Mental Information
Personality: Sarcastic, he uses humor as a shield in most ways. So while his jokes may be in bad taste, he says them. His jokes get meaner and he often times will make fun of someone in a way that would seem mean, and he criticizes people when he disagrees with them entirely. He has a pretty good judge of character, but he becomes jealous pretty easily which causes him to lose sight on knowing the difference between assholes and good guys who he just envies. He can be shy when talking to cute girls, and he tends to be afraid of getting pummeled by the strong guys who often date aforementioned cute girls.
Likes: Good music, relaxation, cute girls, just hanging out with his friends.
Dislikes: Assholes, snobs, stuck up rich kids.
Mentality/Ideal/Belief: A peaceful life, or if not a peaceful life, then at least someone to go through life with to make the peaceful moments happy and memorable ones.
Physical Information
Build: Average, toned.
Defining Marks: Scars all over his body, cigarette burns, and a tattoo of the Star Wars rebel insignia on the left side of his chest.
Description: He is toned and has a pretty nice body, but he isn't completely buffed out or anything. He tends to wear jeans and work boots, usually regular t-shirts underneath button up shirts. If the weather is a bit chilly for whatever reason he'll usually wear a brown leather coat. Also wears an eye patch over his left eye socket. There is no eye there, due to an accident that took place during a fight with his father.
Fighting Information
Fighting Style: Boxing/Kick Boxing/Street
Years Practiced: 4/4/6
Description of style: Boxing is pretty much just using your fists to attack, James uses a number of different styles of punching, including the one he uses more often then none, the longfist. He is also trained in kick boxing, and uses it more as a form of exercise then a fighting technique. Besides that he pretty much just picks up on stuff that he learns in fights.
Overall Strengths: Due to his lack of sight on his left side, his other senses have naturally kicked in, and his hearing for one is excellent on his left side. It doesn't make up for the eye, but it sure helps. He is skilled with improvised weapons though, and if given a real one would easily pick up on how to use it correctly.
Overall Weaknesses: His lack of depth perception, his blind left side, his lack of fighting experience, and his clumsy nature make it easy for him to be tripped up in a fight. Also, due to having an entire blind side, and focusing on his hearing to his left, sometimes he can over compensate for his weak side, meaning that if he focuses on blocking on his weak side, sometimes his right side will become easier to attack.
History Information
History: James was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. His father was a construction worker, and his mom was a secretary at his middle school. It was a pretty normal life, he was an only child, and his family didn't exactly have a lot of money but they got buy. They lived in a rental house and he went to the local middle school that his mom worked at. Then his dad got laid off from work, and stayed in the bottom of a bottle ever since.
Things at home got pretty bad, it wasn't too long until stress got to his father, and the drinking didn't exactly make him a good person. His mom started getting upset with his father, and the fighting started. Then after the fighting came the hitting, and after she was getting hit, pretty soon James was being hit too. James and his mother went to that middle school and tried to stay there as much as possible, but one day his mother couldn't take it any longer. She stood up to him and a fight broke out between her and his father. He got in the middle of it, and his father who had a knife ended up stabbing James' eye out in a struggle. It was a bloody mess that in the end made Mrs. Everwood a bit unstable.
James grew up, and before long he was in high school. He was able to deal with his dads abusive nature, but he knew his mom couldn't. He'd try to take as much of a beating as he could, trying to get the attention away from her, but his mom was feeling bad about not dumping his dad or getting away, and all her hospital visits and days missed from work got her fired.
When she lost her job his dad went ballistic and beat her badly when James was at school. It went too far, and his mom finally snapped. She went into the closet, pulled out a six shooter, and that was the end of Mrs. Everwood. James found out at school, confessed about everything that happened with his father, about the abusive environment, and his dad was arrested. James got legally emancipated as opposed to going into the system, he got a job in San Francisco doing construction and lived in a crappy one bedroom apartment by himself. He decided he should go to school when the summer was over, so he enrolled himself into PHS #42.
