The Personality

LIKES & DISLIKES
LIKE 1 Food; Well food is the essential to human life as we all know but Tyrion loves food, especially home cook food. He is quite a good cook himself and loves baked desserts the most. If history wouldn't have been his calling, he probably would have become a chief or maybe opened his own resturant. He also likes when people cook for him, always can learn something new that way. The best way to his heart is through his stomach.[\font]

LIKE 2 Women; He is quite charming and women seemed to find him quite irresistible. He enjoys women's company whether intellectually or in bed. He isn't a man whore though and can be monogamous if he finds a female whom he likes but so far hasn't had a real relationship. The thoughts on marriage haven't really crossed his mind at all or having any children, guess if he finds the right one then settling down will be the next step.

LIKE 3 Teaching/History; Luckily he has found his calling. He loves to teach and his favorite subject is history. He is a big history buff and loves studying on past war history the most. He is a good teacher, most of his students like him for being nice but he is a stern teacher and doesn't put up with rudeness or tardiness. So far he has been known as Annister the demon by a few of his students whom he has thrown things at and yelled at. He has always loved history, ever since he was a kid. He feels that you can learn alot from history and learn from your ancestor past mistakes, even look for things that have happened back then to prepare for what could happen in the future.

DISLIKE 1 Paranormal; He doesn't like ghost, demons or anything else that is not of this world. He has had a bad experience with the paranormal before that has had a lasting effect on him and will turn the other way if said place is haunted or if their are rumors of a possession.

DISLIKE 2 Ghost stories; He is more of a if I can see it I can touch it kind of person. He doesn't like hearing any urban legends or any ghost stories and will try to distract himself if someone is telling a story. This dislikes stems from his fear of the paranormal and anything associated with it. He will practically run the other way if someone starts talking about ghost, demons o anything that is associated with the paranormal or cover his ears.

DISLIKE 3 Bad students; They only make things harder for him and he would rather teach students who want to learn. He has been known to throw things at students if they are not paying attention. He feels that if they aren't there to learn then why should he waste his time trying to teach the unteachable. A few of his bad student have given him a nickname and some new students are alittle afraid or have this image of him as being a asshole.

STRENGTHS & WEAKNESSES
STRENGTH 1 Strength; Physically he is a very strong guy, able to lift things that normal people can't. He works out a lot and does a lot of boxing and swimming. He feels that being healthy body also helps with a healthy mind, so he works out alot and tries to be as healthy as he can be.

STRENGTH 2 Charming; He is a very pleasing and delightful person to be around. He uses manners and his wits to get what he wants and when it comes to the ladies. He's looks also help with this trait especially when he smiles. He loves to learn new things about people and is quite social. Crowds give him energy and the more people the better to him.

WEAKNESS 1 Superstitious; Sometimes this can get in the way of his daily life. He won't walk under ladders and will do anything in his power to make sure black cats don't cross him. He is always cautious and on the looks out for anything that can cause bad luck. This belief might stem from him being afraid of the paranormal and alot of times lumps the two together without meaning to.

WEAKNESS 2 Fear; The only things that he really fears is bad luck and the paranormal. He isn't a coward mind you, if someone needs help he won't hesitate to help them, but sometimes his fear can almost drive him crazy sometimes and stresses him out. Plus with what had happened to him in the past and being traumatized, he fears the paranormal very easily and can act irrationally and violently if he starts to feel threatened.

Personality
Hopes: To overcome all obstacles and move on from the past.
Dreams: To be the best history teacher.
Goal: No longer be afraid of unseen forces or things that may not exist.

Overall Personality:Besides being afraid of the paranormal and bad luck, he is a very fun and charming guy. He likes to be in large crowds and really has more energy when he is around people. He loves to learn new things and in return loves to teach new things. He doesn't really say much when it comes to his past and has a tendency to just keep things in. At times he can be very emotional, but he hides this side of him very well.

With everyone, their are good and bad sides to people. The bad side of him only comes out when face with something that he can't explain and acts out violently.

He is one of those people who doesn't have a imagination and tries to have a logical explanation for everything. He doesn't like when confronted with something that doesn't make sense and has no answer.

Besides this somewhat undesirable traits, there are good ones as well. He is sociable, charming and very smart. He knows what to say and who to say it to. He also uses his charms and intellect to charm people so he is a nice and fun guy to be around.

The History

Tyrion history is more like something out of a horror thriller film. He barely knew his father, the man died from unknown circumstances when he was two and was raised solely by his mother. Angie seemed to be a normal single mother; she worked and took care of her son. Unbeknownst to everyone, the woman had a dark past and a dark secret.

Tyrion had a somewhat normal childhood all the way up to the age of seven. He started seeing things that other people didn't see and hearing voices. He thought that he was crazy, but these voices weren't telling him to go hurt anyone....they were speaking to him from a person who no one else saw but him. This people looked as real as the next person and they just talked to him like he was a old friend. telling him things about their life and details on who they were. Many people thought it was just a lonely boy who had imaginary friends, till his mother started looking into all the things that her son was telling her and every single person that her son has supposedly been talking to.....was dead....they were alive, many years before Tyrion was even born and he couldn't have possibly knew who they were...but he knew all this things; like when they died, their name, family and details on their death.

Angela was convinced that her son could see and speak to the dead and this was where things went horribly wrong.

Tyrion had known that his mother was into the black arts. She practiced some kind of satanic witch craft right in front of him. It always scared him, she would sometime do life sacrifices like cutting a chickens head off right in front of him. She didn't seem to care that her son knew this dark secret of hers. He watched as she would perform séance's for people who wanted to contact their love ones from beyond the grave. He had seen a few times when these go horrible wrong....he has seen people levitate off the ground; people being choke by some unseen force and one time a woman was thrown against a wall.

With all these things happening in his own home, he was often scared of everything and his teachers began to notice a change in his behavior but he wouldn't tell them if anything was going on. His mother told him that she believed he had the ability to see and speak to the dead...something like a medium. This was where he know thought he's mom was more crazier than he thought and one night....things would go from simple neglect to abuse.

One night; a customer wanted to contact her dead daughter who had died a week ago in a horrible car accident. Angela thought that if she used her son gift in a séance that they would have better luck at contacting the dead. Tyrion was terrified, he was trying to cut off this ability of his. He hated seeing random strangers talking to him and everyone else around him didn't seem to noticed someone was there...it was only him and he hated having this visions of their death.

Angela started to perform the ritual, using her own seven year old son as a medium. Tyrion tried to convince himself that nothing would happen and that his mother was just a fraud to exploit people for their money. Unfortunately something did happen....something...paranormal. As he sat at the head of the table, he saw a black shadowy figure on the other side of the table; its voice was so deep and demonic, it was all black...their wasn't any facial features that he could see and above on...it smell so bad. Tyrion was frozen with fear as this....thing was just staring at him....sometimes speaking to him and saying horrible things.

This couldn't have been the customers daughter....his mother was conjured something that wasn't even earthly bound...it was something else far more sinister.

Mom....you have to stop...something is here...its evil....it wants everyone dead..... Tyrion whispered softly.

Angela was having non of that and ordered her son to reach further into this spiritual world. She moved on....shes not coming back but you have to stop this.....there's a evil presence here and it wants to kill everyone! Tyrion shouted again.

Before anyone could even say anything....the lights suddenly went out and all that could be heard were screams and what sounded like someone being stabbed. Tyrion ran downstairs into the basement, hiding in the corner and covering his ears, sobbing and whimpering hysterically. Then....everything went quiet....eerily quiet. Maybe this was all just a bad dream that he would wake up from this. Suddenly....he could sense something foul was in the basement with him. He was to afraid to even look till the dark entity started speaking to him....telling him weird and horrible things about his fathers dead and that his mother was the one that had killed him...even said that his mother was part of some....cult called the Manson family. What was this thing even talking about?? It didn't make any sense to him. Tyrion finally faced the entity but not before the entity grabbed him, forcing the boy to look right into his black faceless face. Scenes of his fathers death were suddenly filling his head, his mother when she was a lot younger and in another state....she seemed to be part of some group that had murdered people and was lead by a man name Charles Manson, scenes of the people that the dark figure had killed also plagued the boys mind till a sharp burning pain went across his upper back and then he passed out.

When he came to; he was in a hospital. Doctors, nurses and police officers surrounded him. The officers informed him that his mother and her friends were brutally murdered in his home and that they found him in the basement. Tyrion knew what had happen, but he didn't say anything to the officers...they wouldn't believe him. The doctor gave in a medical report that their were signs of child abuse, like a weird symbol that seemed to have been carved into Tyrions left shoulder of the all seeing eye, which is a symbol used in Satanic witch craft. Tyrion was placed in foster care and had to undergo serious therapy from the traumatic experiences that his mother had done to him...or that was what the therapist had tried to make him believe. Tyrion tried to tell the therapist what he had experience and what he was still experiencing. Spirits still approached him, but after years and years of hardcore therapy, he finally just chalk it down to that he was a troubled kid with a bad past and tried to put everything that happen in the back of his mind. Basically after twenty years of therapy, he convinced himself that his mother was just a crazy and abusive woman who was trouble herself; she was a member of the Charles Manson family and although she didn't commit any of the murders that they had done, she knew about them and ran away to North Carolina when the law caught up with the family but that didn't stop her crazy ways of thinking and worshiping Satan and Charles Manson.

Spirits still seemed to be attracted to Tyrion, but he often ignores them but when he can't, he comes violent and afraid, which is why he is terrified of anything that is paranormal and doesn't like ghost stories. After spending much of his life in North Carolina and graduating from NC State and earning his teaching certification, he headed up North for a fresh start and got a job at Ragston University.

The Sample

Today was the day. He would be starting a new job doing what he loved doing best. It had been three months since coming here and now he finally found a job and hoped that it would go well. He needed this job and wanted to start fresh where nobody knew him or of his past.

After getting dressed and coffee in hand, he headed to the university with a smile on his face. He would be teaching four history classes from morning till noon then he would be back for one night class. His schedule was alittle hectic, but he would rather stay busy and have his mind focus on other things and just ignore any....distractions.

He arrived before any of his first class did and started getting things ready for his students. The bell rung and sure enough he had about twenty five students sitting in desk, just ready to learn. A few of the college girls seem to rather look at him than actually hear what he was saying and there were also a few students who looked to be trouble makers. But the class went through well and he only had to throw a couple things at the trouble makers till they finally decided to listen to him.

The rest of the day went through rather well and the other teachers they seemed...okay...some were rather odd but he wasn't exactly the normal guy either and would rather get along with people that cut them out for being weird.

Thank you for your interest in joining the family at Ozryn! Currently, there are a few things we'd like you to fix and clarify before you can join in on the fun. Once these items are fixed, simply reply to your thread stating so, and we'll look through it again. If you have any questions or need help, please don't hesitate to contact one of the super friendly staff members!

• Likes 2 and 3, all the Dislikes, Strength 1 and Weaknesses 1 and 2 all need more sentences. As required by the application, each of these should be five sentences in length. We count sentences by start of the sentence to the period.

• Strength 2 is rather confusing; while I understand being charming is one trait, what you have is a mix of partial charming, partial outgoing personality and partial energized. Can you fix this to make it clearer, or to be more specific to what he has about charm?

• We're looking for a little more depth in the overall personality. We'd really like to say each paragraph should be about four or five sentences, at the minimum, but we judge this a lot for the whole character application. This should be one of the parts you want to focus on. What you have now is a great start, but just expand, let us know more!

• The relationship with family should be fixed. We're asking for what their relationship with their family is, not about a background of their parents/siblings. What you have is basically what should be in your application.

• If Tyrion wasn't good at math in school, why did he pursue a minor in biology? Even just having the "C" grades wouldn't qualify him towards graduating with it, unless he really changed his schooling around.

• In your status about parents, you say his mother is "incarcerated" although in your history, she died. Clarify which one this is.

• One of the biggest concerns in your application is that he throws things at his students. You mention this several times throughout the personality section, although that would be grounds to fire him from the school district. Think of Ozryn's school district -- Ragson University included -- as the top notch, high-society class schools. I'm sure @thedean wouldn't allow anything like a scandal to go on in their school.

• The final point we want you to look at is your similarities to your alter ego. I don't know which version of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow you're referring to, but Ichabod Crane wasn't known as "a womanizer." He was a gossiper and the women of Sleepy Hollow had become enthralled with him because of his knowledge and the fact that he was, and I quote, "not a country swain." A good amount of your similarities also focus on the same fact, his "superstitious" persona, which is another fact that isn't quite right. While, yes, Ichabod was "afraid of his own footsteps in the dark," it didn't catch up to him until well after his fight with his rival. Before that, Ichabod would happily partake in superstitious stories and ghost stories, even aiding those who are telling with stories of his own.

When you have made the required edits, please respond to this thread to let us know. Someone will take another look. If you have any questions, message the administration team.
