Name: Erik Daniel Donally
Yeah, my initials are Edd. My parents actually didn't try that. Funny story, they didn't have a name picked out for me at all. I was named after one of the nurses who was in the delivery room.
Grade and Age: Erik has recently turned seventeen on his birthday, January 3rd. He is a Junior, and has been attending Somerset High since he was a Freshman.
Activities: Erik doesn't really participate in many activities. He would join a writing club, if they have one. He's really a photographer at heart, but he doesn't consider that a social interaction sort of thing. He'd rather be alone to take pictures, and when it comes to writing, he likes to learn new ways to be creative - but he can't collaborate with anyone on a story. He tends to work alone, which is just how he is.
Appearance: Erik is a medium height, standing at around five feet, ten inches. Of course, that's taller than quite a few females, but still shorter than your average Joe. He doesn't particularly care how tall or short he is, really. It's only ever bugged him when guys would call him "shorty" or things like that. Then again, that would bother anyone, right? His looks are very unique, and distinguishable in a crowd. Even if you can't spot the curly mop of blonde hair, you can easily find him - he'll be the most pale on in the room. Considering how much time he spends outside, photographing or writing, you would think he'd get some sort of tan. However, Erik is just naturally very fair skinned, and proud to be so. It doesn't help that he tends to wear long clothing. This boy never really feels cold, nor does he get that hot. He's sort of immune to temperature - he'll wear long sleeves and black pants in the middle of summer, or flip flops and a pair of shorts in the dead winter. Speaking of wearing dark clothes - Erik is almost never seen without wearing some sort of black. It's not that he tries it, he just looks good in it. It matches his eyes, which are so dark brown that you can barely see his irises. He's got a very mysterious look just built right into him.
Personality:
History: Ehh, later.

Personality:
- Quiet: Erik tends to be quiet when in a big crowd of people. He likes to talk, don't get me wrong - he just won't speak freely unless he's around someone he trusts. He would rather have a one on one conversation, or something in a small group, than try to keep up with making his voice heard in a noisy place. He's an observant person, one who likes to see things and remember them to write down later, instead of comment on at that very moment.
- Thoughtful: He's definitely got a good mind. He's average when it comes to smarts - that's been put on his school records - but that's not what I mean. He's the sort of guy to sit there and think for hours, and never get bored. He has all these ideas just rushing around, waiting to be written down or carried into motion. He likes to write, which is why he's so creative, and constantly has something on his mind.
- Sneaky: When Erik sets his mind to something, he'll go as far as he can to get what he wants. He's very good at being a sleuth. He probably knows more about you that your mother does, really. He'll find things out when he wants to. He knows how to open a lock with only a bobby pin in under a minute, and he's notorious for breaking into cars and hot-wiring them in about fifteen to twenty minutes. Not that he's proud of these habits, he just likes to know things about people. You could say he's nosy, but he's considers it having a big interest in the well-being of people around him.
- Caring: Erik's philosophy is that no one should ever feel alone. It doesn't matter if he knows you or not, he'll ask how your day is going. He cares about a lot of people, even ones he knows he'll never see again, or people he might never get the chance to meet in person. He just doesn't like to see someone feel upset, lost, or completely without a friend. If you need someone, he's there, and you don't really even have to ask.
- Isolated: Ever since he was a child, Erik had a tendency to isolate himself. He prefers the company of one or two people as opposed to six or seven. If you leave him alone too long, he'll get a bit too wrapped up in his thoughts. He's like a puppy, in constant need of someone there to say "Hey Erik, you're okay, right?"
History: Ehh, later.
Other:
- He's allergic to almonds and most other nuts.
- He's pansexual, but leans more towards men.
- He's never had sex, only been kissed.
