Name: Guilherme Baltazar
Alias: Bolt
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Weapon(s): Composite Bow and Blowgun (doesn't know how to use it)
Tribe: Loner
Rank: N/A
Nationality: Portuguese
Politics: Too busy trying to enjoy life to care
Romantic orientation: Straight
Appearance: Bolt used to be the shortest guy in his class because his birthday is in December, but he seems to be growing very healthily now. You can notice by the silent and light way he walks that his flexibility is something great.
Unlike many people from his country, Bolt was born with strong wavy blond hair, that he cuts so it reaches his eyes and the middle of his neck, and big amber eyes that sometimes looked more like green. Still, his skin is typically Mediterranian, a honey tanned white skin. His elder sister used to tell him he'd become a goodlooking young man, although he was always too innocent to give any importance to such subject. He just wanted to be intelligent.
Bolt has slender caullused hands from practising with his bow. His shoulders are rapidly enlarging due to the effort of fireing arrows while in an archer's stance.
Nowadays he uses his Kung Fu training pants. They are quite light, made of a soft black fabric and somewhat baggy. Bolt loves them because he doens't need to wear a belt or have to worry about a zipper he ususally forgets to close after he goes to the bathroom. He also wears a red t-shirt that have bat wings drawed in the back. When it's cold or raining he puts on his grey hooded sweater, with a kangaroo pocket and the word "BOLT" in white letters in the chest. He uses simple Feivue shoes that he used to wear when training. Bolt likes them because they are light and flexible; and he loves to fell the ground flaws underneath his feet.
Attitude: Bolt is a very peaceful person. He always tries to work his way around a fight with friends or anyone else. He lives his life with passion and tries to enjoy every bit of it. He is an extrovert little fellow and used to constantly tell jokes, not so much now. He can be somehow arrogant at times, when something he wants to be right is not right afterall.
He likes to practice with his bow or blowgun, but if he should practice anything else, he usually doesn't. He's a lazy bastard many times. He dislikes to boast and even more people who boast about themselves. Still, he loves gossiping, but always tries to leave clea rthe fact he doesn't like to tell bad things about other people in their back. Usually he corrects other people's words and actions, even if the mistake was unnoticable, but he only does it as a joke, never wanting to hurt anyone's feelings. He is direct, and everything serious he has to say, he does so face to face. Actually it's all because he hates to waste his time. That's one of the reasons he doesn't like sleeping; it wastes way too much time in his life. Can you immagine what you could do during all the time you were sleeping?! Yet, he is a caring person and hates to leave even the stupidest person behind.
Beyond his extrovert and carefree personality, Bolt is intellectual, dedicated, very intelligent and a smartass. Sometimes he talks too much, but he always sounds like he was a much older person, so generally people like talking to him. Although very intelligent, everything he doesn't like he just puts aside. Still he has this thirst for scientific and intercultural knowledge. Since he was a little boy he has always loved the wildlife. He's a massive walking encyclopedia of animals and plants, especially plants used as alternative medicine. Should you think he spent hours and hours reading real encyclopedias, you're wrong. As said before, Bolt is extremely intelligent when he wants everything he reads, listen to or see by free will he memorizes.
Finally, Bolt's favourite gift is his voice. He has a gift for singing that he always trained with the help of his mother. He loved to annoy people when he maintained the same note for a long time, vibrating his voice. People were jealous, he thought, so he became sad. Now he kind of hides the fact he is a great singer. Still he keeps singing and singing and would like to be a great vocalist when older.
Notable History: It was a hard time for Portugal. Almost everyone was running out of money. Still Guilherme's family was able to keep themselves at a high rank. Guilherme's mother was a famous actress and his father an acclaimed neurosurgeon. He also had a 22 year old sister and they looked almost like twins, despite the age difference.
Since his 6 years he joined a Kung Fu club in his town, where he learnt some fighting techniques and where he developed his reflexes and flexibility. Early he found out his master and him had a common preference for a bow as a weapon, so he taught Guilherme how to use one personally. Guilherme's father had a weapon collection, and among the weapons was a composite bow Guilherme immideatly addopted. So, after a few years of intense training, Guilherme quickly became proficient with his bow and very accurate. At the age of 14 he started to want to use a blowgun as well, but no one ever trained him that way.
But Guilherme's tragic tale began when his mother died in a car crash in the highway. Everything happened too fast: after his mother's death, Guilherme also received the bad news of his father suicide. His sister was in New York during an intercultural university program and didn't know of anything going on in Portugal. The week after his parent's death the Black Plague attacked New York and Los Angeles, and without knowing, Guilherme found himself alone in the world, with no other relatives. He was as sad as anyone can be, but he didn't cry because he was too tired to. He felt like his parents had betrayed him and started to hate them.
Then he remembered! He was to visit his sister next week and the plane ticket was already bought and the autorization saying he could fly by himself was done. So somehow, Guilherme managed to get to Lisbon's airport, catch a plane and fly to the USA, where he would find his sister. He took only a small bag with all the money he could find, his pet squirrel Squeak, his blowgun and some underwear as well as a few clothes. He got the permission to take his bow from his father's desk and thought it was a miracle no one made too much questions about it. He had already learnt english at school, and since he loved it he knew more than the average children of his age. During the flight he learnt about the Black Plague from a lady who travelled next to him. He also learnt he wouldn't land in New York but somewhere near.
So he decided he'd do everything he could to enter New York and look for his sister.
Reputation: Bolt is a trustful person. People around him tend to trust him their secrets and personal affairs by instinct. He's also seen as the guy who knows a lot about Zoology and Botany and the Bow geek that doesn't miss a damn target. Curse him.
