Passionate / Dedicated / Resourceful / Physical / Devious / Tactless

Ezra is a very passionate man to the three most important things in his life: his career, his family / friends, and dungeon exploring. It is very rare for him to go on a vacation or waste his time doing 'mindless things', especially since his work is his passion already. Noted, he is also very dedicated to his work and will not cut corners in order to do a good job. However, it may or may not be a good thing once he's invested in a project; he has a horrible habit of staying up for days (or only napping an hour in between) in order to complete a project, especially if he's crafting for someone he cares for. At the very least, Ezra is very resourceful (some claim he's just frugal) with his material and will never try to waste it. But this is not to be confused with being cheap; he uses only the best materials he can source and uses them smartly for the things he needs to make. Thus, he's very good at planning and following-through with them. When he's not in his work space, one can find Ezra walking through the streets running errands and catching up with everyone. He's rather friendly and can get physical with hugs and a hearty pat on the back; he's quite touchy-feely and affectionate in that way, even with strangers. However, he is also quite devious and will say things that may annoy people, but in a "nice" way as he's grinning and all. On the other hand, sometimes he doesn't mean to be so tactless with his words (as he doesn't purposely try to anger people, but just to poke fun), but his over-friendly nature may be the reason for his inhibitions.

Likes & Dislikes:

♥ Building / fixing things (DIY projects), beaches, running errands
✖ Storms, insects that buzz, getting his tail caught at the door

►     H I S T O R Y

Ezra was born and raised in Ioxus, the city of war and power, and grew up with a lot of its principles of fighting and honor in battle. He was a rather rowdy and active kid who dreamed of becoming a powerful warrior and desired to conquer a dungeon. Though he wasn't naughty per se, his tactless behavior landed him with a lot of ill-intended fights which got him battered and bruised despite training with his father. Thus, he didn't have a great relationship with his dad as training was often harsh and rigorous, something he didn't understand as a child. By the time he was a young teen though, he slowly did his father proud as a better fighter. However, he still spent a lot of his time with his tender and loving crafting mother who was always working hard with the things she made. He was fascinated with how she created beautiful weapons and items from raw materials and took it upon himself to also include his mother's work in his life and not solely focus on training as his father would've liked. But as the parents got along well, they negotiated his lessons between training and crafting. 

However, the happy family would lose it's spark as Ezra's mother passed away on an overseas trip seeking new materials for crafting. Over the years, his father fell into depression as Ezra lost the affection he craved for from a parent. The two remaining Dusk members simply tolerated each other's presence as a cold relationship became more apparent, especially when he had tried to continue his mother's traditions of crafting only to realize his father would lock himself in his room to get away from those memories. But once Ezra was 16, he decided it was best for him to move out into the City of Opportunity to look for what the city is named after, and for something to respark his spirit. He decided to honor his mother's life by becoming an apprentice crafter and had packed away all of his and his mother's tools and seek apprenticeship in the new city. Slowly, he was feeling more like himself once more with the positive people in the area he lived and began to craft as a career by the time he was 20.

Since then, his relationship with his father became better as the distance from each other did them well. They occasionally send each other letters and gifts and visit each other when their time permits. Being content with his current lifestyle led him to remember the nostalgia and desire to fulfill his childhood dream of wanting to enter a dungeon. Thinking about it for some time, he decided he needed a new chapter in his life. Thus, he found a familia that would accept him and had recently started training for it. He still uses the fighting skills he obtained growing up, and is figuring out which weapon would suit him best as a supporter in a party. For now, he's only wearing defensive armor and has no offensive weapons aside his fighting knowledge. Noted, he no longer desires to become the strongest warrior as his childhood dreams entailed, but much rather enter a party as a supporting member so he can give advice to what weaponry and armor would work best for his team as he analyzes their fighting style. He much prefers looting, looking for uncommon materials and giving advice versus entering combat.

►     A D D I T I O N A L  I N F O

• Whether it was the way he was raised or the 'animal' in him, he really likes physical attention like a pat on the head or a hug.
• Isn't actually as dark as he looks; it's mostly a tan. If you see him without his tank top, you'd see a very obvious tan line.
• Brave when it comes to sharp tools, fire, and all things relating to crafting, but he is horribly afraid of storms. One can find him hiding under his sheets if there is a really bad storm.
• Carries a black and gray backpack to store all the goods. Allll. The goods. 
• Knows hand-to-hand combat; can defend himself pretty well and puts up a good offense if necessary as an average animal person. Of course, he lacks to those who are blessed warrior class.

• (Semi) Literate > Script: I tend to write 2~3+ paragraphs as a starter, but I don't expect the same if you're not comfortable with it; I eventually reply to as much as I get from you. I can script anytime, usually for shorter RPs though.
• GoogleDocs = Forum = Skype > Notes > Comment: I am good with most things actually, and I like them for different reasons. Mostly for archiving. But I tend to only like comment RPs for short, slap-stick kinda things. 

✔ Mutual headcannoning is preferred,
✔ throwing art at people when I have time,
✔ and getting to know people between RPing! MOST DEF THIS PART. ♥
