Major Dean Archer: "The Sure Shot Alchemist"

[Dean Archer]

Dean Ulysses Archer

Witty and quick, his mouth tends to get him into all kinds of trouble. Dean is a self-made loner, cutting himself off from most people by plain instinct. Ever since his first foster home, Dean has had trust issues. It takes a lot for him to let someone into his life, and being certified as a "Walking Weapon" of the state didn't help matters. Despite his solo mindset though, he does feel the need to help people, especially women. He is extremely chivalrous, almost to the point of chauvinism. He tends to get in over his head when a girl gets in trouble. Dean is a smart-ass to a great many people. He never really knows when to tun it off, and it always comes back to bite him in the ass. Not that he can't handle trouble when it comes around.

To say that Dean is quiet is an understatement though. He generally keeps to himself despite his mouth, only piping up when he feels the need to or when he's spoken to. He travels alone, a choice he doesn't think about too often. He keeps himself busy when he isn't working, keeping his body in shape and tinkering away at his rusty, ramshackle motorcycle and his automail forearm. He has dabbled in a little of everything martial arts-wise, but he has a knack for Akido. Dean never went to collage, but he still has a healthy thirst for knowledge and he has the attitude that if there is something he needs to know and doesn't know it, he will find it out.

Dean, at heart, is a gentleman. He hates it when anybody gets hurt or is in trouble, but when it's a woman, watch out. His chivalry makes him vulnerable to be manipulated by the opposite sex. Which is to say that he can be a little blindsided by a pretty face, but hey, he's only human.

Lover:

I mean...Dean's not against it as a rule, but he sees it as a very unlikely possibility. Not to mention that he has some pretty extreme trust issues. But, but, BUT. If you think you can handle his wise-ass-ness, his broody loner bull-shit, He would actually be a pretty good significant other. He's like one of his comics: at first he might be a little bit of a gamble, but if you put in the time, he turns out to be one hell of an investment (;.

Friends:

•

Friendship is built on trust, which Dean is lacking in. Much like the Lover, you would need to put in the time and effort. Other than that, the quickest way is to meet him while he's in a bind (which happens almost constantly), because then he wont have a choice xD. At his core, he's a soldier and the best way to earn his trust-and respect- is to fight along side him.

Enemies:
•

Heh.

Yeah, about that.

Dean is a colosall pain in the ass, and that's just to his superiours. He is a certified alchemist of the state, and a pretty darn good one at that. He is bound to have made an enemy or two (or five) along his carrer, both civilian and military.

So. Yeah. Bukus of enemies. Bring on the violence!

Any other ideas?

Okay, somehow, this is REALLY stretched and I can't figure out why.
Edit: OKAY WAIT I'VE GOT IT.
You used too many blockquotes. I didn't touch your post, but I messed with the quoted text a bit.
Take out two of the blockquotes at the very top and very bottom, and it will look exactly the same, spacing-wise, but not so stretched.

I... don't know how much he'd interact with my characters. Rebecca and Anneliese are both military, but they're at Eastern and Central respectively.

[Dean Archer]

I kinda made it that way intentionally...

[Rebecca Catalina]

You made it stretched intentionally or aligned? Because the alignment will look exactly the same; it just won't stretch out the board.

[Dean Archer]

There we go. The Image was larger than I though it was, that's what as stretching things. Sorry about that, the proboards app doesn't show the board as is. Fixed now though! ^_^

[Rebecca Catalina]

That's fine; the skin makes the thread area a lot smaller than the standard proboards layout.

Since Selena and Dean are both alchemists at Biggs the would probably have some sort of relationship, but im not certain how the would get along.
