Ethnic Group/Race/Species: Caucasian human
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Date of Birth: 24th of June 1999.
Appearance: Norm has been known to have the appearance of a generic male. Short black, slightly untidy hair. Brown eyes. He is fit, but not exceptionally athletic.
Personality: Friendly, comedic and indifferent towards most things. Handles the absurd and strange surprisingly well. Norm holds empathy for newcomers to the Source, and will go out of his way to make them feel welcome.
Quirks: Constantly berates Erratik for his callousness. 'Defender of Earth' is a self titled thing, generally used as a sarcastic joke.
Likes/Hobbies: Hot chips, videogames, soccer. Admires commitment.
Dislikes/Nopes: Being bored. Cruelty.
Significant Other: Has a crush on the cashier girl he used to see every Saturday. He never learnt her name.
Family: Has a mother and father, and used to live with them fine.
Place of Residence: Previously Melbourne, Australia. Currently resides with Kaptain Erratik aboard the Electric Yargh.
Education: Finished year 12, never started uni.
Profession/Skills: Does not hold a profession. Is an average soccer player, and has average reflexes.
Source Prowess/Imagination: Doesn't have the greatest imagination, but uses his strong emotions/memories to develop powerful attacks and defenses.
Goal(s): Ultimately Norm wants to live a life with the cashier girl, but defending Earth is a prerequisite for that to occur.
Flaws/Fears: Norm fears losing his crush, or rather the chance to speak to her again. That emotional strength can cause lapses in judgement.
Backstory: Norm lived a horrifically mundane life, collecting milk and bread at the supermarket every Saturday. Living in an outer district of Melbourne, Norm finished high school and quickly lost motivation for life ambition. Taking a gap year, the only purpose Norm had was to make the trip to the supermarket every Saturday and purchase milk and bread. It was on these trips that Norm developed a crush for the cashier girl, who shared small bites of conversation as he moved through the register. She shared his ailment of boredom, but unlike Norm was determined to escape it and leave their suburb. Norm was content with this, believing that maybe one day he could go with her. This was where the traveller Kaptain Erratik picked up notice of Norm. Sympathising with the boy, Erratik saw him as an ideal recruit. And as such, Norm was whisked away into the Source and after coming to accept this new dilemma has been travelling with the Kaptain for around six months.
While Erratik may be the outspoken leader of the fight against the Daydream Beast, Norm uses his realist perspective to make sure things don't fall in on themselves.
