Welcome to Gaia! ::

A boisterous party goer often found around the college; While he’s perpetually one snarky comment away from trying to punch someone out, he's loyal to a fault to what few friends he might gather. (And just as likely to throw a few swings on their behalf.) He might not be your go to if you want Hallmark greeting card platitudes, but he’s got your back in a pinch.



Falco has only been living in Ashdown for about a year and a half, having moved here with his Uncle after a mysterious falling out with his former caretaker, his Grandmother. Since this was preceded by Falco outright -running away- for a week, it comes with a lot of food for the rumor mill, and Falco resents every bit of this. Especially the popular theory that he’s the problem. ‘He’s such a wild Child’, and no amount of study seems to entirely make up for his reputation as a party boy and starter of fisticuffs. It doesn’t help that he’s leaning toward a problem with ‘punch first, question second’ after a couple skirmishes. He’s trying to be better about this, but it’s hard to miss out on the fun stuff, or to pretend he doesn’t want to just haul off and give certain people a reason to stop running their mouths, even if it would make his uncle’s life easier.

Although he hoped to escape whatever he left his old home for, gossip definitely followed him, as one might expect when his otherwise childless uncle came home one day and renovated the spare room, and unloaded a seventeen year old with more unknowns than songs on his ipod. The story about how he came to be living with his uncle was slow breaking (A combination of his uncle sighing over the water cooler to sympathetic ears, and grudgingly trusting admissions over the lunch tables) and Falco… briefly… thought that the partial reveal might make the rumors stop, but instead they seem to have simply printed in stone that he’s unpredictable and possibly irresponsible, because -who does that- right?

I heard it on the Grapevine

"I know where all the action is."- Gossip happens just within earshot If something's going on, chances are, he knows about it or is about to know about it. No wonder he's got a party boy reputation.

ANYTHING ELSE?

The name Radio was originally based on “Radar” from M.A.S.H, Falco’s favorite character from the show when he was younger, but young Falco kept messing up the nickname, and calling him Radio. The nickname stuck… on Falco… and keeps popping up occasionally ever since. Just don’t ask if he has a teddy bear. (He might. But don’t ask about it.)

Age: 18
Height: 5’9
Appearance: Blond hair, olive green eyes, that kind of effortlessly athletic guy that everyone wants to be or wants to strangle. Maybe both.
Wardrobe: Possibly part of the ‘bad boy’ code, lots of jeans, lots of dark tshirts, but the fact that at least one of them is a ‘Dark Owl Records’ shirt might be fun...or maybe it just suggests his wardrobe isn't 100% plain black shirts and jeans.

Thanks Moonstone!
I made some tweaks (and put them in blue for now, except for the parts I cut out of the power and such) so hopefully a little better!

ADDED AFTERTHOUGHT- I'd like to see a name for his trouble, please?

OKAY! So I think maybe get rid of the "go-to for around town gossip" in his high concept- that's something you can build on with him as a Dreamer and not necessarily a core part of his personality/trope. Let's go ahead and edit that, maybe just make him like. A party-boy rather than a gossip source? Cause I mean, if he's partying and fighting, I don't particularly know if people are going to go to him as a reliable source of gossip, you know?

ALRIGHT BIG BOSS WE DID SOME BACK AND FORTH, SOLID SNEK CALLING YOU IN
