FACE CLAIM:[b]DEATH NOTE[/b], [i]LIGHT YAGAMI[/i] — your character
PERSONALITY:
Joshua… well, let’s just say this kid has problems. He is one of the nicest boys of his age in the universe of Earth, but he hates having a power when it’s only use is violent. To people who don't know him well, he is quiet, shy, bashful and clumsy, and may be wrongly seen as a nerd. However, when he opens up to someone he is talkative, happy and even flirty. He is top of his class for most subjects and has taken a keen interest in Science. Often, in the past he delved into books to try and forget the feeling of loneliness because he didn't open up to many people. The reason he doesn't open up is because, well, he doesn't want to hurt anyone, physically or mentally.
He is bullied often for being 'nerdy' although, once you get to know him, he is not at all like that (except for, well, maybe the Science). He doesn't fight back; although he has done in the past... you might wanna not talk about that. Touchy subject, see? He tends to almost be invisible during class, just keeping his head down and taking notes, absorbing the information. He's always on top of his work.
Joshua has only ever had one girlfriend, and that didn't end well. He's had plenty of crushes, and secretly many girls had crushed on him due to his looks. However, he isn't shallow and looks for more than just appearance in a girl. Often he let's the person he's in love with drift off to someone else, simply because he doesn't have the sort of personality that would fight with another man for love. He doesn't show off or kick up a fuss, and so is left lonely.
Although he won't stand up for himself, if he sees a bully pick on someone else, he WILL retaliate. Although it is a very rare occasion that he gets in trouble, this is the main reason. Especially as his way of helping out often causes more destruction than is worth. Often he can't vent his anger at being picked on himself - this, along with his hobbies, are one of the only ways.
He generally dislikes being in crowds, as he feels like at any moment he might lose control of his 'gift'. He always has to maintain a certain degree of concentration, even while asleep, to stop the power from going awry like it used to when he was younger. If he feels extreme emotion, his power will instantly activate and probably destroy everything around him, soo... don't piss him off unless you can handle it.
'Heavy' music (Alternative, metal, hardcore, screamo etc), women (hurrr durrrr), movies with philosophical elements without being too boring, science fiction, spring days, anime, cats, being alone, being in a small group of friends, being in love with someone who returns the favour, understanding Science, improving awesome guitar skills.
DISLIKES:
Being bullied, being in crowds, failing someone, bullies, watching weak people get hurt, being pushed aside, watching people he loves walk away, not understanding something, getting in trouble, breaking a guitar string or messing up a note.
HOBBIES: Playing guitar, writing in a journal, reading, exercising, surfing.
FEARS: Hurting others, being with someone abusive, never being loved, failing.

ANYTHING ELSE: His past is interesting... but don't ask until you get close to him. Else he and I will both kill you, for I haven't thought of it yet and he doesn't wanna talk about it.
