Shieldmaster of the HGO

22

Male

He/him

5'6"

133 lbs.

Unique patterns, warm colors, anything eye-catching

Frank is on the shorter end of the family and looks younger than he is, with bright hazel eyes and a soft-edged jaw. In an attempt to come across a little tougher, he dyes his hair orange and frequently change its style. He's come to favor thick spikes that fall in layers behind him, reaching chin length and somewhat mimicking a lion's mane. He might be able to pull off a punk vibe, if it weren't for the shy, nervous demeanor often reflected in his shaky smile.

Kids, love, abstract art

Puns, being ignored, not having magic, people putting down Robert

Being forgotten, heights, women (except Sarah)

Art history, antiques, watercolor, gambling, acoustic guitar

Heterosexual

As one of the group's shyest members, Frank was always the odd one out in the Hallowed Gladiator Organization. He's slow to anger, quick to defend others, and always seeking validation. He'll do anything to get people to notice him, whether it's styling his hair strangely or using an odd catch phrase. At a younger age, he dreamed about other people bowing down to him, and even today, a gesture of immense respect like that will overjoy him.

Spiked kite shield

Though Frank's offense is lacking, he has a competent stance that lets him use his shield's defensive capability to its fullest extent. He can be held back by nerves in a one-on-one fight, but he complements more directly offensive fighters well.

"I try to see the good in others before the bad. If someone really is bad news, I trust Robert to point it out to me."

"I love kids, they're always so much fun. Sometimes they say the goofiest things, and it always makes me smile."

"Oh, um... That's kind of a weird question. I don't really know how to answer that? I guess... Robert's told me he admires my patience and my artistic skills, but his point of reference is a little skewed. I hope people admire me for my style? I put a lot of effort into it, so..."

"I think a lot of people assume I'm no good at anything. I don't know if it's because I'm shy, or something else about me, but a lot of people get worried when I try something hard or risky. I'm actually pretty good about a lot of things... and I really hate when people underestimate me."

"Oh, all the time... I really like changing my hairstyle so much it gets people to do a double-take. One time I shaved my whole head bald. It took a really long time to grow back, especially to how long I have it now, but I didn't regret it at all, it was a great experience."

"Let's see... 'I try hard so please pay attention to me!' "

"Any time someone dismisses Robert offhand. It's... the only thing that can really make me angry. I don't like it, and I always feel terrible afterwards, but I've yelled at people before over it..."
