Meet the Scout (Oh! The wit of me!)
Dec. 12th, 2008 10:24 amRandom notes about my Scout muse from Team Fortress 2 since I don't want to make a real profile for him yet.
- Nickname "Scoot", used on the team and at home. Named after his speed; telling him to "scoot"
- age 19, baby boomer; assuming the game takes place around 1968 that means he was born in 1949
- spent the first five years of his life in New Jersey before the family moved to Boston, still has the Jersey accent
- seven older brothers, eldest brother predicted 8 years older than Scoot, which means he'd be about 27 now
- cocky, smartassed, aggressive
- was bullied by his brothers and boys in school, learned early to solve problems with violence
- taught himself to run in order to get to the fights before his brothers hogged all the fun and to get away when he was over his head. needless to say this training payed off; he's probably the fastest human being of the 60's
- typical teenaged boy; likes comic books, attractive girls and junk food
- favorite comic book is Superman because he's just like him; faster than a speeding bullet, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound
- Superman inspiration to keep running?
- horny as hell and all about girly mags and boobs, but if a girl talks to him he gets really embarassed and nervous; has no idea how to talk to girls
- part of this is because he's a little sexist
- his mother is the only girl he can really talk to; he loves her and is protective of her
- father might be a baseball star
- world's biggest baseball fan. always carries a bat, knows all the terms, you name it
- has a keen eye for cars
- commited some (relatively) minor felonies in high school, namely breaking into lockers
- accidentally killed a boy from school when he was 17; he said something bad about his mother (or was bullying her) and Scoot beat him to death with a baseball bat. He was sent to the army instead of prison, and two years later got called for the infamous battle of RED vs. BLU in TF2
- had really short brown hair before he got sent off and they shaved his head
- not sure about music from his time yet, but in modern music he enjoys things with heavy percussion, fast pace and heavy electric guiltar (or heavy accoustic; he's taken a liking to a few Gypsy Nomad songs, especially Ogre Dance)
- once introduced he'll adore video games
- hates needles. not because they hurt, he just doesn't like them.
- bisexual, but insists he's completely straight; has a secret mancrush on the Soldier
- fidgets with his dogtags when uncomfortable or feeling down
- image song: Shining Knights in Dented Armor by the Gypsy Nomads. I'm not sure what it is that makes me think of him, but it does.
