He simply prefers not to waste words, and anything he says, he does so with intent, though whether that intent is of the good or bad sort can vary - it's always good on his side. A convincing liar, though not unless he's needed to be, Viper always seems assured in his words, regardless of how well-invested in them he really is. He's charismatic - very cordial, if not a bit aloof - though stoic enough that he isn't necessarily the sort most people would go about blindly trusting (which isn't to say he can't gain trust when he makes the extra effort to). He's certainly intelligent, seeming to be well-educated, well-read and well-mannered; the picture of a charming intellectual, while managing to escape appearing conceited. His confidence rarely runs into arrogance, as he generally remains self-assured enough to keep from biting off more than he can chew, or from appearing unapproachable (though it's entirely possible to be put off by his stoic nature). Despite usually maintaining rationality and seeming collected, Viper has a self-indulgent, slightly irresponsible side to him as well. He won't claim to be enlightened above materialism, enjoying the finer things in life rather openly and at times irresponsibly - though he's usually able to reel himself before he gets too out of hand. He knows himself pretty well and even if he isn't entirely above temptation, it's rare for Viper to completely surrender himself to it. He's independent and capable, prudently looks out for himself above anyone else, though not entirely without conscience or concern for others.[/style] |

With his father running a successful, though not to large, accounting firm, his family lived comfortably in the upper middle class. With parents always driving home the importance of education, Viper had always taken school quite seriously, a bright student who recieved high grades, never got into trouble, his parents' pride and joy. Since his early academic success, it had always been assumed that Viper would continue into post-secondary education, earn a degree, become successful and continue making his parents proud - and that was what he intended to do. However, when he was fourteen, a combination of slowing business and treachy on the part of his father's business partner, Viper's father was all but forced into bankcruptcy. They moved to New Orleans where there was his mother's family to help out. Viper had always been bitter about the move from LA, from all that was familiar to him, as any child would be, but it also planted other ideas in his mind. From then on, Viper came to resent his father (though he remained very close to his mother, as he still is to this day) - for all his education and hard work, he'd lost everything, left with nothing to show for it all. From then on school lost priotity for Viper - while he got by with passing grades, he never put in the same effort as he had before. Education became more of an afterthought, with socialization being put into focus, as Viper came to realize his father's traitor of a partner, who he'd initially and understandably seen as an enemy, became a sort of ideal. Though Viper was unsure of what had become of him once they left LA, he liked to think he remained unscathed by the near failure of the business, and that he grew even more successful than he'd ever been. It became less about working hard, and more about getting other people to work hard for him. He graduated high school (just barely) - his relationship with his father was distant as ever, and there was little expectation of Viper at this point, though his mother continued to encourage him to apply to colleges - he was evidently intelligent, even if his grades hardly showed it. Eventually, he decided that whatever he decided to do next, it certainly wasn't to stay in New Orleans. As it turned out, his mother had remained undyingly faithful in her only son, convinced his father to keep the college fund they'd been saving up, certain that he'd continue on in his education as she always thought he would. Not entirely without guilt for decieving his mother, Viper declared he wanted to go to school back in LA. Despite the drop in his grades over the years, Viper had never ceased to prove himself responsible and competent in other matters, and he was entrusted with the money - his father seemed to have a spark of hope for his future, and was more than willing to send him off. Once he got to LA, he was quick to rebuild his network, finding old friends and making new ones, before he finally decided on an old friend he trusted as a 'partner'. The two of them set up a pyramid scheme, and for the time being Viper lives comfortably off the earnings from their 'business'. [/style] |
