PERSONALITY:
George is a real sweetheart. He trys not to get into trouble, kind of merges into the back ground. The only thing he gets noticed for is his sometimes eccentric way of dressing. It's a cross between an old man and well a heavy metal follower. The shirts with band names written over them, then slacks and the old farmers cap. Weird combination, but he likes it. His shy nature allows him to creep past unseen and unheard. If directly spoken to, his face flushes a bright scarlet. You could say he's almost painfully shy. But there is always a reason, right? It'll be explained.

Get to know him and you shall see what a good friend he can be. His kind eyes show that he could do no harm. He makes a loyal friend, not the one who can easily stick up for you but he will try. He doesn't do very well under pressure. He breaks and has a panic attack, making decisions can also do this to him. Being so shy has made him an excellent target for bullies because he wouldn't fight back either. He would rather run away and bury his nose in a book, wrapping himself up in an imaginary world to escape.

He has always been a dreamer. Ambitions to travel the world, earn a degree. But, he's also not the brightest crayon in the box. He has to try really hard in school to keep ahead, and sometimes he's found panicking that he will fail. He has a fear of failing and it's evident. He tries way to hard, pushing himself to limits that could really hurt him some day.

Relationships is something George doesn't do. He doesn't really know how to talk to a girl, the whole shy thing, and gets really flustered if one even attempts to converse with him. He's not the hottest guy around, he'll be the first to admit that, but he's got that kind of cute look. If you like that sort of nerdy thing.

Lying. Lying is something George is extremely bad at. "Where is your homework?" "It's.. It's.. My do- I'M SORRY, I FORGOT IT!" He just can't do it. The truth just bursts out of him.

FAMILY:
MOTHER: Rosie Andrews. 45 years old. George and Rosie have a beautiful relationship. The pair would do anything for each other and she is the only person he does not feel self conscious around. Many things have happened in Georges life, she was the only person to care about them.

FATHER: Johnathan Andrews. 48 years old. There is an extremely strained relationship between George and his father. His father looked down on him because Georges brother was better than George at everything, except riding. His father tried to apply so much pressure onto George as a youngster, that the boy just exploded. He became so stressed out that he had to be hospitalized. His father was not sorry at all, just decided to ignore the boy and focus all his time on Georges brother.

BROTHER: Benjamin Andrews. 19 years old. They hate each other. The only way you could explain the relationship. Ben would gloat and gloat about his achievements to George, and then when the both took up riding and George took to it so naturally. Ben was envious and then made life hell for his younger sibling. George suffered many a beatings from his brother, and they will never really get on.

BEST FRIEND: Taylor Robins. 17 years old. She and George have been best friends since they were six years of age. She is the more outgoing of the pair, by far, and sticks up for George with a vengeance. The pair are pretty inseparable, and she often comes to America to visit him, since he moved away three years ago.

HISTORY:
As a youngster growing up in Liverpool, life was hard. Being shy also didn't help. At four years old, he entered nursery (Kindergarten to you lovely Americans) and suffered two painful years in school. He didn't make any friends until he turned six. Taylor entered his life and the pair have now been best friends for 11 years. Bullies rarely challenged George after he turned 13 because Taylor had set them straight. But there was always the one who would take advantage of his natural kind and shy personality. School wasn't the best for him. His brother beat him in everything and life sucked. His father forced him to join sport clubs he really didn't want to and allowed himself to be injured so he could get out of it. Then riding entered his life, the one sport he loved.

When he turned 11, his brother began to frequently beat him up. George just took it, no fighting back and no telling his parents because he knew what would happen. His mother would ask, "Where did you get that bruise?" George would mumble his replies that varied from "I fell over." to "Me and Taylor were play fighting, she accidentaly kneed me." It seemed to satisfy her. Then, when he turned twelve, he was attacked by the neighbors German Shepherd. Two people had seen it. His brother and his friend. They had just stood there, laughing. Eventually, George was able to wrestle the dog from him. He ran inside, blood flowing from his face and tears mixing with them. His mother had been so shocked, she nearly fainted. His father just grunted and muttered something about manning up.

At fourteen, his grades began to slip. He was stressing out so much, going home to his father screaming and shouting about it. George stopped eating, stopped drinking and stopped leaving his room. He studied continuously and eventually just collapsed. He was rushed to hospital and stayed there for three months until he was healthy. It took him longer than it should have because of his constant worrying about school. The only person that helped him get through it was Taylor. She convinced him to get better.

Shortly after coming out of hospital, his father decided they were moving to America. He has been in New Jersey for three years, and now decided he didn't want to be with his family anymore so decided to go to boarding school. Now, here he is.

His riding experience is pretty good. He used riding to escape from the horror's of home and finds the gentle movements and soft noises that a horse makes comforting. He has been riding for a little over ten years and enjoys jumping, cross country or show, but has never, ever compete. The whole "pressure" thing. He's happy to just ride for pleasure.

Accepted! (my new charrie is from New Jersey too! So they have some in common!)

UPDATE

George has finally decided to buy a dog after much deliberation to try and concur his fear. The canine has been carefully selected, and he has decided on a female Greyhound named Fizz. She is a sweet natured canine, whom wouldn't hurt a fly. Her hobbies consist of Sleeping, eating, going for a walk, and then sleeping once more. She's a laid back, quiet dog who rarely barks or plays up. Now, at six, she has been off the track for three years. Before she had been living in Ireland, with a breeder and racer who was well respected as he treated all his dogs well. Fizz was retired after she suffered a break in her leg, and instead of having her put to sleep, the man payed for it to be fixed and then sent her to America to be with a family member whom had been out there. That family member had since passed away and George saw the picture of her online. She surprisingly, already has found a way into his heart. Although he is still wary of her, she'll be what he needs to get over that fear.

FIZZ
