Name: Junior Préval (orz, I totally ripped this off of Google, so don't blame me if it has like, nothing to do with Haitians. XD)
Country of Origin: Republic of Haiti
Gender Male
Age: 20
Height: 5'2, 157cm
Weight: 119 lbs, 54kg
Appearance:
(Face Claim: Kobayakawa Sena form Eyeshield 21, squeee~ And sorry, tiny pic is tiny. =/)
Crew member of: n/a
Status: n/a
Pet: n/a
Crest: n/a
Personality:
Junior is much like his name: unremarkable and pretty forgettable. He has no redeeming features other than his short height and his nimble body. Having about the ego of a pin and the confidence of a pea, he relies on whomever he thinks is strong, but he is not a wishy-washy surfboard. He watches and observes from afar people who are strong, and he desperately tries to imitate them and become stronger himself. However, in most cases, he fails to become anything other than a laughing stock, and that only diminishes his self-esteem. He's jealous of and respects people who are big and muscular, due to his small and pretty frail body.
However, he's not totally pathetic. Sort of. Because of his small body, he's able to climb anything relatively easily. A mast? Check. The side of a house? Yup. A fifteen-foot fence? You bet. He can scale anything and everything quickly, along with fitting into lots of places people wouldn't even think of going into. Although it only further makes people tease him for his first name, Junior doesn't care that much. If he can be of some help, he's happy.
His most treasured values are respect and vigility. To him, these are the most important traits anyone can have. He is a bit formal when it comes to things, especially to anyone in a higher rank to him, but he's always careful to watch around and see what others are feeling, doing, etc. Too bad he's too much of a coward and pathetic creature for most people to notice, though.
Junior also gets hurt easily, and he does take some time to recover cough earthquakes cough, but when he does get injured (which is often), he'll try to keep out of sight until he recovers due to embarrassment. This is one of the main reasons he tends to rely on others without noticing.
History:
Junior was born one size too small in his own house on the day of April 17th. He was the first and last child his parents ever had. That isn't to say he was abandoned or hated by his parents, oh no. He was pampered as much as his family could afford it--which wasn't all that much--and his mother always told him that to make up for his size, God had given him a bigger heart and head while he was being born in her womb. To this day, he still remembers her telling him that whenever the local kids teased him and made him do their dirty work.
When he was seven, he still hadn't gotten an education, and he was as clumsy as ever. Still, though, his parents never lost faith in him. They had always wanted a big family, but they simply just couldn't support another child, so they waited patiently for the money to trickle in. Junior, knowing this, started to study at the church when he wasn't being chased around town by the 'big kids'. That's where he learned morals, ethics, and responsibilities. The church priest was a single man, and he started to discipline Junior as if he was his own son, and taught him the mannerisms and speech patterns of the local folk.
At age ten, the church priest took Junior with him to his new church far far away from Junior's small birthtown. His parents let him go reluctantly after seeing how eager Junior was to leave with the priest and explore everywhere that he could. Sadly, things went downhill from there. The priest was not very welcome in the new town, and neither was Junior. The bullying escalated and his life was harder than what it had been before.
Then an idea hit him. If he could become stronger, if he could become intimidating and tough, no one would hurt him. But there was an obstacle: how? He knew how. He would learn. He would go to the most dangerous place to learn from the toughest of people and then he would become strong himself. He would show his parents that the gifts that God had given him were not wasted. So he packed up his things, left in the middle of the night, and spent five months kissing up to a all-bark-and-no-bite pirate captain before he first set sail away from Haiti at the age of fifteen.
