Name:
Lance Mercado
Age:
30
Gender:
Male
Race:
Human
Appearance:
Lance stands at six feet and ten inches tall. He has pale skin and straight, ashy blonde hair that falls just below his jaw line. He often keeps the back tied up in some way. He has narrow blue eyes. Lance is on the leaner side, though you couldn't exactly say he's particularly on the scrawny side. He likes to stay fit enough to be considered healthy. One might almost say he would be lanky, if not for his incredible posture. Lance wears glasses, mostly because he needs them to read, he can see without them decently, though he does like to keep them on pretty much all the time. He dresses pretty simply in more neutral colors, almost always in some form of slacks or khaki pants, and either plain colored sweaters or button up shirts. Though he seems to be more partial to black turtlenecks when the weather is appropriate.
Personality:
Lance is pretty quiet. He prefers to sit back and observe rather than be the center of attention. He's often found off reading a book in a quiet spot during social gatherings. Though he's quiet, he can at times be decently sociable and charming when he finds it in his best interest to be so. Lance does enjoy people, and company, but he's definitely the listener of the group and definitely doesn't mind it being that way. He will occasionally pipe up and add to a conversation should it pique his interest.
Lance grew up leading a pretty normal life for a child in a very wealthy noble family. He grew up focusing on his studies and was always a very studious boy, even when he was very young. From the time he could read, that's pretty much all he did. He thrived on learning new information. Cultures were his favorite subject. He loved learning all he could about the way people lived in different places, the things they believed in, and the languages that they spoke. He went to school to study language and when he was done with that he came home just in time for their family to sort of adopt a very strange new maid who would end up influencing he and his younger brother Aiden greatly while she lived and worked with the family. In the previous years he's been home studying with various scholars and traveling around to learn about new cultures. Recently he received a job offer he couldn't really pass up on after hearing where it was, especially after receiving a letter from his grandmother regarding a certain young lady he hadn't seen in some years.
