Name: George Lovelace
Door: (George is a reapp, so he should be a Dominant.)

Canon: Tales from the Shadowhunter Academy (part of the Shadowhunter Chronicles of Cassandra Clare)
Canon Point: During Forever Fallen, about four years after his death

Age: 19 (24, mentally)
Appearance: He's described as being tall and broad with brown eyes and curly brown hair. 6'5" and (at least once) described as a Scottish sex god. I use Diego Boneta for a PB.

History: Ave atque vale, George Lovelace, child of the Nephilim. Forever and ever, my brother, hail and farewell.

Since his death, George has been haunting the London Institute with his much-removed cousin Jessamine.
Personality: George is above all things affable, friendly, and unwilling to engage in any kind of emotional confrontation.

+easygoing/-repressive: His roommate Simon, who is the narrator for most of the book he originates in, says that the reason he likes George is because George is never difficult or complicated, and that's sort of what George strives for. Any time a situation is leaning toward being too serious or heavy or emotional, George cracks a joke. Emotions are not something you can fight, so George just ignores them whenever he can.

On occasion, he can be serious and deal with his emotions. Before the ceremony that will either turn him into a half-angel or kill him, George has a brief heart to heart with Simon about Simon being his best friend even if he's not Simon's. Of course, being George, he ends it by saying, "Are we going to have to hug now?"

+loyal: He wants to be a good bro. When it comes to his friends, he basically wants to keep them happy and safe at all times. If that means tromping down to live in the moldy basement in solidarity with the other mundane students, he can do that. If it means making an idiot of himself to create a distraction while a friend sneaks out of the dining hall, he can do that. And if it means throwing himself into the path of a faerie warrior to save a friend, he can do that too.

+altruistic/-hero complexGeorge wants to be a hero. He left his family's sheep farm at the first chance for adventure. He tells Simon, "Everybody in this academy, Shadowhunters and mundanes, people with the Sight and without it, everyone of them is looking to be a hero. We are all hoping for it, and trying for it, and soon we will be bleeding for it." In the end, George dies for it, and he never gets to be the kind of hero he was looking for.

He wants to do some good in the world. He's always been athletic and good-looking, and people have always liked him, but Shadowhunting was the first thing he ever wanted to do that was actually heroic, that put his athleticism to some use off the football pitch. He wants to be a hero badly enough to risk his life for the chance to do so.

-hedonistic: After spending several years as a ghost, unable to touch anyone or anything, unable to eat or drink, and with literally no one to talk to but his prudish, Victorian cousin, George will be almost obsessed with the physical world, pursuing every sensation he can, from food to sex to pain. He wants to feel things now that he can, and he'll have very little motivation not to follow those impulses.

-avoidant/-hot-tempered: Confrontation is not his thing. He will put off addressing an issue in personal relationships until it bothers him enough to blow up about it. It doesn't take him long to settle again, but he can and has run his mouth at the wrong time and gotten into trouble with friends. This also translates to him being bad in a crisis. When he's forced to confront something without preparation, he tends to freeze and/or go for the easiest reaction.

Powers and Abilities: He's a trained Shadowhunter (demon-hunter), but he doesn't have any of the angelic power that goes with it, so basically he's about super-spy/soldier level martial expertise, ala Black Widow but without the cool tech and with a familiarity with more archaic weapons.

Because of this training, he also has a smattering of Latin, Greek, Arabic, and Cthonian.

He's pretty good at tennis too! Most sports come easily to him.
Inventory: Just the Lovelace family ring.
