Tory is a boy of many talents. He's always been more creativity inclined. Since he was a child, his parents saw his interest in music and decided to put him in piano lessons. Seven year old Tory picked up on it very quickly and was soon as the top of his class. As he grew older, he became interested in learning how to play the guitar and even gave a few shots at writing music. Usually lyricless melodies, but they were beautiful nonetheless. He also discovered he had a very baeutiful singing voice. And in high school he discovered his knack for photography. He couldn't decide between photography and music, so his grandparents advized him to follow photography for a more stable future career. Still, his musical talents are undeniable.

He's not built to be buff. His shoulders aren't very wide, his legs are thin and compared to most guys, he's more on the short side. However, he's not necessarily a twig either.

At his job as a waiter, his looks gets him a lot of unwanted flirting from both men and women.

Always the optimist. Tory was basically born with a smile on his face, and yes, he's been through some hardships but he's always managed to bounce right back up. He enjoys life too much to give up.. A class clown. In high school he was that one kid in class that always made everyone laugh when they weren't supposed to, the one that laughs too loudly or too much, the one to make odd faces or incoherent noises when confused.. He doesn't mind making a fool of himself and being outrageous if it means he gets to put a smile on his friends' faces. One of the most selfless people you'll ever meet. Tory doesn't have a selfish bone in his body. He's always looking for the benefit of others. His grandparents always taught him that living for others is much more enjoyable than living only for yourself. Tory has always taken that to heart. He can be quite naive at times. He doesn't find it hard to trust people and will willingly give anyone his friendship. When in a relationship, he will give the other person 110% of himself. Because of this, some tend to take advantage of him, and regardless of how many times it happens, he never learns his lesson. However, he isn't a complete pushover. He's not afraid of standing up for himself or his friends when needed, and if you do him wrong once it will be extremely difficult to regain his trust. He can be fairly resentful in that aspect. It's not impossible for said person to gain his trust again, but it is extremely difficult. But he's loyal and if you treat him kindly, you'll have a lifelong friend. He also has a shy side to him, in the sense that he blushes easily when complimented, and finds it too difficult to tell someone he likes them. All of the relationships he's had in the past have been after the other person's confession. And the one time he did try to do it himself he was shut down. He can be quite the scatterbrain always misplacing or forgetting things or events. But overall, he's a sweetheart who isn't afraid to give his everything to the people he loves.

Tory's mother (of French descent) and father (of Korean/Chinese descent) met in high school. They were high school sweethearts and were even named prom king and queen. Towards the end of their senior year, his mother discovered she was pregnant with Tory. Though his father promised he would stay by her side through heaven and hell, he left her to fend for herself the moment they graduated. Luckily, her parents were kind. They helped take care of her during the pregnancy and helped take care of baby Tory while his mother worked to provide for him and went to school to get some sort of degree. Eventually she found a good, steady job and the two of them moved out. It was nothing but smooth sailing for a while. When he was only eight years old, his mother was scheduled to go on a business trip to France. His grandparents were more than willing to look after him while she was gone, and Tory didn't fuss. She was planned to be back a week later, but on her flight back there was a bad storm and the small plane was knocked out of the sky. They found the remains hours later, but there were no survivors. From there on out, Tory stayed with his grandparents.
He'd always been a strong boy, but after losing his mother, his strength and confidence plummeted. He was much more quiet during his middle school years and some kids took advantage of that and bullied him nonstop. For being too pretty, for being too quiet, for being too short, for being too smart. Anything they could really think of. It got to the point where he would cry for hours and hours because he didn't want to go to school the next day.
His grandparents were at a loss for what to do, so they moved towns and Tory started at a new school. His confidence was still shattered, just like his little heart,
but the kids at this new school were kinder. It wasn't long before he found a good group of friends. From there on out, Tory was on his road to recovery. He slowly regained the cheer and optimism he used to have as a child and by the time he reached his senior year of high school, he was one of the top social butterflies of the school. He was never an athlete, or one of the super popular kids, but he did make friends everywhere he went and was very loved. After discovering his talent and love for photography, he applied to several universities that would allow him to pursue that as his career with music as his minor. He was accepted to several, but something about this university in particular caught his attention. When he heard one of his closest friends would also be going there, his decision was made. He moved cities for the second time in his life to start a new path on his own.
