EM: Garren Paxton

Okay so I heard about this group from A-Someday-Dreamer, and I meant to join it earlier but I became busy and ran out of time before enrollments closed. This time I managed to finish my app! Oh man, I feel super cheesy trying out for a group that's centered around rabu rabu--BUT THIS GROUP IS TOO CUTE TO PASS UP AND I'M TIRED OF HIDING MY INNER CHEESE.


FEELS GOOD TO GET IT OUT THERE--COUGH, ANYWAY. Eromania has a lot more going for it and if you bother reading this you should also check out the group too! I've been looking to join a school RP group and this one just happens to feature love knights (eheh), weapons, magic, tentacles, and zombies all in a pretty little package! With that combo, you can't expect me to NOT join.

And from what I've seen so far, the members are very kind and welcoming, I'm looking forward to RP with everyone if I get in.

There is something wrong with Garren Paxton.

—Or at least that’s a common thought many have after meeting the purple hued deviant. At a glance, Garren is nothing more than a selfish, conniving boy who isn’t afraid to use others to get what he wants. Disregarding rules that don’t fit his mood, he seeks to fulfill his own agenda before anything else. Maybe he really is nothing more than that.

But a second look may find that Garren is a peculiar boy with very peculiar interests. He wants to be entertained by others. The problem is that his interests change more often than most people change their underwear. What may interest him one day may be different the next. One day he may wake up and decide that making someone happy would be in his best interests. That same afternoon he may be inclined to watch someone fail. There are very few constants about Garren; all he knows is that when he does find something to his liking—he really likes it.

Most days, Garren’s outward disposition is set to a peaceful neutral. Since he rarely takes things or himself too seriously, and because of his general passiveness, Garren is the type of person that can get along with many. He isn’t easily offended and will go along with most plans as long as it doesn’t require too much of him.
*But when the mood strikes him or if someone manages to rustle his jimmies, even Garren has a competitive streak. He can suffer from the occasional burst of anger. You know, anything that’s locked up is bound to burst at some point.

tl;dr Garren will like what he likes when he likes it (subject to temporary fixations). Also prone to mood swings.</sub>

BIOGRAPHY
<sub>Born to an ordinary family, the story of Garren Paxton begins like many others. He had a financially stable family consisting of a hardworking father, a busy mother, and a mouthy little brother. Garren went to an average school, received decent grades, and aside from the occasional bully, he had nothing to complain about.

His life remained fairly uneventful until high school, more specifically around the time he realized a pretty face and charming smile could influence those around him. Inquisitive from a young age, the duration of his high school life was spent testing his boundaries; wondering how far people will lower themselves to please someone they liked.

This became a game for him, and he only ever sought out people who would be capable of keeping his interest. This was far from one sided, and there were times when Garren would become so smitten by others he would do whatever was necessary to have them reciprocate the feeling. Unfortunately (or was it fortunately) he found that infatuation, whether the feeling was directed at him or he pursued another, would eventually subside. They all ended when someone would begin to lose interest. Whenever Garren would grow bored of his current life, he would move on to something else; get a new girlfriend, find new friends, or invest into a new hobby. He couldn’t say he was entirely happy, but he wasn’t particularly miserable either.

After countless changes and a growing apathy for life, who knew the greatest change would come in the form of a letter and a vial in his locker. Staring suspiciously at the letter he guessed it was a bad joke from someone looking to test his daring. Only an idiot would fall for a scam like this. He drank it anyway. After all, the worst that the ‘potion’ could be was piss. He spit it out pretty quickly.

Over the following weeks that progressed, Garren had become more volatile than he was comfortable with. He blamed it on the dull throbbing ache on his upper back. One night, near the end of the second week, —as he suffered through the rather interesting and intensely painful process of mutated bones tearing through the flesh of his back and sprouting feathery appendages— Garren realized there were things worse than drinking piss in a vial. As he clutched his sides and writhed, he thought that this might almost be as painful as puberty. Almost.

The events afterward are boring enough that Garren can barely recall the time leading up to his entrance to the grand halls of Eros Academy. He had little understanding why or how he was chosen, but this strange place is charming enough to keep him quiet.

And who knows, maybe Venus will have some grand life changing lesson he’ll eventually learn regarding the nature of love.

Garren tilts his head back and laughs heartily, sincerely doubting it.</sub>


ADDITIONAL INFO
<sub>Voice: His voice sounds how drinking hot chocolate and it's raining outside feels.

Extra:
He is probably a bad dude, I wouldn’t trust anything he says.
Sometimes he's also a bully.
But he also bakes so there’s that.</sub>
