| Introduction
|
|
xxxxxBoyish and bright-smiled and winged, but the sharp-clawed bat-wings and wickedly fanged smile put few people in mind of an angel. Dusk tends to live his life with a fierce passion. It's -- hit or miss how much that passion is tempered with any kind of good judgment to guide it, though.

| Description
|
|
xxxxxDusk is a skinnynerd conglomeration of sharp angles and gangly limbs. His lanky-lean build conspires to make his 5'10" look taller than it actually is, longboned limbs and sinewy muscle. His usual pallor is only accentuated by the darkness that surrounds it, a mop of messily curling waves framing his angular face; his jaw is often shadowed too by a dark scruff of beard. His eyes are large, dark as well and given to a reflective shine in low lights. Behind his thin lips, wickedly sharp elongated canines are prominently noticeable, longer in the upper set but no less sharp below. Most notable of all are his wings, enormous and wide and dark as well, ribbed with long fingerbones and tipped with talons at their points; they call to mind a bat in their membranous fuzzy-soft flexibility.

| Reputation

|
xxxxxKnown among the Brotherhood and Prometheans to be a giant nerd, extremely extroverted and extremely friendly with a tendency to just kind of take any stray under his literal and metaphorical wing and share all the cuddles with them.

| Skills
|
|
xxxxxDusk's skillbase is largely nerd-oriented. He will throw down in most combat-oriented video games, has large amounts of minutiae of various roleplay systems practically memorized (though he likes Shadowrun the best) and a fantastically impressive M:tG collection. He's excellent with computers; a freelance webdev by profession and with a keen interest in security by hobby.
xxxxxHe's pretty good on a skateboard and can fix his own bike, though homelessness --> Prometheus --> NYC (and a set of wings that can shuttle him around pretty quick) means he's never actually learned to drive. He's fluent in ASL and Spanish and passingly familiar with Thai and Vietnamese. He's also fantastic with a sewing machine; nearly a decade of having to tailor his own clothes to allow for giant wings meant this started out as simply a necessary skill to learn but has evolved into an enjoyable hobby.
xxxxxTime spent in Prometheus (and later on the Prometheus raid team and in the Brotherhood) has left him very practiced in combat. Living with (and training with) a pair of telepaths means he has many years of practice guarding his mind from psi-folk, though he has no greater than usual resistance to psionic manipulation or probing from anything more than passing scans.

| Trivia
|

- Was the only hearing member of his immediate family; both parents and both his younger and older siblings are all Deaf. ASL is his native language; he didn't actually even learn to speak (orally) until after starting elementary school.
- Is a very active Ingress agent on the side of the Resistance. (Agent name: DarkwingDusk)
- Is Puerto Rican on his mother's side of the family and has a huge amount of extended family in the Nuyorican community in the area, though he's on complicated terms with many of them on account of Vampire.

| RP Hooks
|
| Nerd is the Word - Avid gamer, avid programmer. Deeply enmeshed with all things geek; if you are down for board games, video games, probably so is he.
|
| Bloody-minded - Doesn't glitter in the sun but probably wants to bite you.
|
| Uncaged - Very involved in Promethean liberation efforts since getting freed himself a decade+ ago. In addition to helping with intel gathering and planning, he keeps in touch with pretty much every freed labrat who wants to be in touch; he's built up extensive ties to liberated Prometheans all around the country. If you have come out of the labs, he probably wants to make sure you're finding your feet okay.
|
| Fraternal - Though he's usually behind the keyboard rather than on the front lines of missions, he'll fight tooth and claw for any of his Brothers if he has to.
|
| Throw Down - Frequently found at the Fight Club warehouse on fight nights, and probably keen to go toe to toe with anyone who can take some hard blows.
