[Deleted User (V4)]

Name: Paul Patrick Winters
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Grade: 12th Grade
School: Bayview Secondary School
Hobbies and Interests: Online Gaming, Acting, Archery.

Appearance: Paul has short black hair, with a part on the right hand side (His right). It falls straight down to just above his ears and while it is usually kept rather neat, it can start to curl at the ends when it gets longer. He has a gaunt, defined face with visible cheekbones. He has round, blue eyes that appear slightly closed due to large eyelids, but this tends to go away whenever he speaks. His eyebrows, like his hair, are naturally black and curved downwards.

Paul's nose is thin, but longer than average and it is probably the most memorable thing about him at a passing inspection. His lips are average, not quite full, not quite thin, and his teeth are lightly stained yellow but not too noticeably. His facial hair grows quite fast, but generally is quickly shaved off.

Paul stands at 6 ft 1 and is 143 lbs, putting him as slightly underweight for his body type. His arms are muscular, but not so much as to be apparent underneath clothing. He has slightly pale skin and a small scar on the left side of his chest (Again, his left).

Paul traditionally wears long sleeved clothing of muted colours (But not black, although his favourite shirt is a long-sleeved spartan grey T. He likes trousers, or pants with a decent amount of pockets so he can keep things he values close to him. To finish off the ensemble, Sneakers are primarily what he wears both to and out of school.

Biography:Paul was born Paul Patrick Winters on May 25th, to Anna and David Winters. He had an older brother, Johnathon, who died at the age of 22 in a car accident. Paul was 10 years old at the time, and was unluckily in the car as well. His seatbelt saved his life, but a shard of glass stabbed into him. It wasn't deep enough to cause any permanent injury, but it left him with his scar. After that he was terrified of being in a car for many years, but now has cooled down to an reserved indifference to them.

His brother had been in college, having had decent grades, and Paul always wanted to not only follow in his footsteps, but take over from them when he got to his brother's age. He put more effort into his schoolwork, and less into his social life. Paul is not exactly socially stunted, but it takes time to warm up to people, and never during lessons. His brother's main failing that stopped him from becoming a great student was that he talked in class and got distracted, and so if Paul was to be better than him, then it was a failing he had to stamp out of himself. Despite this, he does have several friends who have accepted this part of his personality.

Part of his mind knows that this is not healthy, for the obvious reasons as also for the fact that it made him a target of bully violence. To placate this part, He took up activities that relied on other people, like acting. He was in a play recently, where he was above average but, as one reviewer pointed out: "He acts as if he learnt it from a book, not brought it from his heart" Playing MMORPG's also serves to ease his rational mind,while it also is fun to have to keep an eye on several things at once and try to juggle them all. Like a giant online machine. To this end he usually makes technical characters like Healers.

His parents made him take up a sport after a school report card warned that he was seeming like a shut-in. After trying a few, archery seemed very suited to him. It was all up to him in archery. HIS hand, HIS eye making the arrow fly true. There were no moving parts that could go wrong, like the team sports.

Being in his final year, Paul has had to think about the future lately. He would like to find a college out there away from where he has lived for so long, where nobody knows him, and wow them all. If he can get people to remember his name, then his brother would be proud, and when nobody can remember his brother at all but him, then they can share that pride together.

Advantages: Paul has strong arm muscles and good hand/eye co- ordination, passable acting ability, and the ability to multitask his situations.

Disadvantages: Paul's personality problems make him cold and distant to people he doesn't know. It also brings about a lack of team spirit and makes him a target for bullies. His fitness is only average as not a lot of full body exertion is required for archery.
