Haha, okie dokie then. I already got something all whipped up.
NAME: Ralph Buchwald
Introduces himself as "Vincent Spade" Will not respond to Ralph as he does not want to be associated with it any longer.
AGE: 26
GENDER: Male
Ht: 5'9"
Wt: 145 lb
Skin Color: Caucasian, pale.
Eye Color: Green
Hair Color: Black
Hair Style: Pictured
Facial Hair: Very, very sparse and terrible stubble that is almost peachfuzz and seems relegated strictly to a small potion of his jaw. Which is unfortunate for him as he's always wanted one of those tough guy beards.
Tattoos, Scars: So many scars you would not even believe. This tattoo on his right shoulder blade because he wanted something REALLY COOL SO IT HAD TO HAVE A SKULL AND KNIVES AND A SNAKE!!!!!!! He got it when he was 18.
General Clothing Styles: He wants to look like a tough guy gangster or potentially noir hero so he wears suits almost exclusively except they are not very well put together, zombie apocalypse and all! He never irons anything and usually wears a t-shirt under his shirts. Basically, he’s pretty sloppy.
Weapon of Choice: Oh dang, a weapon he's actually good with would be something long and blunt. (A baseball bat or longer) He's actually fairly strong, so heavy things he can use to swing at zombies would probably be his speciality, but his actual favourite weapon is the gun his grandfather left him, despite him being a rather piss-poor shot and it being an almost 80 year old gun. He is scrappy though.
What You Were Doing: That morning, he was fully planning on going to work, a restaurant where he is a cook, nothing fancy. It’s not like he actually gets to prepare anything too special or nothin’. it bein’ a chain and all, He lived alone so there wasn’t much to tip him off to the whole dang zombie apocalypse deal until he turned on the news to see if the weather would call for a long or short sleeved shirt. Well it looked like it actually called for him to stay inside and contemplate what the hell to do for a while after barricading his apartment door!
He decided, with the world (potentially) going to hell at the hands of a soulless undead army, it was finally time to live out the fantasies he’d spent countless hours dreaming up inside his head, usually inspired by some gangster movie or some cop drama. He’d become hardboiled! A zombie killing machine, dames swooning at the feet of the incredibly rugged and tough Ral- No, Vincent. Vincent Spade. Of course he entertained the thought of sticking it out as long as he could inside his apartment while everyone kills each other as well, but he’d spent 26 years of his life not living. Why die without even trying to become the person he’d always wanted to be?
He finally gathered up only the things his new persona would need after about an hour of monitoring his window and set off into the streets with only one goal in mind: “Be cool.”
Personality: Not terribly intelligent in any real aspect, he’s trusting of just about anyone who is kind to him. He talks a lot and has literally no filter, so if he’s thinking it, he probably says it, and it might occasionally hurt someone’s feelings. Naïve, kind of hot-blooded.
As much as he wants to have a devil may care, "I’m really hot shit, I’m so tough" attitude, he actually feels pretty bad if he upsets someone and is really compassionate, which is something he is working on hiding in an effort to be more like the cool ideal men he looks up to. (most of which were bad guys in films or the main cast of Goodfellas. Ever see the wire? Lots of bad role models for him in there too. Oh and Harry Lime too, what a cool fella.)
He’s a big admirer of the roaring 20s and awkwardly slips in outdated terms and lingo on occasion, sometimes incorrectly. He’s never been involved in any kinds of relationships due to being really hung up on his own identity. More than anything, he just wants people to think he’s cool. He wants to be the kind of person he thinks is cool which is a long road to trek for him, considering in reality he’s just sort of a big awkward nerd who gets way too fixated on things.
I always feel a bit silly tacking it on, but he’s probably a demisexual panromantic sort, when it does come to relationships… That being said, if the person he fell in love with did happen to be a guy, he'd probably be pretty confused/embarrassed because he wants to be an archetypal hero character and not too many of those guys are gay, heh. ...Not that I expect there’ll be a lot of chances for folks to be falling in love with brain eaters running around.
