The Guardians
Guardian: Vince Finn
Gender: Male
Age: 27
Species: Human
Occupation: Construction worker and part time janitor
::Appearance:: Skin: Slightly tanned
Hair: Dirty blond
Eyes: Brown
Height: 6’0”
Other: He’s got a few scars on him from various accidents through his life. During Figs baby years, and sometimes during childhood, he lets his chin get a bit stubbly (for purposes of letting Figs rub it, or to annoy him by rubbing it in his face as a child).
: razz ersonality::Vince Finnis is kind of clumsy and sort of gruff. He’s not easy to approach, and usually has a grimace of varying degrees on his face when he’s not in the company of close friends, or family. He says he’d love to get along better, but really he does it to himself. Gruff is what he acts like because he has this thing with being ‘manly’ and anything not manly is sissy. Sissy is just about his favorite word, you’d find once you got to know him (He can come off as a bit of a jerk sometimes).
He does have something of a temper, but he won’t yell, usually. He will however sulk and pout, and have a beer and swear at you a little. Not a lot manages to tick him off, but one thing that hands down would set him off is a ‘better than you’ attitude. For the most part he likes to pretend that his job doesn’t really bother him, but deep down it does niggle a little bit if only because he can’t give Figs those cool toys he wished he had as a kid. He tends to be a bit stubborn when interacting with other people, but folds as fast as a napkin in things that ‘don’t matter’ concerning Figs.
Vince really does feel like the last person to be a father figure. He’s not particularly patient, and he feels acutely clumsy when it comes to children. He’s pretty crass and he knows it. So he tries to make up for feeling like a failure of a parent by coddling him whenever opportunity knocks.
::History::Vince’s history is nothing particularly interesting. He had a normal childhood, played sports, got into fights and got failing grades. Nothing exciting. Vince did however drop out of college after deciding he wanted to be a wrestler. But since his parents stopped supporting him, he decided to take on a temp job to support himself in the mean time. His temp job became permanent before he knew it, but he’s happy enough and works as a janitor for a school when he needs a little extra. His older sister helps him out financially.
He did have a serious relationship once, but he’d rather not talk about it.
Likes: Rock music, tv, using his weights, Figs, cooking (don’t tell), wrestling, when his hair is in a perfect state of disarray, dancing (in his underwear... while wearing sunglasses... and a hat)
Dislikes: Having to discipline Figs, being yelled at by neighbors, instant food/frozen dinners, small places (claustrophobic)
::Other Family::
Name: Kathrine Finn
Relation: Kathrine is Vince's older sister. She works as a pediatrician, and often helps Vince pay for his apartment bills. She’s not really Figs favorite person, since she’s just not as fun as Vince or their other brother Caine. She’s kind, but in a soppy kind of way. Her idea of fun is playing the Kiki version of Candyland.
Name: Caine Finn
Relation: He’s Vince’s little brother, who’s still currently in college. He’s Vince’s first choice in babysitting because, even though he loves her to death, he knows she’s about as fun as... something not entertaining. Caine’s big on taking Figs places where he can scream a lot in an open area. He’s the irresponsible uncle who’ll take your kid to an amusement park and see nothing wrong when his kid punches someone else in the face (it’s all in good fun. And the blood will clot eventually).
