Bedlam (A Survival RP)(Needs Members)

[el3ctr1c]

"Don't worry about it," Ethan insisted "If he needs to be scared off or reprimanded, there plenty of people here to do. In any case, they'd be more than happy to scream at him, get some of their own tension out. How are you holding?"

[Somewhereinneverland]

"I'm fine. Just a bit shaken, but fine." He nodded. He finally stopped glaring at katt and dylan.

((Still accepting? My character's drawn in an anime style but he's meant to be designed as a character you might meet in real life xD I can draw a more realistic version later if you like, just wanted to join an RP and this one seemed interesting. Some of the image is cut off, so click it for the full view.))

Name: Faulklin Joel Foster
Nicknames: Sometimes affectionately called “Mr. Pessimistic Emo Boy” by those that know him well.
Age:17 years old(appears closer to fifteen)
Origin: Northwest U.S.A.



Personality: Faulklin is very standoff-ish and hates people(with an exception to a very small few). For the most part he's quiet and reserved, doesn't talk much to anyone and prefers to stay well away from others as well. If people get too close, bump into him, or try talking to him he has the nasty habit of being overtly rude to them and making them go away or not want to talk to/be around him so that they'll leave him alone. He can also be very jumpy, and suspicious of everyone around him, because he trusts next to no one. He has a strong aversion to anything even vaguely related to romance, and has a hard time expressing his emotions like most people. For those few he does trust, the small exception that he doesn't hate, he can act entirely opposite of how he treats other people. Somewhat shy, gets embarrassed easily over gestures of affection, and is very clingy and possessive of them, and can't stand to be away from them for very long, being very dependent upon what relationships he does form. He also gets scared of possibly alienating or pushing those few special people away, having some significant abandonment issues, to the point that he can become suicidal even. As such, he's very protective of them, and would throw away his life in an instant in order to protect them, but for everyone else, he’d leave them to the dead and the dogs in less than a second and feel no remorse. He has no regard for his own life and is entirely unafraid of death, and frankly doesn’t care if those tendencies land others in trouble(except the very few he cares for and trusts).
He also has a strong love toward animals of just about every kind(which is one of the only instances guaranteed to show his good side) and is very intelligent, besides being incredibly socially challenged. Owing to being abused as a child until being adopted by another man and his younger, teenage sister only a couple years ago(in his history), he can sometimes suffer anxiety attacks from things other people do or gets very tempermental and lashes out at them.
His trust CAN be earned, but it's extremely difficult, and interacting with him can be very frustrating at times, but for those lucky enough to earn that trust he is undyingly loyal.
Beware though, he can be dangerous if you piss him off or hit a raw nerve, in which case, it would be wise to either run or find something to defend yourself with because he’s not above seriously hurting/trying to hurt or even killing/trying to kill someone if they manage to piss him off enough(read history).
History: Orphaned as a child, as far as he knows his parents abandoned him because they did not want him, or at least that's what he was told by the people at the orphanage. The man who ran the place was abusive and when he was ten years of age he got fed up with it and ran away, but he ended up stuck with someone that was worse(his scars are a testament to this). Eventually he killed his abuser in retaliation and ran away again. Not having experienced much of any kindness he could remember, and thinking from his experiences that people didn't deserve to live, he attacked others but was caught by police and taken in. He had a rather twisted and jaded mindset and it was decided who would be committed to an asylum/correctional facility rather than jail, and met a man who was much kinder who sought to show the boy that not everyone was as he had experienced, but it was a hard and long process and while the boy learned to open up and care for a couple of people, he is still wary and untrusting of most, and tends to act like a jerk because of it. Eventually he was legally adopted into that man's family and released from the asylum, while that man and his younger sister continued to work to help him recover from his past and learn to live in society. Since then he’s taken on horseback riding and the martial art of Kendo. His guardian had decided it might be a good idea for them to take a vacationary cruise which landed him in this predicament.(I’m debating on whether or not to include the other two, probably not, or perhaps later if I do.)
Habits: Often makes flippant and off-handed comments like "I'm just broken beyond repair" or "I'm just evil like that" when people point out or try to correct him on his pessimism or rude commentary. Tends to avoid people as much as possible; He'll tolerate them if he REALLY must, or will stay near the group(at a distance) but for the most part he doesn't want anything to do with people if he can help it. When he’s irritated he gets a tick/twitch in the corner of his good eye, and when people manage to piss him off enough he makes it very clear they should shut up/quit it or he’s going to (at least try) and hurt them.
Pet Peeves: Hates complainers, he can be very self-centered and tends to view most others as having it easy by comparison of himself. Likes animals and would rather see a person die than an animal get hurt(not including humanely killing an animal for food). Doesn’t like to be without his sword, which doubles as a cane, because it makes him feel more unprotected and vulnerable and gets very edgy about it being out of his reach or someone else getting it/trying to get it.
Turn-Ons: Not really anything.
Turn-Offs: Everything, pretty much. Strong aversion to even completely innocent touches, much less kissing or anything beyond that. Aromantic and asexual(meaning not attracted to anyone of any gender/sex).



Hair Color: Naturally brown, with bleached blond.
Eye Color: Blue(only one, the other is damaged and sealed shut)
Body Shape: Very lean, like he doesn’t eat enough, bordering anorexic, but is slightly muscular like he works out.
Clothes: Anything that covers(long sleeves, pants, etc) to cover his scars(doesn’t like them to be visible). Usually black clothing, when available.

Kat

I smiled. I leaned slightly into him, still looking up. I wanted his arm around my shoulders again, but didn't say a word. I couldn't believe I was falling for a guy, about to years older than me. I blush and look at the group below.

Dylan

I detached myself from Kat by stepping slightly to the left. I wasn’t too keen on being glared at and though Logan stopped for now, I am not giving him an excuse to start again. What am I doing? Taking advantage of a girl who needs help, that is low even for me. I scrubbed my dirty face with both hands and sighed. I am going to control myself; I thought to myself, I can control myself. Nervous laughter bubbled up from my stomach; was I becoming hysteric? I took a deep breath to try to calm down before I worried the other people.

Ariena

I love to run, it is so freeing, like I am flying. I jogged for a bit, letting the wind play off my cheeks. I closed my eyes for a moment and almost missed two survivors. But how could I miss the bright red hair that belongs to the pale beauty? Instead of wasting time with introductions, I waved my arms around excitingly to get their attention. Once they both were staring, I pointed to the direction of the group. They saw it, stared at it for a moment before looking back. I gave them the thumbs up and took off further down the beach.

[Somewhereinneverland]

Kat looked at Dylan. She looked at logan and glared at him. She hated logan trying to scare off people she liked. Dylan was one of the only people she actually, cared about. She hated how he thought, just a guy two years older than her was going to take advantage of her. "Just ignore him." Kat begged.

Eva

Eva stood, waiting for this new group to approach. They were all pretty young, and there seemed to be some sort of tension between all three of them, whether it was sexual or potentially life-threatening. Eva figured she may need to keep an eye on them. She caught their names: Logan, Kat, and Dylan. As Ethan spoke to the dark haired boy who called himself Logan, Eva took it upon herself to address the others. “Hi. I’m Eva,” she offered a hand to the girl. “You’re Kat, right?” she looked over at the boy, “and Dylan?” They each nodded or responded with a ‘yes’. Eva broke into Ethan and Logan’s conversation to address the entire group, “So, have we come up anything about where we’re going to sleep tonight? Whether we’re going to have a fire or not? Etcetera, etcetera,” she made circular motions with her hand to trail off the sentence. She had overheard that someone wanted to yell at someone else.

Adonte

I noticed that Ethan was playing good leader and talking to the new survivors. I doubt that girl is going to find many more people alive. “Well, in my opinion, I think we should wait until Ariena comes back with the rest of the survivors so we have to only explain it once.” I said in my best lawyer voice. If Ethan’s plans should be bad, I would just debate with him in private. No need to emasculate the leader in front of his followers.

[Somewhereinneverland]

Logan tried to ignore kat and dylan. He noticed his sisters glare at him as dylan moved away. The fact that the guy wasn't able to be read, made him confused. Dylan was a bit too mysterious for logan's taste.
