And all they could say was, 'Look at that man go...'

Here he is, Mr. Collin Awesome McConaughey himself. And his companion Zaru!

Enjoy, eh?

Collin Awesome McConaughey

Age:
21

Hometown:
Verdanturf Town, Hoenn

Occupation:
Adventurer

Description:
Posted Image

~ Hair Color:
Light Brown
~ Eye Color:
Light brown
~ Physical Description:
Ataglance- Collin is around 6'1 and 186, stands straight and tall, and is probably running when you see him. He has a rough look about him, but it translates to a positive, charming energy.
~ Attire:
Generally light, breathing fabrics. Either jeans or sweatpants, and usually a black tee-shirt with black, fingerless gloves. His shoes are running shoes, the awesome kind, black with a red stripe.
~ Items:
A music player that is held in a compartment in his shoe, with headphones that wire up under his clothes all the way to his ears. He also carries a backpack with him at all times, which has his belongings. You know, the usual living stuff.

Personality:
Collin is very engergetic. With a rather fit body thanks to the amount of adventuring he does and a naturally unnatural amount of energy, Collin can run and run and run forever. To the modern day, one might call Collin a Freerunner*, something he is extremely good at. Using the world as a playground, Collin has become...playful. One might think that he still sometimes forgets that he is no longer a child.

Other than being playful, he is a rather nice person. Rather wanting to do the right thing, or helping somebody else before he helps himself, Collin is selfless. He loves pokemon, and while not a trainer, has one of his own.

As for romance...Collin never really stops to focus on it too much. Still being only 21, it seems he hasn't quite felt the slap of the realisation that he will need a female companion one day.

Horribly optimistic, one could say almost anything to Collin, and an awesome, charming smile would remain. He is basically one of those guys that you can throw any insult at without them getting offended.

Biography/History:
Born to Joseph and Mary McConaughey, Collin was an only child. Born and raised in Verdanturf, Hoenn, Collin picked up his accent** from his parents. Just as well, there wasn't much to do inside, so Collin was left to his own devices outside, playing with the other children in games like Tag or Hide-and-seek.

Collin was always the fastest kid in town.

The first time he ever got into a fight was not with pokemon, and it got him in a lot of trouble. He was 16 at the time, and he had decked some kid who had started talking bad about his mom. Turned out he was a good fighter too.

Him and his mother had always had a good relationship. He and his father sometimes had some good memories, but that was always a 50/50 chance.

Finally, when he turned 18, Collin left. Collin left to do whatever it was that he wanted to do. At the time, it was unclear, but as he started walking to further and further towns, beginning to explore, he realised that this was what he wanted to do.

Over the past three years, Collin has self-trained himself in Freerunning, found and captured his own pokemon, traveled several continents and has had his fill of the world's cultures.

It is now that he has found the Cryto region, and is here to add another continent to his belt with a smile.

Sample RP:

A crisp swishing sound repeated with a one-two rhythm in his ears, second only to the sound of his footsteps as he ran forward. His breathing was steady, his heart rate up, his Chimchar ran beside him, keeping pace. They danced like fire among the rooftops, gracefully, determined to get to an unseen finish line. There's a jump, five feet? Ten feet? Doesn't matter. A crisp landing that scattered dust and slowed momentum slightly.

Collin looked back at the chimp in his peripherals and smirked before increasing his speed. He calls back as his legs piston faster,

"Keep up, Zaru."

<You keep up!> He retorted back playfully, passing his owner.

They started to battle in speed. Each one pushed the other to their limit, they ran as fast as they could. They slid under obstacles, hurdled others, jumped gaps others deemed impossible, and finally, they saw it. It was the end of the line of rooftops, their finish line. They looked at each other simultaneously and then focused back. They ran with all-out determination towards their goal. Collin pulled ahead, then Zaru, then Collin. It was close, their footsteps fell like rain, quick and light, passing in an instant. The finish line. Collin slammed his foot into the half-wall to stop his momentum, Zaru stopping into it shoulder-first. It was a tie, but they always knew how to settle a tie.

"Water?" Collin asked him, grabbing a bottle from his pack and taking a swig before asking, indicating the bottle with his hand. Zaru only nodded his reply, out of breath. As Zaru took his own swig, finishing the bottle with eyes closed, he looked back to see Collin had disappeared. He heard footsteps, and immediately chastised himself mentally for letting his owner get the best of him like that. But he smirked as he heard the next words,

"Race ya home for bragging rights!"
