Personality:
Antonio is an extremely cheerful man who always views things optimistically, a fact that can easily be seen upon first meeting him. His bright personality is almost as well known as the fact that he can be extremely dense. Due to his thick-headedness, he can be seen as insensitive or unintelligent.
When he finds something he loves, he goes after it passionately, a fact that sometimes can rub people the wrong way. The intensity of his emotions makes him easy to read and you can always tell what he is thinking by a single glance. He doesn't try to hide his emotions a lot, feeling that it is important for people to show how they really feel, otherwise everybody will all be unhappy inside. Antonio is extremely easy to get excited, but hard to anger or upset.
He doesn't have very many enemies, or that is what he believes at least. He gets a long with most everyone and tries to be nice to the people he doesn't like as well. Sometimes he doesn't even realize that he doesn't like someone and will talk to them like they're old pals. He doesn't like lying and feels guilty for a long time even after telling just a white lie. No one can be cheerful all the time, and Antonio is no exception. People who have seen him truly angry say he is a completely different person. His normal frustration, however, just cause him to act childish.
History:
Antonio spent most of his childhood in Spain. He loved to be outdoors, whether it be gardening or just running around. The sunlight was his first love and he would find any excuse to be out in it. He was perpetually happy as a child, something the other children would tease him about. He never understood that they were teasing him though, which made them label him as a cheerful idiot.
When he was in his teens, he turned into a big prankster. He was still just as passionate as he is now, but back then it was targeted around mischief and sometimes even violence. He fought a lot in his youth, until moving to Switzerland in his late teens. Because of the drastic change in climate, he calmed down a bit. He got a job at Resort Du Lucerne and moved there a couple years later.
Roleplay Sample:
Being behind the camera lens was always a thrill. There was something about the way people looked on film that attracted him to it. He could create whatever scenes and moods he wanted others to feel with a simple change in lighting or the angle of a hip. Should they be sensual? fighting? It was all up to him. No matter what, he always tried to make sure his pictures stirred some sort of emotion in people, otherwise what would be the point?
Antonio set up another shot, but when he went to snap the photo, it just didn't seem right. Giving the models an apologetic smile, he lowered his camera again and fiddled with the lights. A step back and... perfect. A series of poses later, he decided that he was satisfied and let his subjects leave. Now he just needed to upload these to the computer and he could finish for the day. He was excited, it was really nice outside and the park wasn't usually busy at this time of day.
He walked over to the computers and stared. 'How do I do this again?' he thought, looking from his camera to the moniter. After a minute, all he had managed to do was make it angry. The screen was a really ugly blue colour and it was making this strange noise whenever he touched something. He looked around frantically before spotting someone who looked like they could help him. "Ah, excuse me? I think this computer hates me. Can you ask it to ...um, take the pictures from my camera?"
