Kevin Snyder Marris

-Available By Sample Post Only-

Nickname(s): Kev, Marris

Age: 19

Grade: Senior

Birthday: July 18th

Appearance: Kevin is one of those poster boy, preppy white guys. He wears Abercrombie and Fitch, Berkinstocks, and baggy pants and shorts. Kevin is also handsome, he has light brown hair with a little bit of wave in it. His brown eyes can look sad at times, almost like he is carrying some pain he can’t express into words. He is muscular but not overly muscular. He stands about 6 foot 2 and has broad shoulders. His style is a compliment to the seemingly perpetual confidence he conveys to people just by being in the same room with them.

Personality: Kevin is one of those complicated people that you think have figured then he changes your perception of him, most times unintentionally, meaning, if life were a novel then Kevin’s character would be constantly evolving; he attempts to hide this characteristic. Kevin is also a mean boy because he feels he has to be mean to the weaker kids, meaning the nerdy ones, or one he views to be nerdy. The concept is not unlike Social Darwinism, he is strong and they are weak. Kevin is also a quiet boy most of the time, and the way he talks leads people to believe his answers to question are calculated before he speaks.

Most of these characteristics: His mean streak, his quiet pensiveness, and the sadness in his eyes did not appear until he lost his girlfriend in a car wreck two days before their 3 yr. anniversary.

Family: Kevin lives with both parents, although his relationship with them is often strained. He wants to live up to the expectations of his father, who was an all-state wide receiver in high school, he feels that he can’t and often times pushes himself to far. His mother is almost never there because she travels a lot on business, leaving Kevin and his father to fend for themselves.

History: Kevin has always lived in Ridgefield, and he has always played football dating back to pee-wee. He feels his whole life hinges life hinges on it and making his dad proud of him. If he doesn’t make the team one year he wouldn’t know what to do with himself. His life, his persona is built around it along with his life. Kevin has never had a job, although one summer he did cut lawns for people to get some extra cash even though his parents give him more than enough money he just wanted to see what it would feel like to work, he stopped after cutting one lawn.

Kevin blames himself for Gina’s Death because she wouldn’t have even been out driving, if h hadn’t had begged her to come by his house. He had a plan to propose to her on the day marking their 3 years of being together, but he couldn’t contain the nervousness and excitement he was feeling, she died on her way to his house.
