Description Yes Taliah, I finally logged in Bastard computer wouldn't let me log in earlier...anyway, onwards. I'm an OC whore, seriously, so here's one I adopted! I'm acutally going to provide detailed information about this character that will take me a while and come straight off the top of my head 'Cuz that's how all of my characters get their stories. Cut afew out since I want him everyone, even me, to know everything about him.

Basic Statistics

Name: Gyran [Phonetics - Guy-ran]
Nicknames: Guy, Little guy
Age: Seven
Current Residence: Sewers of New York
Talents/Skills: He is a stong swimmer and can lift rather heavy loads. He is also a very good reader, he loves to look up and learn new words.
Parents (describe relationship): Leatherhead and Beauty. Guy is rather scared of LH, his immense size intimidates him greatly. Leatherhead often tries to connect with the lad but the connection isn't there; not to mention the fact that Gyran is usually unwilling to speak with LH alone. Beauty, being the sweet natured being she is, always tries to make Gyran feel at home, like he's part of the family. She's still getting used to his attitude; since he's not outwardly emotional, she feels like she must do more to bond but doesn't want to pester him or invade his space.
Siblings (describe relationship): Pierre is technically Guy's uncle; however, due to his young age of two, the brotherly relationship is natural. Pierre constantly badgers Guy, wanting to spend time with his new "brother". Though Guy loves Pierre dearly and wants nothing more than to play and laugh with him, but doesn't know how to go about it, and is too scared to try. Even when he is asked, the courage to say yes always escapes him.
Relationship skills: As mentioned before, Guy has virtually no relationship skills. He spent most of his life alone and is learning to be around other people. He is petrified of approaching anyone yet yearns for the close bonds that the mutants around him share.

Physical Characteristics

Height: 3ft 5
Eye Color: Dark, dull green
Distinguishing features: His markings, particularly the "heart shaped" mark on his right ankle.
Mannerisms: Guy has neck pains due to the way he holds himself. He tends to walk and sit with a straight back and his head down. When stood he will relax and hold his head slightly higher, but never when sitting. Beauty and LH are trying to get him to hold his head higher, to ease the pain. His movements don't flow, he makes abrupt turns and moves quickly. This is a result of him being tense. When he's alone, none of the above applies, however, he's nearly always in the presence of others. His speaking is hoarse and husky, whenever he does speak, he whispers.
Habits:He rubs his thumb up and down his fingers when his hand is in a fist shape, most commonly when he's holding something or is nervous. When he eats, he cuts everything into seven pieces, and chews ten times, no matter how small the piece of food may be.
Hobbies: Gyran loves to read dictionaries and old texts. He doesn't like people knowing this, and will usually hide his books when he's not reading them
Greatest flaws: His commitment issues, if that's what you could call them. He constantly feels vulnerable, and doubts everyone. Even when someone shows Guy kindness he rarely believes that it is genuine, he feels alone. He blames and always scolds himself for being so aloof.
Best qualities: His generosity, though he feels he doesn't have any good qualities to offer anyone.

Intellectual/Mental/Personality Attributes and Attitudes

Intelligence Level: IQ Rate 98, average
Any Mental Illnesses?: Social Anxiety Disorder
Character's short-term goals in life: Talk to someone
Character's long-term goals in life: Earn a true friend
How does Character see himself/herself? An unlikeable person
How does Character believe he/she is perceived by others? An unlikeable person
How self-confident is the character? Gyran has no self confidence. To be confident, he needs the support of others, but as you guessed, he's too scared to ask or confide in anyone.
Does the character seem ruled by emotion or logic or some combination thereof? Emotion
What would most embarrass this character? Loss of words or being used by someone. Even more so infront of a large group

Emotional Characteristics

Strengths: He can surpress his feelings and urges, therefore not letting anyone in on what gets to him, making him feel less vulnerable
Weaknesses: His social axiety disorder is his main weakness, making him think that he needs to live up to standards in order for people to like him. And, since he knows he cannot live up to those standards, he accepts that people won't like him.
Introvert or Extrovert? Introvert
With sadness? Sadness is a very common mood for Guy, he doesn't express it with much more than a blank face
With conflict? Walks or runs away
With change? Accepts it
With loss? Gyran is not very emotional. As said before, he can surpress even strong emotions. If he wanted to cry, he could do so alone.
What does the character want out of life? A true friend
What motivates this character? Very little
What frightens this character? Interacting with other people, mainly conversation.
Is the character judgmental of others? Quite, he makes assumptions as to what someone will act like based on their appearance, this is the reason he dislikes being around Leatherhead.
Is the character generous or stingy? Generous, he often gives things to people, for example, lets Pierre play with his toy or gives people presents. But once again, he runs after he's given it.
Is the character generally polite or rude? He is a polite boy but comes off as rude since he usually does not reply or simply turns and walks away. This is only because he is too scared to answer and too embarassed to stand there speechless. Also, if he is given/offered something, he will snatch and run away with it, not far, usually just around a corner; he always whispers a hoarse thank you after he's out of ear shot.

Blummin'ummer that took FOREVER. This is just the ground work, he needs to be worked on abit more. One of the most in depth characters I think I've made All my other chars are relatively happy and outgoing, so here's a change. And it's a BOY for once He's also more realistic looking than my other turtle chars.
ENJOY!

I was thinking about growing him up over a perioud of time maybe...he might just revive the connection between a little group of my OCs and the actual four turtles adn their master He lives with Beauty and LeatherHead so he'd see the TMNT quite alot.

If he were real, I'd be his Auntie Erika and I'd take him out for ice cream every week.

Thank you very much Suvi
He will, it'll take a while, though he'll probably never fully conquer it because of his Anxiety Disorder ):
