Name: Three guesses. I simply cannot believe I am joining an RPG about a backpack. *sigh* the things I do for fun…
Age: 14
Where you found this: Shameless Ploooog
Character Name: Deke Malhotra
Age: 14
Type: dwarf
Physical Appearance:
Deke has a darkish-tan frame that he would call “muscular” if he didn’t know it was a lie. Although he is constantly the subject of family jokes for his great height, he stands barely 3’9’’ above the ground. Unlike most dwarves on Earth, his head and limbs are perfectly to scale with his height. Deke has an amazingly low and rasping voice. His face is devoid of all emotion, with the exception of his eyes, which can almost speak if you could only see them behind his glasses. He tries his utmost to disguise the fact that he’s a rich boy, but one can usually tell anyway. (see family)
Deke uses a strange-looking axe with an extremely long blade. He hates people to watch him while he practices, and only does it alone in his room as a sort of meditation.
Personality:
Deke is rather detached, peaceful and sometimes downright spacey. His emotions change at the speed of a crippled sloth through molasses. As a result, he is usually in a state of either mild contentment or gloom. Quiet and laconic, he absorbs all serious conversation, almost never blurting out. When he does talk, he has an annoying tendency to be deep and poetic. However, he is skilled at starting conversations.
He makes friendly acquaintances almost automatically, but it takes a good while for someone to win his loyalty. When someone gets to that point, Deke will hardly even think before laying down everything to help them. On the other hand, his few enemies are the target of a dangerous, near-instinctive loathing. (more in family)
Family/Life Story:
He has only one older sister, who has since left home and was talkative and rather domineering. Instead of siblings, several cousins whose parents had died live with the Malhotras. His father, a seldom-seen workaholic, owns an insurance company, which has a near monopoly on business in the port city where they live. His mother stays at home, raising the many cousins, all of whom are under 10. Needless to say, the family is very wealthy. Deke hates this. He gets far more than his share of Upper-Class Guilt, and is generous to a fault.
In his life, he has never really encountered much tragedy or danger. He takes everything from a philosophical standpoint, even the recent deaths of his aunts and uncles. Until his father signed him off to school, he had no real sense of purpose and did not have a career goal. He is totally new at the school, and is still in a state of mild shock, as he had never ventured beyond the city before.
(is that enough?)
I have a tektek here, and I have the imageshack linkies, but I haven’t the foggiest idea what to do with them. Help…!
