So I discovered this awesome looking group here. I have seen some awesome characters for this group, so I wanted to make a character of my own. However I have a fear that his story is too long/too overdramatic. I may have rushed some parts a little because I wanted to get this in on time. So some of these things like, personality, back story (as long as it is already) and misc may be expanded upon later. Everything that I want for the character is there, but it's the bare bone basics. Also if I got the math wrong with his age please let me know. Sorry, one last thing, my writing skills are not the best so please don't be too harsh on that.

Ability: Can breathe fire. You know, like a dragon! Only more showy and nowhere near as deadly as a dragon.

Story:

Life:

  Ben was born to a gypsy woman who was part of a travelling group of Roma gypsies. When he was young he would often play with his friends, his best friend being Tonto (Heads up, I'm terrible with making up names). Tonto had an older sister named Sally, who loved to dance. Ben started to have a crush on her, much to the annoyance of Tonto. He really wanted to impress Sally and one day overheard her say "The only thing I'll ever love is dancing". Now Ben, not being the brightest light in the room, took this to mean that he needed to dance in order to win her heart. He tried to practice every day even when the other kids made fun of him. After a while even Tonto would poke fun at him. Eventually, Sally found out and decided to see Ben's dance for herself. Ben's dance was... less than impressive. On the verge of tears, Ben prepared himself for Sally to make fun of him. Instead he felt her hand placed gently on his head as she offered to teach him to dance. He jumped on the chance to spend time with his crush and agreed to be taught to dance. As Ben grew older, his crush on Sally faded away. However, his new love for dance remained.

  On the evening of Ben's eighteenth birthday he sat beside his mother on her deathbed as she told him about his father. Ben had never known who his father was up until his mother told him that night. He was the bastard child of some lesser lord, Kolbe Rosin. She was seen as a "primitive savage" with her child being "inconvenient" to the Rosin bloodline. With her dying breath she told Ben how to find his father before the yellow fever took her life.
Ben sat there for a while, crying over his mother's death and unsure of what to do next. He knew that his mother was implying that she wanted him to meet his father... but did he? Did he really want to go out of his way to meet a man he didn't know, who would just see him as "inconvenient"? Ben decided in the end that he loved his mother more and would do his best to fulfil her dying wish.

  After a couple weeks of travelling, Ben managed to find his father's house. Ben knocked on the door and waited. A tall, slim man finally opened the door. Ben introduced himself and asked to see Kolbe Rosin before noticing that the man was staring at him like he had seen a ghost. Ben gave the man a small smile and wave to try and snap the man out of his daze. It seemed to do the trick as the man said that he was Kolbe Rosin. Kolbe then invited Ben to stay for dinner. Ben agreed and was introduced to Kolbe's wife, Isabelle.

  Ben told them over the meal about why he was there. Kolbe gave him a blank, apathetic stare while Isabelle was shocked and disgusted with what she was hearing. The silence that fell after the news hit was a long one. He felt awkward and annoyed by the way Isabelle was looking at him, judging him. Kolbe broke the silence when he asked Ben if he needed a place to rest. Ben reluctantly said yes as he didn't want to spend more time with Isabelle than was necessary but also had no place to stay.

Death:

  He stayed with them for a day which grew into a few days, which then grew into weeks. One night he overheard Isabelle talking with Kolbe asking how much longer they were planning on keeping that "thing" in the house. Ben was hurt and offended by this. He went up to his room to vent his anger, but instead ended up crying. He missed his friends, the other gypsies, he missed being out in the open, but more than any of that he missed his mother. Ben wasn't even sure why he was still there anymore. He was still no closer to knowing his father any better than when they had first met, and he could feel the disdain Isabelle had for him growing every day. He wanted to leave... in fact, he was going to leave. He had kept his mother's dying wish, hadn't he? He met his father and now he could go.

  Packing what little he owned he made his way to the front door. Just as Ben was about to leave Kolbe stopped him. Kolbe asked why he was leaving. Ben lashed out at his father claiming that they didn't want the "thing" in their house so he was leaving. Kolbe went quiet for a moment. He finally opened up to Ben saying that he had loved Ben's mother, but his parents didn't approve of them being together. Once she was pregnant with Ben his parents threatened to kill her and her unborn child. Kolbe helped Ben's mother escape but never saw her again. At this point Kolbe broke down confessing that he still loved Ben's mother and that he had wanted to be part of Ben's life if Ben would have him. Ben really wasn't sure how to take all in.

  However, seeing Kolbe crying right in front of him Ben thought that the least he could do was comfort him. He gave his father a hug. Koble seemed to be a bit surprised by this, but accepted Ben's hug with giving one back. He then told Ben that no matter what choice he made, his doors would always be open for Ben.

  Ben decided that he would leave in the morning. He was glad to know that his father loved him and would be there for him but he wanted to be where he belonged: with the gypsies. He went to bed content, things were finally looking up! But a strange female figure entered his room that night and well, let's just say it's too bad that Ben had a hard time breathing with a pillow covering his face.

Meeting the Ringmaster:

  Ben, oh Ben. He was not a happy camper to find out that he was dead. And just when things were getting better too. However he didn't notice right away that he was dead and well... may have tried to attack the Ringmaster, thinking it was Isabelle. Once Ben realised that this creature wasn't Isabelle he's flight instinct kicked in and he started to run away before the Ringmaster stopped him. The Ringmaster was so calm and offered him a second chance at life. The Ringmaster wasn't even done speaking before Ben accepted his offer. Like hell if Ben was going to have his life permanently ended like that.

Likes/Dislikes:

+ Being warm
+ Cooking
+ Dancing
+ Fine Fabrics
+ Napping

- Being judge
- Being cold
- Bad tasting food
- Super loud/crowded places
- Becoming dirty

Misc:
⦁ Ben looks much more like his mother than his father with the exception of his eyes. Those are his father’s eyes.
⦁ He has never learned to read or write.
⦁ Ben can speak English and German. (I myself, however, cannot speak German, so any German you get is going to be botched, I'm sorry.)
⦁ Is surprisingly a good cook.
⦁ He can become rather annoying when it come to hygiene as that is important to him.
⦁ He can sing! Nothing amazing but nothing too hard on the ears either.

I don't have a preferred method of RPing because believe it or not, I have never truly RPed with anyone before.
