inner details;

Appearance:
Hair
James doesn't usually give a damn about his hair. If he has bed head, who cares? Unless he's going somewhere special that requires a certain image, he doesn't do anything to hair expect run a comb through it every now and then. He keeps his dirty blonde locks a little long for fun, but that's the only thing he's consistent about. If it gets too long, he gets a hair cut, no questions asked.

Face
Blessed with one of those scruffy, attractive faces, James takes great pride in his face. It really depends on his mood though. If he's feeling sorta down, he'll allow some scruff to grow. It he's happy and content, he'll shave it off. He has green eyes that usually stay the same shade regardless of what he's wearing. His smile isn't perfect, but his teeth are white and he keeps them clean.

Body
Having played several sports in High School, James sports an athletic, muscular body type. He stands straight at about 6'3" but he usually slouches so it's more like 6'2". He works out whenever he can, with the amount changing weekly, so he keeps a good amount of muscle mass on his body.

Style
Ah yes, another thing James could really care less about. Give him a torn pair of jeans and a tee shirt any day thank you very much. He doesn't care for fashion, nor does he follow trends or shop much. If he runs out of jeans, then he'll make a quick stop by a store to pick up another pair or two. The typical guy shopper, he is get in, and get out, as fast as he possibly can.

Personality:
Laid Back
James is about as laid back a guy as you could ever hope to meet. He doesn't hold high standards, just as long as you don't expect much from him either. He's completely comfortable laying around his apartment in sweats watching a movie. That's the life my friend, that is the life.

Determined
When James sets his mind on something, there's no way he lets it go. The dreams that lay within his mind are almost always achieved, and he prides himself in finishing things that he starts. When he really sits down and works, there's nothing he can't accomplish.

Realistic
As great as the fantasy world is, James prefers to stay on Earth. He doesn't day dream, or set his goals too high. He's a very "on the ground" type of guy, who doesn't care much for romanticism and other such things. Not saying he can't be romantic, just that he doesn't really believe in prince charmings.

Funny
Unless you're one of those crazy people who just walks around with a stone face all the time, there's a good chance that James can make you laugh. He prides himself in his sense of humor, though you have to understand his type of joke to think it's funny. He uses his jokes and sarcasm to break the ice when he meets new people.

the background;

History:
Born in a small town in Florida, James grew up on the water. He learned to swim and surf at the young age of five, and was soon spending as much time as he could in the ocean. When he was ten years old, his mother lost her battle with breast cancer. James and his father were torn apart by this loss, and so moved away from the town, not wanting the memories it provided them with. They moved to a place in North Carolina, where James settled more into his sort of "bad boy" image. Not that he really is a trouble maker, but his appearance leads people to believe that he is. He made some new friends, but chose to lead a quieter life now, focusing more on his grades and his school work then his social life. When he graduated high school, he attended UNC on a part academic scholarship, a great feat for him. He graduated last year, and moved to Monaco this year searching for a good time, and seeking a chance to see the world before he's too old.
