“^{how do you perceive yourself?}

[/sup][/center] LIKES --

• TV – He has a surprising love for TV shows. Generally anything from soaps to television series and occasionally movies. Generally he is huge fan of the idiot box and it isn’t wise to interrupt him when he is watching it
  
• Running – He loves to run, just and so on. Being able to manipulate the gravity around him, he loves to play with it when he is in the mood. Not really concerned for being noticed he will quite happily jump over people who get in his way.
  
• Fighting – Nothing tends to get his blood boiling faster that a good fight. He is rarely concerned if the fight is fair, in fact he prefers it to be unfair in his favour. Hence why he has a serious tendency to mess with his opponents gravity during a fight.
  
• Weapon Craftsmanship – In his travels he met many people who crafted knives and swords, he learnt the trade from them and over the years learnt to use his ability to quicken the process. When he is in a bad mood its normal to see him beating a skeet of metal into something.
  
• Painting – He learnt to paint when he was 18 for one reason and one reason only. Too pick up women. After a few years of practice it turned out that it worked pretty well too, women seemed to like having themselves painted – although he doesn’t do it often now, he keeps it up his sleeve for a special occasion.

DISLIKES --

• Do-Gooders – There are few things in the world Tobias hates more than incessant Do-gooders. The kind of people that will go out of their way to constantly help others and ignore themselves.
  
• People who disturb him – No matter what he is doing – he doesn’t like it when people interrupt him. Whether it is running or watching TV his first reaction is to punch someone very hard if they disturbed him.
  
• Work – Tobias despises any type of work, he will avoid it at all costs and will usually hurt someone if they try and make him. He earns his money of other peoples work and that’s the way he likes it.

WORST FEAR -- His worst fear is fire. He’s never really known why he is so abjectly scared of fire but it’s something that has been with him his entire life. If anyone around him goes to light a fire or something his first reaction is, as usual, violence.
BIGGEST SECRET OR REGRET -- The only regret Tobias has was not leaving Kerry sooner. Small towns were not to his liking.
GREATEST AMBITION -- Tobias wants to have everything and anything. Greed is a word that people like to throw around at every one, Tobias however is the living embodiment of the word. If there is something he wants, from food the clothes to a new TV or even a certain person – He will find a way to get it.
DEFINING QUALITY -- The desire to own everything he wants and to have a great deal of fun in the mean time.
IDIOSYNCRASIES --

• Boredem – Tobias is a man who lives by the code if I want it, I shall have it. As such he can’t abide doing nothing and gets bored very quickly.
  
• Lover of Food and Clothes – He is most happy when he has good food and good clothes. He would rather get into a fight with someone than sacrifice food or clothes.
  
• Loves to Play – Tobias loves to play with people’s heads. Take good people and convince them their values are wrong, driver them insane and so one – anything to entertain him.

[/ul]BIOGRAPHY -- Tobias was brought up in a large family, down south in the republic of Ireland. Like everyone in his area the great start of his life was peppered with the TV telling him how people where dying for a cause that he couldn’t even see the point off. Everyone felt bad about it but by the time Tobias was in his teens his lost the will to care. When he hit 15 he realised he could control the very thing that kept everything in its places. The greatest rule of existence was one which he could bend and break at his will – Gravity.

Before he discovered this, Tobias was always picked on, even in his family. Even though he was the eldest, out of the boys he was probably the least muscle bound. Sure he was tall and athletic but he had the blonde haired blues eyed things going on that always earned him the nickname of pretty boy. Before he discovered his powers he tries to be like boys were supposed to be, even though he did not like it. After he stopped giving a d**n what other people thought he let his hair grow out and bought clothes he liked. When you have the ability to drop a bully to the floor by thinking about it – the fear of being his own person was gone.

It was probably in these early years he gained his lust for everything and anything that may have been denied to him. If he could break the oldest rule of all time, the one which kept everyone in their places, he could break any rule and anything he wanted could be his. Yes he was caught, several times even. But never for long. When he was 20 he Left Ireland to travel the world.

Nine years down the line he picked up a few skills such and swordsmanship and he lost any of the patients that he may have still had when he still lived on his home soil. In different countries he had banks under different names with savings that he had not worked for. All in all, he had more than most people could dream for. But his major flaw – one that had haunted him from the start was that he was still bored, he still wanted more and he still wanted more excitement.

SAMPLE RP

Tobias loved the forest, especially at night. He even kept one out the back of his house; it was off limits to all the students as he hunted there. Hunting animals and small running children where never really two things that went together, especially since Tobias hunted with a traditional long bow. The same bow which was currently strung and hung from his back. The bow was polished to a perfect shine and strung tightly enough to give it at least a 120 pound pull. He’d left the school in the capable hands of his staff with advice that he would be gone for a few days on a hunting trip. Tobias’s mind was a mess lately, the smallest thing was pushing him into a violent rage, he had no want to teach the children and he could remember the last time he fed properly.
Tobias simply put this down to his age and the fact he had been doing the same monotonous task day in day out for several hundred years. So he was actually taking somewhat of a holiday, and a way to vent his aggression. Hunting had been one of the first things he remembered learning as a human, he’d learnt how to hunt and track when he was around 11 years old, after he was turned and as the centuries went by, he learnt each new weapon that humans hunted with. Although he was proficient with many guns and such, the main weapon of choice in this day and age, however he always went back to the long bow.

He loved the feel of it, and found it much more therapeutic than shooting animals. However even with the bow his own forests he knew every inch so it was no challenge. He knew exactly where each animal would run when distressed as he had hunted the same types of animal’s year in year out. In this forest however – it was new territory, he’d only walked through this place once or twice, he had no idea of the animals and it was larger than his own land. The air seemed that much richer, his ears didn’t even pick up on the sound or roads or traffic. It was perfection in its simplicity
