Thomas B. Collins
The Dreamer
Your Name: Riley; I prefer to be called Are Jay (pronounced RJ which are my first and middle name initials Are Jay is just a cool way to spell it)
Age: 15 (almost 16)
Time Role-playing: Like when I started Role-playing? Well *goes off to check her first RP MySpace* Well according to my Collins MySpace (which was my first) I have been RPing since May 3, 2007
How'd you find us? Great Big Apartment (I’ve been reading the Ed/Cha-Cha RP on there XD)
Any other characters? Numerous Character’s On MySpace and various other places but this is my first here.
The Dream
Name: Thomas Byron Collins
Age 29
Occupation: Professor Of Computer Age Philosophy At New York University
Sexuality: Homosexual
HIV/AIDS Status: Positive
The Visage
Avatar Claim: Jesse L. Martin
Eye Color: Brown
Hair Color: Black
Height: 6’ 1”
Weight: 190
Facial Features: He has a goatee type thing going on with his facial hair.
Anything Else? He has a tattoo of Maggie Moo (the mascot for an Ice Cream chain he had had an ice cream at before getting the tattoo) He got it when he was drunk with encouragement from Maureen and it’s on his forearm.
Overall Dress/Appearance: He is African American and he doesn’t really care what he looks like, his hair his curly afro-ish when it’s grown out. He and he really doesn’t care how he dresses, he wears lots of layers normally and has been known to wear clothing for more than two days in a row.
The Demeanor
Overall Personality: Collins is a Catalyst, he’ll jump start all the crazy happenings, if him and Maureen begin to talk about streaking, he’ll be the first one to get up and actually do it. He is also just a big teddy bear, and understanding, he may not be good at giving advice or solving the problems but if a friend needs to vent or needs a shoulder to cry on, he’s the one to go to. Collins loves to laugh too, in turn he makes others laugh as well.
At the same time as being loveable and sweet, Collins can also be very sarcastic and assertive when it’s need…he’ll kick some ass if someone messes with his “family”, and if he needs to be hard on members of said “family”, he will be.
What is your character's deepest secret? He did hard drugs once, he’s really of ashamed of that
What is your character's strongest desire? He wants to get out of New York to some place nice.
The Past
Family:
PARENTS (Divorced):
-Mother: Michelle Collins
-Father: Byron Collins (Not-Speaking; Cut Off)
SIBLINGS:
-Little Brother: Darius Collins
Previous and Current Romantic Relationships: He was with his last boyfriend Alex for 4 years until he found out Collins was HIV+, now he’s involved with Angel.
History: Thomas Byron Collins was born to a teenage mother and a nowhere-to-be-found father January 18, 1961. It was so taboo for his mother to be raising a child alone at her age that she gave him away for adoption. When he was four months old he was adopted by Michelle and Byron Collins, who named him. When he was Six he was joined by a little brother, Darius, who he was very close to growing up. When he was sixteen he came out to his close friends that he was gay, the following year he came out to his family. Collins’ father didn’t take it too well, it caused a fight between his father and his mother, who supported him, and that fight led to them divorcing. After the divorce, his father cut him off and he has spoken to him since he was 18. He moved to NYC when he was 20 years old with his boyfriend, Alex. They moved in with a few friends that lived there. That’s when the crazy stuff started. Collins sputtered through college while still being into partying hardy at night. He did some stuff he wasn’t too proud of and that wasn’t too safe.
When he was 24 years old, Collins discovered he was HIV positive. When told Alex, he immediately broke up with him, leaving him alone and scared. Collins had to get away from New York so he transferred to MIT to get away, returning on holidays. He got his degree in Philosophy and began to intern at MIT as a TA until they expelled him for some acts he committed. He got offered a teaching gig from NYU, and decided to move back to city.
Let Us Begin...
RP Sample: “Shit” Collins mumbled wiping a substance that he guessed was his blood from under his nose. He looked at the dirty sleeve which had red and wet residue on it. Yeah it was blood. “Great…welcome home” He muttered somewhat spitefully coughing. Those guys had knocked the wind out of him.
Collins felt like he was going to die, maybe he was, maybe it was his time? No he couldn’t think like that. Collins did something he hadn’t done since he was maybe ten…he prayed. He prayed for an angel to save him, he coughed and turned his head in pain, he heard a voice “Oh my god you okay honey” The person ran to him and crouched down to get a good look at his injuries. “I’m Angel” The person’s voice was warm. “Angel” Collins repeated, he didn’t think he’d actually get an Angel to save him but he was glad he did.
