I'm so glad I found this community... It's just what I needed!
I decided to start of with Folant. I have some art and writings involving him
here. (Link goes to my entries tagged with him)
1. Your Name
Folant Attaway
2. Your age
39
3. Describe yourself
Extremely tall compared to most others. Although I'm somewhat skinny I'm also keep my body in good condition. I spend most of the day working inside so I've stayed rather pale. My eyes are a bright blue color that's common in my family. I have dark, blackish hair that's starting to grey (Eve says I'm a silver-haired fox... I don't want to know what that means). I like to keep it somewhat short and neat, although it tends to never stay that way for long.
I work all the time, avoid relationships, and am somewhat paranoid. Also claustrophobic. But all of these behaviors are founded.
4. Describe your mate (if applicable)
I don't have one at the moment, nor am I looking for one.
5. Where (and when) do you live?
Currently living in Line 2, which is reminiscent of 1940s Earth. I live about half a mile from a rural small town, which itself is about 20 miles from the nearest city.
6. What's your favourite sweet? (It is so a basic!)
I'm rather fond of Lemon heads.
Tell us about...
Your place of birth.
I was born in Line 1. The Attaways, my family, were fluent in society so we lived in a rather nice house. Although this house has probably since been taken over by some Apprime government man...
Your childhood.
(I'm still... plotting out the finer details.)
Things went well for most of my early childhood. By 15 I was already helping my father with his government help, and by 20 was part of my country's equivalent of the US's FBI. Our family had some problems, mostly with my mother's drinking and my father's anger, but it was all well concealed behind closed doors. I tried to protect my mother and brother as much as possible... Things were bad sometimes, but could have been much worse.
Your parents.
Were largely good people. Their marriage had been arranged but they got along well enough. My father worked for peace and was an honest politician although he would get violent at home sometimes, especially as work got more stressful for him leading up to the Great Change. My mother started to drink as I got older. Many people wanted to distance themselves from our family and my father was often away at business so she became very lonely.
Your siblings
I had one younger brother that was killed during the Great Change by the Apprime royal family... They haven't admitted to it, but I know they're the ones who did it -- or at least paid for it. Sometimes I think he's still alive, but I know that's just wishful thinking.
He was about three years younger than me.
Your (current) home.
I live in a large victorian-style house with Evelyn and Lettie. It's on the edge of a farm owned by a kind old couple. I love that it is so close to nature, but sometimes I worry about Lettie's safety seeing as were far away from a good hospital and the police force is somewhat... Lacking.
Your favourite "hang out".
I don't have time to "hang out", although I do enjoy being outside.
Can you read?
Rather fast, yes.
Can you write?
Yes. And I've been told I have good penmanship.
Can you sing?
No.
Can you play an instrument?
I used to be able to play several traditional Carrier instruments, but I'm sure I've long since lost that talent.
What languages do you speak?
(I haven't named the languages yet... /bad creator)
What weapons can you use?
I'm best with guns, especially handguns. Although I don't use them much anymore, I still keep some at home and work.
