- 18 - WIND - ASEXUAL - SOPHOMORE -
About
Deane is an eighteen-year-old sophomore at the Academy of the Elements. His element is wind, and he is currently majoring in English. He was born and raised in Georgia and moved to the Academy when he was 13. He is the second oldest of 9 siblings spread among two households, and his history is both complicated and frightening. Deane is a quiet but friendly person who is afraid of being touched, but at the same time loves having close friends. He is a pushover in every sense of the word and would do anything to please anyone. He’s a bit shy and has a hard time talking about himself, but if he’s talking to someone else, he could ask them questions and listen to them answer until the apocalypse arrive. He loves horseback riding and owns his own horse back in Georgia, fencing, ballroom dancing, and foreign languages. He does smoke cigarillos, but he doesn’t drink or do drugs.
Friends
For Deane, friends are as much a necessity as school or making his father proud. He would do absolutely anything to make anyone even a wee bit happier. He is horrible at taking compliments, so anyone who tries to praise him will be shot down in a very polite manner. He is basically just a big, quiet softie. He has no sense of self preservation, so he won't stick up for himself at all, but if any of his friends are threatened, he is not afraid to kick some serious ass. He will defend them verbally right away, but he will not get into a physical fight without his friend's permission beforehand.
Enemies
Unfortunately, enemies are very integral to Deane’s life. He sees his enemies as better friends than his real friends sometimes, depending on whom they are and how they treat him. Abuse is greatly appreciated by him and will be met by astounding agreeableness and a strong will to do more to please his attackers. Physical abuse is best, though it does induce a very strong, shocking reaction out of him. Verbal abuse is greatly appreciated as well, or really any mistreatment.
Lovers
Deane has never had a girlfriend, never been on a date, and never so much as thought about dating. He is completely asexual as far as he knows. He has spent his entire life with his nose buried in books to the point where he can't tell the difference between someone flirting and just being nice. The idea of dating will be a scary one for him, but if the right person comes along, he might be up for it. He would not be able to be physically intimate with anyone without a heavy dose of alcohol or drugs, however, so unless you want a challenge or are into that sort of thing, don’t expect much hugging, kissing, sex, et cetera.
Other
If you can think of it, post it!

hola pirah. i'm stark, and these are my characters. well, half of them. the others are college professor/high school students, but i see nothing. if you have any ideas, however, just hit me up with them. anyhoots, love deane can't wait to plot~ <3
nell nelly here is an earth graduate. she works at a casino. married to josh dale. majoring in psych. has no real concrete goals for the future. these two are actually really similar, which is great. people pleasers, pushovers, and secretive. nell also has a history of abuse, but hers ended up in her killing her mother in self defense.
i imagine these two just being really cute with each other to the point they're apologizing whenever they think they've offended the other person, always making sure that they're all right, and cosntantly asking if they are. xD since nell is so outgoing, i can imagine they might have been friends for a while? she's not at all shy and loves talking and all that. maybe they could be close friends? i can see that working out because of just how perfectly i see them getting along. he should also teach her things, because she would be astounded by the fact that he can fence AND horseback ride AND is a cartographer. she would be verrryy interested in those things. altair altair is a fire graduate. she's a model, and she's proud of it. also proud of herself. very conceited. she's violent and rough around the edges, and quick to anger.
he likes abuse? she can be good for that. however, she also grows bored quickly. if he doesn't entertain her, then she's out. but pretty much anything can get her riled, and half the time she's angry anyway. there could be initial confrontation if he does something to piss her off, but if he doesn't respond in a way that interests her, she'll shrug and walk away. yeager yeager a water graduate. delivers for chinese. has two daddies and a younger adoptive sister. he's a class-clown, and gets into trouble a lot. pretty lazy. kind of a jerk.
i imagine yeager could get along with deane, but not like close friends because deane is so quiet. and he would probably make fun of the way he talks sometimes, and other times he'd just play along. he would be one to try and get deane to do something that is not school-related, because that shit just terrifies him. like, why would anyone spend that much time studying? he totally blows yeager's mind. so possible friends, if you see fit and if deane doesn't mind the douchiness, which i'm guessing he won't.

▷ Deane & Harley biography HORSES?! HARLEY LOVES HORSES AND DOESN'T CARE THAT DEANE'S A WIND, HE NEEDS SOMEONE TO TALK HORSE SENSE WITH <33 He's always drawing horses and he's always wanted a horse of his own so he'd probably be a bit jealous of Deane is some aspects but otherwise Harley would love him as a friend. That's all I can think of at the moment. xD;; I got a wee bit excited. Forgot to put a link to his bio xD;;

josh&deane.CLICK FOR BIO. Dude, for some reason I really want these two to be bros. I think they could get along really well with how they're both insanely studious and intelligent and driven and all that, even if Josh's study habits are by choice and Deane's were kinda drilled into him. Josh can be a scary guy at first but if they knew one another for years I'm sure that would be long enough for them to warm up to each other, yeah? Josh needs a buddy who doesn't think he's boring or weird because he spends more time studying than sleeping. I just think they'd be really cute as friends? Why?
Well, Josh is insanely protective and defensive of his friends and he tends to stick up for them and tries to get them to acknowledge how awesome they are and all that junk. If Deane corrected him after a compliment Josh would be all stubborn like "Well, I'm not taking it back, so you're awesome and that's that." He'd totally get pissed as fuck at anyone who hurt or verbally abused Deane if they were friends and I can see him being like "Why do you let them do that to you, man? That's not okay They are not trying to help you STOPBEINGSONICE ASDFGHJK." He'd be so flustered by it and I just think it'd be really hysterical. Then he'd offer to kick the ass of whoever was bugging Deane and if he said no or tried to defend said enemy in any way Josh would just not understand at all and it makes me laugh just thinking about it because he'd be like "I would want their ass kicked if I were you... wtf."
And since they're both protective and defensive of their friends, I think they would make a seriously wicked team. Like no one shall mess with any mutual friend of theirs ever. Plus Josh just really needs some more really close bros around and Deane is awesome and perfect and yes. And this time it won't end in Josh going all snow leopard on Deane and accidentally trying to eat him. Wow, I rambled. ANYWAY, YOUR THOUGHTS AND JUNK?
ashton&deane.CLICK FOR BIO. Same grade and similar personalities, I vote they'd get along swell! Ashton wouldn't understand Deane's bookishness, though, cause Ash doesn't like school that much, so I can see him trying to drag the poor Wind bby out into the light of day all, "How do you DO THAT? That CANNOT be healthy. .-." And he'd try to get Deane to join him in procrastinating, undoubtedly reaping no results? Haha, Ashton just doesn't get smart people But on a they're-both-super-friendly basis, I'm sure they'd get on great.
Left out my other three because I couldn't see much! I'm willing to thread with any of my characters! We can do more than one thread, just one, none -- all up to you!

kiya && deane CLICK FOR BIO Kiya is my twelfth grade wind. She is a major gaming nerd and really doesn't get out much. She would probably see him as someone just to hang out with and talk to, don't know how they would have meet or anything like that because of the age difference.
charlotte && deane CLICK FOR BIO Charlotte is my sophomore wind girl! These guys are the same element and in the same grade so they would have to know each other. Even so these two would probably be really close friends anyways! : D For me, I could probably see them as best friends but then again, Charlotte can get along with pretty much anyone that she comes across!
I would love to thread with you and welcome to the site! sora. x <33

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style, width:250px; height:0px;] DEANE & NELL
Can I start off by saying, poor Nell baby D: The abuse and death must have been terrifying for her. I think these two would be adorable! I can just picture them being all “I’m sorry.” “No, you’re fine, I’m sorry.” “No, no, I’m the one who should be sorry.” And back and forth for all eternity. I’m cool with them being friends. We’ll have to gauge in the thread just how close they are, since Deane has a bit of trouble bonding with people, but he would be delighted to teach her whatever she wants to learn!
|
[/td][/tr][/table][/center] [atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style, width:250px; height:0px;] DEANE & ALTAIR
Altair sounds sassy, and perfect for Deane! I really want him to have people in his life who push him around and take advantage of him. Trust me, he’d keep her entertained, haha. If he even thinks he’s done something remotely wrong, he apologizes all over the place and he would do literally anything she wanted to make up for it. You name it, he’ll do it.
|
[/td][/tr][/table][/center] [atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style, width:250px; height:0px;] DEANE & YEAGER
Deane would like Yeager, but he would probably feel a personal responsibility toward getting Yeager more focused in his studies, work, staying out of trouble, what have you. Deane will need someone to pull him out of his studies, so it would be great if they were friends! And haha, no, Deane would never mind any amount of douchiness, as long as he doesn’t see it being directed viciously toward others.
|
[/td][/tr][/table][/center] [atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style, width:250px; height:0px;] DEANE & HARLEY
HORSES YAY! Oh God, Deane could talk forever about the horses. He’d offer to take Harley to Georgia to meet the horses, no question, and if they couldn’t do that, he’d pay to take the kid horseback riding in Canada.
|
[/td][/tr][/table][/center] [atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style, width:250px; height:0px;] DEANE & JOSH
Deane could definitely use someone who likes studying! Most people just think he’s insane for his study habits, so he would be ecstatic to find a person who at least understands his drive, if not the extremes he goes to. Deane can warm up to anyone quick as you please, no matter their initial personality, and he tends to actually gravitate toward the more frightening ones. So yeah, I can definitely see these two being good friends.
As far as the protectiveness is concerned, that could definitely go down in some interesting ways. Deane will have a couple of people who treat him miserably, and he’ll always be avidly searching for more of those types, so he would probably try to steer them clear of Josh just so he wouldn’t have to go through the guy defending him. Deane would totally stick up for the bullies to the death, and that probably would be a pretty great scene to witness, haha. Oh God, though. If anyone picked on a mutual friend of theirs, shit would go down hella quick I bet.
Absolutely though, these two need to be bros, man!
|
[/td][/tr][/table][/center] [atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style, width:250px; height:0px;] DEANE & ASHTON
Aww, Ashton sounds cute. If Ashton tried to get Deane to procrastinate, Deane would equally attempt to get Ashton to work, haha. He’d be concerned and do his absolute best to help the guy out. But yeah, totally good friends!
|
[/td][/tr][/table][/center] [atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style, width:250px; height:0px;] DEANE & KIYA
Hm…Deane loves tutoring people of all ages and has studied up for every high school class offered, including those he never took. Perhaps he could have tutored her at one point? As for gaming, he’s never played a video game in his life before, so she’ll need to teach him, haha.
|
[/td][/tr][/table][/center] [atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style, width:250px; height:0px;] DEANE & CHARLOTTE
Yay for sophomore winds! If either of them ever had their scars accidentally exposed to the other, that could be cause for some juicy bonding, but other than that, I can see them being friends. Deane loves theatre, though he’s never had a personal talent for it. He’s more a front-row-seat kind of guy. But he would love to stand in if she ever needs to practice for a performance and needs someone to read lines for her or what have you.

kiya && deane CLICK FOR BIO That actually sounds like a good idea. She is really good when it comes to Math and things like that but give her anything non computer related and she fails like anything. That would really work. Would you like to do a thread in regards to that or just one in general?
charlotte && deane CLICK FOR BIO That would also work, yay for all of the plot bunnies~ I could see that as I good idea, with her practicing and everything. We could totally have a thread at her place in Maple Hollow with him helping her with lines ect.

nell she appreciates it. </3 and yeah, messed her up pretty bad. both our poor bbies, man. and that scenario is just too cute, because omg. and nell is prone to turning the other cheek when it comes to any violence against her (she's getting kind of...better) so yeah, so much in common. ;_;
in terms of closeness, nell really easily attaches herself to people, but she's very secretive. that closeness doesn't have to be returned on his end, she's just velcro basically. xD and we can thread them ... oh, what if she requests him to teach her how to fence but then she's just all "i don't want to hurt you tho, what if i hurt you *sobs*" and it will be hilarious.
altair psssh yeah, her other name is sasstair. /stoned for horrible joke
in that case, i think she would enjoy messing with him. that is, if he wants to make it up to her. of course she'll be like "wtf is going on with this kid" but she would just tell him just...horrible things. like she'd start off by saying "do my homework, dork" and then if he pisses her off again (which is likely, trigger temper) she would be like "fuck me, bro." and just try to make him uncomfortable. and she's really mean BUT IT WILL BE FUN. and we can totally thread this, with altair being just pissed off at him and him just apologizing. even though i feel bad, i still enjoy meanness yeager omg responsible friend, i like it. yeager is just like "dude, just because i get shit done...eventually...sometimes." and deane could be a great influence, meanwhile yeager is just like taking him to parties and shopping. because he likes to shop.

josh&deane.CLICK FOR BIO. So excited for these two! They'll be great bros! Maybe Deane can end up in the medical wing because someone messed with him and Josh can get all protective like "What happened to you, Deane, whose ass am I kicking? " and Deane can stick up for the bully and we can have fun with this dynamic? Then we could have a thread, woo! And then they can always go out after school and be bros and do friend stuff!
ashton&deane.CLICK FOR BIO. OMG this is such a hilarious dynamic. Neither of them would get anywhere with the other and it'll be great! What will Deane think when Ashton drops out of college? Maybe he can express his desire to quit to him or something?
Left out my other three because I couldn't see much! I'm willing to thread with any of my characters! We can do more than one thread, just one, none -- all up to you!

MATTHEW + DEANE yay college grads! and yay william moseley! anywho, i've got matty here who's also a sophomore graduate but of the water variety, so i bet he and deane would know each other through high school! matt opted to go to a different university and is an illustration major, which got me thinking, does deane have any aspirations to be a writer? it'd be cute if they collaborated on a children's book or something for one of deane's classes or something, and matt can illustrate it or whatever. i'm not sure how close they could be or how you want to play it -- they could have kept in touch after high school, or they could have drifted and then randomly came across each other somehow or something? idk. i just love him because he's an english major after my own heart, so i'm throwing matt at him, don't mind me. :|
NALA + DEANE nala is my world history teacher! he could have had her as a teacher in high school, so they could know each other that way -- nala is also a wind elemental and really sort of chill about life and everything that comes with it. she's rational and logic-minded rather than emotional, but she's a supportive friend and mentor if someone needs it. idk they could get along suuuper well, but i don't have anything tremendously special besides nala being that teacher that's always there for him when he needs it type of thing.
