Turn away 'cause I need you more
Personality>>Ryan prefers trying to talk his way out of trouble. He is a good orator. While Ryan is really more of a thinker, because of the many times he's been brought to a new place, with new children that think they can bully him, he has grown to be able to fight to defend himself or someone else if necessary. Usually, however, his older brother takes care of him. Ryan enjoys being able to have intellectual discussions with people he considers acquaintances. While he loved traveling around with his family, he hates that he was never able to make any good friends, and he still isn't too good at it. He loves riding and horses, but he isn't terribly good at it, because he was never able to get an uninterrupted education
Likes>> The Army, his family, languages, horses, shooting {Not people!}
Dislikes>> Never calling a place home, chihuahuas, being bullied, fighting, knives
Fears>> Losing his father, his parents getting divorced, losing his brother, snakes
Hopes>> Learn to ride better, stay in one place for a while
Secrets>> He doesn't really want to follow his father's footsteps and join the Army, he wants to join the Navy
It’s the way I’m feeling I just can’t deny
Appearance>> Ryan stands at about 6 feet in height. He is muscular, but not overly so. His hair is brown and cut longer than the average Army cut. He had to get his hair cut so often, he rebelled and let it grow out to what is definitely not an acceptable cut if he were in the service. His light grey eyes are normal, not wide, not narrow. His skin is pale, but tanned. He tends to wear clothes that are slightly too big and fit him loosely. He always wears a set of dog tags that just say his name.
Markings>> N/A
But I’ve gotta let it go
Medical History>> Any illnesses, broken bones, etc.
Criminal History>> Nope... He's still alive, isn't he?
Full History>>Ryan was born on an Army base in the Phillipines where his father was stationed at the time. For most of his life, he moved around with his family, usually every three or four months. He started school in Berlin, but didn't even finish the year there. To date, he has not finished a school year in the same school, or even the same country, than he started it in. Because of how often they moved, he was not a stranger to bullying. His older brother, Jack, always helped take care of him and keep him safe. Ryan looked up to Jack for his fighting skills, but the soft-spoken boy was more set for thinking his way out of trouble. He always did better than Jack in school, another reason he was the easier target. Despite their differences, the brothers were really close, and great friends.
When he started getting older, Ryan got into riding. He learned the basics from various stable-masters of the ceremonial horses while they were stationed in bases that had them. He never had a favorite horse, because they often left before he could form a bond with any one animal. He did learn to sit in a saddle, and how to take care of the animals.
When he had just turned sixteen, he decided that he didn't want to keep moving around. He persuaded his mother and father to let him come to a boarding school where he could actually stay, and perhaps make some connections. His parents found Blue Ridge and signed him up, although they didn't tell him that it had horses.
We found love in a hopeless place
