name; Tiberius (or Tibby for short)
gender; Male
personality;
Tibby tries to act tough and cold hearted, but he’s secretly just a sweet kid that wants to be accepted by someone, anyone. He gets super defensive when anyone mentions his mother, and will go on the attack to keep from feeling hurt by her, and he’s borderline decided to hero worship Desoto, who he feels is the perfect role model and someone no one would dare be mean to.
Tibby is a fighter and has gotten into many scraps in the past, as well as picking fights with bullies (in his mind he’s just taking out the tough ones, but to all the other children he’s something of a hero). Aggressive by nature, he’s often frowning at things, and rarely smiles unless he’s around Des or Charley, the only two adults Tibby will listen to without snark or back talk.
Someday Tibby wishes to have a place of his own, and regardless of his hard act and tough outer shell, he dreams of someone adopting him so he can distance himself from the life he had before, and the mother who never really cared for him. But, his normal every day self, is quite practical and ruthless. Tibby will get the job done and make sure of it before he collects his reward, he’s never let Des down and is proud of that fact.

Tibby is a trouble maker. He wasn’t always trouble, for as long as he could remember he was a good boy who tried his best to do the right thing, but why do the right thing all the time when everyone you met expected the worst from you? His mother wasn’t exactly the caring type and his father was only a made-up dream to him. Tibby, however, never let that get him down. What changed him was moving to a new town (yet again), and having his mother hauled off in chains for doing something he didn’t eve know about. For that he was placed into the orphanage and while the other kids were ok, he only had one friend. Everyone else saw him and thought of his mother and lack of father and expected Tibby to be just like her.
So that’s what he became. Trouble. With a capital, T.
Not only did he regularly sneak out of the Orphanage, but also pilfered food where he could and did less than savory errands for some of the seedier members of town. He took a liking to one of the bully boys, a viscet so tough that no one dared even look at him twice. A viscet by the name of Desoto.
This guy was, in Tibby’s eyes, the greatest male to ever live. He wanted to be just like Des, someone no one looked at sideways or at least someone no one messed with. Tibby did all sort of errands for Dis, and in return the older viscet paid him, and was actually nice to him, in a gruff way.
The best times were when Des sent him to Charley, Des’s best (and only) friend, the town’s glassblower who would delight Tibby with stories and show him how to blow glass, or work with tools. He picked up a job from Charley, pumping the bellows for him, but still worked for Des (he would choose des over Charley any day, even though Charley was by far, the nicer of the two.) doing chores and running erands. He liked to emulate Des when he was out and about and gained a reputation among the town children as someone you didn’t mess with, a reputation he was quite proud of.
He secretly wished Des or even Charley would adopt him, and unbeknownst to him, but Charley was thinking of just that.
