PHILADELPHIA FREEDOM SHINE ON ME
SHINE A LIGHT WON'T YOU SHINE A LIGHT.
SEAN MAURICE THREATT | NINETEEN | CITIZEN | FOLLOWER | N / A[/center][/size]
PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND AGE FOR THE RECORD.
My name is Sean Threatt, I am Nineteen years old and, for the record, I prefer Hot Chocolate.
WHAT BRINGS YOU TO PHILADELPHIA? HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN HERE? DO YOU LIKE IT?
I was born and raised here for Nineteen years. I've been all over the city and have a lot of experience with all types of people here, including supes. Honestly, I think you gotta take Philly on a day by day basis. Some days are good, some days aren't. I'm just takin' it one step at a time.
SO YOU HAD A GOOD EXPERIENCE HERE?
I've had an okay life here. I started in the projects for a good few years. Even though I lived there, my parents were able to get me into kindergarten at Jenkintown Day Nursery where the school bully taught me how to tie my shoes. After I finished Kindergarten, my family moved to Germantown where I spent the rest of my life. After a private school education, I pretty much floated through public school. Because of the fact that I talked much differently than the other kids I was isolated from them, but eventually I learned to dum down my linguistics and assume the role of a 'hood' and integrated myself as best I could.
There'd always be a lot of guys gunning for me. I've pretty much had to fight my way through elementary and middle school, but by high school, I pretty much had a personality set in stone where though people would still try to fuck with me, not many carried through. My place in high school was set in stone and I was actually on popularity's boarder line.
MANY PEOPLE SAY THEY FEAR THE CITY. WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF?
There aren't many things I'm afraid of except for the general tragedies happening to those close to me. I'm very wary of supes, but only because life has taught me to be wary of everyone. I don't hate, or to the lesser extreme, fear anybody, but with the way things are now, people are killing each other everyday. People are stupid nowadays and you have to look over your shoulder constantly. I'm not particularly afraid of dying, so I'm not afraid of people trying to kill me, but I'm not stupid either and fully appreciate my life. Don't mistake common sense for fear.
WHAT ABOUT YOUR DREAMS? WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS?
I dream that soon the City will live up to its name: The City of Brotherly Love, 'cause we all know these brothas out here don't love nobody. Not even themselves. I also hope that one day we will figure out a way to introduce the supes into the world and maybe they can help improve our lives with their supernatural abilities. For now, however, I just need to help maintain the order as best I can so that day can peacefully come to fruition.
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE EXISTENCE OF FAIRY TALE CREATURES--WEREWOLVES, GHOSTS, DRAGONS, PSYCHICS--THINGS LIKE THAT?
I've always had a sinking suspicion, ever since I moved into my house in Germantown, that there were such things as ghosts, but I had to gradually come to grips with the fact that there was much more out there in the world. I always thought my house was haunted, but when I was around fourteen, the ghost of a woman who hung herself in my attic, just below my bedroom, appeared before me. Scared the living shit outta me, but ever since then, I've been very well aware of supes and The System.
I started to get involved around sixteen, first solely through their online influences such as forums, facebook groups, and other such means that I'm not allowed to mention, but I was gradually integrated into the physical world of The System and managing the supes.
HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOURSELF?
I'm a fun-loving kinda guy who, as mentioned earlier, can be a bit wary of supes and other people, but I tend to get along with everyone if they're willing to get along with me. I can be very hesitant when it comes to life situations. If there's something I know I should do, I sometimes allow the situation pass me by, which can mess up my chances at expanding relationships and getting important things done in a timely order.
I can also be a bit of a recluse. Though I know how to interact with people, I'd really rather stay inside, play Xbox and lounge around. That's definitely something to note: I can be very lazy, but if I need to get something important done, best believe I'll get it done. Just on my time. If you really want to know any more about me come chill. I'm pretty much an open book, so what you see is what you get.
THAT'S ABOUT EVERYTHING. IF YOU'LL JUST PLEASE FILL OUT THIS SHEET, WE'LL BE ON OUR WAY.
Recently, I've left Philadelphia to attend college at Penn State, but recently I've been invited back to help out with managing the supes. I'm continuing my education through both Temple and Online with Penn State so my schedule is very flexible. I'm currently unemployed, but I still get some money from my Supervisors and my parents so I'm pretty okay.
NAME
I'm gonna be using my real name throughout so you can use Sean.
CONTACT INFO
PM me. I rarely check anything else.
EXPERIENCE
I've been RPing for an intermediate amount of time. Maybe like two or three years.
ADDITIONAL INFO
Not much else to say since I used myself as my character. I guess I could say this is the first time I've ever RP'd as myself XD
SAMPLE POST
It was a simple and ordinary day for Sean. He just finished up a class and was trying to decide where to go next. If he went home, he would stay there for the rest of the day and chill. That's what always happened when he went home. He would get so comfortable either on the Xbox, his laptop, or just hanging out with his family.
On the other hand, he could go to Center City. He knew if he went there he'd more than likely spend most of his time listening to his MP3 Player as he rode the trains and walked around. He enjoyed listening to his music and, though the people can be a bit creepy, he didn't mind the trains.
He shrugged, then started towards the Broad Street Line with his music in his ears. Linkin Park: Faint, was playing. It was the song that got him into rock music and every now and then he'd go back to it just to revisit himself. It was a nice summer day where it wasn't too hot or too cold. The only reason why he was wearing his red and black hoodie was because his Math classroom was always chilly. He thought about this and laughed at himself in his head. I knew I shouldn't have dropped that Math class in the Spring...
He wasn't a morning person, which was why he couldn't see himself completing that 9:00am Math course with anything higher than a D, so he dropped it. Now, the summer class isn't that bad. It starts at 11:00am and is only a bus and a train ride away from his house. Once he got down to the sub, it was time to pick. North or South? Center City or home? His feet were walking, but his mind had no planned destination. It was like a figurative fork in the road that he was quickly approaching.
He stepped on the platform and his foot turned left, then he started walking in that direction. He looked up. Northbound read the plaque on the wall. Guess I'm goin' to the city for awhile. He smirked again as he set his mind to his next destination. Looks like the city was calling him once again.
