Beginnings

Rough Stuff

Red and Black- the world around him had turned red and black. Without rhyme nor reason, crimson flames raced across the barren earth as scorched buildings unleashed billowing pillars of black and putrid smoke. The whites of his tiny eyes had run red from tears, and the vermilion and ebony that poured out in front of him bathed him in a unique, new light. In this place everything was lost: The people who had loved and cared for him were naught but black ash, the world he had loved and took for granted was crumbling around him beneath the wretched flames that lit up the night, slowly but surely turning everything into black ash.[break][break]

The first time Glenn could remember having the dream was at the age of six, where it then became a reoccurring nightmare that would visit him every few nights since then. It wasn't necessarily easy being blessed with the affinity of Summoning: It was exhausting, well beyond the point of 'running a few laps' or 'practicing some new spells'. This made it that much harder to deal with, but as time went on he learned to deal with it in his own ways.[break][break]

Despite how much he moaned and groaned about the responsibilities his parents dumped onto him as someone who would inherit a blessed power, it wasn't much of a surprise to see him turn out as he has. While Glenn may come across as a friendly and carefree young man, having a sensitive and kind nature is what really caused him to hate things like 'conflict' and 'war'.[break][break]

Instead of turning a blind eye to these things, Glenn wholeheartedly looks them in the face. Given his troubled dreams and fortunate upbringing, he's willing to fight if it means protecting his friends and loved ones rather than just for himself. He's a very philosophical kind of guy despite his young age, and is a bit atychiphobic from his 'trial and error' in practicing magic.[break][break]

It's grown into an obsession over the years, and despite his sometimes lazy attitude he's in fact a very determined individual who will go to great lengths to succeed or correct the wrong doings of others, even at great personal cost. Glenn often prefers to practice in private and away from prying eyes, giving him the air in public that he might not be trying as hard as others (if at all).[break][break]

This paint's him as a 'reluctant hero', a man who acts not because he necessarily wants to but rather because he feels he has to for the sake of others- due to his affinity and personality. When he's not trying to sleep, entertain women or have some fun it's quite common to find his nature turn taciturn as he goes about his duties.[break][break]

Given this rather fickle way of doing things, Glenn first and only choice was of course the Jester's Den, where he hopes to make use of his magical abilities (when he wants to) to benefit others (that he may happen to like as people); using a very eccentric cover so that others' don't see how much he's putting on his shoulders and how it may truly be affecting him.[break][break]

Glenn is a slightly above average looking twenty year old man standing at 5'10", with long blonde hair that falls around and in front of his face. He has a very 'young' and sometimes 'innocent' look to him, being somewhat of a baby face despite how serious he can be with his bright blue eyes.[break][break]

More often than not, he's seen wearing an almost 'regal' outfit in stark contrast to his lazy and sometimes slobbish actions. He himself prefers to keep things simple, and when he can get away with it will often wear simple clothes that you'd see sold in any regular, common store- though hes more often than not forced to wear fancier things, albeit often wrinkled as he neglects to take proper care of them.
