gOOD ENOUGH
I bumped his age up (by four years woah) because of some cool new events that happened, but he’s basically the same besides that. :> On his markings pose, everything's little thicker than it should be. Carbon’s supposed to be underweight, so he should be pretty damn skinny. it is old art but I needed to get sOMETHING UP
I basically rewrote everything to make it more compact, informative, and simply better. It is complete
Oh, and I threw names on his parents only because it would be easier, especially considering how they’re both guys… I’m not going to make either a reference sheet, I just needed something better than Father #1 and Father #2 :’D sry
Also! I am open to RP Carbon anytime you want! If you want to RP with me, send me a message and I will happily oblige! (Only MTTverse for my MTTverse character(s). Sorry…!) And they don’t always have to be… friendly interactions. If you have a mean character, or a threatening character, and you want to pummel, chase, yell at, threaten, whatever Carbon, I am open to it. 8D
...No but I would actually love to have an RP like that
________________________________________________
Name: Carbon Reinsur [rain-sir]
Nicknames: ...Not really. He doesn’t really like nicknames. Carbon’s good.
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Species: Yol
Occupation: Professional race car driver
Height/Weight: 5'4" / 117 lbs // Carbon is short and a little underweight
Body Type: Thin and pronounced - his bones seem to jut out a little, especially around his neck, chest, and hips. Looks underweight because he is
Family:
Father [deceased]: Wrench Reinsur
Carbon was always closer to Wrench, and they spent a lot of time together. Wrench was the one that taught Carbon basic mechanic skills, and he always looked out for his son. Carbon still feels a large amount of guilt over his death.
Father: Hitchhike Benadium (Reinsur)
Hitchhike was a kind father, usually busy with work, but loving all the same. Carbon still cares about him, but the accident drove them apart. They haven’t seen or talked to each other since Carbon moved out, which was right after high school.
Friends:
Dave
Dave is Carbon’s closest friend, especially considering how Carbon doesn’t really have many other friends. Because of this (or maybe this is why he has few friends?), Carbon can be clingy and overprotective, and occasionally invades Dave’s privacy (to an embarrassing degree). However, Carbon only wants the best for his bud, and will do anything and everything in his power to make him smile.
Victoria Isabella
Victoria is an acquaintance of Carbon’s that he knows a little about. He’s not entirely sure what their relationship should be like, as her shop does sponsor him, so for now, he calls her his ‘friend’ with a question mark and squiggly, confused hand gestures. He doesn’t know how to handle the situation without seeming to use favoritism or romantic interest. He’s very confused.
Likes: Racing / Heights / Piggy-back rides, or riding on someone’s shoulders / Dave’s couch / Being a blanket ball / Iced drinks, tea, mocha / Sleeping / Nice dreams
Dislikes: Bullying / Threats / Cheating / Suspicious or unfriendly strangers
Talents/Skills: Racing!! basically car skills / He has this weird knack for survival / Running / Dodging / Basic mechanic skills (very basic, but they’re there) / Smiling / Making others smile / Organization
Fears: He’s claustrophobic if he can’t see the sky and is not in motion (i.e. he can race through a tunnel or underground and be fine, but if his car broke down in a tunnel or he got stuck in a box he would not be fine) / He’s scared he’ll hurt someone again / He’s very uncomfortable if he’s followed or confronted by someone(s) (or feels like that’s what’s going on. he’s a little bit paranoid)
Weaknesses: Someone going out of their way to help him (or someone else) / Sometimes awkward in conversation / Frail body type / Comfortable blankets / Nice cars
Flaws: His misplaced bravery sometimes does more harm than it does help / Weak fighter / He’s terrible at reacting to fears / He can’t handle stressful situations unless it’s on the race track (he has a different mindset out there) / He’s very hard on himself, and blames himself for a lot of mistakes
Nervous Habits: Tail twisting or curling / Shifting feet / Fidgeting with necktie / Short (and usually awkward/uncomfortable) bouts of laughter
S. O.: Bisexual
Tongue Flavor: Cream cheese frosting
Relationship Status: Single pringle, but he’s not really looking.
Personality: Carbon is a fun-loving yol who loves to laugh and joke and smiles easily. He’s a happy and upbeat character, but can be a little emotional at times. He’s not very good at fighting, though he’ll start one if he thinks it’s deserved. Because of this, if he gets involved in a fight, he relies on dodging. It’s hurt him more than once. Besides his misplaced bravery, he’s a polite and bubbly character who is expressive and friendly. He can be impulsive, and is prone to mild irritation and bouts of uneasiness. He also gets nervous when presented with unwelcoming conversation or attitude. But he will speak his mind if the situation calls for it, and is overall a positive person to be around.
History:
Full, detailed history!
Carbon was largely bullied all throughout school, and it had a heavy impact on him. His father Wrench introduced the show Speed Racer to Carbon as an attempt to cheer him up, and he latched on to it as though it was the only reliable thing in his life. Because of his interest in the show, his parents tested the waters with driving, and when he excelled, they introduced him to racing.
He eventually started competing in local competitions and gained first place every time, causing him to develop a cocky attitude. He took his fathers out on a track far beyond his skill level to display his talent and crashed, killing Wrench, permanently disabling Hitchhike, and nearly losing his leg as well. Carbon didn’t get back into the sport until two years later, in his junior year. He learned he had missed the sport and threw himself back into it after he graduated high school, becoming the youngest driver* to race professionally.
Career Details**: Racing could be considered fairly popular. In this newer world, racing has developed to much more interesting levels-- now, instead of just spinning around a track 100 or so times, racers drive on much more exotic tracks, through difficult challenges, and have more sparring type abilities to combat other drivers, though the main focus is still racing. Each car is outfitted with countless safety precautions in the case of a crash or hard collision, and there are always medical crews nearby, though serious accidents can still happen. Because of the interesting upgrades to the sport, racing has become slightly more popular than before, appealing to more audiences with its action, drama, and danger type additions.
Fun facts and, as an added bonus, an old drawing! Fantastic!
*Carbon is the youngest/one of the youngest driver/s to ever compete professionally in the new world of racing. The new type of racing is rather different from the old and traditional type of racing. Even so, he’s pretty young for this kind of thing.
**This is my own idea of racing in the MTT world which I made up, based the idea of the technological advances that the MTTs were said to bring. If it is considered wrong in any way, I will be willing to change it or bring it down completely, but I liked the idea so I decided to put it up there. :>
