Accountant

Male
Orientation:
Heterosexual
Appearance:
Graham is a rather tall fellow, from head to toe he stands at a height of 6'3". A bit stocky for his height, a steady combination of muscle and excess body fat, he weighs in at a total of 227lbs. His hair and eyes are his most captivating features. His hair a radiant, well kept blonde, the bangs parted to the right in the front. His eyes are a deep, golden hue, warm and inviting. As an accountant, he usually dresses in his professional attire, a long sleeve button up shirt ranging froma wide variety of colors, with a tie with the same variety, and matching suit jacket and pants. His favorite tie of mention is the smiley face tie he wears on Wednesdays to keep everyone in the office in good spirits.
Reason for playing LAIOS:
For Graham, gaming started out as nothing more than a hobby. A way to relax after long number-crunching hours at his firm without having to drag himself back out of the house to socialize. When he heard of LAIOS, a virtual reality world unlike any other before it, he couldn't help but buy it. Ultimately he found it to his liking, the first real gaming experience that offered him a complete escape from reality. Thus he focused more of his time into the game, giving up almost any chance he had at an actual reality social life.

The in game avatar is a little shorter, coming in at 5'11", and is a lot lighter, only weighing 140lbs. He is bald and well toned, a rather athletic build, something Graham had always wanted for himself. When he chose the Demon race at the beginning, he started out with a different appearance that developed as he progressed in level. What were once small rounded nubs are now smooth, jet black rounded horns that begin on his forehead, staying snug to his skull to a couple inches above the nape of his neck, just above the ear lobes. His wings, which began small and riddled with veins, like that of a bat, but he was able to customize them as he progressed, now they resemble owls wings, jet black as his horns, a little smaller than that of normal demons his level, allowing him for better maneuvering in airborne combat. There were also markings, they began as distinct flame like marks around his wrist, and by the time he had made it to level 84 they had gone completely up to his shoulders, and orange and black marvel of roaring flame. His armor is quite simple in terms of appearance. He wears hand wraps for his gloves, a steel chest piece, leg wraps and ninja tabi boots. Having chosen hand to hand combat as his class, he utilizes no weaponry, save for his fists. His chest piece is emblazoned in the middle with the symbol of his guild, a bold crescent moon.

♦ Treasure Hunting - Taking it on as an occupation so he could find the rare treasures hidden throughout the game. If he has no use for them, he will often give them away to someone who could make use of them, or sell them and use the profits to further his guild or purchase items for others.
♦ Music - Listening to music in the game relaxes him, helps him unwind and remember what it was like in the real world, when he wasn't trapped inside a game.

♦ Giving up - Some people have actually submitted to this being their home for the rest of their lives, and he it irks him to think of their loved ones watching them wither away.

Strategic ღ Generous ღ Bold ღ Goal Oriented
Being a finance manager at an accounting firm, much of his actual personality carries over into the game. He is constantly trying to come up with better ways to budget his time, resources and guild functions. This pairs well with his occupation, given the rare items often have a fluctuating market value, and with his experience inside and outside of the game he is normally able to predict what items will go up or down in price. He was able to excel quickly in his guild via his strategy and comprehension for many of the game's aspects. In his time outside of the office, Graham was a bit different than he was in the game, being more of a homebody, willing to stay home alone rather than act like the social butterfly he is in the game. He feels a lot more comfortable behind the mask of the screen, as it gives him more of a sense of security.
Giving in to a different spectrum of his personality in the game, he is often actively asserting himself into social situations, trying to make himself and his guild more well known as people to come to for help, and one of the best hopes they have of getting back home to the real world. As much of the time he likes to keep himself serious and focused, he spends just as much time keeping people in good spirits, reminding them often that this is a game, and it can be overcome if they keep working at it.
Deep down he has always had the desire to help people, though his career may not be the best way of doing it, he tries to make up for it in the game now that the scenario has changed. To get as many people out of the game as possible without dying is his long term goal.

When Graham first started playing LAIOS, it was merely a way to escape the grips of reality for a while, and release some pent up aggression every now and again. Before the change he would have been considered a bit of a solo player, not bothering with associating with other players unless it was necessary. He got deeply involved with his one character progression, which is why he went with the Treasure Hunter occupation, to get better gear and more money. It was another office for him, a more fantasy appealing, adrenaline packed office.
That all changed when the GM announced the new feature, that anyone who dropped to 0 hit points would be permanently removed from the game, and promptly killed in the real world. At first nobody took it seriously, but once people weren't able to log out the feeling of being trapped started to settle in. This perhaps caused something to click in Graham that he needed to try and help others. Safety in numbers, so they say. When it became a struggle for survival he was more than willing to use his experience to make sure other people progressed. That is when he joined in with the Lunar Glade guild. They seemed goal oriented in finding a way out of the game with the least amount of killing possible.
Since then he has spent his time bettering his guild and environment. He is often searching for rare items with the hopes that he might stumble across another way out of the game, assuming the other way out was hidden in the same way a rare treasure would be. Whatever spoils he gains from his ventures are put into his guild, which often are used to either better equip the members or offer help to the players less involved.
Other times he will offer his spare time assisting the efforts of the Phoenix Blight guild. Though he may not agree with their desire to kill the GM, he knows that a backup plan is essential should they not be able to find the alternative exit.
