Descdrop, in RP vernacular, means to drop in a head-to-toe description of your character while RPing. I don't tend to do descdrops unless I'm intentionally trying to write purple prose, since most of them are peppered with terms like 'sapphire orbs' and 'waving ebon locks'. (For the record, Andrew has neither of those.) But what I'm going to do here, for the sake of reference, is to do a descdrop of sorts for Andrew, so people can at least reference what he looks like without my having to inject it into every RP ever.
Onward!
Name: Andrew Martin-Krow, but he drops the hyphenated name.
Age: 18, going on 19 - decently old for an AI.
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 210 lbs. (~95 kg)
PB: Lorenzo Fiuzzi
How he ended up taller and stronger than either one of his parents still confuses him. Andrew is an inch taller than his dad and built like a linebacker - which is just as good, because he was a linebacker for a good few years in middle and high school. All of his weight is muscle, which honestly gets in the way as much as it helps. He's built like Tiki Barber and would prefer to be built like Alexi Lalas.
His hair is brown, like his mom's, but he got his dad's eyes: hazel, with faint touches of blue that he can't quite see but has been told that they're there. His hair falls in the unruly curls that both of his parents ended up with, and he jokes about his hair being his one vanity - a little like the line from Little Women.
Clothes aren't a huge worry for him. As long as they fit, that's what matters. All of his clothes, excepting underwear, socks, and shoes, are secondhand. He prefers it that way - after all, if someone else had the jeans first, that means they're already broken in. His wardrobe is mostly full of jeans and T-shirts, a few of them with football team logos.
Around his upper arms, between shoulder and bicep, Andrew just got matching tattoos: geometrically patterned armbands that he designed himself. He's planning on another tattoo over his scalp, but he's not gotten that done yet.
