Name: Lance Stryker
Alias: ~
Age: 15 – October 25th.
Grade: Sophomore
Height: 5'4”
Weight: 100 lbs.
Eye Color: Blue.
Hair Color: Blonde
Appearance:
Lance has semi long blonde hair that ends just past his ears. He wears reading glasses at all times. He does not require them for everyday use, but he feels somewhat safer wearing the glasses than not. He would be considered handsome by some people, but he is perhaps only slightly above average. He tries to wear whatever is appropriate for the occasion, though his limited funds makes it hard for him to have many options.
Lance is very thin, bordering on underweight. Muscles are not apparent – on the other hand, bones are often quite visible. Skin seems to be woven tightly over his ribcage. He has a thick ropeburn like scar around his left wrist.
Personality: Lance is a nice guy, wants the best for others, extremely curious about the world around him. Spends a lot of time reading and exploring the world. But he is also shy and has a tendency to space out while scared and do things without thinking. Easily frightened and some would call him a coward. He often goes with plans for too long, getting him in deep trouble. Lance is very fond of acting - making himself believe he is someone else. He often entertains these fantasies for long.
Fighting Style: Lance's fighting style consists of three distinct steps that every fight he has ever been in has followed. First step: Attempt to run away. Failing that, he proceeds to the second step, attempting to disable/distract the attacker so he might have an opportunity to escape. Failing that: Lying in a fetal position and covering his head.
Strengths:
* Lance is quite intelligent.
* Is a very small target.
* Excellent at doing homework.
Weaknesses:
* Has no actual experience 'fighting', only knows how to be beaten up.
* Is quite small and lightweight.
* Has a very short reach.
* Wears glasses.
* Physically unfit.
History: Lance is the unfortunate offspring of a fling between a gullible young woman and a womanizer in the parties that led up to the Y2K. He vanished from her life as quickly as he had entered it. Two weeks prior to her 19th birthday, his mother gave birth to Lance Stryker. Lance grew up with his mother and the ever changing plethora of boyfriends. Some treated him well, others disregarded him and considered him a part of the background – tolerated only because of his mother – the last bunch were abusive to not only him, but only his mother. She never really stood up for herself and neither did Lance, didn't dare to make things worse for either of them.
Lance changed schools often as his mother moved around on the West Coast, never fitting in anywhere and his small stature was often the butt end of jokes. With age the verbal ridicule often turned into physical abuse. School days were a hell, high school had a sliver of promise to be different. It was different – only because it was worse. Students were more violent it seemed. Teachers physically reprimanded kids if they had forgotten their homework. Lance just kept his head down, did his homework and tried his best to be invisible to the world.
It might have worked~ if only he didn't seem to have a knack for being at the wrong place at the wrong time. Despite never ever throwing a single punch in a gang fight nor ever been associated with any gangs, Lance has been in detention four times because he was at a fight between two gangs and could not get away before he was wrapped up in the fighting. Once he was blamed for physically assaulting another kid because a knife had been tossed and he, by reflex, had caught it... The stabbed person had turned around and quickly decimated Lance before any explanation could be heard. Lance woke up in the hospital with several broken bones. Rehabilitation took quite a while. Despite the pain, this stay at the hospital was perhaps the best in his life. Peace and quiet from school. By the end of the school year he returned to school and while in the hospital, Lance had done the idiotic thing and told what had actually happened. One day as he was leaving school, he was grabbed by the man who had actually stabbed the other kid - and his friends. Dragged to the school gym, Lance was not alone. Another person had also been taken, a girl he had chemistry with. Rumours had that she was the reason for the stabbing.
Lance was found in the burnt out carcass of the school gym once the flames had been quenced. He had no memory of what had happened. They never found out what had happened. It was assumed that the delinquent Lance Stryker had burnt down the gym on purpose and had been trapped inside by the flames. He was not the only person found alive inside. A badly burnt down corpse had been found not more than ten feet from him. They had tried to ask him what happened, but his memory had been burnt out.
The girl had perished in the fire.
He was immediately transferred to the only place that took in hardened criminals like him... PHS #552. His mother stayed behind in California. Lance found himself all alone in a school that ate nerds like him for breakfast.
Residence: Lance lives in the PHS #552. Currently his room is extremely sparsely furnished, he currently owns a chair and a mattress to sleep on. He lacks the funds to do anything about this at the current time. He even uses his coat as a blanket at night. The shared bathroom, when working, only spits out ice cold water. The kitchen facilities are a hazard to use.
Other: Lance seems to get texts now and then from people who demand he does odd things for them. He doesn't know why they send these messages nor their purpose, but most of the time he ends up in trouble if he follows the texts, but almost always worse if he doesn't.
