Personality:
Arthur complains and rant a lot. Though no matter how much he rants about something he actually quite like it. For example the rain, he complains a lot about the shitty weather, but Arthur loves the rain. Arthurs character could be described as tsundere.
He has a bit of harsh personality, but once you get him to open up he's one of the nicest guys around. He's quickly embarassed.
He has a few “secret” hobbies. Arthur strongly believes in magic and ghosts no matter what everyone says. And no matter how many times people make fun of it. He's often made fun of, because of his likes and looks. He hates it when someone makes fun of his "funny" haircut and eyebrows.
He can be a bit of neat freak. He likes to have things in order and clean. He always dresses in something rather formal.
He wasn't always like this. He used to be rather rebellious punk. He still has a few ear piercings left of that. He has just gotten more down to earth as his band had broken up and all that drama.
History:
Arthur is the oldest son of the Kirkland family and was born in England, London. He had lived there for awhile with his parents and younger brother Alfred. Their parents got divorced and his mother moved to the USA together with Alfred, where she remarried a man who had alreaday a son.
Arthur stayed with his father in London. He rarely get to see his brother Alfred. They keep in contact over IM, skype and all that. His mother writes him often though. Sometimes begging for him to come live with them. Especially recently. She has found some sort of good college for him and would love to see him graduate there and live just a few years with them.
She was the one who sent them on holiday for some brother bounding. Arthur thinks it is to change his mind on not moving to America. He doesn't quite see why he would want to move to America, while his mother had left him behind with his father in England in the first place.
Arthur doesn't have many friends in England, but he likes them and look after them, even if they don't know it half of the time. He had dreamed to become a famous singer with his band, but that was a few years ago before the band broke up. His girlfriend broke up with him as he was no longer in a band. Ever since then he had failed in finding someone to love. He secretly hopes to find a special someone here, in the alps, but he doesn't get his hopes up too high.
Other than that he still doesn't know what he wants to do with his life. He hopes to figure this out quick before graduating from college. He currently is studying history in a university in London. He's thinking of becoming a history teacher but he isn't quite sure of that yet.
(I can always fix this part when more kirkland family members show up.)
Roleplay Sample:Arthur rubbed his arms violently and shivered. "Bloody weather." He hated the cold. He prefered rain over coldness and snow. He stepped back inside the hotel. He hated snow. God how much he hated it especially hating it now, because some idiot had decided that it was funny to shove snow into his pants. He squirmed as he felt the snow melting and going down.
He quickly made his way to his own room, he felt the snow melting more and now down to his male parts. Squirming and shivering more. People were giving him weird looks and stared at him. Arthur tried to just walk onto his room and hide his blush. As he gotten into his room, he immediately stripped off. First were his pants to go, then taking off his underpants. Not thinking twice about the one who was rooming with him.
Along went his jacket and shirt. Fully naked in the middle of the hotel room. Glad he was finally snowfree. That was just a few seconds when he suddenly hear people yelling outside. Oh no! no no! He quickly gotten on the floor, with a large blush across his face. A certain person had opened the curtains! Arthur hoped no one outside there knew him. Embarassed, he kept himself low as he had gathered clean clothes, quickly dressing up.
That was embarassing. He hide his face in a pillow and squirmed wanting to forget this ever happened and planning revenge on the one who had shoved that snow down his pants. That person was so dead tomorrow.
