Character's Name: Aeden Smith
Story they belong to and genre: Aeden isn't a story character--not quite. He's one of those "I have had this story in my head since I was seven!!!" characters. Uh. I'm sure you know the type. ^^; He's not precisely roleplay, though I have with him before. But his genre's modern fantasy, like, vampires on motorbikes modern fantasy (he had a 'bike once, but he crashed it).
Birthday: He doesn't know. The reason for this is long and involved. Traditionally, though, he celebrates it on the New Year, because, you know, easier to keep track of that way.
Gender: Male.
Height and Weight: 5' 11", lanky, graceful. I don't know how much a lanky 5'11" human man would weigh, but whatever it is, Aeden's about ten pounds heavier--just enough to make swimming a losing proposition.
Hair Color and Eye Color: White hair, red eyes (SHOOT ME NOW >.>;
General Build: Pleasingly put together. Back when he was in good condition, Aeden was well-muscled but subtly so, the sort you get from lots of running around on rooftops and climbing things, not bodybuilding. Also lanky, slightly. Androgynous good looks in the sense that if he went to a lot of effort he could pass for female; he's goodlooking, but not chiseled, not by any means. That young sort of face that you just can't really imagine growing up and getting a beer belly and midlife crisis car.
Lately, though, he looks like he's been run through the wringer (or the wars). Thin wrists, bony, tired--and with a certain skittish, animal glint in his eye from too many years sleeping under bushes and waiting to be woken up with a knife in his back.
He's also covered in scars, especially his arms and hands. And back. And front. He's led an exciting life, and has always relied on pure strength, quick healing, and pain tolerance rather than actual skill.
A few distinguishing Character Traits: Aeden used to be a really together guy, kind, talkative, willing to share information and food and give anyone a lift or a helping hand. Great sense of humor, really laid-back, as quick with a laugh as he was a gun. And he loved his job--which was hunting monsters, spirits, other vampires, and anything his beloved wife Rikki sicced him on. She was the brains of the operation, and the center of his world.
Then she died.
And he hasn't been the same since...reserved, hesitant, easily confused and sent off-balance. That's when you're not trying to kill him and he's not trying to kill you. Which kind of bewilders him, seeing as not too many people have fallen into that category, lately. And it doesn't help his people skills that he's been so hungry lately...
