Bevan Gunner

History
Bevan was born in Rayonnant. His father did two of the best things in his life for him. Those two things being teaching him how to use a gun, and then leaving his life forever when Bevan was seventeen. The story behind that is definitely a fun one. Bevan was brought up by both parents; his mom who wanted him to succeed in life and do whatever he wanted to, and his father who was a drunk-a violent drunk, at that-who that would wave a gun around whenever he was angry. He would never fire, as if he used it the safety was on and it was a bludgeoning weapon.

However, the times where his dad was sober, up to a good three years before falling back off the wagon again, when he would take Bevan out into the woods where there were targets set up. There, Bevan essentially fell in love with guns, wanting to be able to handle each and every one that he could get his hands on. However, at age seventeen after Bevan had taken a definite liking more to handguns than any other type of firearm, that his father had just disappeared. That left Bevan alone with his mother and by that point he had taken on the nickname Gunn.

He helped his mother take care of the home he grew up in, staying there with her for two years until he finally found work as an intern in the mansion as a scientist's aid. It was a paid internship, nothing too big for the pay, but enough for his room in the mansion. The room of which was one of the bigger perks of working in the mansion that no one was really informed of. During his internship, around the time he turned twenty years old, there was a young woman who began to work there as well.

Meiko was the newest intern at the time and Bevan (though everyone had taken to calling him Gunn at that point) was immediately struck by cupid's arrow, so to speak. For a good two and a half years he was shy about talking to her, but tried. His hair by that point was long enough for a low ponytail and his body was not quite where it got to be at age thirty, however, that had nothing to do with him being shy. What is important at this point in time is that Bevan, who was finding his job enjoyable from the beginning, was finally asked to become a full-time scientist. He accepted it with no hesitation at all, and not even a full week later, he had Meiko holding onto his arm-an unexpected, but happy, ending to that day and week.

Meiko and Bevan stayed together for five years before he had walked in on her talking to her friends at the mansion about how she was so happy with all the money she was getting from Bevan and how she was shocked the man actually thought she loved him for him and not the money he was making. Heartbroken, he entered the room and ended it with her right then and there, only to have the woman tell him it had been over for a long time, he was just too blind to see it.

After that, he remained single until he was around twenty-nine years old. However, he eventually got into an 'It's complicated' kind of relationship with the musician Dyme Marsterson, AKA Sylver Dyme. Because of the length of Bevan's hair and how they had first met, the positioning and lighting made him look, unfortunately, like a woman. That ended up sparking an argument during their very first meeting when Dyme called him a woman, Pixie, etc. Basically their relationship developed as such: lots of fighting followed by angry sex followed by more fighting and...you guessed it, more sex. Eventually this led to confusion for both of them, with neither of them entirely sure what they wanted, but ending up falling in love with each other. They just didn't tell the other. And they never got a chance to, either, because shortly after this was their biggest, most serious fight yet.

Their biggest fight in the sense that the mansion was demanding that experiments be done in the city that would deal with the atmosphere and Bevan didn't want Dyme to be harmed in any way. Of course, Dyme was stubborn and refused to leave without a fight, as he didn't understand why Bevan was trying to push him away. Bevan never truthfully explained, and instead told Dyme that he wanted him gone, as that was really the only way to get him to leave and be as safe as possible.

Finally, he wound up cutting his hair after Dyme left, went to the gym more, became more the man he is today. And then an experiment went wrong. It was a sound wave, just severe enough to render him completely deaf in the left ear as well as slam him against the wall and disorient him for a long while.

Basic run-through
To put the basics in front of you in as plain a manner as I can, Bevan is an incredibly chill guy once you get to know him. He can be a bit out there at times, but he’s the type of guy who you would talk to about whatever and be completely chill with it. Bevan enjoys being out in the sun, but not so much on the water. That’s why I’m putting him in the game. But really, he’s a cool calm collected dude in most cases. He’ll freak out at times, but normally only when the situation really comes to be needed or something.

Temper
There is a reason this is the second thing mentioned. His temper is something not to be messed with. I mean, he won’t necessarily immediately fight you, but he gets incredibly snappy at first. There are, of course, soft spots that you can aim to hit immediately. His image is one of them. Granted, weight and height wise he will just give you the exact specifics in a snappy, not wanting to deal with this kind of shit tone. However, for real damage, that would be something best to discuss with Dyme. I mean, he brought up names to do with his image such as calling him a woman or a pixie. Things like that will get on his nerves. Especially now since he has cut his hair. Otherwise it would be a wrong place at the wrong time sort of situation. If he seems annoyed and you bring up a topic he wouldn't agree with, he'll snap at you instantly, probably with a few choice swears in there. However, he tries to keep himself as calm as possible and it takes a lot of angering him by prying on topics like his image or topics he doesn't agree with. Especially if it's an intentional jab.

Attention Span & Multi-tasking
These two go hand-in-hand. He needs to have multiple things going on in order for his attention to be fully kept. This could range from doing work on a project and thinking of something or someone else to talking to someone while cleaning an area up. However, if he isn’t doing two things at once at LEAST, he will lose interest in what he happens to be doing and just start to not care. However, at the same time, he can be well aware whenever something does need his full attention and focus on that and only that, perhaps mumbling incoherently to himself or something similar as he does so.

Specifics
Bevan is a scientist. He pays very close attention to the specifics of everything. Such as his weight, his height, the exact science behind whatever he is working on, and in that, he gets a bit annoying with it. This is something that anyone around him can get. However, the specifics about himself are all a matter of pride. The specifics about science can sometimes be lacking but most times aren’t.

For a scientist, he doesn’t speak science ;; Bevan uses words like “dude”, “whatever”, and terms such as “yeah right” on a regular basis. His use of science does not move to his ability to speak to people in a scientific manner. If you want to figure out how smart he is, get his interest in something and he can probably start to blow you away. However, that’s only if you get his attention with the right topic and not so much boring science talk because his attention will go away from you and the topic. No matter how into it he was originally.

Pride
In case you didn’t notice, Bevan likes to make sure people are aware of the specifics to do with him. “You’re like 5’6”” is something you will be met with “AND A HALF” because he doesn’t like feeling like he’s being short changed. He’s well aware it can get on peoples nerves, and he, particularly, doesn’t care. The Bevan Gunner is a proud species, after all. He is proud to the point of defending himself in a half circle if he realizes he was wrong. He will argue until both positions are proven opposite and the person he is arguing with hardly knows which way is up. Granted, that does not always work, but when it does, oh my, it really works.

Depression
Oh he handles it fiiiiine... I mean other people being depressed. When he’s upset, he’ll go into a full blown rage potentially and maybe just kinda sorta destroy a lab and a half and then have to explain what happened, why it happened, and that he was sorry and would try to not let it happen ever again. And that would fail horribly. He will either drink himself to rage mode, which he doesn’t like doing. Like, he might like to drink, but it can mirror his personality to some extent. Like the mood he’s in and shit. When he’s depressed, he’ll become his father. And he doesn’t want to be like his father. Ever.

Drinking
This one’s fun because when he drinks and he’s not in any particular mood of any variety, he will wind up talking while drunk. And he’ll talk a lot. And I mean a lot. He is definitely a truth speaker when it comes to being drunk too. Unfortunately, he’s not a lightweight. And he normally sticks to plain beer and not so much liquor. Drinking GAMES is something he enjoys as well. Primarily games like Circle of Death, Suicide, Beer Pong... I can explain each one too. They’re so much fun it’s horrible.

Protectiveness
When it comes to someone that Bevan can connect with in some way, someone he cares about, he will pretty much die for them. Like, if you have him as a friend, he’ll make sure you stay alive and he’ll have your back at pretty much all times. That’s both a good thing and bad thing because he is still in love with Meiko who won’t show up on this boat, not only because the water would OMG RUIN HER HAIR but because I wouldn’t wish that headache upon anyone...

Strange Habits
This one is fun. And even then there's really only one. He enjoys being upside down. Like, something he discovered that helps him while on a boat, he has been on a boat before, he just...puked after ten minutes. But one thing that helps is actually being upside down-whether it's something as simple as a handstand, or he actually hops up into a steady bar somewhere and hangs upside down like that. Don't ask me, it's a nice calming relaxing thing!

Opinions on various things
Alright, quick list of opinions and kind of clarification.

Drugs
He doesn't like pills and shit. He's smoked weed before, but it isn't something he'll wind up itching for all the time. He's done shrooms once but never touched pills or needles, and only shrooms and pot just because they grow in the goddamned ground.

DYME and drugs
With Dyme, when it comes to drugs, he’s definitely more on the protective side, even if he would never come right out and admit to it at all. Like ever. He wanted Dyme to quit using drugs, but at the same time, he had a feeling that flat out controlling the rock stars life would not be happening. Like at all. Ever. In a million years ever. So, he gave his opinion, somehow got him to at least start trying to stop, Bevan thought so anyway, and then knew it would start up again when he was sent home.

Sex // Sexuality
He is bisexual. He's fallen in love with men before, with women before, but when it comes down to it, if he's in a relationship he won't be like “Oh well my lovely boy/girlfriend. since I am bisexual I can clearly also date a girl/guy as well as you!” No. That's just wrong in his book.

Work // Experiments
When it came to work and the experiments he and all of the other scientists did, he didn’t really want to care all that much. Especially when it came to the simpler stuff that would be way more controlled. It didn’t really start showing that he cared until experiments would start involving the people of Rayonnant, whether that wanted to be included or not, and that was when he would make comments, or try to stop it or change it or something. He had other people above his own self at pretty much all times.

Love
AHAHA. This one’s fun. The guy can love, he’s just terrified of it because of Meiko. That bitch - I mean horrible woman - I mean...uhm...make your own opinion. That person of the female persuasion who has made horrible decisions and breaks hearts and shit like that. BUT BECAUSE OF HER. She made him find himself in a position where it was hard to fall in love with anyone, really. That would be why, while he knows he loves Dyme, but he would never admit to it because Meiko ruined that for him.
