Primality: Act 1

Johnathan Quinn

John was up quite early to go for a run around campus. He always went for a morning run back home, and there was no reason to let that habit fall by the wayside just because he was in a new place. The morning was comfortably cool, though it promised to warm up as the sun rose higher. After half an hour it was back to his dorm for a quick shower and to change into his school uniform -- white shirt, black sweatervest, red tie, and black slacks. John was far from thrilled. It really took a bit of the life out of things, having everyone dress the same. And a tie! Ties were uncomfortable at best, and downright annoying at worst. The blazer he draped over his shoulder -- it wasn't cold enough to need it at the moment.

It was still early, but by then the cafeteria was open, so he went for breakfast. It was nice to be able to have a hot breakfast, he reflected. Back home, breakfast usually consisted of a bowl of cereal with milk, and maybe a banana. He sat at a table with a couple of other students, and the group chatted some about where they were from and what their elements were.

Eventually an announcement came over the intercom, saying the students should head to some auditorium. John followed the flow of people towards another building, presumably the auditorium. Inside, he cast his gaze over the crowd of students, noting that he wasn't the only one with dyed hair. Sure, there weren't many who had gone for color, but at least there were a few. He found a seat towards the front of the room, less than a third of the way back, and settled into it.

@Carlyle The old discord link in the OOC no longer works. I'd love a new link to the discord when you get a chance!

Also! I'm assuming they have a gym uniform for exercising in? John would have gone for a run early in the morning.

A P P E A R A N C E:

---

John is not a subtle individual. With his blond hair spiky and dyed sky-blue, he tends to stand out in a crowd. He could probably do to lose a little weight, but he keeps himself in decent shape, making sure to exercise regularly. He has light brown eyes, a squarish jaw, and an easy smile. He is always clean-shaven, and his stubble is light, making it less visible. His taste in clothing runs to graphic tees and jeans. He's not fond of wearing suits, and avoids doing so as much as he can. He has no piercings, but will occasionally wear a single screwback earring or ear cuff.

B I O G R A P H Y:

---

The second child of a suburban New York couple, John lived a rather ordinary life growing up. His parents had good jobs, so he wanted for little. He and his elder sister both attended public school, where John excelled at math and did decently at most other subjects. He found his passion for computers and robotics early, in a summer science camp he attended at the age of ten. His parents encouraged this interest, and John is now a blossoming young engineer.

Unfortunately, dreams of thunderstorms filled his sleeping hours several months before his eighteenth birthday, and John found himself packed off to the Merryweather Institute in short order. Lightning primalists are no joke. He misses his family terribly, but he's doing his best to stay positive, and looking for opportunities to make new friends.

P E R S O N A L I T Y:

---

John is an outgoing, friendly sort. He has an easy laugh and an easier smile. He does love a good prank, though he's too polite to play any himself. He's a nerd and a geek, and proud of both aspects of himself. He has an even temper, and prefers to let things go rather than fight. That's not to say he doesn't get angry, but he's mostly easy-going. His pet peeve is people that think they know what they're doing when they clearly do not, especially with electronics.

A B I L I T I E S / S K I L L S:

---

John has control over electrical currents and static electricity. He is cautious using his powers with his electronics, because he doesn't want to fry them, but he could probably charge his phone by hand if he wanted to. He is immune to electrocution, but when nervous or upset he tends to generate a small charge that manifests as a minor static shock when touched.

C H A R A C T E R N O T E S:

---

John is gay, and his family is aware and supportive.

I am back from my cruise! *wiggles*

Primality: Act 1

@Carlyle I should probably mention, I will be without internet for the first week of March. That doesn't mean I'm not interested, just that I'm out of town!

Primality: Act 1

@Crimson Flame We'll see what happens!

Primality: Act 1

I have a couple questions. First off, what time of year is it? Secondly, does the school require uniforms? @Carlyle

I've decided to go with my electrical boy, Johnathan. Working on the character sheet now. ^.^

Primality: Act 1

Right, I've read the OOC. *waves to @BurningCold and @Crusader Lord* Time to read the IC, I guess? And the character tab.

Primality [looking for new players]

I'm interested! I have two potential characters, so I'll have to choose which one I'm going with, but I'm interested. @Carlyle hopping over to the main thread to read up!
