Name: Dante Thorne
Age: 27
Gender: Male
Pronouns: He/him
Sexuality: bisexual
Appearance: 5'9, slightly overweight, kind of a dad bod. Light complexion. He has dark brown, slightly curly dark brown hair that's usually unkempt and has a few gray streaks, light brown eyes, and wears half-rimmed glasses. Always looks in need of sleep. Almost always wears button-ups, ranging from Hawaiian shirts to plaid flannel. Jeans. No one has ever seen his legs. He has his ears pierced, and usually wears silvery studs. Seems older than he actually is.
Personality: So, so tired. Someone help this poor man. But he also has a great sense of humor and gets along great with his students. He's also kind, passionate, and helpful, and gives the best advice. Doesn't hesitate on writing student recommendations, even if he knows they weren't the best student because he believes everyone deserves at least a chance. Hopeless romantic. Big introvert.
Likes: Coffee (someone help him, he has a problem), tea, cooking, cats (especially cats with silly names), his students
Dislikes: Parties, crowds, waking up in the morning, having to deal with other adults who don't act like adults :)
Fears: Dying alone, Losing his family, messing up royally and having to stop teaching
Prejudices: Idk, nothing too notable. Dante strikes me as an "eat the rich" kind of guy.
Conditions: Depression, insomnia, nearsightedness
Identifiable traits: He has some tattoos, but they're usually hidden. Also his streaks of gray hair are pretty unique for someone so young.
Backstory: Not very notable childhood. Pretty normal, happy upbringing in a low middle class family. Became a tired dad in college and has never looked back. Somehow he ended up as an English and History teacher at the high school. Dante is an enigma to his students, and most of his coworkers, though. Just an all-around weird dude, and no one knows why he is the way he is. Even he doesn't really know. He will say stuff like "my wife took __ in the divorce," though he's never even been married. Also has a #1 Dad mug that a former student gave to him, and when asked if he's a father, he usually responds with a shrug and, "I'm not a dad, but I am a daddy." (Irl quote from one of my high school teachers, so I apologize but it seems in character-)
Extra info: Has three cats; black cat named Grimalkin, orange tabby named Mac n Cheese (but he just calls him Mac most of the time), and a tuxedo named Comrade. Secretly working on a novel.
