Name and Number: Gilbert Beilschmidt, 1
Nation: East Germany
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Year: 3rd/Junior (he stayed back, I’ll explain later)
Birthday: January 18th
Team: Red
Personality: To sum it up, Gilbert is obnoxious and egotistical. He is completely aware of how obnoxious he is, seeing as annoying people is one of his favorite past times, but he pretends he doesn’t know he’s obnoxious. However, he is oblivious to how egotistical he is and is convinced everyone else thinks he is completely awesome. He warms up to people quickly, and is quite affectionate. But if you get on his bad side, he will annoy you to no end. He is also quite stubborn, but insists that he is just loyal – which is also true. All of this is just to mask his inner goody-two-shoes.
History: When he was little, Gilbert’s parents went through a nasty divorce, causing his mom to take him to the East side of Germany – away from his dad and brother. He never really knew them, seeing as he was only three at the time, but it was still enough to make him develop some separation anxiety.
When he was in East Germany, he and his mom lived with his grandparents, who grew up during the Holocaust. His grandfather was an active member of the Nazi party and often tried to get Gilbert to join a Neo-Nazi group. He went to please his grandfather, but he strongly disagreed with their views. When his grandfather died, he stopped going and was terrorized by the members of the group for quitting.
Eventually, his mom found out about how the kids in the group were treating him and he was sent to a boarding school in America. It was hard for him to pick up the English language, and was tutored by Antonio Fernandez, who was really his first friend outside the Neo-Nazi group. Despite the tutoring, he still failed his first year due to him not understanding any of the lessons. It’s embarrassing to him, so don’t really mention it.
School Identity: Gilbert is that kid in the back of the classroom who cracks jokes, pays absolutely no attention, and sleeps. However, he still manages to maintain straight A’s and take all honors classes. He likes to push the rules as far as they can go – as is seen in the way he dresses.
Skills: Aside from book smarts, Gilbert can’t really do anything aside from getting in trouble, eating, sleeping and sneezing. Oh, and he can clean. Actually, he gets paid to clean other student’s dorms. It’s his “job”. Oh, and he can draw too, but he never does anything serious about it.
RP Sample: Kesesese~ Gilbert inwardly laughed at the principal’s antics. No way was he going to get the entire auditorium to listen. Everyone was to pre-occupied with catching up with their friends they hadn’t seen over the summer. Speaking of old friends…
He scanned the crowd for Antonio, but could not find the Spaniard. Until he was pushed over by him, that is. A few German swears slipped out and he punched him back. Unfortunately, they couldn’t sit together, due to Gilbert beign a 3rd year, so Antonio sat a few rows ahead. Bored again, he took to kicking the seat in front of him, earning a glare from the girl occupying that seat. Gil sent a flirtatious smile back to her, accompanied by a lewd wink.
When Principal “Rome” finally got the Auditorium under control, students started walking across the stage as they were called and saying either red or blue. Gil had no clue what was going on, but Antonio chose red, as did the cutie that was sitting in front of him. What really made up his mind was when Austria, the guy he loved to annoy the most, also chose red.
“Number 1.” The principal called.
Oh hey, that’s me! Gil inwardly exclaimed and practically frolicked to the stage.
“’Sup,” he greeted the students, “The awesome me will be on the red team! Now you’re sure to win ‘cause I’m so awesome~! Kesesese~!”
Other: Okay, I read a potential Ludwig’s application, and their ages don’t correspond, so I just made their back stories different, but with enough gaps to not be completely different. I hope. I also read a of different char.’s rps to interact with mine.
