DJ Mcloud

[DJ Mcloud]

Name: DJ Mcloud
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Appearance:

(In sig and avatar)
Basically pretty wirey but fairly strong in the legs. He wears blue contacts to replace the glasses he had when he was little. Mostly well-dressed when not in uniform but has casual-wear as well. Hair is kept short and tidy to avoid it getting in his face and causing uneccesary clumsiness.

Personality:

Shy and sweet with a hint of clumsy bad luck. The kind of guy that is plucky enough to not care when the world uses him as a toilet and still desires to help. He has a wisdom and maturity beyond his age at times but still ends up blushing his head off or getting easily angered if something provokes him to either. He tends to get obsessive and gushy about things he likes but this can make him into a loving, sensitive and devoted friend (who still has the luck of a person who stepped on a crack under a ladder because they got pounced by a black cat, causing them to spill their five pound jar of salt). He can be pushed around easily and taken advantage of but he is smarter than he looks and has his limits. He becomes somewhat sad and serious when discussing his past to the point of obsession, his perky demeanor melts away and he becomes extremely volatile emotionally. Overall though he is a pleasant, if not overly so, person to be around.

History:

DJ was born in the United States to one English parent and one Japanese (though he doesn't know a lick about Japan so don't ask him!). He grew up on the Eastern coast of the U.S. and made friends like anybody else would. His friends organized a club when he was young that was designed to "combat the evil of monotony and conformity by retaining the innocence of youth" in reality it was a place for them to hang out and play games. Throughout these games DJ felt the agony of defeat many times because of his lack of coordination and terrible luck. His luck didn't seem much better when his friends brought out a bunch of stacks of cards to play with.

However, using an old deck of rejects he managed to hold his own with his new friends, who were more experienced players, (he still lost that first time though). He eventually built his own deck and through cunning and intellegence became the best Duel Monsters player among his club. As his skill grew his luck worsened however as trouble befell all his relationships.

His first romantic relationship ended in disaster due to a conflict of personalities and ended on dangerous terms that he still won't talk about to the present day. One of his clubmates was attacked seemingly randomly and murdered, the case remains unresolved and growing colder. Despite this DJ did not let his unhappiness show and vowed to better himself so that the unhappiness of those around him (which he felt he had somehow caused) could be lessened by his protection. To this end he entered Duel Academy, hoping to put his past darkness behind him and move forward into a bright future.

He attempted to move on from the death of his friend, however he is not fully over it and part of him blames himself as he was the last person she saw. This guilt leads him to hunting clues on the murder in his spare time, sometimes getting obsessive and Homesian in nature. However the trail has seemingly gone cold and he's run into a dead end, leaving him with unresolved feelings about the case and makes somewhat of a hobby of criminal justice. This also leads him to jump on any leads he finds. However part of him really does want to move on from the event, though another part can never forget. These dual ideas continually battle in him as he heads off for the academy, carrying his past with him as he walks into a brand new day.
