Anything Else?Nope
Overall Dress/Appearance: (Is choosing not to work on this part as I think it will be difficult for me but I will meantion that he always has his signature scarf with him.)
The Demeanor
Overall Personality: He's very sarcastic and almost light hearted on the outside, but you can tell that he cares about his friends like a second family. Almost to the point where he kind of lives through them and doesn't really take care of himself. He doesn't want to think about what's going to happen if he had to lose them all.[Thanks to Jasmine for helping me out with this part] This is why he has a little desire to finish his film,kind to capture his friends in a film,hoping to be something both he and friends,new and old,could remember for a long time to come.
But another part of his personality comes in when he is filming,he likes to be very observant. Observant for him to tends to mean that he notices things and people around him and the things he captures on film,only tends to be things that he,like any other director,finds to be of great importance and such things to him.
What is your character's deepest secret? Losing all of his friends.[His only secret for now...]
What is your character's strongest desire? He has two--to finish his film,is a way to immomblize his friends and to have his life turned around by something unspected.
The Past
Family: Shari and Brian Cohen,Mother and Father
Justin and Cindy Long's Home,Little Sister and Brother in Law
Previous and Current Romantic Relationships: Was in a relationship with Maureen Johnson but was dumped. No current romantic relationships. [For now.]
History:
Born twenty four years ago to Shari and Brian Cohen,Mark was born as the first born of the Cohen children and he was a joy in the family....until his sister came along and all the attention that she needed--but of course his sister was a couple of years younger than him so he got to be the attention one for a while. He was not usually the most jealous type when it came to his sister--he loves her to bits really like any other brother would. His childhood was vaguely normal for a boy his age although he hated when his relatives pinched his cheeks whenever he sees them--it annoyed him to an extent but something amazing occured when he turned ten...you see when little Marky was a kid,he was rather curious and his curiousity got to him when he discovered one of the things that now makes Mark....well,Mark.
He and his family were gathered for his sister's birthday,Mark saw his uncle with a rather old looking camera,which would become Mark's signature camera, and asked him what it was. Mark was told that it was a camera for capturing films and his uncle taught him how it worked and Mark instantly feel in love with the prospect of filming and so little curious Mark grew up and annoyed his family with all the little filming that he did--but he knew somehow that it would be he life's work--he loved recording reactions and immortalizing those he knows...say hello to Mark the filmer.
Years later,Mark found himself wanting to get his butt out of Scarsdale,wanting to fiqure out something with his life. Rather immortalize than just his regular family and that is where his best friend,Roger came in. The two both had one thing on their mind--to get out of Scarsdale---and well,they did just that as they both made their way out of that place and to New York,where Mark first met his second girlfriend at the time,Maureen. Some time later,Mark,Maureen,Benny,Roger and Collins moved in together. For a while before he moved in the great amount of best friends,he studied at Brown for a while and yet he found himself quite bored with it and so now found himself without an education and later without a girlfriend as Maureen dumped him for a lawyer,Joanne. Mark was crushed most definately by being dumped for a while,he went into a state of sadness and depression. All of the friends he had were falling apart now---but somehow,someway,he managed to survive,even more so since he stuck by Roger,his best friend,through every thing from when April died to helping Roger get through his addition. Mark was a friend,first and foremost. But he still lives with the sadness within some part of him of losing Maureen. Now,he still films to his heart's content with his little camera and tries to finish his film---making new friends along the way. Who knows what life may bring new for Mark Cohen?
Let Us Begin...
RP Sample: "Daylight,Mark Cohen's apartment..."Mark whispered as he sat on the couch of his and Roger's apartment,looking up at the ceiling with his camera,not filming anything but just sitting there like he was. He was just sitting there...all alone...again. For the umpteeth time in his natural life ever since Maureen dumped him---he has been alone. But then again,when he first met Joanne,he heard she was dealing with the same things he was--it was almost like he knew it exactly but also the things between him and Maureen was almost like an obsession to him. An obsession that he couldn't seem to escape from. It was weird to him,yes,but Mark had his reasons...
Another thing came upon Mark's mind,his film...everything he did now was film. Film and stare into the the abyss that was his world and everything around him---he had a feeling that his film would never be finished---that it would never be complete and his friends would never see the completed protect--even Mark had his doubts---would he ever complete the film? Will it greatly immortalize his friends and all others for years to come? He could only hope...Mark Cohen could only hope. Hope and keep on filming.
