One Strength: Calm
Remember to Answer all that apply:
- How does this strength effect your character physically?
Kenny is able to keep his cool when in situations that other might find themselves under duress. Obviously meeting an alien would still shock him the first time around, but he'd be quicker than most to regain himself as time went on. - How does this strength effect your character mentally?
He'd be able to remain calm and collected in situations that would cause someone to break down and cry, or he'd at least realize to run instead of being frozen with fear. - In what way would this benefit others working alongside your character?
His calm and collected attitude could benefit the others because he would be able to make decisions in the heat of the moment. While they probably wouldn't be the smartest of most tactical decisions, they'd at least be thought out instead of just telling everyone to run. - In what way would this NOT benefit others working alongside your character?
It would most likely irritate those more prone to anger, and cause the suspicious to distance themselves from him due to his oddly calm manner in such a situation of danger.
One Weakness: Old.
Remember to Answer all that apply:
- How does this weakness effect your character physically?
Kenny is getting on in years, and that means he's not as spry or limber as some of the other people participating in Gantz. Without the suit he'd definitely be at a bigger disadvantage than the others, what with arthritis and poor eyesight setting in. - How does this weakness effect your character mentally?
While not set in his ways per say, Kenny definitely has a set way of looking at certain things. Explained more below. - In what way would this benefit others working alongside your character?
As stated above Kenny has certain ways of doing things. For instance if he sees someone in trouble, especially a woman, he'll go out of his way to assist that person simply because "I was raised that way.". He's also got experience on the other younger members, and while it doesn't apply to fighting off monsters, it does give him a little bit more knowledge than the others. - In what way would this NOT benefit others working alongside your character?
He's old, and as such he's a liability. He'll get tired quicker than the others and is most likely more fragile than the younger ones. If out of his suit he'll be at the complete mercy of the aliens.
Appearance: Kenny is of medium height and build for a man in his region, and has a short haircut. He's wearing black eyeglasses and wearing a pair of brown leather shoes with a brown plaid suit and white undershirt with a blue bow tie.
Remember to Answer all that apply:
- Does your character have a preferred style of dress? Describe it.
Professional, and especially well kept. He likes his suits like he likes his women, clean and well pressed....You heard me. - Does your character appear intimidating, average or preferably approachable at first glance?
Kenny is definitely an approachable man. He's got a calm face and is usually the first to offer a greeting. Tough guys will often find him to be a wimp and the weaker members of the group will most likely feel comfortable around him. - Is your character attractive, average or ugly?
Kenny has that old man charm about him. His face is sharp but not in a bird like way. He briefly grew a beard back in the 90's and found that his female students were flirting with him more often. He shaved it after a week.
Personality: He's a somewhat serious man, but not to a fault. For instance while he immensely enjoys all of his students, he feels the student/teacher line should never be crossed and rarely visits social events with his class.
He's quite friendly and has been known to be one of the more favorable Professors on campus. He's certainly never had his house egged at least. He also has an old school way of thinking, and won't stand for bullying in his classroom.
Remember to Answer all that apply:
- Is your character shy or are they outgoing?
Outgoing. - Is your character a leader, a follower or a balance of the two?
Being a Professor Kenny is obviously quite keen to the leader role. Of course being an intelligent man he also realizes when it's time to step back and let someone else take charge. In a game of chess he'd be best described as a Rook.
Background: Kenny has been a Professor at UoG for fifteen years, and has built up a reputation for being one of the best Professor's on campus. While most students don't need to take Social Studies, they find themselves enrolling in it just for the great atmosphere and fun time they have in it. While he can't claim to produce a class of all A's, he does well enough that the Board is happy.
Kenny lives at home with his pet Corgi, Amadeus. While his family has often said Kenny needs to find himself a woman and settle down, Kenny just hasn't quite found that special someone.
Cause of Death: Car accident.
Death in Gantz: to be filled by the mod
Note: Optional
