Description

Iggy
Image

Full Name:
Ignatius Rey
Age:
18
Sexuality:
Bisexual
Appearance:
Iggy likes to have fun and enjoys life as it is so his usual appearance is nearly always smiling and friendly. He's on the tall side of average and may take a moment to tease a friend about it by creeping up from behind and then looming over them. He also has a habit of messing his hair around, making him less frigid and more like a wild, devil-may-care. His hair is brown, but sometimes in the sunlight may take on a reddish tinge. He has light hazel eyes.
Preferred Clothing:
Loose, casual clothes are his preferred style. Iggy can sometimes just grab some pants and t-shirt, throw it on, and announce that he's dressed. He wears anything that's loose enough that he can move around in since he usually is pulled into random games. For the dance, he is in a black tuxedo and tie though he'd probably wait for the last moment before actually tucking his shirt in, buttoning it up completely, and putting on the tie.
Role:
Fiery Red Male
Love Interest:
N/A
Skills:
Apart from being athletic, Iggy has a knack for mechanics. He can pull things apart and figure out what is wrong with it and then fix it if he has the necessary materials. Even if he doesn’t get a thing about the object he’s working with, he just enjoys tinkering with it (even if he accidentally breaks it because of that.)
Personality:
Iggy is friendly and not afraid to walk up to new people or respond if other people come up to him. He loves teasing friends and acquaintances as well as having fun. He likes pranking and takes to holidays like April Fools and Halloween with a vengeance. He goes all out with what he has. Sometimes, it can lead to him going to far with him acting and speaking before thinking and some people may be offended by what he says or does. He tries to keep an eye out on what the other person feels but sometimes he may be so wrapped up in his own thoughts or whatever, he may miss any warning signs.

Iggy is also a firecracker when truly angered. He drops all semblance of friendliness and will be practically spitting out insults and curses. Sometimes, he might even forego words and go straight for fists. He usually doesn’t fight physically if he could help it, but he does like that it can give him a “bad boy” image. For a while at least.

Distinguishing Features:
It may sometimes be hidden under his clothes, but Iggy always wears his necklace with a cross and a ring on it.
Charm Point:
His friendly and open character.
Likes:
- Sports
- Mechanics
- Pranks
- Music
- “Being cool”

Dislikes:
- People insulting his friends
- Being too serious for too long
- Rollercoasters
- Being ignored
- Being called “cute”

Fears:
Acrophobia – Fear of heights
Nosocomephobia – Fear of hospitals

History:
When he was small, Iggy’s mother died in childbirth of his little sister. Her wedding ring is what Iggy carries around with him with the cross. Iggy grew up as the protective older brother of a kind of air-headed sister who always drifted off in her own world. As such, he would sometimes get into fights over her and tried to develop a “don’t mess with me” feel so people wouldn’t bother his sister. His dislike of going to the hospital generally meant that Iggy made sure to get lots of information on how to do first aid so any injuries would be carefully cleaned and wrapped by himself to avoid having to go and get it looked at.

As his sister grew up and needed less help, Iggy started focusing more on his own life and found friends from school and other activities. Still lingering from his younger years is his want to be considered “badass” and “cool,” but he has more confidence in himself about that so he doesn’t worry too much about it. Despite hard times, his father also helped him become more carefree by keeping some together time in just going to the park to play basketball or run around and have fun.

Iggy wasn’t sure about what the heck the fiery red invitation was supposed to be about but decided he might as well attend the dance. It was something to do with his life.

Paradise
Come here, if you're tired of running
I'll be here, both on rainy and windy days
Come here, even if you heave a sigh
This place for your heart will never disappear
This is paradise

You've forgotten how to laugh, how to cry
You're losing sight of the meaning in life
And you whisper, "I feel lost and can't sleep at night"

But the fact you feel like you're only taking detours
Is proof that you're getting closer to the fragments of your dream

Come here, if you get lost
I'll be here, like I always have, unchanged
Come here, even if your heart is about to break
Please never forget the time we spent together
In that paradise

"Love is always accompanied by sorrow"
Just throw away those borrowed words
And tell me only words that you've learned by experience

You fear the glow of sunrise yet also fear the night
Don't give up; the game isn't over yet

Come here, if you're tired of running
I'll be here, both on rainy and windy days
Come here, even if you heave a sigh
This place for your heart will never disappear
This is paradise

More than anyone else in the world
I've been watching you
I'll speak sternly to you sometimes
But I'll continue to span a rainbow in your dreams

Come here, if you want to touch your dreams
It's okay to take a little detour
Come here, even if the sky feels too high
You're definitely not alone
Dreams never end
Paradise

So begins...

As the carriage rumbled along on the streets, Iggy gazed out the window, watching his surroundings fly by. Buildings, trees, people, cars. The horses' hooves clapped against the streets rhythmically, creating a steady backdrop of noise that lulled the boy into a slight doze. His eyes were glazed over as they stared sightlessly outside for his mind was far, far away from taking in the scenery. His hand reached up and tugged at the semi-loose tie hanging off his neck as his mind wandered. The letter hadn't really explained much - like the all-important why he was chosen. How had they known about him? And why was he going to this "ball" again? Oh right. Nothing better to do.

A sudden turn off the mainstream road caused Iggy to shift on his seat, jerking out of his thoughts. The road was changing, looking less used, and buildings and civilization seemed to be receding. Iggy stared outside, feeling vaguely interested at the change for a while before the interest drained out of him and he slumped down again. He reached into his blazer and pulled out the red letter, inspecting it for the umpteenth time. A change in lighting stopped him from looking at the familiar words as he looked around for the cause. Outside had become darker - and so had the inside of the carriage.

It seemed that he had entered forest and trees, blocking out the little rays of light there had been. Iggy glanced outside at the wide, thick trunks and some of the lower hanging branches that scraped lightly against the carriage in some places. The leaves rustled as they passed by. Iggy wondered how much longer he would have to wait. However, he had a feeling they were nearly there. Something about the forest implied that the journey was nearly at a close and the moment the trees dwindled away, it would reveal... Well, whatever the place he was going to.

Iggy went back to the letter even though he felt he had practically memorized the entire thing while trying to figure it out. He had searched for implications and subtext that would tell him more about the reason the ball was being held. He had tried to see if there were hidden messages in code or in invisible ink. By the time he had gotten to wondering if it was in an alien language that somehow also made sense in English, Iggy had realized that he had had far too much time on his hands. And of course, what better way to have something to do than to accept the letter's offer?

The carriage was slowing down. The hoofbeats were coming at a slower interval. They exited the trees. Iggy felt his eyes widen slightly. "That looks legit," he breathed. The mansion gleamed like a giant gem in the middle of the dark trees. It practically sprawled out, hinting that there was a lot more to it than even what was apparent at the front. The carriage came a slow stop, and there was a sudden almost-silence where the only thing Iggy could hear were the crickets and a slight ringing in his ears from the absence of the hoofbeats.

Iggy was about to step out before he realized that he had to tuck in his shirt, tighten his tie, and basically make himself presentable. Dad'll be so proud, Iggy thought with a faint strain of sarcasm. I actually look "respectable." Iggy chuckled at the thought. The door to the carriage opened by itself and Iggy blinked, before finally remembering that carriages usually had footmen or something of that sort. He shook his head minutely and finally, finally, exited the carriage. After a polite "thank you", Iggy slowly took a few steps towards the entrance. The carriage started into life again and rode off after he moved away, but Iggy barely spared it a glance as he stood still and gazed at the large entrance several feet away.

Well, it looks like I'm here...

He took a deep breath, reached up to feel for his necklace, and then cheerfully made his way towards the doors. He had a ball to attend to.
