OOC: CONTACT/CONCRIT POST

I've been RPing England for several years now, but I'm always open to constructive criticism, questions, inquiries, or even just a general hello. Feel free to plop one right here into this handy-dandy spot.

This is also a place that you can contact me, the guy behind the character. Comments here are screened if you want to send me one, and you can also find me at Plurk.

OOC: Character Info

This is a modern-day, semi-canon version of England, though he tends to stray a bit more on the serious/grumpy side.


{ B A S I C I N F O R M A T I O N }

LEGAL NAME: The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland / Arthur Kirkland
NICKNAME[S]: Art, Artie (does not prefer this one)

ETHNICITY: Western European.
DATE OF BIRTH | AGE: Unknown, places it as 23 April | Appears twenty-three, is actually over two thousand.
GENDER | SPECIES: Male | Representative of a nation. Appears human.
PLACE OF BIRTH: An area of south-eastern Britain, probably in the area now known as Kent.
CURRENT LIVING CONDITIONS: He lives primarily in a London flat that he’s owned since before the second World War, though he also still keeps a country estate in Hertfordshire that he escapes to when he needs to get away from humanity for a while.

SPOKEN LANGUAGES:

In no particular order: English, French, Welch, Scots, Gaelic (Irish and Scottish), Angloromani, Cornish, German, Spanish, Hindi; bits of Italian, Russian, Cantonese, Creole, and many other languages from his empire days.

EDUCATION: Self-taught and fully literate.

OCCUPATION: Primarily works as a nation, though on occasion he will take side jobs or volunteer merely as a way to escape from the monotony of government and be among his people. One of his most recent side jobs was teaching swordsmanship to a historical reenactment group.

CRIMINAL RECORD:

Nothing particularly bad in the past few decades since the last World War, as he’s taken his life and work a lot more seriously since then, though he’s apt to end up in jail for public drunkenness and disorderly conduct more often than he’d care to admit.
DRINK | SMOKE | DRUGS: Yes | Yes | Occasionally
LIKE[S]: Beer, rum, football, sailing, pornography, magic, the supernatural, Indian food, frustrating Alfred, reading, writing, drawing, embroidery, knitting, gardening, philosophical discussions, cooking, music, playing his guitar, sarcasm.
DISLIKE[S]: The French, Francis, stupidity, being hungry, disorder, The EU, the Euro, terrorists, being seen as weak, aeroplanes, wastefulness.
PHOBIA[S]: Ligyrophobia, or a fear of loud noises. This is a holdover from the bombings during the Blitz, and a habit that he’s been unable to break himself of. Most of the time he’s okay, but things such as harsh thunderstorms can be enough to send him into a panic attack.
PERSONALITY TRAITS: Arrogant, sarcastic, cold, possessive, and somewhat caustic, but most of the time he attempts to be a gentleman. He’s a lot warmer with those he cares for, but in an awkward way.

PIERCINGS: Two holes in each ear, tongue, and left nipple, though he hasn’t worn earrings in them in ages and the latter two are probably closed by now.
BODY TYPE: Thin and lanky, almost to the point of being bony. He's never had much luck gaining weight thanks to malnutrition of his youth, and oftentimes the subject can be a bit prickly for him.
