NAME: Bridge Glower (short "o" sound. Glau-er, not glow-er)
AGE: 32 years old
APPEARANCE: A sort of average, everyday joe. He sports blue eyes and dirty blonde hair which he does his best to keep combed back. In the past he used to be much more well kept in his appearance, but as of recently has let himself slip away due to family and financial matters. His body isn't as well built as it used to be, and is now on the thinner side. Shaves on a daily basis to look less scruffy. Clothes are looking well since he has had them for quite a while when times were better, but are slightly dirty. Bridge usually wears a black button up coat and gloves when leaving the house to go to work
PERSONALITY: Bridge is what mot would consider a 'good guy.' Sort of meek and on the quiet side, not looking to start trouble. Basically a door mat. He feels no need to gloat or speak aloud if he has no matter or say in a topic. Though he and his family were doing well and he was much happier then, a recent turn of events have caused them to slip into poverty, somewhat. Thus his attitude has dulled as well. Bridge is used to traveling and enjoys taking walks often when the weather is well and warm, but is nervous about doing so at night when returning home after work to his daughter, Elisabeth.
HISTORY: Bridge Glower grew up from a simple family life in the country side, not too far from a busy city in a England equivalent of some sort. Sunderland itself maybe?. Growing up he always wanted to make a life for himself in the city, and eventually went on to do just that! Being rather good with finances and money, Bridge became a bank teller at a bank in the city. Through this simple, daily job, he met the loveliest lady he had ever laid eyes on, in his opinion. She was beautiful, with hair and eyes a brown as brightly colored as the woods itself. They courted for some time before Bridge popped her the question of marrying him, in which she replied yes. Settling down together in a small, cramped home and starting rather young, they had their one and only child. A daughter named Elisabeth.
Eventually though, this happy life Bridge thought he had claimed would not last forever. His wife began to have an affair, bringing home a man that Bridge had no knowing about while he was away at work in the daytime as a banker. He would work rather long hours, so his daughter would be left home with her mother. But it was little Elisabeth who would see and hear all that went on. It made her very nervous. When Elisabeth eventually told him of what was going on (as she mostly stuck to staying in bed. Not quite bed ridden), and Bridge worriedly approached his wife on the matter, she left in a angry huff in the middle of the night without another word to them. From then on, Bridge and his daughter lived by themselves, going about the same daily rituals. Bridge goes to work, and Elisabeth stays home. Alone.
A lot of the time he wonders what he had done and where he had gone wrong to lose his wife and have her stray away from their little family. Bridge isn't aware of this, but Elisabeth has nightmares of her father leaving her as well, as mother had already fled. While he refuses to admit it and quite a few people know of the situation that took a turn for the worst, Bridge harnesses rather violent feelings towards the woman he loved now that she had betrayed Elisabeth and himself. Little does he know that one day, he'll have an insatiable urge to leave his home in the middle of the night and wander off to the woods nearby the city. It'll be more than just a simple walk to blow off some pent up, angry feelings...
