A neutron walked into a bar and asked, "How much for a drink?" The bartender replied, "For you, no charge."
Name: Dimitri Gikas
Nickname: Dimi, Four-eyes, Nerd
Age: 20
Birthday: 2nd February
Sign: Aquarius
Gemstone: Aquamarine
Blood Type: A
Fav. Food: Cabbage and beans
Hated Food: Porridge
School: Sovereign Heights Prep School
Hobbies:
Physics
Dimitri just loves physics. It's his thing, his area of expertise. It's his 'major' and is the focus of his prep school years, until he takes the plunge into university. Without a doubt he will mention it in conversation sooner or later and there's a high likelihood that he'll make a physics joke only he will chuckle at. Dimi just likes knowing how things work. He likes knowing there are set rules in place that can't be broken... or so he thinks.
Chess
Vice-captain of the local Chess Club, Dimitri loves that age-old game of pawns, white knights and black queens. He does make an effort to always play on the white side, imagining himself as the grand commander of an army, sent to wipe the world of evil. But for the most part, he just really enjoys sitting with friends, pitting his mind against there's and sending his troops down the most logical course. Winning is all about thinking ahead, he always says.
Multi-shipping
Dimitri watches a lot of shows in his spare time, and while that is a particular hobby of his, his biggest hobby is 'multi-shipping'. He will happily pair characters from here there and everywhere up, posting his thoughts on his own Tumblr. Thor and Harry Potter are currently his favorite pairing and he has been trying to convince his online friends to write fanfiction for him. He'd do it himself, but creative writing was never his strong point.
Virtues:
Dedicated
When Dimitri finds something important in his life or just something he loves, he is the most loyal, dedicated guy around. From an early age he knew he loved physics and he has studied it endlessly ever since. There is little anyone can do to change his mind about something once he'd made a decision on how he feels (unless some really good facts are presented). He is a man capable of great devotion.
White Knight
So he's kinda spindly and nerdy and he can't 'sport' to save himself, but Dimitri is a fighter for justice, a defender of the innocent, a white knight of truth! If someone is being bullied in the corner, he won't walk past. He'll stand a confront evil when he sees it. If a little old lady needs help crossing the road, he'll be there to hold her hand. Dimitri likes to do good things and he has always lived with the ideal of being a 'white knight' for all. He believes that as long as you try hard to do the best for everyone, you'll always be content with in yourself. Of course, Dimi is and always will be a logical guy and he won't put his life on the line. In really serious situations, he'll stand back, yell a bit and call the police.
Logical
"There is a logical explanation for this." - The universe has rules that it has to abide by and Dimitri is well-versed in them. The world around him is always logical. There is an explanation to everything. Dimitri is good at putting his great mind to work and will reason in a clear, consistent manner until the cows come home. He's a thinker that relies on facts and wont deal in conjecture.
Flaws:
Insecure
While he often comes across as nerdy-confident, Dimitri, like many others, is really quite insecure. He is very aware of his shortcomings. He knows he's not the handsome football player with heaps of friends and a gorgeous girlfriend. In fact, he's fairly sure he'll die a virgin and he'll certainly never find a life partner. No matter how smart he is, Dimitri worries that it's not enough. This insecurity feeds his anxieties and causes him to worry endlessly about the smallest things.
Know-It-All
And you're all sitting around having a great time, talking about something highly interesting when the guy at the next table leans over and says, "actually that's incorrect. The hyena does not just scavenge, it is quite a prolific hunter and it is the lion that steals most of their kills". Thank you for that pointless piece of information, you reply. Yes, Dimitri will correct you if you have one small fact wrong. He thinks he's doing you a favour and doesn't realize how annoying it can be.
Prone to Theatrics
'It's the end of the world, my psych paper is due tomorrow and I've only done twelve pages! I'm never going to get into college this way! I'm a disgrace! A failure!" - Yes, he is that guy who overreacts to everything. If something goes even slightly wrong, he will have a panic attack. His penchant for making every little thing into a huge drama is not appreciated by his family, who mostly ignore him when he gets into a tizzy. |
