Gender: Male
Age: 25
Year: Senior
Sexuality: Straight
Secrets:
-Used to be part of Nu Sigma Beta. Christian doesn't mind people knowing he used to look and be a little lamer when he first started college. He really doesn't want people knowing that he used to buy into the whole Greek system, 'brothers for life' bullshit. Since it was so long ago, before almost every at the college even started, and he looks so different now, this secret is pretty safe.
-On physics scholarship. Christian prefers to keep his gift for physics, and his scholarship on the down low. People tend not to think the musician thing is so cool once they learn that he is also a massive physics nerd. Of course he has shared this little secret with people, and some people just know, but his secret is pretty safe because it is so unexpected.
-Learnt to play music from his church choir days. Not a massive secret or anything, but it certainly is a little lame. Christian tends to tell people he learnt from his dad.
Personality
Christian has a boyish charm to him. He is always up for a crazy scheme or adventure all in the name of harmless fun. Though often he is called out for acting too recklessly. However he refuses to be part of anything that is at the expense of other people. He is frequently criticized for acting to much like a kid for his age, but he claims that he has the rest of his life to be an adult. People often find themselves drawn to his fresh and youthful demeanour, which is how he has rounded up a seemingly random collection of friends from all walks of life. Christian is a very easy guy to befriend, and once youâre friends with Christian, there is nothing he wouldnât do for you.
Anyone who is friends with Christian know that he is always goofing off. So unless itâs about physic or music, expect him to be unreliable. He is well known for neglecting his responsibility and obligations. He can identify his flaws though, and thatâs why he chooses to never make many commitments, he hates the pressure of being locked in like that, whether itâs going for coffee in a weeksâ time or getting a pet with someone. He also knows if he makes that commitment, heâs probably just going to let the other person down, and he hates disappointing people, even though he should be used to it by now.
Christian is rebellious at heart. Growing up in an all-male household meant he never really had any rules, he could do what he wanted, when he wanted. Which is where he got his taste for freedom. Now he canât stand rules. He hates being told what to do and being dictated to. He believes that everyone should have ultimate freedom over themselves and no one should be able to take that away. Hence he has a bit of a grudge against authority.
Surprisingly Christian can be incredibly dedicated. He was lucky enough to be born with two passions in life, physics and music. Both are very different, but Christian is equally dedicated to both, and although he enjoys goofing off and having fun, he is super serious and passionate when it comes to his music and his studies in physics.
History:
Christian is the youngest of five boys. Which is a handful for most, but his mother couldnât have been thrilled with her brood, she only ever wanted boys. Of course, thatâs just what Christian has been told, he doesnât remember his mother. Unfortunately she wasnât around for much of Christianâs upbringing as she died in a car accident when he was 5.
Other than that though, Christianâs upbringing was pretty happy and normal. As he grew older he found himself with two passion in life. Physics and Music. Christianâs mother had sung in the church choir and all of his elder brothers were into music, so the whole music obsession was not a surprise. The passion and talent for physics was a big shock for his whole family though, and none of them could figure out where it came from. In high school Christian, one of his brothers and two other friends from school started a band together. Christian is the lead guitarist and back-up vocals. The band is still together today and actually pretty successful. They play gigs in bars and things all around.
After graduation high school with top marks in physics, he received a physics scholarship to study at Cathedral University. So six years ago he packed up his stuff and started study at the college. Though the Christian back then was a much different Christian to the one walking around today. That was before he had any tattoos and piercings and he used to keep his hair neat and cut short.
Entering College he immediately applied to join Nu Sigma Beta, which he actually got into. He was excited and thought being in a fraternity would be just like back home, living with his four brothers. He was pretty experienced at having lots of brothers after all. Christian just did not blend in the culture of the fraternity though, he found himself not feeling like a brother to any of the other guys, and thought the majority of them were dicks. Then he found out that he only really got accepted because he was a physics nerd and they assumed they could talk him into doing their assignments.
Christian stuck it out for a year before taking a year off from college to focus on his music. After his year off he spent the next year studying abroad, before finally returning to college looking much more like he does now. He didnât return to the frat, and no one recognised him from back then, so he went on with his life. He is now in his final year of study, because of his two years not actually spent at campus though he is slightly older than his counterparts.
