Appearance - just under 6 feet tall and about 175 lbs, John is very athletically build, his whole life he was pressured by his father, a retired professional soccer player to get into the "family business" so he had to stay in shape. During his teen years he went out and got a large tribal tattoo that covers his entire right shoulder and then a mirror one on his left. He dresses mainly in californian skater style clothes but doesn't mind having to get dressed up for some things.

Personality - A smart aleeky guy who enjoys his music almost just as much as he does his car. He is friendly but can be a bit negative and if something goes wrong he tends to dwell on it for a long time. He is very outgoing and loves to go out and party. He also is quick to make enemies and has a very short temper with certain kinds of people. John always disliked being in school he always either wanted to be out at the beach or at the skate park hanging out. An avid skateboarder and BMX rider John loves hockey to, played during his life and always having the number 8. After he crashed his dads viper when his friend said hed race him. He was given an ultimatum either come to this boading school or go live somewhere else. John then decided to try this place out for size and when with what his parents wanted him to do.


Personal Belongings - Student ID, cell phone, and DC board backpack, and his Bob Burnquist board

History - Born and Raised in Santa Monica, the son of a lawyer mother and a professional soccer player father, John has pretty much raised himself. Having these types of parents has helped him in becoming very self sufficient and learning to stick up for himself. While growing up there was constant pressure on him to take up the name and play professional soccer like his father did, but this was never one of his dreams and rather wanted to be either a professional skateboarder like his hero Bob Burnquist. After his 16th birthday John decided to take his fathers Gallardo out for a joy ride and ended up flipping it 5 times while trying to stop after he won his first race. He was in the hospital for 3 weeks and when he got out his parents had already gotten him a plane ticket and gotten him into his new school. He left behind a girlfriend who was unable to join him here and felt extremely angry at his parents for ruining his chances at stardom.

Likes - ladies, surfing, hockey, BMX, skating, and his RX8, his home town of Santa Monica where you can do everything and anything that you want.
Dislikes - bears rap music, he dreads his parents and as of now dislikes his situation at the new school.

Role-Play Sample - Climbing up the vert ramp was as much of a thrill as actually skating. John could feel his heart rate spike as he got to the top of the roll in. As he strapped on his helmet he looked around at all the people watching him. He picked out three faces, his buddy Ryan, his girlfriend angela, and his little brother Alex. Smiling he held up his hand as to sort of say thank you for all of the help and their friendship. Then he went into what he liked to call "Competition mode." He put all of his concentration into his line and after a deep breath he acid dropped into the half pipe. Being a local boy the crowd roared as he started his run. Coming to the far side he ollied up and tried for a plain kickfluip, easily landing it. The next side he was going to try for somthing a bit more dificult. we went up the ramp at an angle and pulled a double heelflip over the channel. The crowd went wild when he pulled this off and he finally decided to try for it. he had about 3 seconds to prepare himself for the next trick, he shifted his feet and as he came to the over side grabbed the tail of his board and went into a backflip,at the top of his flip he let go of his board and tried to heelflip it . The heel flip worked but he then couldn't find the board and he paniced. the ramp came crashing towards him and he landed squarely on his shoulder after hearing a loud crack John knew his chances for winning this and going pro were over, atleast for another year as the paramedics rushed out of the crowd and told him he broke his collar bone and his right forearm in the fall.

I find it hilarious how you just barely out up a character registration profile and still continue to roleplay before it is even accepted. Your history and RP sample have hardly any work put into it. Rework it and notify me. I'll warn you if the RP continues before the character is accepted.

[Gage]

So does that mean i should ignore his posts till its accepted?

[Zypher]

Yeah, just go ahea and do that..

[Sophie]

Yeh ALOT of work is needed for this to be accepted.
A picture is not a description of their appearance. You can have a picture, but you still need to do atleast two paragraphs.

History and personality need alot more work, and you need to add more likes and dislikes.

You have a good start but please add some more.
And like Zypher said, no Roleplaying until you have been accepted.

[John Sheppard]

ok its been redone now can i start......

[Sophie]

I'd still like to see alot more about his appearance and personality but thanks for adding to it.
I don't see any depth in your character at all, im sorry but it seems like your only trying to do the bare minimum, and your barely even doing that. If you can improve it please do, in my opinion its not up to standards yet, but I'll let one of the other Mods/Admins decide cause im just a fussy bitch

[John Sheppard]

just one thing. I like to add depth to my characters as I play them so its not like im just following some weak template while I play them.
