though he was born as rory markus hughes, he unofficially changed his middle name to finlay at the age of fourteen. he doesn't know why, but he just prefers finlay. he tells nobody that he unofficially changed his middle name because he sees that that may be taken as illegal - perhaps he just overthinks everything.
rory is aged nineteen, and was born on the twelfth of february - a cold and windy but sunny day. the twelfth of february was quite significant for rory's direct family, as it was the day his parents got married.
his general ethnicity is irish, but he has australian in him. he was born in the irish letterkenny, yet his parents came from the city of canning in australia. his parents decided it was fun to move to new york as soon as rory was born - they landed themselves right into the war.
indeed of the male gender, rory acts an awful lot like a feminist - for example, he would prefer to be a fashion designer than be a football star or something.

rory has swoopy chestnut hair that is suspended above his eyebrows, which nobody tends to like, thus he's rather insecure about both that, and his general appearance.
he has, in a 'boring' way, hazel eyes. he doesn't overly tan, nor does he burn, but rory has tannish skin.
he stands at an average height for his age, and weighs an average weight for his age.
with no body modifications, rory is pretty 'bland'._________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

two words to describe rory would be, in respect of the raccoon, are irresponsible and vicious. irresponsible because, well, quite clearly, he isn't responsible. he tends to mess anything up - purposely or accidental; vicious because he is.. vicious. also, rory is a moderately quiet person, and tends not to speak until spoken to. he has quite good manners for a boy of his age, but is clumsy - extremely so, at that - and he hates it.
rory likes;
- mint. mint plays, surprisingly, a mass part in rory's life. this is because he tends to get paranoid or stressed, and chewing on scarce mint leaves helps. a lot.
- music. any type of music is good music to rory. simple.
- being independent. doesn't everyone?
- not being in charge. he'd hate to be seen as a bossy, arrogant person.
- dogs. he just does.
and, dislikes;
- lava lamps. pointless, aren't they?
- loud noises. he has sensitive hearing, countered by his terrible vision.
- crowds. sweaty, loud, boxed in... eyuk.
- not being trusted. who enjoys it, after all?
- the silence. it's awkward and he hears too much.
