Name: Guy "Teeth" Southside
Race:Human Class:Fighter, Unarmed Fighter Archetype Background: Life on the street is hard. For the abandoned urchins which populate the roads and back alleys of every major city, every day is a struggle to survive. Most don't survive long. But some learn that not only does crime pay, it's the only thing that will pay the likes of them. Guy learned this early, and the lesson stuck with him. It all started with a loaf of stale bread. He and some other gutter rats found a bakery which would occasionally throw away stale bread in the alley behind the shop. For starving kids, this was a gold mine. The bread was hard as rock, but filling. But soon, an older boy, one much bigger than them, found out, and would drive them away so that he could have the bread all to himself. They were devastated, the bread had brought them hope, and now it was gone. But Guy had a plan. He told it to the rest of his little group, and although they were horrified at first, he convinced them that they had no choice if they wanted to eat again, and the punk deserved it anyways. They decided to go along with his plan, all except one, Midge. Try as they might, they could not convince him to go along with it, so Guy decided to leave him behind. They followed the older boy until he fell asleep. They crept up to him, then all piled on him at once, holding him down. Guy sat on his chest, a rock in his fist, and started swinging. The boy was bigger, but was not strong enough to fight off six boys at once. When they were done, he was still alive, but Guy had bashed all his teeth out. When they showed up to the bakery the next day, the older boy was gone. Guy and his friends were excited and happy, triumphant in their victory. As they were dividing up the bread, their friend Midge approached them. They excitedly informed him of what had transpired last night, exclaiming the bread was theirs again. Midge approached to receive his share, but Guy stood in his way. The other boys looked confused at first, as Guy placed his hand against Midge's chest and gently pushed him away. "No, none for you." was all he said. Over the years, Guy engaged in almost every criminal activity you can think of, all in the name of survival. He learned to fight with only his fists, for those were often the only weapons available to him. He worked his way up in the world, from common gutter rat, to highly desired bodyguard and enforcer for the various criminal elements. Personality: Guy is evil, not Evil. He doesn't seek to harm others for pleasure, the service of some dark god or demon. He even tries to avoid harming others for strictly personal gain, up to a point. If someone has something he needs to survive, or tries to mess with him, he does not hold his punches. And he will feel absolutely no guilt over it. It's just how the world works. He has a very dim view of laws and society, having gotten the short end of the social stick his entire life, he feels no need to uphold any sort of rule if he can get away with it. That being said, he's usually a pleasant person to be around. He has a few good friends, and not the "minions or people I am using to further my own end" kind of friends either. Guy is very outspoken and bold. He enjoys making humorous and outlandish boast, and telling wildly improbable stories he swears are true. Having risen from such depths, he tends to have a positive outlook on life, or at the very least, his life. Ideal: It really was a perfect day, at least in Guy's opinion. The sun was shining, the early summer day wasn't oppressively hot, like it could sometimes get, and the various smells of the city were almost undetectable, thanks to last night's rain. Guy felt so good this morning, he decided to treat himself. He made his way to his favorite bakery, whistling a jaunty tune. His arrival was announced by the chime of a bell. He stopped on the threshold to take a deep sniff, the scent of fresh bread filling his nostrils. A kindly looking old woman looked up from arranging a tray of rolls and beamed at him. "Guy! How are you sweetie?" Guy smiled, "Absolutely perfect Mabel. Why, the only thing that could make this day any finer would be a lovely cinnamon roll. You wouldn't happen to know where I can find one would you?" Mabel played at looking pensive, her finger tapping her lips. "You know, I think I just might. Let's see if my lazy lump of a husband is done glazing them." After a few minutes of chatting with the old baker couple over a hot cinnamon bun, Guy said his goodbyes and made to leave. Just as he reached for the door, it swing open suddenly, and he was nearly bowled over by someone. That someone turned out to be a young man in a hood. No more than a teenager, if the eruption of pimples were any indication. The youth glared at Guy from under his hood, then shoved past him roughly. "Watch it." the lad snarled. Guy hesitated, torn as to what he should do to this insolent whelp. But he glanced at bakers, then decided to let this one go, for the sake of peace. He was halfway down the street when he paused, felling uneasy. Just to satisfy himself, he went back to the bakery. One glance was all he needed to know his feeling had been right. The boy had a knife out, which he was waving at Mabel and her husband, both looking absolutely terrified. At the sound of the bell, the boy whirled around, but Guy was already in motion. His fist collided with the lad's pockmarked face, and he collapsed. "Oh my! Guy, thank the gods you came! Are you hurt at all? Let me look at you." "I'm fine Mabel, he never touched me. You two will be fine. I'll take this ruffian to the constabulary, he won't bother you again." He dragged the groaning lad down the street, Mabel and her husband calling their thanks after him. When he was out of sight of them, he made an abrupt turn down an alley. The youth had been slowly regaining his senses, and he groggily exclaimed, "Oy, this isn't the way to the constabulary." "You're right, it isn't." Before he could say anything else, Guy grabbed his head and slammed his face against the wall, then dragged it across the bricks, leaving a red smear behind. He threw the lad down onto the muddy stones, followed by a swift kick to the guts. The boy wheezed and moaned, and managed somehow to get a few words out. "Huuugghh....the...the constabulary." Guy cracked his knuckles and regarded the young man thoughtfully. "You know kid, there's a lot of crime in this city. The constabulary have their hands full. I would rather we settle this here, like gentlemen, then waste any of their precious time." The boy tried to rise, buy Guy's fist slammed into his head, bringing him down again. "I'm just considerate like that." A few minutes later, Guy walked out of the alley, wiping his hands on a scarlet rag. He tossed the rag into a bin, then began walking down the street, whistling a jaunty tune. It really was a lovely day. http://www.rpgcrossing.com/profiler/view.php?id=45927 |
