Age: 16
Grade: 11
Birthday: 11/11/xxxx
Appearance
Height: 5”7
Weight: 130lb
Eye Color: Grey (contacts…)
Hair Color: greyish-blond (dye) visible black roots.
He has pale skin covered with old burn marks. He also has a scar/stitches down from his bottom lip (He won’t say how he got it – probably did something stupid though).
He is of mixed race: Half Korean, half Northern European...
(((I’ll draw more of him eventually --- like a reference sheet… with colour…)))
Personality:
Ethen likes to go his own way, but is not a classic “Rebel”. He is not a risk-taker as he has a strong need stay competent and collected, safe and secure. He sometimes comes across as unreasonably cold and calculating, but really he just doesn't want his feelings hanging out in public. He needs to be useful, productive and worthwhile so he can feel respectable in the eyes of others. He’ll take up small tasks here and there and he is responsible unless purposely not being so to prove a point.
Outside (Clear parts of his personality)
- Rational thinker
- Pessimistic “That will never work since… [in-depth explanation]”
- Becomes very ambitious when things seem to be in his favour
- Very big on planning… “Plans are important.”
- Fears rejection and failure (Makes that clear)
- ‘Tells it as it is’
- Goofy...
- Wanna-be detective
- Sarcastic, kind…, tries to make people smile, and is sassy? We’ll see---
- Generally pleasant to be around I guess---
Interior (Stuff he might not even realize about his self)
- Fully aware of his faults and weaknesses, and try’s very diligently to compensate for them.
- Afraid to deal with emotions of others and especially his self. They don’t make sense to him… ‘Why am I feeling this way?’
- Rarely happy with his self in actuality--- he doesn't realize how often he puts on an unconscious act of self-pride to keep his motivation going
- This is where his need to feel “useful” comes from. And he’ll physically make that happen one way or another… since mentally… nope.
- (SO OVERALL, How he feels about his self is heavily based of his environment. He need a prompt to feel emotions or else he’ll just be… blank)
Alignment:
Lawful [neutral or even evil, just not good]
Fighting Style:
Muay Thai - Street fighting… Is what he tries to imitate. He doesn’t have much experience with fighting.
Strengths:
- Manipulative
- Rational
- Intelligent
- Adaptive
Weaknesses:
- Inability to deal with emotion
- Sometimes lacks confidence/self-respect
- Over calculative
- Easily offended (though he may not show it)
- Lack of speed in combat (To busy trying to analyse the opponent )
EXTRA
Article quote:
“Ethen Lee-Abernathy is a 16 year old former mass Arsonist. He is responsible for numerous building, forest and human burnings.
Number of recorded fires: 23
People Killed: Unknown
Total damage costs: $1,982,000
He was primarily popularized under the internet alias ‘Nulllified_1’ for giving suspiciously accurate predictions/warnings of arsonist crimes (that were actually committed by his self) via various social media platforms. He even went as far as helping the police track down what were his own steps under the Nullified1 alias. Of course he mislead the police to keep himself from being caught, yet close enough to be trusted as an anonymous informant.
In 2014 he was captured by the FBI at the scene of a mall fire set by him. He has spent time at juvenile detention centers ever since.”
Pyromania:
Ethen was diagnosed with childhood pyromania at the age of 9. Pyromania is an impulse control disorder in which individuals repeatedly fail to resist impulses to deliberately start fires, in order to relieve tension or for instant gratification.
The article above never mentioned that he was a pyromaniac since the crimes he committed where not that of a pyromaniac nature…
A pyromaniac sets a fire because they are fascinated with it and it may even promote feelings of pleasure and relief. No interior motives. Just fire is cool. While an arsonist sets a fire for the same reasons a criminal may rob a bank or murder someone. More of a motivation that an impulse caused by mental illness…
Despite his diagnosis, the government and the press refused to treat him as a boy with an impulsive disorder. He had a plan to be mischievous and cause property harm; the fact that he got to watch a building on fire as if a bystander was just a plus side to it all.
So in conclusion he was both a pyromaniac and an arsonist, though the crimes he committed is not what gives him the pyromaniac name. He’s a fine mix... and as his social worker likes to say:
A “Delinquent fire setter”
The government wished to send him to district 552 since last year, however, complications on his behalf halted all progress…
Other:
- He often used small, 5mm radius, timed fire bombs to start fires. He would casually drop them into a garbage can or something, then come back later when the fires due
- (He had far too much time of his hands…)
- (And freedom…)
- His fires often failed… or were extinguished before it caused any actual harm
- His name was legally changed to “Ethen Choi” to conceal his identity when moving to district 552 (Not that anyone would care)… He was urged to change his full name, but wanted to keep Ethen as his first.
- He wet his bed until he was 12 (oh my)
- His reaction to fires is not excitement; he stays quiet and looks dazed by it…
- He lived with his step father in the US, But is originally from Canada
- Wants to be a detective
- His name... I wanted a cool name so i looked up a list... saw "ETHEN" and thought it was is pronounced ETH-EN which got me thinking "WOW COOL ORIGINAL
" But it's actually pronounced just like EthAN... which is not what i wanted but okay.- Pretty boy
History:
(I hope it is okay to figure this out as I go, and update later --- I already mentioned a bit of it above, but I don’t want to write his history out more in depth now since I KNOW I will change it later away)
