FIRST IMPRESSIONS
» visual: Link. Gendry is described as being big and strong and stands at over six feet tall. Although usually dirty, he is considered fairly handsome. He bears an extremely strong resemblance to King Robert in his youth and to his uncle, Lord Renly. Those who have met them are often able to spot the resemblance in Gendry fairly easily. Also he's supposed to be 16/18 (depending on version), so just... pretend he looks like it.
» aural: Bloody Highborns | Stubborn Smith | Family Time
» olfactory: Sweat, smoke, and metal. He is not inclined to bathe option and sees no real point in it.
» demeanour: Gendry is a cynical and distrustful man who has grown up at the bottom of society and been instilled with a great sense of distrust for those with privilege and rank. He is embittered by his experiences and going through a period of having lost his way. These experiences have made him callous and hateful and he lashes out at others with insults and threats. Yet underneath his surly and sullen temperament, he has the makings of a true knight.


IN CHARACTER
» physical affection: Gendry has an awkward sense of affection that begins and ends with awkward pats on the shoulder. He has little experience with intimacy and is quick to spurn it when its offered. He is distrustful especially of female intimacy and the more aggressive it is, the more he'll push away.
» physical violence: Gendry is naturally violent. While not murderous, it doesn't take much to have him throw a punch or push someone into a wall. He won't harm women or children due to his oaths, though he can be encouraged into playful wrestling on rare occasion.
» relationships: Gendry is unspoken for, though he was born to a whore and takes a cynical look at relationships. He is slow to intimacy and even slower to opening up.
» psychic/telepath/etc: He's completely open to that so long as there's fair warning ahead of time.
» magic: There is power in a king's blood, apparently. But his only superpower is Baratheon genetics dominating the genetics of anyone else.
» offensive subjects & triggers: None, really. He's sensitive about being a bastard and a lowborn knight.


OUT OF CHARACTER
» backtags: I'm fine with backtagging. But I enjoy boomeranging too.
» threadhops: Just as long as you're courteous about it, I'm good with it. (If you threadhop on my post to tag someone else, be considerate about what you're doing to my inbox).
» fourthwalls: I'd prefer not. Your character can certainly recognize him and his world, but Gendry has a million other issues and doesn't need to deal with being fictional.
» triggers: Gendry is foul mouthed and prone to using some colorful vocabulary. He's bound to discuss some pretty brutal subjects without much thought to them.


SPOILERS
» So you know that hot HBO show where everyone keeps dying? Gendry's not from that. He's from the book series. He's from his own very latest canon point, which translates to about season five or six of where the show will be. So if you're a fan of the show and don't want to have the future ruined for you, give me a heads up! I can either not tag you or you can just ask me to avoid spoilers around your character. Since this is for multiple games, please let me know what game you're in.
