<div class="floatleft">(http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/171/e/1/threadlink_by_doomburg-d3jg794.jpg)</div><strong>Player:</strong>Flaming Dead Man (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=80286.0)<br/><strong>Name:</strong>(true name) Edgar Marks<br/><strong>Age:</strong>19<br/><strong>Gender:</strong>Male<br/><strong>Orientation:</strong>Pansexual/switch<br/><strong>Nationality:</strong>England; no allegiance<br/><br/><strong>Allegiance:</strong>Neutral<br/><strong>Ship:</strong><br/><strong>Rank/Occupation:</strong>Con-artist; takes jobs and positions on ships, then steals a good deal of plunder before disappearing.<br/><strong>Equipment:</strong>These things different according to whatever role he happens to be playing, and the gender he currently uses.<br/><strong>Weapons:</strong>Two daggers that he keeps either strapped to his thighs or to his belt beneath his coat, depending on his dress.  He also carries various poisons, mostly in the form of powder, which could be combined with water to make it more useful.  His poisons are often kept as makeup (when he's female) or spices (when he's male).<br/><br/><strong>Description:</strong>He's very androgynous, capable of pulling of 'male' or 'female' with a little makeup and a change of expression/stance.  His eyes bright brown and his hair is golden blond, reaching to his waist.  He has a a short, slender figure with a slight hourglass shape, his hips a little wider than most males, though he still has to play up the shape when dressing female.  He never (willingly) has sex completely undressed or in light while he's playing a female.  He's very careful to avoid things like scars or other markings, though has developed quite the kit for covering them up, just in case.  He is lucky to have very light-colored, fine facial hair, making it easy to manage when his face should be bare.  He's very, very convincing in his tone of voice in terms of playing male or female and has only a slight lump in his throat, versus something defined and obviously masculine.  His lips are a little fuller than most males, though not so much that it kills his masculinity when dressing the part.  He often keeps his hair tied up or back for both genders and usually wears a collar of some sort (generally a wide-strip of fabric or lace) to hide help hide his adam's apple.<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong>He's a tricky bastard and feels no remorse.  He's a great liar who gets into his characters incredibly well.  His switch personality allows him too be more dominant or submissive in different situations, though tends to be a bit more dominant in an actual relationship and 'non-business' sex.  He normally only visits whore houses or other such establishments for one-night-stands; he can't be bothered with relationships, as they could be troublesome in his line of work.<br/><br/><strong>Biography:</strong>Edgar was born to a small, well-off English family in a busy urban neighborhood.  He was the youngest of three and grew up being teased for his tastes in toys and admirations.  Even so young, he showed signs of his feminine physique and he loved to keep his hair long; he was often mistaken for a female.  He was a clever, devious boy, and by the age of six, he decided to use such tastes and his appearance against others.<br/><br/>He began to steal clothing from sister or from the attic where her old things were kept.  He stole makeup and perfumes, as well, and learned how to make himself up like a pretty, young girl.  He would go to shops and feign that he'd lost his parents, practicing a feminine tone to perfect it.  He conned many folk out of treats and toys to 'quiet' him and such, even managing to steal their wallets on occasion.  He always dressed differently and went off to different areas where he wouldn't be recognized.  The game he'd begun soon became an addiction.<br/><br/>As he grew, his skills built.  He became very sneaky and learned how to use a dagger.  He read about poisons and drugs, learned how to use them effectively.  He even learned how to conn young women out of things -- including their virginities -- by perfecting his gentlemanly, innocent characters.  He left home and school far earlier than he should have, but what he learned on the streets during his childhood was more than enough to keep food on his table.  Outfitted as a doctor, he boarded a ship and began his long journey to the Carribeans.  He arrived when he was seventeen and made his life bouncing between 'jobs' that always ended in seducing and thieving.<br/><br/><strong>Anything else:</strong>He's very flexible, quick, and nimble, though severely lacks in strength.  He's capable of breaking free of most any bond (be it shackles or rope) but couldn't land a good punch to save his life.  He carries himself often as if he's subservient because it's easier to avoid stepping on toes, though he has no problem pulling leadership skills and an air of fierce dominance, if necessary.
