Birth Date: December 22nd

Skills/Talents:
Silver Tongue: Colin is a sweet talker, always has been. Started when he would visit his great grangran at the nursing home. He’d wander off and his parents would find him charming all the residents who never got any visitors. He’s always quick to compliment (respectfully) and can always think of something nice to say about someone.
Poker Face: The thing about defaulting to being nice to people, is more often than not you have to lie through your teeth about some things. Colin is a bold, prodigious, and some might even say innovative liar. It really does come to him as easily as breathing. His mother was fond of saying he was so full of malarkey his eyes were brown.
Sky Above, Voice Within: Meditation is a core aspect of Colin’s routine. Learned at the largest Buddhist monetary in America, in the Hudson valley; Chuang Yen Monastery taught Colin a lot about self-control of his emotions and regulating himself mentally. A skill his friends and family were deeply…deeply relieved when he learned.
I Know a Guy: Colin maintains a rather unorthodox rolodex. He has connections to several industries, the connection between them and him not readily apparent at all times though mostly it boils down to having met them at a cocktail mixer or been apart of the same online forum back in the day. Colin listens to people and makes a mental note of their skills, and perhaps more importantly; keep them on good terms.
Backpack Contents:
- Essentials for modern living; Phone, Keys, Wallet, etc
- His tablet E-Reader filled with a hodgepodge of random books, magazines, PDFs, comics, you name it.
- Premium cigarettes and vintage lighter
Digivice:
Personality: Gregarious and fun loving to a fault. No seriously it’s a huge problem sometimes, he tries to be friendly at the worst of times. But Colin believes there’s a nobility to that, that even at the worst of times everyone deserves a bit of joy in their lives, and he’s not afraid to provide that joy even at the cost of his dignity or comfort.
Colin is also fascinated by the unique and the novel. If something tickles his brain as interesting, he will usually go down that rabbit hole to see where it leads, being particularly interested in various subcultures and their unique aesthetics.
Kindness and compassion sit at the heart of Colin’s intent. He spent a lot of time in New York volunteering at a homeless shelter. The infliction of unnecessary suffering is probably the fastest way to break through the incredibly thick layer of good humor and find the chip on his shoulder.

Appearance:
Standing at a lanky height Colin stands tall above most in his new home. The man seems to be constantly in motion in some capacity, tapping his fingers, rocking back and forth to an unheard rhythm, or shaking his leg beneath the table. Even in sleep Colin tosses and turns frequently twitching and muttering under his breath.
As far as outfits go he generally wears suits, but rather then wearing the modern vogue he tends to favor “vintage” outfits, the louder the better. It's also not uncommon to find him with a cigarette resting between his lips.

Personal History:
Growing up in Hell’s Kitchen you see the best of humanity and the worst of humanity. From an early age Colin’s parents enforced a sense of civic duty and social activism in Colin. He grew up going to rallies, volunteering his time, and working for the common good. But no matter how many people he helped it felt like the world was only getting worse as he aged.
As he grew into his teens, he saw how his parent’s choices left them with very little in the way of financial resources. He realized that he would have to provide for them as well. So rather then go into the field of social work and activism he entered the world of business. Quickly excelling due to his excellent people skills.
Soon, Colin found himself working for a major soft drink corporation, you’ve probably heard of it. Thanks to this soulless success Colin has been able to provide his parents with the comfort they deserve in their twilight years. Confident that his parents are safe he requested a transfer to Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan. Why? Why not!
He has been working in the Shibuya office for a couple months and is greatly struggling to pick up the language, though he did look up Baka-San and got a good chuckle out of his office nickname.
