day, Lincoln became closer to his father than anyone else in the world.
He left for university at age 18, his tuition fees payed by funds that family friends scraped together. At uni he slept around, gambles like there was no tomorrow. It was only when he nearly got a girl pregnant in a drunken stupor that he decided to clean up his act. He weaned himself off gambling for money, now he plays for fun, and is trying his hardest not end up in bed anything with legs and find a serious relationship, for fear of becoming his father.
Hell knows how long that will last...
Miscellaneous
He is studying art in university. He hopes to become a cartoonist one day, like his idol Scott Adams.
He draws cartoons for the local news publication in Rosefell. All the character are obvious parodies of people he knows, which he acknowledges but has never outright confirmed. He is awaiting being accused of libel with glee.
