He was at least seven feet tall and nearly as broad across the shoulders, with muscles that already were threatening to burst out of his school uniform. Everything about him seemed shiny, cheerful and forthright. A wide, excited smile revealed a pearly white set of teeth, and his blue eyes sparkled with so much ADVENTURE that the word required capitalization. His muscles bulged with anticipation as surveyed the school laid out before him.<br/><br/>It was a sight that filled him with pride.<br/><br/><strong>"AT LONG LAST! I, LIONEL BRONTO GOLDMANN, HAVE ARRIVED!"</strong>He declared, his voice booming over the mingling crowd around him. His voice was loud, deep and filled with an almost ham-handed emotional exuberance. It was very similar to a fantastic hero from a storybook. Specifically one of those dimestore adventure novels where a knight bravely saves a princess from a dragon or something. Everything about Lionel fit that stereotype.<br/><br/>Looking particularly pleased with himself, Lionel placed his hands on his hips and placed foot against a stone fountain. Already, he seemed content to strike a heroic pose for onlookers to, assuredly, marvel at. Most of the other students just looked at him funny, before going about their business. Despite their disinterest with the boisterous man's glorious golden arrival, Lionel didn't even seem to notice. Perhaps they were all cheering in his head?<br/><br/>He seemed like an odd one.
