Physical Description:

Beri is edging into his final growth spurt, but hasn't really grown in about a year.  He has longish, carefully mussed blond hair.  It was white-blond when he was younger, but it's darkened recently.  He has big puppy-dog eyes and a gentle-looking face that would be angular if not for a little baby fat.  He doesn't exercise (and smoking up doesn't help suppress his appetite), so he's a little mushy around the middle, but young enough that it doesn't really matter.

He wears very trendy clothes, or what he thinks of as trendy--really whatever he can afford from cheap teen or vintage shops.  He likes layers, mesh, artfully ripped pants, tight pants, leather, wrist cuffs, and weird funky jewelry.  His brother sometimes tells him he looks like an idiot, but Beri knows he's incredibly fashionable.  Unless he's in a self-doubting mood.

Personality:

Very, very sensitive, shy with strangers, doesn't have the best social skills, very insecure, somewhat shallow.  Quite intelligent, but uses his hacking skills mainly to get around his school's attendance system... not that he can fix his grades much, since the teachers are real people.

Weaknesses:  

Sensitive, lazy, sometimes awkward, smokes a lot of pot.

Strengths:

Intelligent, very good with computers, genuinely kindhearted once he's over his crippling insecurity.  Oh, and he's a good dancer.

Likes:

Music, cannabis, clothes, eyeliner, the sex scenes from his brother's comics, DDR.

Dislikes:

School, work, receiving criticism of any kind.

Magic/Abilities:  

Minor earth magic, practically useless about the Libra.  He can... grow stuff?  But doesn't really care about it, though he helps his mother with her potted plants and Nil with his marijuana and mushroom farm.

Relationships:

NPC
[li]Dazhik Oskari: 50, father, was a janitor, promoted to sanitation manager.  He is very critical of Beri, in a loving way that can seem very harsh.  Beri always takes it personally and thinks his father hates him/disapproves of him.  They rub each other the wrong way.[/li]
[li]Mirat Oskari: 48, mother, owns the small arcade Galaxy Games.  Beri sometimes hides in his more permissive parent, but she'll snap if he goes too far.[/li]
[li]Emory Vicenzo: deceased, uncle, mage, ex-TOPZ-captain, his brother Vin's childhood idol.  Beri himself was only six when he died.[/li]
[li]Ganil 'Nil' Ioran: friend through Vin, really lazy, owns the hookah bar 'Epic Spice.'  When he came up with the name, he was so high he thought it was a palindrome.  He gives Beri free pot and lets him hang out in the store.[/li][/list]

PC
[li]Eyvinder 'Vin' Oskari: 24, brother, TOPZ Gunner.  They have a generally close, playful relationship, but Beri resents him for his success in the military and his willingness to do hard work.  And their parents love him better (he thinks).[/li][/list]
