Occupation: online high school history teacher / has a master’s in history and is working on a PhD to teach at university

Hobbies:
video games - He’s always liked them ever since he was small, and they usually fulfill whatever mood he wants at the time. Whether it’s a relaxing Animal Crossing adventure or a rousing game of Call of Duty, Tanwyn is into it. The genre doesn’t really matter.

models - He likes building and painting them, but Tanwyn is not really into playing things that involve them, like DnD or Warhammer. Has a side hustle of painting miniatures for people who do like those games, though. He’s pretty good at it.

kickboxing - He really liked watching MMA-type shows with his dad when he was younger and making it into a rambunctious time. Somewhere in high school he got into learning real moves and still works out and practices now.

Virtues:
determined - Very strong belief in himself and that he can accomplish whatever he sets out to do. Carries little uncertainty with him. Makes a decision or plan and has every intention of carrying it out as best he can.

independent - Never felt a huge compulsion to constantly be around others, so is perfectly fine being left by himself for days, weeks, even months on end. Tanwyn knows what he has to do to keep himself healthy and occupied, and doesn’t mind being the only one to moderate himself.

calm - Overall difficult to get a rise out of. Even when frustrated, Tanwyn keeps a straight face and a measured demeanor. Doesn’t let things get to him, and tries to keep a level head when any problems arise. Pretty unshakeable. Likes relaxing. Finds this easiest in the absence of most others.

Flaws:
proud - He can do no wrong. Tanwyn doesn’t take criticism well, but gets very frustrated and persistent in his methods when something doesn’t work out for him. He can definitely be that pushy guy that starts to scare girls when they refuse him, but he’s too wrapped up in himself and what he wants to think he’s done anything inappropriate.

chilly - Gives off that feeling of disliking someone as soon as he meets them. Tanwyn isn’t interested in hearing pretty much anything about anyone else. He’s not receptive to very emotional displays or other’s plight. Doesn’t cry during sad movies.

brusque - Tanwyn is not the politest guy and usually is very blunt even with people who’s company he enjoys. Sees no shame in pointing things out that he doesn’t like about others and really just wants to get to the point of a conversation without much chit-chat.
