Character Name: Reilly
Nick Names: None
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Occupation: Newsie
Physical Description (pictures don't cut it, EXPLAIN how they look): Shaggy brown hair, blue eyes, 5'7" VERY athletic.
Picture of character:
Personality: He's sweet, very protective of his friends, romantic when it comes to girlfriends. He doesn't break promises, once he says he'll do something, he'll do it...if he can. He's pretty quiet and reserved most of the time.
History: (note, anything in parentheses is in the 1980's part ONLY) Reilly never knew his parents. They died in a fire when he was only a baby and he was sent straight to the Brooklyn lodging house (although, in the new thing we're doing, he'll be living with his single uncle) Reilly was pretty quiet for a long time after that. He lived a normal, somewhat happy life after that, meeting the girl of his dreams. Her name was Voilet. She was the one, he could tell. He loved her alot and was even thinking about proposing to her, he bought the ring and everything...Nothing could come between them, they were perfectly happy. Then one night...Spades and Aces came running into the lodging house, telling Reilly that there was a bad fight going on between a couple of her friends. Turns out it was a knife fight and she got cut up really bad trying to break it up....she died in his arms that night. He felt so helpless, like there was something he could've....should've done, but she wouldn't have lasted long enough for him to get a doctor. After that, he basically went into a huge depression and shut down inside. (He got into some bad drugs, trying to get rid of the pain.) Spot finally made him get a grip and talked him out of the depression, (but he never knew about the drugs...no one did) His life pretty much went back to normal once he was able to get over Violet, but he hasn't loved another girl since then. (Once Reilly was able to get over Violet, he tried to get off of the drugs, but he hasn't had much success. He is afraid to talk to anyone about it).
