Sure, why not. My characters tend to have a bad fate, though...
[spoiler]Deatheater, if you’re reading this, I’m still a little annoyed about the way I died in your first season. Not [i]that[/i] I died, I signed up knowing full well that would probably happen, but [i]how[/i] it was done. Because nobody likes being eaten by a cannibal named Sugar. Ok. Rant over.[/spoiler]
But I am providing this character knowing full well he’ll probably be the first to go.
Name: Gladion
Age: I’ll leave the exact number to you, but he’s fairly old. He’s getting on in years, so to speak. He’s not crippled yet, and he doesn’t [i]officially[/i] have medical problems, but he’s feeling his years. (My thought is somewhere around 50? Don’t want to offend any old fogies out there, though)
Personality: Complete and utter poker face. He’s seen it all, so not a whole lot fazes him. However, he is fun-loving, and he enjoys it when he knows other people are having fun around him. He’s kind of quiet, keeps mostly to himself, and is retired, so he has a daughter that takes care of him. Since he’s old, he knows that consequences apply to every action, so he tries to be kind and friendly to the people around him (read: his alignment is Lawful Good, from D&D, if you’ve ever played). He mostly just enjoys his life. He has a few old friends that he hangs out and talks with, but the one thing he’s passionate about is playing music. He’s [i]REALLY[/i] good at most musical instruments out there, including drums, piano, and guitar, to name a few. He may not be able to play the more dexterous of instruments so well anymore, but it doesn’t take a Dex stat of 20 to slam on some drums. Get him started on some instruments, and it’s likely he’ll only be done playing in a few hours, if not by the time evening rolls around.
Hair color: It’s clear he [i]used[/i] to have jet black hair, but now he has some gray streaks running through it.
Eye color: If I’m allowed to have non-traditional eye colors, then he has golden eyes.
Structure: He’s going to be slightly tanned from his years, but he’s still mostly white. He’s also fairly well built. He’s certainly no 7’ tall rugby player, but he’s still got it. He’s about 6’4” and 183 lbs. His muscles don’t show, but he’s still strong for his age (if you’ve ever met a drummer, then proceeded to arm wrestle him/her, you’ll know what I’m talking about. They look like they have noodle arms, but they are RIDICULOUSLY strong for how flimsy they look. At least the drummers I know look like that.)
Background: Actually, his backgrounds a bit of a mystery. The only thing that’s commonly known is that he used to be in the Navy, and he was [i]really[/i] good at it, but now, obviously, he’s retired. However, most of his missions and details on what he did is classified, so not even his daughter knows the extent of his career in the military.
[spoiler]Dangit, now I care about this character after having spent quite a lot of time developing him.[/spoiler]
Edit: If you want the full extent of his background, I can send it in a PM so as to not spoil the “surprise” on a public forum.

Actually, just PM it to me. The post is too big to add to the main thing, so I'll just copy it into my notes

Heh......how did you die again?
-
Sugar the Cannibal on floor 20-something, I think? I remember the death to the cannibal part vividly, though. I’d have to go back and scroll all the way back to your first season to find out exactly how, and that would take a [i]while[/i].
-
Candy, inspired by the Candy in Django Unchained. Yeah, you and MagicSpaceKitty died there. It was floor 13
-
Oh right, that was her name. Candy the Cannibal. Don’t know why I thought it was Sugar.
-
It was a dude not a grill I think. Turned out to be a giant squid, forgot the name.
-
Oh, my imagination told me a girl, because how would a dude be named Candy, but I guess that’s part of the irony.

May have been my only male character that had a feminine vibe to it. Gay I mean.
