Desperate for some Development }}
Alright so I have a new character that I would really like to have one of you lovely, literate RPers help me to develop. c: His name is Liam Adcock and he's both a jerk and a push-over. For now.. :0 I'll list the genres I'd like to try with him in a moment but I would like to give you a taste of both my writing style and Liam's personality thus far:
Quote:
Liam Adcock didn't make for a very imposing figure. Standing at a 'mere' five-foot-eight, he could barely meet another man's gaze without having to tilt his head back a little bit. He certainly wasn't muscular either; he had participated in track and swim-team in highschool, and his physique had remained that same slender, lanky build of an athlete that was designed more for speed than strength.
He wasn't very handsome either. Perhaps he could have been considered 'cute' at least, were in not for the fact that his A-stigmatism forced him to wear glasses that made his grey eyes appear to be three-times their actual size.
Despite all of this, however, there was something about him that often intimidated people. Perhaps it was the way that he carried himself with a purpose, as though anyone that stood in his way would be promptly run-over and put out of their misery. Perhaps it was that flicker of cunning in his eyes or that raw wit one could hear in his low, surprisingly (and rather oddly, albeit) deep voice. Whatever it was, Liam Adcock was rarely not taken seriously..
"..I want those prints tonight, Art." He ran a hand roughly through his short, spikey blonde hair; the blank expression on his face was all one needed to see to know that the man was slowly becoming agitated with the person at the other end of the phone, "I can't afford to have you screw up another client's order simply because you can't haul your own a--...I'll call you back. There's someone on the other line." Forcing his finger down upon the telephone's dial, the man sighed deeply before speaking, "Adcock's office. What do you want?"
The 'office' Liam happened to be sitting in at that moment was nestled just below his loft and set away just a few blocks from Broadway in New York City. It was usually far more busy than today, but for whatever reason Liam had decided to give the majority of his employees the day off. He was beginning to regret letting his secretary go, however; his phone never seemed to stop ringing, "..Look, I can't do a shoot for you today. I've already got someone to come in about ten minutes and they've booked the whole day--Ma'am--Yes, I know, but--Look, How about Monday, hmm? Yes, I'm penciling you in right now, alright? Good.."

He's straight, just for the record. x3 In the example above he was a photographer (played opposite Kande's Zoey character) but as I said before, I'm going to try and be flexible with his character and give you many different pairings to choose from. In the list below, the role I would like Liam to play will be surrounded by brackets such as these ----> [ ]
Take your pick:
- [Photographer] / Model
- Teacher / [Student]
- Student / Student (this could be turned in to a 'School for the Gifted' type thing)
- [Geek] / Popular Girl (Highschool) (same as above)
- [Patient] / Nurse (or doctor)
Please, please, PLEASE suggest things. c: That would make me very happy. Post below if your interested..
