Background: After being driven from his hometown by a torch-wielding mob, Aaron Shattuck found himself at a crossroads in life. Under the assumption that "they let you kill horses in college", he decided to pursue a path of higher education at the "alternative" campus of Hampshire college, which was notable for its acceptance of lowlife scum with no future or connection to reality. Once there, he took up residence in a very small box they continue to assure him is a room, and on very rare occasion has ever left it. After about a year, the self imposed isolation and the sound of the same goddamn U2 song played over and over again finally ate away at whatever semblance of rational thought he ever had, leaving him with the mentality of a wounded animal on psychedelic drugs. He began to have bizarre, horrific fantasies, often depicting characters from various Japanese animated television shows and movies. Painstakingly, he would spend hours trying to transcribe these hideous delusions for posterity, but found the task of producing something at least partially coherent near impossible, until he "employed" the editorial services of a certain Transvestite Gnome. Perhaps he would have spent the rest of his life this way, snug in his own depraved little universe, but as fate would have it, he was to receive a mysterious invitation. Now, like Grendel to Hrothgar’s hall, he comes to the Party. Be afraid. Be very afraid. Fellow Authors, please ask me before you: - Have me abuse wimpy, socially acceptable drugs. What kind of amateur deviant do you take me for? - Have me eaten by a horde of hunger crazed guinea pigs. Once is quite enough, thank you! Fellow Authors, please do not: - Have me turn into some kind of nice, well-adjusted guy. - Free Chippy from my grasp. BONUS PROFILE! ][ Chippy the Transvestite Gnome HAS NOT JOINED THE PARTY. He's in the glove compartment. Name: Chippy the Transvestite Gnome Sex: M Physical Age: 52 (_all_ Gnomes look about 52) True Age: 103 (still fairly young in Gnome years) Also Goes By: Chippy, the Editor Height: 4" Weight: Not much Eyes: Black Hair: White Contact Info: Don't bother trying to contact Chippy the Transvestite Gnome. Primary Goal(s): - To escape the clutches of his tormentor, Aaron. Secondary Goal(s): The Primary Goal's sort of been keeping him busy. Strengths/Abilities: - Can somehow make sense of Aaron's depraved and incoherent ramblings. Or at least is good at faking it. - Must posses a very hardy constitution, when you consider that he's survived this long. Weaknesses/Quirks: - Small and weak. Likes: - Frilly dresses. - Intellectual pursuits. - Long walks in the woods. Dislikes: - Aaron Shattuck. Background: Ostracized from Gnome society due to his alternative lifestyle, Chippy lived a simple life, dedicated to the bolstering of his own intellect, the observance of nature and the wearing of real cute outfits. Unfortunately, one fateful morning hike spelled his doom, as he found himself caught in a crude trap (most likely meant for a squirrel or some other poor little woodland creature), set by a dangerous lunatic know as Aaron Shattuck. Discovering Chippy's skill with the written word (meaning he knew how to spell), Aaron was quick to "employ" the unfortunate Gnome as his editor, keeping him in a bird cage and periodically torturing him for no good reason. Fellow Authors, please SAVE ME! FOR GOD'S SAKE, SAVE ME!
