Name: Afonso Joao De Gabriel Silva
Country of Origin: Portugal
Gender Male
Age: 25
Height: 5”10
Weight: 175
Appearance: Afonso is fairly tall, with a lean build, though that’s not to say he doesn’t at least have some muscles showing. He has long dark brown hair, a bit wavy and generally pulled back into a ponytail tied with a red ribbon. He has green eyes, and is fairly tanned as a result of all the time spent outdoors. He generally wears simple brown pants and a white button down shirt.
(-will draw a proper picture soon-)
Crew member of: La Madre Maria
Status: Navigator
Personality: Afonso is, to say the least, rather laid back at first glance. He tends to take things as they come, generally with a smile on his face. However, beneath the surface he is a very prideful young man with a fierce temper. And while he generally manages to keep said temper under control, there are times where he can completely lose control; though those instances are few and far between. Afonso is very loyal to his friends, though that doesn’t keep him from teasing them when the need arrives. He also can’t help but love exploring new areas. Though that sometimes gets him into some trouble. Afonso also tends to suffer from horrible head aches, though that is only when he is having particularly bad attacks of déjà vu.
History: Afonso grew up with a fairly normal life. He had a good family, made good friends, studied hard. It was a normal life really. But Afonso never deemed himself as being “normal”. It was something he could never explain, just a feeling deep down that he wasn’t the same as his peers, or even his family. First of all, the amounts of déjà vu he received was immense. He got it all the time practically! That, to him, was definitely not normal. Especially since much of it happened while learning about his country’s history.
And then there were his dreams. Dreams of wars, ones he was a participant in. Of a young man with large eyebrows. Of an even younger man with dark brown hair and a tomato. Of others, ones whose names he would forget the moment he awoke along with their faces. But there was always one thing remained in his mind.
They would all call him Portugal. They would refer to him as his nation.
Afonso told these dreams to no one, after all, he was sure anyone else would think he was insane if he shared them! So he continued on with his “normal” life until he was 20, where he chose to leave his home of Lisbon, Portugal, gaining passage on a passing ship and exploring the seas with utter curiosity.
Now, at age 25, Afonso continues his life of traveling, carrying with him maps of the different seas he’s traveled. Hoping that maybe, just maybe, if he continues to explore, he could explain these strange dreams and déjà vu.
Did you read the rules? Who is a Beastie?: Jack Sparrow!
(I hope this is alright for him, I wasn’t sure how to approach the whole nation identity… And I always forget how long his name is ._.)
