Name: | Evan Friave-Goodlace |
---|
Male 20 Immune to fire and heat; autoconflagrant; extended lifespan; psionics (telepathy, teleportation, both currently latent); very clever with computers. Original Character |
Evan is an understated young man, given to slipping under the social radar. He tends to be a bit disengaged from the people around him, and is used to being overshadowed by more flamboyant personalities. When his curiosity is piqued he can be quite keen on whatever's interested him, which can make him much more engaged and engaging, or a lot more annoying, depending on how much the subject of his curiosity likes nosy nerds with endless questions. He's got a snarky, surreptitious sense of humour and an obscure kind of wit that's prone to odd logic leaps and doesn't always hit the mark. Intelligent and well aware of it, Evan tends to think a lot of himself, and judges others by his own high standards. He doesn't really understand people. Mostly his friendships happen because of some degree of effort on the other person's part, except those that have grown up around mutual learning. He's not given to malice or spite, and is a terrible liar. Cruelty won't ever naturally occur to him: if he legitimately doesn't like a person he'll simply act as if they don't exist. When he can, he prefers to be frank, if only because it's simpler. He's well practiced at common courtesy and tends to be self-possessed, as long as he feels reasonably steady. When he flusters he can get quite inarticulate, and is prone to retreating from uncomfortable situations or clamming up. With friends or colleagues he loves to share the things he's interested in and will spend hours in another's company sharing knowledge, working out puzzles or playing games: he's just not all that good at undirected social time. He's used to the vague sense that people think he's annoying, so if he finds someone who's genuinely willing to engage he can be quite earnest and enthusiastic, and all-around hard to get rid of. He can be an incredibly good listener as he tends to give it his all. Someone who's in his good graces can get him to do just about anything by challenging his sense of pride, but really, as long as it's offered in good faith he'll try almost anything once. He's got an intense ability to focus and a hunger for knowledge, which is his main driving force. It almost doesn't matter what he's learning as long as his brain is engaged, but it comes at the price of never quite being able to turn it off. Evan will get bored and antsy and even progress all the way to angry if he's forced stagnant for any period of time. He's happiest when kicking ideas around, particularly those that relate to technological or mathematical problems, or when learning about other places, whether or not he'll ever actually visit them. Evan, by dint of long habit, keeps his elemental skills under wraps as well as he can. Back home, people either already know what he is, or should never find out: either they're part of the supernatural community and know him through his mother, or they're regular humans with no context for elementals. He's practiced with his skills and is proficient with them, but even in the safety of home prefers to be subtle rather than flashy. |
