Name: Drake Adamski
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Hometown: Downtown Los Angeles, California
Hobbies and Interests: Working Out, Heavy Metal, Drinking, Brawling, Showing Off, Partying

Appearance: Standing at 6'1 and weighing 175 pounds, Drake is a physically impressive individual. Thanks to his strict exercise regime, his body is well-toned and very muscular, something which he loves to show-off and brag about whenever he gets the opportunity to do so. His bulging biceps in particular are a definite eye-catcher, although the fact that his body is covered in coarse hair puts a lot of people off the idea of finding him attractive.

The first thing most people notice when they see Drake is his long dirty blonde dreadlocks, which he usually wears loose unless he's in the gym. His skin is pale, which along with his blonde hair and blue eyes gives him a notably Aryan appearance. He has a chiselled jaw and thick dark eyebrows, which along with his broken nose and the demonic tattoos that cover his arms serve as an intimidating warning to people that he isn't the kind of person who you want to cross. As a finishing touch, Drake often likes to try out different styles of facial hair from time to time, his most recent style being an obnoxious chin curtain.

Clothing wise, Drake is often found wearing a dark grey wife-beater and ripped jeans with black combat boots. He also often wears black wristbands and several skull-shaped rings on his fingers.

Biography: Having been brought up in Downtown Los Angeles by an alcoholic father and a depressive gambling addicted mother, Drake's childhood wasn't exactly the easiest. Since an early age, he's had to learn the hard way that only the toughest in life get to reap the benefits, and as a result has grown to become an especially nasty and vicious individual.

During his brief time at school, Drake quickly worked his way up the food chain as a bully to become one of the most feared students at his school, which alongside several incidents and extremely poor grades has led him to become expelled from nearly every school he's ever attended. Not that ever truly bothered Drake, who had more-or-less given up on ever getting a proper education the moment he realised that schoolwork was the most boring thing imaginable. For the most part, he's perfectly satisfied with working at a local KFC in order to earn the money he needs, and when all else fails he'll always leech of his parents income.

To say that Drake is an extroverted person would be a grievous understatement. There is nothing Drake loves more then being the centre of attention, which is often the case considering his loud and boisterous personality. He loves to crack inappropriate jokes, insult people and generally make a huge mess wherever he goes without so much as a second thought for what everyone else around him thinks. He likes to speak his mind, and rarely holds back whenever he's talking to someone, which considering the fact he's an incredibly crass-minded and foul-mouthed person has often led to him directly insulting nearly everyone he meets. To makes matters worse, back in his hometown he's an infamous womaniser, and an unrepentant misogynist to boot. And despite the fact that he's already in a relationship with a girl called Felicia, he'll often act lecherous towards any women whom he happens to find even remotely attractive.

Naturally, because of his antagonistic personality, Drake makes enemies very easily. And has over the years found himself in more fights then he can even remember. Fights which, thanks to his excessive strength, he's rarely lost. Whilst at first his tendency to get into fights used to simply be a negative side effect of his caustic personality or an attempt to defend himself, eventually he grew to enjoy the adrenaline rush he had whenever he was in a brawl, to the point where he sometimes deliberately provokes people just so he could have someone to test his strength against. Whilst he's tried to put one of his few genuine skills to good use by joining various Wrestling clubs, one way or another he always finds himself being kicked out eventually. The most common reason being that whenever Drake actually finds himself to be on the losing side of a fight, he'll always rely on dirty tactics in order to win.

Part of the reason why fighting is one of the few things which Drake is genuinely good at is because of the fact that working out happens to be one of the few things in life which he takes seriously. Seeing as his early childhood was spent defending himself from bigger kids, Drake has always made a good effort to make sure that he's in good condition so that he would always be able to defend himself should things take a turn for the worst. As a result, during the day he regularly finds himself at the local gym lifting weights and doing push-ups. He even owns a couple of his own weights for days when the gym is closed, and adheres to a surprisingly strict exercise regime.

Of course, there are other things in life which Drake loves apart from fighting. For as long as he could remember, he's always been a massive fan of all kinds of Metal-related music genres. Whether it's Thrash Metal, Nu-Metal, Death Metal or even good old fashioned Heavy Metal, if it features an electric guitar playing loud and fast beats then Drake would probably like it. Whenever there is a local rock concert going on, you'll be almost guaranteed to find Drake there head-banging the night away.

Despite his antagonising personality, even a guy like Drake has a handful of people whom he'd refer to as his friends. Mostly aggressive and foul-mouthed metalheads like himself, who for the most part mainly stick around with him solely because they know that nobody would dare to touch them if they knew that they were friends with Drake Adamski. Naturally, his love of being the centre of attention has often led him to attend numerous parties, many of which he gatecrashes uninvited. Usually these wild parties end with him getting drunk out of his mind, something which most people don't really mind seeing as he's usually a lot less aggressive when he's drunk then he is when he's sober.

Drake doesn't play many video-games, or read any comic books. He does, however, love action and horror movies with a passion, and as a result he owns his own DVD collection of ultra violent movies. There are only three types of programs on television which he doesn't bore him to death: Wrestling, Porn and SOTF: Arena. SOTF: Arena in particular being one of his all-time favourite TV shows, and one of the few that he'll watch on a regular basis.

Despite all his machismo, antipolonism is one of the few things in life that genuinely offends Drake, seeing as his family happens to be of Polish-American decent. By far the easiest way of getting Drake angry is to call him a polack, a term which he used to be called constantly when he too young to fight back, and as a result it's grown to become a word which he despises with every fibre of his being. Incidentally, despite being easily offended by people who're racist towards poles, Drake himself happens to be something of a hypocrite, seeing as he's well-known for being openly racist towards nearly every minority he can think of.

STATS

Strength: 8
Skill: 1
Stamina: 6
Speed: 5

DESIGNATED PBRN (Brown Player)

Designated Weapon: Medieval Lance

Conclusions: Definitely one of our front-runners. That weapon's a bit unwieldly, but if anyone can handle it, it's this guy. If Drake doesn't at least make it to the semi-finals I will be extremely surprised - as will plenty of gamblers, I'm sure.

TEMPORARILY DENIED.

We've talked about your character before, Fiori, and I'm mostly fine with him, there's just one or two things I'd prefer you toned down before I accept him.

Mostly what I'm put off by is the abuse, both the kind he got from his father and the kind he gives to his girlfriend. They're just not really described all that much, and Drake's already pretty over-the-top as is, so I think it'd be better if you wrote it out. I'm not saying he has to have a great relationship with his parents or girlfriend, but violent abuse just strikes me as a bit much for a character that's already pushing the limits of what I'll accept.

I'm also curious what he does for work if he's a 19-year-old dropout - do his parents support him? Is he able to hold down any kind of job? He must be able to support his partying and concert-going somehow.

Like I've told you before, I don't mind your character being a bit extreme, it's kind of the point of this game in the first place, and I've totally met guys like this in high school, I'd just like him toned down just a little bit first.

Better. This is about the limit for extreme characters I'll accept, though, just so everyone knows. That is to say, no crazier than this dude.

Anyway, ACCEPTED! (4/16)

This topic will be moved to the character roster forum and the player number, weapon and conclusions will be added shortly.
