Email: aspiecomic@gmail.comPicture: ^I like puffins.... Will this be an issue?Human Name: Emil Steillson
Country’s Name: Iceland
Personality Section: With a permanent stoic expression plastered on his face, Emil has always kept up an icy demeanor towards his fellow countries. In actuality, this is a front. Deep down Emil is a naturally hot blooded young country who is more naive then he’d like to admit and even a tad immature. His cold exterior was developed by years spent all alone on an island. These experiences have deluded himself into thinking he’s been abandoned or been through hell when, in fact, he’s just jealous that he was left at home while his older brother went off to venture.
While it is very rare, he has dropped his apathetic front revealing his true, hyper sensitive nature. These instances could range from manic fits of crying to violent rage. The only people that can seem to break him are his fellow Nordic nations, a squad that serve as a surrogate family to him. At times he tends to victimize himself despite only being the butt of the group’s joke maybe once. He tends to dwell on the past a little too much but isn’t afraid to move on when he needs to.
The three individuals he truly cares about are his pet puffin, the aptly named “Mr. Puffin”, the kindly Tino and his older brother Lukas. He admires Lukas for bailing him out on more then one occasion, but equally detests him for humiliating him and constantly exposing his true colours. However, Emil, whether he’ll admit it or not, has modelled himself after his brother. The sardonic humour, frank manner of speaking and dead pan expression; all an attempt to impress and out do “big brother”.
Roleplay Sample: It’s these moment I truly adore. These moments when the wall of sound comes tumbling down around me and there is silence, nothing but golden silence. I feel my dearly devoted puffin in my arms and I hold him in close to my chest. This feels like such a wondrous release. It may seem so small to the others here, hell, they haven’t stopped talking since they arrived at about 9 this morning, but to me these are what make conversations worth taking part in. The breaks between words. A good time to think, strategize, recuperate. I really don’t mind keeping up the usual wide eyed, tight lipped expression for too much longer. It’s almost 12. They should be leaving soon.
As soon as they exit I won’t have to try so hard. They didn’t use to scare me so much, these meetings. Now a days I can never be too sure what these.... these.... friends will pull next. Why do you keep inviting them here when all they do is crash on your couch, raid you fridge..... Fridge.... Fri- No! Stop that. Never a good time.... Well maybe I’m complaining just a tad too much. After all, these people are like family. One of them actually is family, I guess. “But if he gets me to call him big brother one more ti-“ Oh.... Oh no. Did you just say tha- They’re staring. They are definitely staring. Quick. Say something witty.
“Huh. Could have sworn I just thought that.” Of all things I had to say. Oh God. I’ve started a conflict. They have that confrontational look on their faces. Divert them. Drop the subject altogether! “You know.... Just forget it....” Good. The package is still intact. “Can I offer any of you something from the fri-fri-fri-friiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiidgahhhhhhh.....” And the package has been lost. Why did I have to make it weird?!? Go! Leave the puffin and go! Must leave.... NOW!!!
“I better.... I.... Show yourselves out....” I must be losing my touch at this game. I had it together this time. Honest. I really did. No matter, we’ll pick up the pieces later. First, get down the hallway- dart left! Enter first door on left. Good, slow down. Slow down. Open door. Enter room. Close door. Lock door. Approach bed. Grab pillow. Hold pillow over face. Now in three. Two. One. “......grrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrggggggggggggghhhhhhh...” Much better. Woah. Stay calm. Do not cry. Don’t cry now. I won’t forgive myself if I...... cry.... damn it.....
Anything Else?: As long as this is a world where the “AWESOME TEA GARDEN” is still standing, I’ll be satisfied.
