...basics*
name...[/b][/size] Blake Narcissus St. Clair
nickname...[/b][/size] “Blake” really isn’t all that complicated, now is it?
age...[/b][/size] Twenty
gender...[/b][/size] Male
grade...[/b][/size] College junior
occupation...[/b][/size] Ha! Work. You can’t be serious. But he does have a rather budding career as a part-time model. It’s perfect for him. He likes nothing more than showing off.
hometown...[/b][/size] Cannes, France
sexuality...[/b][/size] He is straight. Sometimes. Other times, he’s gay. Some nights, he’s both.
personification...[/b][/size] Dorian Gray from The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde
status...[/b][/size] DORMANT
face claim...[/b][/size] Gerhard Friedl [/blockquote]
...appearance*
physical...[/b][/size] The most striking thing about Blake is, simply put, how show-stoppingly pretty he is. He has the face of a Greek Adonis – high defined cheekbones, lush white-blond hair, full lips, a sculpted chin, perpetually-hooded blue eyes. He’s gorgeous, and he knows it, and the confidence this knowledge radiates only makes him all the more magnetic. Still, he has a sort of haughtiness about him that can be unpleasant, present in the nobility of his cheekbones and those long eyelashes perpetually shading his eyes. His skin is smooth, fair, and remarkably unblemished – kept so by a rigorous cleansing routine, though he would be rather clear without it. The routine is upheld out of an irrational fear of pimples.
He is more tall than short at a little over six feet high, and is of a slender build that he maintains carefully. He has long graceful limbs and the fingers of a piano player, elegant and dexterous. Everything about him seems to exude grace and a peculiar corruptibility, as if so much as touching him would somehow sully his perfection. He has exceptional posture save for when he is bored, which only makes said boredom all the more obvious in the unusual slump of his shoulders. His face is very expressive and he is poor at hiding his emotions, particularly boredom.
clothing style...[/b][/size] Like everything else about him, Blake’s style affects a sort of careless elegance. He wears only the latest trends but wears them somehow casually, as if he has no real regard for being fashionable. Perhaps he does, perhaps he doesn’t. It’s a bit hard to tell. Either way, all of his clothing is expensive – none of that department store shit. Name brands, fresh off the racks. His wardrobe gets a turnover about every six months. For someone who doesn’t outwardly appear to care about trends, he certainly spends a lot of his father’s money on clothes.
defining traits...[/b][/size] He has the most lovely smile, though he doesn’t smile very often. In reality, he looks rather listless most of the time. [/blockquote]
