THEODORE CONNELLY

[attr="class","perhead"] THE CHARIOT

[attr="class","egoistic"]PERSONALITY

[attr="class","perbox"] A crude, immature punk with few friends but lots to say. Cannot seem to keep his mouth shut to save his life, nor does it seem like he intends to do so. A comic book nerd and weeboo, he spent his childhood fantasizing about becoming a hero, and realized by his adolescence that if he ever were in a such a story, he would probably just be one of the civilians running around like headless chickens. Disgusted at himself for coming up with these realization, he unknowingly made it one of his life long goals to proof himself wrong.[break][break] Unlikable and unsympathetic to almost everyone he meets, he nonetheless has a history of getting into altercations over other people's problems. Though egotistical and mostly selfish, he still holds onto his ideals of what constitutes as a 'good' hero from when he was a child. Unfortunately, he has yet to learn that simple deeds don't make a hero. His personality is at complete odds with heroics, and even when he manages to help people, they are bound to push him away due to his abrasive, blunt personality.
[break][break]
Blunt and forward, if he thinks something about you, he is likely to say it outright, directly to your face, no matter what this opinion may be. His sense of self-preservation appears to be faulty at best, which goes rather well with his extreme drive to succeed at anything he does. He is always looking to prove himself, and takes special delight in proving naysayers wrong and rubbing it in like salt on an open, gorey wound.

One of the few good things that can be said about the punk is his surprising work ethic. He is known around the bronx for manning multiple jobs at a time. From working at the warehouses in the early morning, to selling ice cream at the local parlour, if there's a job available, he is willing to take it. Being a nerd/weeboo is an expensive way of life. Perhaps it is because he has worked so many jobs that he appears to have a significant variety of unrelated skills.[break][break]

[attr="class","egoistic"]BIOGRAPHY

[attr="class","perbox"] Born and raised in the Bronx, Theodore Connelly is the lovely result of the american 'Group Home' system. Who were his parents? Who knows. Probably a teenage mother and a dumbass, quick trigger father. Theodore never really thought much about it, didn't have the time while dealing with the others kids. His name was apparently a source of amusement to his peers,much to his frustration. [break][break] Blunt and forward since he was young, he never really managed to get adopted, always finding a way to fuck up the little interviews with the prospective parents. The caretakers at the 'Group Home' simply got used to having him around permanently. He received his education at a public school, and was raised on old comic books and lots of TV. During his youth, his admiration for the heroes in the comic books and cartoons drove him to constantly get his ass beaten by much larger kids. [break][break] Brash and overconfident, his heroics were generally met with disdain from both the bullies and the bullied. The bullies wouldn't take him seriously, and the bullied didn't want him to just make things worse for them. This behavior would follow him into adulthood, with his nose suffering the most from it. It, along with his face, would be very prone to getting smashed.

Once he grew up and the system was no longer obligated support him, he found himself with his ass on the streets, living on the couch of an old lady who didn't seem to care he was loud, brash and rude. It is very possible she was deaf. The woman seemed to like his company, and he could has never been able to figure out why. Regardless, this allowed him to save just enough money to afford himself a certificate program at the Bronx Community College. A year later, he was, for all intents and purposes, a Mechanic. Having a piece of paper assuring everyone that yes, he did have actual, marketable skills was, unsurprisingly, not all that helpful. It was still hard for him to find a job. He was willing and, for the most part, capable, but his personality tended to rub possible employers the wrong way.[break][break] Luckily, there was one man who gave absolutely no craps for Theodore's shitty personality. An equally brash, loud man, owner of a moving company. He simply saw a tall, reasonably fit young man ready to work, and immediately put him up to it. Though more lanky than his musclebound co-workers, Theodore found himself right at home surrounded by loud, brash jerks with more brass than brains. [break][break] From that job he jumped into construction, and from there into more... menial labor. He wasn't making money as fast as he would have liked, but hey, at least living with the old lady, who didn't seem to mind having him crash her couch. Or decorating the surroundings of said couch with his crap. Comic books, manga volumes, figurines, portable gaming consoles... What little money he saved for luxury, he seemed to waste on 'cartoon' related knick knacks.[break][break]Still, frustration was beginning to build within the impatient young man. He was determined to succeed in life, no matter how crappy a start he had. He was willing to work hard for it, to take the high road. Yet it seemed like he couldn't even make enough money to get himself an apartment that wasn't ass. Even if he completely mooched off the lady and saved every penny, he couldn't afford to buy a good apartment. Rent would be too expensive as well. Mostly though, he didn't want to mooch off the old lady forever. He needed to make it big, and do it quick.

[attr="class","egoanswers"]If you don't succeed on the first try, who cares? Try again and again until you WIN!

[attr="class","egosurvey"] WHAT IS YOUR IDEA OF PERFECT HAPPINESS?

[attr="class","egoanswers"] Making it big! Your name the one everybody knows, your life the one everybody wants! Make it big through hard work and I assure you, you'll have no regrets when you die!

[attr="class","egosurvey"] WHAT IS YOUR GREATEST FEAR?

[attr="class","egoanswers"] I don't fear shit! No man, no thing, being a failure, nothing! Just because I haven't reached my goals yet or haven't even gotten close, it doesn't mean I never will! 

[attr="class","egosurvey"] WHAT IS THE TRAIT YOU MOST HATE IN YOURSELF?

[attr="class","egoanswers"] I'm good as I am. People don't want to be around me, that's their problem. Most of them are just damn wusses. So maybe I'm not exactly nice or  like doing things my way? People can't all be soft-spoken pushovers, right?

[attr="class","egosurvey"] WHAT IS THE TRAIT YOU MOST HATE IN OTHERS?

[attr="class","egoanswers"] Damn condescending pricks! They think they can just talk down to you for whatever reason! Richer? Smarter? Better looking?  I don't care which, don't you dare think you are better than me!

[attr="class","egosurvey"] WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER THE MOST OVERRATED VIRTUE?

[attr="class","egoanswers"] Good looks! They don't amount to nothing! I can't believe there's people all over the world getting rich over being born prettier!

[attr="class","egosurvey"] ON WHAT OCCASION DO YOU LIE?

[attr="class","egoanswers"] Guess if I can see some point in doing so? I prefer to just tell people what I think point blank, frankly. 

[attr="class","egosurvey"] WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER YOUR GREATEST ACHIEVEMENT?

[attr="class","egoanswers"] I'll tell you when I make it rich! For now, uh... Guess it would be financing my own higher education.

[attr="class","egosurvey"] WHAT IS YOUR MOST TREASURED POSSESSION?

[attr="class","egoanswers"] My old comic books from the Orphanage are the only thing I've held onto since I was a kid.

[attr="class","egosurvey"] WHAT IS THE LOWEST DEPTH OF MISERY?

[attr="class","egoanswers"] Accomplishing damned nothing with your life. What a waste of an existence.

[attr="class","egosurvey"] WHAT DO YOU MOST VALUE IN YOUR FRIENDS?

[attr="class","egoanswers"] Some damn backbone! I want people I can talk to for real, no sugar coating, no mincing words, no damn pussy-footing!

[attr="class","egosurvey"] WHAT IS YOUR GREATEST REGRET?

[attr="class","egoanswers"] I was apparently never good enough to be adopted.

[attr="class","egosurvey"] HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO DIE?

[attr="class","egoanswers"] Not killed by some goddamn punk like a friggin' extra, that's for sure. I refuse to die before I make it big. I'll die peacefully in bed once I've achieved everything I set out in life.
