Character Name: Mike Wheeler Age: 14 Employment in Deerington: Delivery boy and assistant-assistant manager at Peter's Pizza; if you ever order a pizza, he'll be the one bringing it to you, day or night Residence in Deerington: 3253 Castle Rd. along with seven other teenagers and various pets; if you live nearby, you've likely heard their ruckus Day to Day Activities: Delivering pizza on his bike, walking a dog/Pokemon/demon horse, perusing at the comic shop, talking back to games at the arcade, waiting outside Dearly Diner for Will to get off work, buying nothing but junk food at the Hart Mart
About This Character: Mike is a dorky kid from mid-80's Indiana who got mixed up in a government conspiracy involving an eldritch nightmare dimension. He's the de facto leader of his gang of unsupervised middle schoolers, but he's not always an easy person to get along with. While he's clever, loyal, and brave to a near-deathly fault, he's also hot-headed and prone to fierce mood swings. He's got no respect or trust for adults, but warms up too other kids more easily, especially if he senses you need a friend. Any Warnings: His canon inherently involves mentions of violence, monsters, and possession, and he has specific trauma that involves being a witness to awful, gory deaths. Additionally, specific warnings related to his time in Deerington include depression/mental illness, drowning, possession, animal attacks, and hand/finger injury. The last three are especially salient right now so tread carefully if they're not your thing. If you want CR but don't want a specific thing brought up, please let me know!
Present Life: Right now, Mike's in recovery mode from everything that happened between August and October. He got possessed, he saw one of his best friends die, he had a zombie dog eat his fingers, et cetera. He's also very aware that there's still a monster in his head and that he needs to do something about it, but it's not at the forefront of his mind (in fact, it's currently trapped far in the back). Several people from home just showed back up, and he's also made the decision to do something about his shitty mental health, so that's where he is this month, laying low. I'm taking this time to try to expand his CR (he lost a lot over the summer/fall) and let him rest for a bit. Future Ideas: Eventually Mike is going to start trying to get un-possessed, so he'll ICly start trying to figure out how to do that, but I'm not super concerned with how long it takes. The monster might even resurface now and then, I haven't planned it out. But hey, if you know some shit about exorcisms, get in line.
CR You Want: All the other kids/teens to be friends with. Older role model/surrogate parent types. People who know about possession or mental health treatment. People to have petty arguments with. CR You Don't Want: Romance.
