Name: Riley Hoffen
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Personality: Riley is an individual that has trouble speaking with others and tends to be on the stoic side. He doesn't show his emotions, even if he does happen to feel them. Honestly, the guy has a hard time understanding other people and their intentions, making him slightly naïve in that aspect. He's distrustful to all the other people that own the shards, knowing that they would probably attack him for his own two shards. Same goes for angels and demons, he's basically fighting for himself.
History/Bio: Riley first started to talk way after the allotted time babies should say their first words. His parents refused to listen to the doctor's orders about what he might be diagnosed with and just kept their strict regime with grades and such. He was a quiet kid during school, not making many friends and others would pick on him due to his reserved nature. It was a tough childhood, but he didn't know it could be better somewhere else so he just took it, thinking that other people went through what he went through.
Nothing much happened as he grew up, maintaining a B average in grades and successfully graduating high school. However, he fought with his parents about going to college, with them wanting him to at least be worth something and him wanting nothing to do with it. The minute he turned 18, he began relying on himself and only himself, moving to the next city or so to escape his parents. After that he took a job as a store clerk, learning a bit of social skills along the way.
One day, while talking with a customer, he noticed someone carrying a handkerchief which had something in it. The person was also wearing gloves, as if he didn't want to touch whatever he was holding. Honestly, Riley didn't think much of it until the man left, having dropped the contents on the ground. He abandoned his post and made his way towards the shards, eyes widening as he absorbed both of them. He felt…different. He couldn't understand why, but he did. The rest of the day went normally and he was heading home when he was attacked by angels. He didn't know what to do, so he ran, dodging them left and right. Funnily enough, an image of a map of the city popped into his head, so he used that to escape them rather successfully.
He closed the doors and tried to calm himself down, going to the living room couch to think. For some reason, he felt a tug, a calling. He wasn't sure why, but he felt like he…needed the objects that person dropped. He tried to ignore the feeling as the days went on, though after a few days he freaked out at someone yelling at their girlfriend and gave the guy a nasty shock. Literally. The person had to be taken to the hospital and he was brought in for questioning.
He honestly didn't know what was wrong with him, the events replaying vividly in his head over and over. He found himself in jail, waiting for his sentence. Strangely enough, the warden came to see him and he felt a tug the minute he locked eyes on him. The warden then gave him a proposition, he'd let him go and erase his criminal record if, and only if, he could obtain shards for the warden. If he refused, he'd make sure to get a life sentence in prison. He had no choice but to oblige, feeling very distrustful of the man's words.
Motivation: Get shards to hand over to the warden.
Skills: Photographic memory, able to lift heavy objects, electricity manipulation
Talents: One tracked mind, self-reliant
Non-Critical Skills and Talents: Experience as a store clerk
Number of Shards: 2
Abilities: Active-Electricity manipulation, can shoot out lightning bolts from his body and is protected from being electrocuted in that aspect. Can't summon thunderclouds or use the electricity found in everyday objects
Passive-Photographic memory
Corruption: He's more sensitive to light and sound and he finds himself liking enclosed, claustrophobic places even more. He's also becoming more distrustful of others, which may make him a shut in if he collects more.
Likes: dogs, being alone, people understanding him
Dislikes: Loud noises in general, yelling out of anger, being accused of something he didn't do, bugs
Pet Hate: Bullying, verbal abuse
Theme Song: Last of Me
