Character sheets for the story that won't leave me alone

I have two for each trying to cover a lot of bases (and get stuff down before I forget it). So come meet Aneurin and Kaleo and let me know what you think.

Character Sheet

NAME: Aneurin Shyroth
BIRTHPLACE: Omhin

FAMILY INFO:
FATHER: passed on, TBA named later
MOTHER: TBA named later
SIBLINGS: older brother, younger sister, TBA named later
CHILDREN: none
RELATIONSHIP: gay, has no one in his life at the moment he was given a toy by his friend, Pherick.

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTON:
WEIGHT: 185 lbs
SKINTONE: fair
BUILD: he’s built decently, well muscled but not overly defined
MARKS/SCARS: none
NOTABLE FEATURES: his smile, cleft chin
VOICE: baritone
ACCENT: has a high bred lilting accent.

PERSONAL INFORMATION:
HOBBIES: he dabbles in art
HABITS: stands up for those who can’t do it for themselves, not afraid of his peers, has a habit of working too hard
JEWELRY: has a variety of earrings

PERSONALITY/HISTORY – Aneurin is born into extreme wealth. He’s very interested in science and would like to avoid politics but as Shyroth is a major house and he has a say in it, he can’t always avoid it.

He works far harder than most of his wealthy peers. He’s not dilettante in his field. He loves dabbling in art. He has had a very easy life in general. He was genetically designed for perfection in appearance and health. He’s never really had to struggle. He likes the family business of genetic engineering and pharmaceutical research but he likes the science end not the business.

He had a close relationship with his father and his passing is about the hardest thing Aneurin has ever dealt with.

He dislikes the economic gulf and finds it very unfair that children born to convicted criminal who are locked away in the slums face the sins of their parents. They aren’t removed from the slum and granted freedom. Worse, in the last thirty years, the accesses of the wealthy have gotten out of hand and he knows that the young born in the slum (along with the convicts) are promised a way out of there and a return to citizenship but it’s a lie. He doesn’t know where the unattractive or unruly end up but those with looks and can be broken are trained as toys, used mostly for sexual entertainments. Many of those have become very public. It’s fashionable to be serviced by your toy at informal meetings and parties. Aneurin tries to avoid those parties. He’s never wanted a toy until a clueless Pherick gives him one for his thirtieth birthday.

• Eye Color: Bright blue
• Hair Style/Color: straight, walnut brown, worn short
• Height: 6’3”
• Clothing Style: Given my life style, I have to wear haute coutre but usually it’s comfortable. I prefer black, blues and brown

• What You Think About the Most: My job. I’m a scientist working on genetically engineering plants to be cheap producers of medication and for highly nutritious food sources that can be grown onboard ship for intergalactic travel. My brother and sister do the business end of the company which is good since I have no patience for that
• What You Think About Before Bed: Why aren’t I tired? I should be tired.
• You Think Your Best Quality Is: My kindness and gentle nature. With my wealth and power it would be easy to be a monster.

Character Sheet

NAME: Kaleo (Charging Thunder)
BIRTHPLACE: Omhin

FAMILY INFO:
FATHER: he thinks it was a Gareis who was part of a rape gang. He doesn’t know his father is Ekain Charging Thunder, a high powered Gareis merchant who was his mother’s lover before she was sent down
MOTHER: Kattalin Eriso (so Kaleo thinks, it’s actually Jurryt, a very prominent family)
SIBLINGS: only child
CHILDREN: none
RELATIONSHIP: gay, was involved with Dovon until he went to try and earn citizenship. He’s now Aneurin’s toy

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTON:
WEIGHT: 155 lbs
SKINTONE: olive toned
BUILD: he’s wiry
MARKS/SCARS: He has two Gareis skin markings, one between his shoulder blades and one in the small of his back, both are dark, Fibonacci spirals (a highly sought after Gareis mark), has a long scar on his belly from a stabbing and other miscellaneous scars. He was branded with the Shyroth family crest on his right butt cheek after he was bought for Aneurin
NOTABLE FEATURES: his Gareis qualities
VOICE: tenor
ACCENT: has a slum accent, coarse speech.

PERSONAL INFORMATION:
HOBBIES: staying alive in the slum, he learned he can play music by ear and was making a living with it when he wasn’t stealing
HABITS: his fingers are always busy
JEWELRY: whatever Aneurin wants him to wear. Had a scrotal piercing done by the people who sold him, the dangle is the Shyroth crest. Aneurin wants him to remove it but now it’s a big fuck you to the world for Kaleo

PERSONALITY/HISTORY – Kaleo only knows that his mother was once rich but was blamed for her father’s murder and sent to the slums. He thinks he’s the result of a rape gang as his mother didn’t want him wishing for his wealthy father to move heaven and earth to save him from the slums.

When Kattalin was alive, their life was rough but not particularly miserable. Kaleo learned how to pickpocket and steal. She moved him to the outskirts of the slums, out in the more rural area onto a farm but he kept wandering to the city. He saw more opportunity there especially once he learned he had a talent for music, not that it mattered much in the slum. Some of the bars would hire him.

Kaleo fell in love with Dovon, a young man he grew up with and started his sexual explorations with him. They kept it as quiet as they could, trying to avoid getting swept up with gang life, especially the rape gangs. Kaleo ended up on the wrong end of that once and while he didn’t join in, he also didn’t stop them and feels guilty about that.

He was very close to his mother who had only one real rule. ‘Do not attempt to get your citizenship.’ She died when he was sixteen. For four years, he tried to obey that rule but she had never told him why and Kaleo assumed that it was because she was so bitter about what had happened to her. He and Dovon listened to the citizenship recruiter. Five years of work at one of the Major Houses and they could earn an i.d. chip and be citizens. Dovon’s sister got deathly ill so it was decided he’d follow Kaleo when he could.

Kaleo prays his friend never did. It was all a lie. He was put through psych tests/mind probes and slated for toy training. They hooked wiring into his hypothalamus to control his arousal and sex hormone levels by remote. Selective frontal lobe damage helped create a hypersexual state. Another device was implanted just over his collar bone that could inflict agony at a touch of a button. He was then turned over for toy training, strict obedience, techniques for blow/hand jobs, various fetishes, but they decided that they’d keep him for those who want to be someone’s first since they could get more money for that.

After a year in that hell, Kaleo finds himself the possession of some high class prick, Aneurin. He slowly learns that he could have been given to someone so much worse and that his master is actually a kind man. That doesn’t make him hate his life less. Kaleo has no control over his own body. Aneurin had the pain remote removed but there is nothing that can be done about the brain damage other than medication to suppress his sex drive which he does get. Still, he has no way of knowing if the feelings he’s developing for Aneurin are real or something born out of the master/toy relationship and all the hormones that constantly flood his body. Now he has an easy, soft life but being possessed completely has robbed him of any joy.


LAYER ONE : THE OUTSIDE
• Name: Kaleo (my last name is my secret, I promised my mother)
• Eye Color: inhumanely sapphire blue, slit pupil, multi-focal lens, perfect color vision at night, has light reflecting tapetum lucidum (so gets the cat-eye eye shine in the dark) - *That’s what Aneurin tells me any how. I don’t know what any of that crap means - Kaleo
• Hair Style/Color: straight, spiky, black, worn to shoulders
• Height: 5’8”
• Clothing Style: before being a toy, whatever I found in the slums that fit. As a toy, I’m lucky Aneurin usually dresses me like a living being instead of a walking talking fuck doll
• Best Physical Feature: my eyes are cool.

LAYER TWO: THE INSIDE
• Your Fears: that this hell will be my entire life
• Your Guilty Pleasure: I like it when Aneurin ties me up but you can’t tell HIM that
• Your Biggest Pet Peeve: Peeve? Are you kidding me? I don’t have peeves, I have full on anger inducing issues, like you know, my entire life.
• Your Ambition for the Future: to be a real citizen

LAYER THREE: THOUGHTS
• Your First Thoughts Waking Up: I’m still in hell.
• What You Think About the Most: how did it all go this wrong?
• What You Think About Before Bed: I wish I had died when I was born. And sex. Since they’ve fucked with my head it’s all I think about
• You Think Your Best Quality Is: My ability to repress the urge to gut them all.

LAYER FOUR: WHAT’S BETTER?
• Single or Group Dates: single. I’m a fucking toy. I don’t get a choice in this. I was a single kind of guy before my training.
• To be Loved or Respected: I’ll never have either so what does it matter
• Beauty or Brains: again, I’m THEIR toy, I don’t get a say
• Dogs or Cats: I had a dog in the slum once. It ran off one day.

LAYER FIVE: DO YOU?
• Lie: all the fucking time
• Believe in Yourself: I used to once but now, there’s nothing left to believe in
• Believe in Love: I loved Dovon once but love is gone along with everything else
• Want Someone: I want to be left alone

LAYER SIX: EVER?
• Been on Stage: yes, I used to sing for my supper literally.
• Done Drugs: yes but not often. You need your wits in the slums
• Changed Who You Were to Fit In: I grew up in the slums, who cared about that crap? Once I did, or at least pretended to be with a gang so they wouldn’t turn on me. I feel like shit about it to this day.

LAYER SEVEN: FAVORITES
• Favorite Color: do I have one?
• Favorite Animal: that dog wasn’t bad
• Favorite Movie: don’t get many of them in the slums.
• Favorite Game: anything I can make a quick credit from

LAYER EIGHT: AGE
• Day Your Next Birthday Will Be: The seventeenth of Honash
• How Old Will You Be: 22
• Age You Lost Your Virginity: I started with blow/hand jobs when I was about sixteen. Didn’t get popped until they made me a toy this year
• Does Age Matter: as if I get a choice

LAYER NINE: IN A BOY OR GIRL
• Best Personality: Someone I could trust
• Best Eye Color: never noticed
• Best Hair Color: who cares?
• Best thing to do With a Partner: I’m the toy. I do what they want me to do.

LAYER TEN: FINISH THE SENTENCE
• I love: freedom
• I feel: deeply ashamed, I feel my soul die a bit every day.
• I hide: that I’m terrified out of my mind
• I miss: Mom, Dovon
• I wish: for nothing. I think that part of me died.

They sound great! I especially loved their voices, which you made me hear with these character sheets. About Kaleo I like his anger best and I think it's charming how Aneurin wants to be a do-gooder. Especially since he wants to use the fortunate possibilities he has instead of doing it all the hard way.
I wonder, however, if it's part of the toy-training to accept being a toy. Kaleo doesn't seem to think about a lot of things twice, because his status tells him what to think about it.
I definitely would be interested in hearing more from them (and their relationship).
By the way ... how do you pronounce "Aneurin"? :)

Thank you very much.

yes part of the training was to accept the lot of being a toy. Kaleo has a lot of pride and didn't take that part of it well but after all the suffering he went through he's more than half broken.

I may end up doing a good chunk of this for nano as well as the one I'm SUPPOSED to be finishing.

Ah-new-rin (it's actually welsh but it looks so foreign that I figured it would work for 'strange SF name')

Not a happy young man. Even he gets a happy ever after, it won't be perfect

[identity profile] jana-denardo.livejournal.com 2013-04-03 04:19 pm (UTC)(link)
I definitely get the idea there's 2 books here and the happy (or as close as he'll get) will be in pt 2

[identity profile] evil-little-dog.livejournal.com 2013-04-04 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
I kinda figured that from what you were saying.

[identity profile] jana-denardo.livejournal.com 2013-04-04 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
damn sequel wanting books.

[identity profile] jana-denardo.livejournal.com 2013-04-04 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
I KNOW. dammit

Man, Kaleo had it tough and it would be a bad thing if he was actually allowed to act out.

[identity profile] jana-denardo.livejournal.com 2013-04-03 04:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Kaleo definitely got the short end of the stick and acting out may happen
