[/blockquote]
Name: Dean Robinson
Age: 18
Birthdate: March 22nd
Place of Birth: New York City, New York
Gender: Male
Alliance: Lawful Good
Weapon: Anya
Personality:
Generally being a calm, withdrawn person, Dean prefers not to fight, or even state his mind. He feels more comfortable acting onstage than being himself around real people. He finds himself flustered and not knowing what to say usually, especially with girls.
He's a smart guy, with a good memory for random facts and quotes. He tends to use the quotes in everyday conversation when he can't figure out what to say. Dean isn't really used to being wrong. He doesn't take criticism lightly, and is a chronic insomniac. He spends almost all of his time studying, and when he gets a bad grade, he works himself even harder. That's where the employee discount at Deathbucks comes in.
History: Dean was born and raised in the City. He hated it. The crowds, the smog, the idiotic girls who walked around wearing about as much fabric as a bathing suit on a cold, slushy winter day. His parents sent him to live with his aunt when he was 10. He attended public school for a few years, but when he turned 14, he got a scholarship to an arts school. And that was that. He spent his weekdays in classes on theatre and working in the on-campus coffee shop, and his days off, he spent at his aunt's house, in town. He excelled in school, but that didn't stop him from stressing about almost everything.
The summer after his freshmen year, he took a roadtrip with his older sister to California to celebrate her graduation. There, she met her now-husband, and fell in love. While she was swooning over her new boyfriend, he auditioned for as many things as he could. Failure became familiar to him, and he gave up. He didn't spread the word of his summer vacation when he got back to school. He didn't even point himself out when the soccer team was watching that episode of CSI he was an extra in.
Recently, he began to see souls, and freaked out. Dean thought he was going insane. He went to his aunt, insisting that she admit him to the asylum at once. She laughed. Turns out, his father's entire family were all meisters, except the man himself. She sent him to Shibusen, to start his real education. He now has a job at Deathbucks and is working on finding himself a weapon.
Powers: He's practicing seeing souls, and has quite the talent. He sometimes even 'turns it on' without realizing it until he sees little orbs floating in people's chests.
It's not quite a power, but Dean has a strong gut feeling that's usually right about people. He can tell just by the first impression if they'll be friend, foe, or otherwise.
Strengths: Instinct, speed, acting, memory, a talent at seeing souls, and he can make a mean carmel macciato.
Weaknesses: Impulsive, withdrawn, social skills, stresses easily over schoolwork, unrealistic expectations of himself, gives up when they aren't fulfilled.
Anything else?
