*THESE PICTURES MUST NOT STRETCH THE BOARD
...basics*
name Calvin Pouler
nickname Nicknames are so mainstream, man.
age 18
gender A Dude
grade College Freshman
hometown Conway, New Hampshire
sexuality "Bisexual" (Gay)
personification The Cowardly Lion
status Dormant
face claim Phil Lester
...appearance*
hair color Naturally brown but currently jet black, because like, brown hair is so mainstream, man.
eye color Green
build Tall and lanky, because like, anyone can have muscles.
height6' 3"
clothing style No Hollister, no Abercrombie, none of that stupid mainstream business (Those brands are huge corporations that like, totally kill animals and child slaves and stuff, as Calvin will gladly tell anyone who will listen) . Independent clothing retailers only, because that's where the real clothes are, real including such staples as skinny jeans, oversized plastic frame glasses (he owns about thirty pairs), fitted hoodies, converse, courier bags, and the like. Look, any h8rs who don't understand his clothing style can GTFO, okay? No judgment. He totally gets that some people just like, aren't on the same level as him. It's cool.
distinctive traits -Almost always has headphones in, and is probably listening to a band you've never heard of. Nah, don't worry, it's cool. Some tastes in music just aren't as sophisticated as others. We can all still have world peace and shit, man.
-Almost always carrying around a stuffed lion named Francois-Andre Danican Philidor. Yeah, he's named after a classical music composer. You probably don't know who he is. He's one of those guys who you have to be like, pretty weird and into music to understand.

personality
Calvin has never been the smartest, but you know what? He’s a firm believer in the fact that if you judge a fish on its ability to climb a tree, then…well, something bad happens to you. Calvin can’t stand when people judge him for who he is, because you know what? Everyone’s a genius in their own way, man. And that includes Calvin. Calvin is such a genius in his own way that anyone who hates on him is just a stupid, uncultured hater who clearly doesn’t understand Calvin and his very unique mind. This applies to everything Calvin does: his post-modern drawings, his post-modern poetry, what he often refers to as his “slightly off-center” style of dress, and his references to obscure, very old writers and composers. Because hey, so what if he can’t really do math problems, or read really complicated stuff, or know anything about politics and stuff? Calvin is a fish, alright? He’s a really really smart, genius fish, and society is asking him to climb a tree. Actually, you know what? Society is the tree. Society is the tree that Calvin has to climb, and fuck society for not understanding that Calvin is not meant to climb, but to swiiiiiiiiim.
The above metaphor is simply one example of the in depth, obscure, and often rather convoluted metaphors that litter Calvin’s speech. He’ll use metaphors to flesh out any description of anything as much as possible, from a comparison of his day to Chopin’s Nocturne in D Flat Minor (you know, super intense, dynamic, that sort of thing) to a simile involving the cereal he’s eating with and “that one part of War and Peace where that thing happens with the people”. He’s rather defensive of his metaphors, as he tends to think that they’re quite creative. Likewise, Calvin is rather infamous for his angry political rants (if he’s a bit too liberal for you to handle you’re just gonna have to deal, man. Its hard to be a crusader for justice, but someone’s gotta bear the burden) and psychoanalyses of people that, regardless of level of accuracy, certainly sound pretty hyper-intellectual if you ask him. And if you’re offended, look man, the truth hurts.
Though Calvin is very forward with political beliefs, opinions of others, and such, what he is not so forthcoming with is his irrational fear of public speaking. While he presents an air of confidence and control and fully considers himself well superior to the majority of those he encounters, this image shatters when Calvin is placed in front of a large crowd. This slightly dehabilitating phobia has limited him more than he’s cared for: while being a decent singer and actor, he’s always been barred from theater, and though he harbors an intense desire to be social and disseminate his clearly superior intellect and insight, he’s often forced to avoid large parties or social gatherings. (I don’t feel like repeating myself so check the past for more info on this)
