Ethan Chandler | Penny Dreadful

OOC INFORMATION.
NAME & PRONOUNS: Daily, she
CONTACT: [plurk.com profile] accessories, Discord (wartheatre) or PM.
ABOUT YOU: I started roleplaying at the old beseen chats but really got into it on LJ at games like Ataraxion, God and Man (also God Vs Man), Polychromatic, Paradisa and others. I dropped out of games entirely for about a decade and only just jumped into this one in September, so I'm still trying to get back into the groove of things. CST time zone and I will backtag until the end of time if you'll allow me.
CHARACTERS: Just this himbo here.

IC INFORMATION.
ETHAN CHANDLER
AGE: 35
CANON: Penny Dreadful
CANON POINT: Several months post series. Why? Because the biggest crime in that show, aside from season 3, is the fact that they cut Ethan's hair. Don't judge me.

ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER: Mr. Chandler here is an angsty sharpshooter who acts tough, cocky and distant but is really kind on the inside. Saying he has been through some truly messed up things is an understatement and they're graphic so I'm not going to list them here. Either way! His carefully crafted stage persona masks his internal suffering, which he also tries to tame through drinking, and he is not the type of person who would let just anyone in. While not typically wearing his heart on his sleeve, though he can, it's easy enough to read him if you look at his eyes. He is a southern gentleman through and through, complete with the drawl, flirtations and outfit to match what one might expect a gunslinger from the west to wear. He's intolerant of those who step on the backs of people weaker than them, and it is one of the quickest ways for him to lose his temper.

His "secret" isn't a secret anymore, he outed himself as a werewolf after the attack on the night of the 27th. As a werewolf, Ethan loses all reason and essentially blacks out, giving full control to the wolf. Friends become foes and he'll do whatever he can to kill or maim whoever he encounters unless that person happens to be Vanessa Ives.

CR YOU WANT: I'm going to be one of those and say I'm up for any and all CR, I don't have any specifics in mind. I've slowly been trying to build up his core CR group for the last month and a half so I'm aiming to start jumping on someone new, especially since some of his CR has left the game. Ethan is the type of person who looks out for people. He's incredibly annoyed that this place is holding the teenagers "hostage" so, whether they like it or not, he will big brother at them if they do anything especially stupid. Then play the I'm older than you so zip it card if they try to throw it back on him. Hypocrite.

I'd also kill for him to meet another werewolf because he would thoroughly pick their brains in an attempt to figure out how he might control himself during the full moon. ( Bonus points if it's Twilight so he can comment on shirtless werewolves and simultaneously be horrified by sparkly vampires.) Looking at you, Lestat.
CR YOU DON'T WANT: I'll take the good, the bad and the ugly. Come at me. He tends to fall back on snark when confronted with a particularly high and mighty type.

PLOTTING & PLANS: The only things worth noting are the fact that he'll be working security at the Host Club and he's going to be working with various people to find a more permanent method of keeping the wolf contained during the full moon. As he attacked people on the 27th, he's not going to be as eager to approach anyone new for a bit -- though he will inform them of his affliction if they approach him. Maybe he should wear one of those revised "kick me" signs or have a plaque on his door that reads -- Beware of Werewolf.
HANDWAVED CR: Love it! Ethan helps out at the Welcome Diner occasionally and will be at the Host Club making sure no one gets handsy with the hosts/hostesses or rowdy with the staff. Aside from that he's begun haunting the Bookstore, patrols the streets at night (except during the full moon) and can usually be found writing notes in his journal in the Graveyard or any other quiet place. As of December, he'll also be partaking in Daan's first aid classes.

ANYTHING ELSE: Look at this dweeb in his showman costume. No wonder he has issues.
Showman!Ethan
