God only knows the consequences of me picking up another character, but this is too good to pass up.
Screenname: Syn (Mercenary)
Gothamite you would like to portray: Garfield Lynns
Alias Firefly
Class of society: (Choose one) Rule Breaker
Resume: (Brief character biography) Garfield was an orphan, along with his sister Amanda. They lived in an orphanage for most of their young life. Both children hated the parents coming to pick a child, because it only reminded them of the false hopes of a family. However, Garfield always took it much harder than Amanda, developing a hidden rage and anger within him.
Years later, when the two were eighteen, they went on and led seperate lives. Garfield went and pursued a life in visual effects, his mind always stuck on being a part of a fantasy he never had. He realized the dream by working on the sets of movies.
As his career as a visual effects artist progressed, Garfield suddenly found a peace he never had before. He found this peace in the soft embracing glow of the flames from the planned explosions on various sets. Watching the fires dance and flicker made him feel at peace, and gave him a conduit in which to channel his aggression. Garfield soon changed his occupation, and became a pyrotechnition on the sets of the films.
Garfield was happy for the first time in his life. He no longer had any stress, he worked in a nice enviroment, and his job was something that could help him relax. But as the years passed, Garfield soon found that his pyromaniniac obsession wanted more. The work on the sets didn't do it for him anymore, and Garfield soon began feeling the stress and anger of everyday life.
In an attempt to keep his obesssion, and continue his hobby, Garfield began starting small fires of his own. He started small, burning papers in metal containers or lighting small piles of leaves up. But once again, his obsession grew, and Garfield soon found himself fully delving into the world of a pyromaniac.
Now, Garfield still works on the sets of the movies and films as a pyrotechnition. But now, he has a dirty secret. A deadly secret. One that he intends on keeping hidden from everyone for now. He knows his obsession will want more soon, and Garfield is more than willing to give into it, and feed the fire burning within him.
Factoids of interest: (Special attributes - IE: Weapons, attire... anything needed to be known) Wears flame ******ent suit and mask ; carries flamethrower gun attached to tanks of hydrogen or other flamable gases on his body.
Known associates: (NPC's needed to be attached to your character) Sister: Amanda (Kelso) Lynns
Three integral reasons behind choosing the character: 1. 2. 3.
1. I couldn't resist this character for this RPG.
2. Taking a pretty decent villian who hasn't gotten his chance in the limelight in my opinion, and putting him in real life.
3. Pyromania.
Please provide a brief explaination behind your character's motivations (ex: What does he/she believe in? How does he/she connect with Gotham City? What grinds your character's gears?):
Garfield loves to watch things burn. He enjoyes the smell, the taste, the sight, the warm feeling of the fire, even the sound tantalizes him. His pyromania obsession is deeply routed in him, and it has consumed his life to a point where it is all he has. The only things that aggravates him is anyone or anything that gets in the way of his obsession. And he'll do anything to stop them.
