Appearance:
(Did my best for the appearance, hope it's okay!)
Name: Adyll Dobromił
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Role: Ironguard
Occupation: Private Investigator (I.E. "Spook")
Origin: Poland
Residence: A small walk-up apartment in the east village, along 7th street.
Personality: Calm, somewhat even-headed, but stubborn. He won't get mad but if he decides he's going to do something, he will definitely try, and there's little to do to stop him.
Bio: Adyll was born to a Polish American family. His parents had fled Poland in 1923, a year after Adyll was born do to the formation of the Soviet Union and fearing that the Soviets would take Poland. They arrived in NYC by boat, and began to work in factories and mills around the area as they lived in a small squat in the Bronx. However shortly after arriving, when he was only 18 months old, little baby Adyll contracted the Iron Fever. Because he was a child, and his immune system was not yet fully developed, Adyll came incredibly close to dying of the illness. So much so that they moved to Brooklyn, into another squat that did not have as much iron around Adyll and further putting themselves into debt.
However, Adyll did eventually recover, and grew up like any other child. However do to their drastic moving around the city, the nature of their immigrant status AND the great depression going on at this time, his family remains in complete poverty to this day. Both of his parents do not speak English proficiently, and frequently Adyll had to go with them on various trips to translate for them. At 18 however his parents no longer had the resources to support him, and they didn't have the money for college, so he moved out.
Lacking social support or any real connections to find him a job, he figured he could use his status as a Iron Fever survivor as a way to join the Ironguard. Thankfully these days, the Ironguard happens to be attempting to recruit widely, and he was quickly accepted as one of their own. Due to Adyll's age he was able to essentially be used as a "moderator" within the Iron Guard group. He was young enough, and new enough, that most of the newer "ruffian" Iron Guard embraced him. At the same time, the personality he eventually adopted was appealing to the more older veterans of the Ironguard and his similar strict adherence to the treaty.
Regardless, the Ironguards was basically his way of launching himself into the status of Private Investigator. Currently, he's well known as a P.I. specializing in the Scire community and Heavy/Glamour investigations and crimes.
3 trivia facts about your character:
- Adyll also has past involvements with the Communist party in New York City. Apparently, when he was younger, he was a lot more hot-headed and not the man he is now. He resented the wealthy deeply as a young adult, blaming run-away capitalism for his family's poverty and discontent. He regularly participated in "political action" including riots and vandalism. These days, however, he has since done his best to leave that part of his life behind him and burned as many of those bridges as he could... Though, some connection still remains.
- Adyll's parents are still alive, and still live in Brooklyn. Though they do not speak English and still do not live in the best of circumstances. Adyll visits them often, and knows they tried their best to give him the life he deserved, and does his best in turn to live up to that every day.
- Adyll carries a small pistol. What kind of P.I. would he be without a little revolver?
