Though, I have to admit, a good number of people in this town already know the truth of me. But then there are those out there naive enough to believe that I'm genuinely the good boy. I put on a different face depending on who and what people want to see and who and what I want them to see. It's simple as that, really. To some, I'm the ruthless bad boy. The one who'll do anything to meet his own goals by his own means. I'm ambitious, I admit. I have a hard time backing down from a challenge and I suppose I developed that little issue from a fairly young age. In a town like this and with a name like mine, you either get swallowed whole, or you stand up for yourself and make a name for yourself. So I chose the latter. I'm not a pool boy. I'm not a sucker. I come from a privileged family and a privileged life. This is who and what I am. Call me arrogant if you want, but at the heart of it, there are a few points you can't argue. One; my family is renowned in these parts. Two; I have money backing my name. A lot of it. Three; I'm confident and charismatic when I want to be. And Four; I can pull it all off and still manage to influence the people around me. The other side that people see at social functions and events for the most part is the side that I tend to let shine when I need to most of all. I can be charismatic and charming, but I'll always be in control. I guess some would call me manipulative, and I suppose I couldn't argue that point. I am, really. I do things for specific reasons and while I might attend charity events and fundraisers, it's all for publicity. It's a fine balance being in the position that I'm in at the moment, really. And I do it damned well. I admit, I get bored easily enough when it comes to women. They're all really the same most of the time. Pretty things just willing to throw themselves at you for a bit of quick fun. I like a challenge and most of them just... aren't a challenge at all. The bottom line, really, is that I like winning. And I have what it takes to win, regardless of what strings I have to pull in order to win. appearance I'm about 6'2". Fairly tall, I suppose. Dark brown hair that I usually keep a medium sort of length... for a guy, anyhow. My eyes are green and yes, I do keep in shape. Damned good shape, if I do say so myself. There's one thing I've learned and that's the fact that a woman will only put up with so much of your crap... unless you're good looking. Which I suppose I'm lucky enough to be. In terms of the way I dress...? Fairly normally, I guess. I mean... I pull off the whole suit and tie thing when it's called for and do it pretty damned well. But I'm the kind of guy that prefers sort of... off-kilter suits. If everyone's expected to be wearing black suits... I'll wear white. I'm not insane like some of those guys with patterned suits out there, but you catch my drift. But when it comes to how I prefer to dress... I like playing up the bad boy persona most of the time. It works for me, what can I say? T-Shirts and Jeans... a leather jacket. They all work and so, they stay. Simple, really. history I was born in Myrtle Beach, though I admit that I've bounced back and forth between here and DC a fair bit since I was in my early teenage years. I've always lived a rather privileged life. Myrtle Beach is a popular vacationing spot and I've always lived somewhere along the beach. You know. That kind of thing. I've always had ambition working on my side, admittedly. From a young age, I knew what I wanted in life and started reaching for it readily. I wanted to win. I've always wanted to win. And here I am. High school came and went pretty easily for me. Played football and rugby and just about any other sport I could fit into my schedule, really. Yes, I was popular with women, though they only wound up sticking around for so long when I got bored of them. Which worked damned well for me in the end anyhow. School councils and things like that were always on my 'to-do' list. I spent more time out of the house than I did in. And it wasn't all fun and games. Despite the fact that I looked like a boyscout for everything I was doing, it was all a part of the bigger picture. At the moment, I'm in school studying economics and politics. You know... doing the university thing like any good boy would be doing. But believe me... I haven't been terribly good at the heart of things. I have a steady group of people that I hang out with... You know... in my fraternity. The same Fraternity that I will be the President of in the 2013 school year. It's all a part of the stepping stones for bigger portents to come. And you know... they say that all of the greats in the world follow in similar footsteps. Well. I plan on being great and I follow in those same footsteps. As it would be, I've already been inducted into a society of sorts. A group of people even tighter than a fraternity for the fact that they stand behind the curtains, pulling strings. Don't look at me like that. You think it's shady, but I'll tell you that I've seen damned pleasing results to date. Sometimes you have to take a leap in order to gain something from it. And if you don't have the head or guts for it, you're screwed, really. My father's a part of it. And look at him. He's a bloody senator now, with his big office in DC. I'll be there someday... though I have much higher ambitions than senate and I have the drive to get there and the contacts and charisma to make sure it happens. I have huge goals at the heart of it all. Call me arrogant. Call me naive. Call me whatever the hell you want. Just remember. In a few years, when I'm making a name for myself... There's not a chance in hell that I'll forget the names of those who have ridiculed me. Hello, my name is MEL and I am 23 years old. I have been RPing for 10+ years and this is my 2ND character.
