LEONARDO ARTURO MARKS
[/center]
general
gender: Male
age: 29
grade: English Professor
sports: Equestrian (Spare time)
major: n/a
appearance
basic: Leo has the whole dark, tall and handsome thing down to a tee. It's actually quite strange to fit the man to his personality, but once Leo throws out his characteristic smile, the puzzle pieces fit into each other with ease. Standing at 1.89 meters, Leo is tall, very tall, but he doesn't use his height to intimidate people. He isn't built, but is muscular, adding to his dark looks. With light blue eyes, verging on the edge of grey, it strikes off well with his dark brown, almost black hair. Leo doesn't have any visible tattoos, but he does have one of a fish eagle between his shoulder blades. Piercing wise, he doesn't have any of those either.
personality
basic: Despite his somewhat evil looks, Leo is actually a pretty cool guy. He wouldn't exactly call his look evil, but smoldering, and it sure drives the ladies up the wall. He is always looking for the one, but enjoys playing around during the search. He isn't so fussy about who it is, but more about if they can provide him with a good time without any attachment afterwards.
Leo does prefer to keep to himself and a guitar, but is a natural performer and does so at request of his friends. He can be quite a sociable creature when he feels like it and can party with the best when given the chance. It doesn't happen often though, and he is a funny drunk. Leo's grumpy side usually only shows when he has a hangover or when he is sleep deprived. He doesn't snap easily, and it does take a lot to get him well and truly anger. There are days when he does have a shorter fuse than usual, so it's best to stay out of his way then. Leo is also very protective of people he cares about, but he doesn't show this side, preferring to keep it hidden.
history: Leo was born in a small town, just outside of Green Bay, Wisconsin. He was the first born, and when he was seven, his younger sister was born. His grandparents were Italian immigrants, and his mother married an American, hence the rather English surname. They have always been a close knit family, not rich, but always had enough to keep them happy. From a young age, Leo enjoyed reading and when he started school, showed a natural flair for writing. Riding wise- he has been riding since the age of four, but when he started high school, he preferred to do it as a past time, and his time went into his studies.
He attended Xanthis after he graduated, English as his major and History as his minor. Once Leo finished his degree, he moved to England and studied further at Oxford, becoming a young professor at a university in Sheffield in English Literature. After three years, he felt like he needed change, and now finds himself back at Xanthis once more.
OOC: Just felt like creating a professor =] If it's okay that is. If not, I'll just change him a bit and make him a student.
