I Used To Be Bunny Luv

PostPosted: Fri Aug 04, 2006 1:48 pm


Username: I Used To Be Bunny Luv
Who recruited you?: I saw a topic in the Registered Guilds section.

Name: Morgan Edward Karr
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Height: 5' 11"
Weight: 135

Race: English
Social Class: Noble

Appearance: Standing fairly tall and thin, Morgan Karr is a handsome figure whose age is such that his appearance is just beginning to reflect manhood. The last vestiges of baby fat in his face have disappeared, leaving a lithe and thin head topped with long, black hair. This hair, reaching down to his shoulders, is worn back in a ponytail and held in place by a thin ribbon. With his intense dark blue eyes and boyish face, with a tall forehead and set jaw, Morgan is often described as "quite handsome." Though thin, casual soccer and hunting, traditional pastimes of his family and social class, have left him with a wiry frame. His shoulders are thin and his frame slightly feminine, hiding his strength from most. His clothes are refined but modern; his father has vowed to move the wealthy Karr family into modern times. As such, Morgan usually wears a fitted frock coat, a waistcoat, a shirt of either linen or cotton, a necktie, trousers, and square-toed shoes. Colours range, but Morgan himself prefers lighter tans for casual wear, while darker colours for formal and evening wear. He tends to avoid hats, but has allowed himself to be forced into a driving cap when outside on several occasions. In all honesty, he enjoys wearing the driving cap, but is worried that it would clash with his refined attire.

Personality and Character Flaws: Raised and bred to inherit the family name, young Morgan is very outgoing. He easily makes friends, using both the influence behind his social position and his strength of character to influence others. Confident and self assured, he tries to influence events around him and control his own life. However, Morgan does have a way of being too controlling, and will often get annoyed and angry if he doesn't get what he wants. He also tends to rely heavily on his family name, which can make him come off as a bit of a prat. Still, he is very skilled at making new friends and tries his best to be open to all people, regardless of social class. He enjoys listening to others, and, though a good conversationalist, is good at speaking without actually revealing things about himself. Because of this, he keeps secrets very well and tends to be rather distrustful of others when they begin to pointedly ask personal questions. As a young noble, there's really no reason for this beyond paranoia at sullying his family name.

Background: For much of his life, Morgan was raised at home and taught by private tutors. Intelligent and determined, he did well in his classes and excelled in social situations, often entertaining guests when his parents were forced to step out. Most of his childhood was spent at his family's estate in Lancashire, a property which had been in his family since the Battle of Hastings in 1066. At fifteen, he grew tired and bored of life at home. Turning to his parents, he demanded that he be sent to a school outside of their estate, and he left home for the university at sixteen. Morgan's father is a rich banker and has considerable influence in politics. He regularly attends House of Lords meetings in London, causing him to be away from home quite a bit. This fact made Morgan resent his father growing up. However, the young heir to the Karr name still respects his family and goes to great lengths to make them look good. Morgan's mother was a runaway from another influential English family. When she was a teen, she joined the circus and became known as the "Most Beautiful Girl in England." Seeing her at a show, Morgan's father fell deeply in love with her and the two married when he found out her heritage. As for the Karr family, they are a distinguished family of Scottish descent. In 1066, they received a large parcel of land in Lancashire in return for their services during the Battle of Hastings. Personal favorites of Duke William of Normandy at the time, they quickly grew wealthy and influential.

Skills: Morgan is very skilled at manipulating people to get what he wants. He speaks very well and is incredibly confident, and he excels in his classes. He is a decent soccer player, but is better known simply as being charming and sophisticated. He is also interested in machinery, though this passion is restricted to a hobby due to Mr. Karr, who believes that invention is for the middle class.

Belongings: From home, Morgan brought his own sets of formal and casual clothing. He also brought several books to read in his spare time, some tools for mechanical invention, and other general school supplies such as paper and pens. On his person, he carries his family signet ring, which bears the Karr coat of arms - a red flag with a white, upside-down V containing three red stars underneath a knight's helmet. On the band of the right is engraved his family motto, "Sero sed serio," meaning "Late, but in earnest." He also brought with him a hunting knife with a fine iron blade and an ivory handle, an heirloom passed down from the Battle of Hastings.

Character secrets: Morgan is attracted to boys, though he dares not tell anyone for fear of discrediting his family name. He is also terribly afraid of snakes, and tends to avoid classes that teach about them.

Anything else?: Karr is a real last name, originating in Scotland. The family was first seen in Lancashire on lands given to them by Duke William of Normandy after they aided him in the Battle of Hastings in 1066. The Karr family is actually a very distinguished Scottish surname. (I'm also related to them on my mother's side)
