Description

Tall, of Medium build, pointed Jaw and Defined Cheek bones. His eyes are heterochromic; his left eye being Green and his Right Eye being a Steel Blue. His hair is A light Brown, though it often appears Black from dust, grime and the like. He wears a pair of Black Cargo Pants, ragged from wear, and a Blue Collared shirt with pieces of military issue armor sewn in and attached to it in an odd mismatch. The armor only covers his vitals, and his shoulders, leaving his arms free to work.

Personality

Toby is smart, funny, and friendly to most people. He has a smile that can let people in, and his good natured teasing always seems to bring a smile to someone's face. He goes out of his way to help people no matter who they are or where they're from, and often volunteers his abilities as a technician, which are great for the time and his age, to those in need at no or next to no charge.

That's when he's happy.

When he's angry or under fire, Toby is almost a new person. He curses, fires, and stares into your soul like the abyss all at the same time. His heart could freeze nitrogen and his blood runs colder than Ice when faced with a challenge. He never cracks under pressure, though his stare and shot makes many others do so. He is ruthless in combat, though he still often shoots to wound, if only to have a prisoner to interrogate. His duality and eyes reflect each other, his warm side being as inviting as his Left eye, green like an open field. His right eye as cold and dispassionate as steel.

Equipment

Winchester Model 1876 .45 Caliber Lever Action Rifle, Colt Mark 23 .45 Pistol, and a Chainblade; all resting over his shoulder, at the small of his back and his left hip respectively.

History

Toby's father and Mother were a Scribe and a Knight in the Brotherhood respectively. As a Scribe, Toby's father knew that ADV423 was not born-in to those with the disease, but acquired later in life. He raised Toby in a hermetic bubble, sealing him away from the world for many years, until his Mother could take no more of not being able to hold her son, and not allowing him to take his place among the Brotherhood of Steel, despite Toby's obvious natural talent with machines making him a welcome, and revered addition to the group. She left the Brotherhood with Toby for his own good,, intending to rejoin another group of them later, a different chapter. But they was snubbed by them, having left Steel once, some were unsure she wouldn't do so again.

She raised Toby as best she could in the Wasteland, until she died from ADV423 when Toby was 7. Toby lived on the Streets for a year before he met his Father again. His father, now a Brotherhood Elder, ignored him, despite Toby's memories of him and the caring man he had been when they had lived together. Some who know him think this is where Toby's cold side came from, and he left on his own, despite some members of the Brotherhood still wanting him to rejoin for his natural talent with high tech rifles and armor. Toby lived on the streets scrounging and making do with his abilities until he joined the West gang just this past month. He joined the West gang to try and cure the disease, making other not have to worry, and not lose their mother or father to the disease, one way or another.

So begins...
