[presto]  bret von dehl harlot twenty musician heterosexual perpetually single quinn [/presto] | STANDARD APPLICATION LIKES & DISLIKES alcohol, drugs, girls, cigarettes, piercings, tattoos, parties, music, knives, his daughterbeing sober, his ex, people, being cold, scratched sunglasses, little dogs, chick flicks, insects, swimming STRENGTHS & WEAKNESS intuitive, confident, charming, intelligent, ambitiousstubborn, blunt, careless, good liar, distant ASPIRATIONS & FEARS to live his life to the fullest, to gain full custody of his daughter, to find phoenixto lose his daughter, to die alone, drowning PERSONALITY the first thing that people who know griffin ward would say about him is that he lacks a filter. he is not afraid to tell you what is on his mind, and he isn't afraid to let you know he doesn't like you. his bluntness can get him into trouble but he can definitely back it up if he needs to. he is stubborn and hates being told what to do, which frequently leads to him doing the exact opposite of what people say just to spite them. griffin can be a very cold and calloused person, keeping almost everybody at arms distance due to the negative things he has experienced in his past. he is manipulative and dishonest, trying to keep the odds in his favor at all costs. his love of the forbidden dance has turned him somewhat into an addict. frequently feeling the need to be right but also being incredibly cynical, he can be a little repulsive to most people unless he's putting on an act to charm his way into some unsuspecting girl's pants. the light in his life is his little daughter and the potential of finding his brother again after being separated.HISTORY abandonment is a frequent theme in griffin's life. his dad abandoned the family when griffin was just a baby, and the wards later learned that he had died in a car accident. his mom was a drug addict and, after running out of money to use for her addictions, she saw a new use for her two sons. it's a time in his life he has tried to block out, but usually he ends up sitting awake at night with a cigarette in his shaking hands. the abuse he suffered from his mom and the trauma from what she made griffin and phoenix do so she could get her fix has left wounds he fears will never heal. he was nine years old when someone suspected something was wrong, and griffin was taken away by child services. foster home after foster home, he dealt with further abandonment until he finally closed himself off from the hope of ever finding a stable home. he had heard phoenix had been taken out of their birth giver's home and was living with their grandma, but griffin didn't even know where to start that search. he had only seen his grandma a handful of times throughout his life, and she had always come to see them. all he wanted was to be with his big brother again, but instead he was stuck going in and out of foster homes. when he was sixteen, he finally found a permanent home with a very average family that just wanted to help him; but griffin was past the point of being fixed. he was already selling drugs, not even aware of the parallel his life was making to his brother's, and had dropped out of high school. he spent a lot of time in trouble, his foster parents claiming he was grounded - an idea lost on the young man who only cared about his drug deals, parties, and sex. he felt worthless and unwanted unless he was having sex. being in a band was a perfect cover for his drug deals and sex, plus it put him right in the middle of the music scene that he loves so much. his band gained popularity and he was gifted with groupies, and one stood out among the others. he dated her for awhile and she wound up getting pregnant, resulting in their daughter ellianna. the relationship ended shortly before ellianna's birth, which upset griffin's newly anointed ex-girlfriend. she refused him custody and told him it wasn't worth fighting since she would do whatever it took to keep their daughter away from him. rare visits showed that, though he may not be headed down the right path, he is a good father to his baby girl. moving a few towns away to arcadia to be closer to his daughter, he thinks he may've found a lead to finally being reunited with his brother.Family lily ward, mother, 46derek ward, father, deceased phoenix ward, brother, 23 ellianna ward, daughter, 1 LOVE LIFE love is a four letter word he only says to his baby girl as he has never felt it for anyone other than her and his brother. it's a concept lost on him and he doubts it exists; there is only attraction. he has been in one relationship with his ex, which was an open relationship, but his flings and sexual partners have been numerous. |
