WANTED: An Enjolras to my Grantaire

[R. Scott Grant]

Do you hear the people sing?

[/center]

Hello e/R shippers and Les Mis fans, or any potential claimers!

I am in desperate need of an Enjolras-based character for my Grantaire-based character for shipping purposes. So, here is an actual partially completed app for your convenience. Feel free to modify things as you see fit. My only requirement is that his basic essence remains... Enjolras-y and that his play-by is the lovely Aaron Tveit.


If you need any more help fleshing him out, here's how Victor Hugo describes him: "Enjolras...was an only son and was rich. He was a charming young man, capable of being intimidating. He was angelically beautiful...A pontifical and warrior nature, strange in a youth. He was officiating and militant; from the immediate point of view, a soldier of democracy; above the movement of the time, a priest of the ideal. He had a deep eye, slightly red lids, thick underlip, readily disdainful, and a high forehead...Like certain young men...who become illustrious in early life, he had an exceedingly youthful look, as fresh as a young girl's, though he had moments of pallor. Already a man, he still seemed a child. His twenty-two years appeared as seventeen; he was serious, he did not seem to know that there was a being on earth called woman. He had one passion only, justice; one thought only, to remove all obstacles...Before anything but the Republic, he chastely dropped his eyes. He was the marble lover of liberty. His speech was roughly inspired and had the tremor of a hymn. He would spread his wings unexpectedly and astonish you by his soaring. Woe to the love affair that should venture to intrude on him! Had any grisette...seeing this college boy's face, the body of a page, long fair lashes, blue eyes, that hair flying in the wind, rosy cheeks, pure lips, exquisite teeth, felt a desire to taste all this dawn, and tried her beauty on Enjolras, a surprising and terrible look would have suddenly shown her the great gulf, and taught her not to confuse Beaumarchais's dashing cherubino with this fearsome cherubim of Ezekiel."

Full Name:

[/color] YOUR CHOICE
Nicknames: YOUR CHOICE
Age: 17-18
Birthdate: YOUR CHOICE
Sexuality: Gaaaay. Or at the very least bisexual. (I know that Les Mis fans are tempted to make Enjolras asexual... but NO!)
Gender: Male
Problem: I think he'd probably be here for anger or something? He's an angry revolutionary, right? OH! Or maybe his conservative parents sent him here because he's gay and/or supports gay rights! Maybe he was an embarrassment to them? The possibilities are endless though. My only request is that you don't make him schizophrenic and believing that he is leading a revolution that is all in his head. My poor heart couldn't take that.
Grade: Senior
Clique(s): Your choice, but I'd suggest "Others", since he is the type who would start his own clique, à la les Amis.
Classes:

Weight: 145 lbs (that gives him a BMI of 19.7)
Hair Color: Blonde
Eye Color: Blue-Grey?
Notable Features: UP TO YOU
Play-By: Aaron Tveit (not up to you)
General Description: He's got golden hair and blue eyes. He's girlishly pretty? [/justify][/blockquote][/size]

Likes:

[/color]

-Giving beautiful (long winded) speeches.
-FREEDOM!
-Democracy.
-The colour red (and he looks lovely in it).
-Equality.
-Protesting? (Revolutionary translates to being an activist right?)
-Advocacy.
-Humanitarian work.
-LGBT Rights.
-Liberal Causes? (I'm guessing that his revolutionary beliefs in the book/musical/film would roughly translate to advocating for the poor and lgbt people).

Dislikes:

-The Government?
-Authority.
-Poverty.
-Injustice.
-Oppression.
-Apathy.
-Homophobia.

Strengths:

-Passion!
-Charisma.
-Charm.
-Leadership.
-Idealism.
-Compassion.
-Determination.
-Faith.
-Bravery.
-Beauty.

Weaknesses:

-His idealism may translate to naivety?
-He can be intimidating (perhaps unintentionally?)
-He invests himself completely in his cause, and perhaps forgets to care for himself?
-He can be cold (perhaps unintentionally?)
-IDK ENJOLRAS IS PERFECT. I feel like we almost have to make up flaws for an Enjolras-inspired character.

Fears:

-I don't know anything that would scare Enjolras, so again, we're making stuff up.
-Spiders?
-Not being able to make a difference in his life time.

Disorders: YOU DECIDE
General Description: He's a passionate leader. He'd make a great candidate for a debate team. He's the sort of student advocate who would organize protests for fun. My advice is that you plagiarize the crap out of Victor Hugo here if you want the closest thing to Enjolras. [/justify][/blockquote][/size]

History: We know that he has rich parents, but that he's rebelled and supports liberal causes. But, you can take whatever liberties with his history you'd like. [/justify][/blockquote][/size]
