Basic Information

[/b][/color] Thomas Henri Shaw (ala Doctor Gangle)
Age: 33 ((when in doubt choose 33 is my rule ))
Canon or OC?: Canon - Aussie cast of LND DVD release
[/ul]

Appearance

[/b][/color] 6ft 7" (6ft 11" with the hair))
Body type: Very tall, though most his height comes from his legs which make him seem rather gangly, however there's an odd type of grace to his movements... almost like a spider.
Eye color: Dark Brown - however when he has his makeup on the dark surroundings make them appear black
Wardrobe: Tail coats and top hats of varying colours. When he wears red the tail coat has golden braid across the front, almost military style. His top hat is red as well. Black is much simpler, though with the only splash of colour being a wine red cravat.
General Appearance: Freakishly tall as some might say he is certainly one of few who manages to tower over the Phantom, and most the rest of the characters in his world - other than the clowns on stilts that is. However when they're not on stilts you can guarantee he does indeed tower over them as well. Normally seen fully white faced apart from black marking around his eyes which end in a point below them - same on both sides.

This type of makeup however has left its marks on his skin, leaving his skin lined and pale. While when he wears it, it works to disguise his age, without it he looks older than his age.
Played By: Vince Dean or something? Or Dean Vince... one of those two

Personality

[/b][/color] As a rule the reaction you get depends solely on who you may be. As one of the trio who act as the eyes and ears for Mister Y he can often seem to be quiet - despite his role as the Master of Ceremonies. Of course should he be on the stage and directing the shows he is rather capable of being a showman, and can even take the center stage at times. He is also a slight leader among the trio, even if he will act as a mother hen at the same time protective over the three of them - even more over Fleck.

Among those who are visiting the show he's always been a showman. Directing the shows, and listening and observing his surroundings. Often announcing each act in the main stage, Doctor Gangle also occasionally served as one of the points of call for the freaks working among the crowds.
Dreams and Goals: To own a library with the goal of filling it with numerous books
Strengths: Very adept at faking an accent (Normally German), Loyalty (Once he counts you as worthy of his loyalty and trust he will give it you), Observant (While he may not always talk he is rather observant and sometimes notices small things about an environment other people won't)
Weaknesses: His height - being so tall he is prone to developing various bone problems, which could eventually risk crippling him
Protective nature - Because of his innate protectiveness over those he calls friends he could easily be caught up in defending those he feels loyal or protective to.
Illiteracy - While this is something that has improved he's still having some problems with this.
Fears: Failing those he considers his friend - having been someone who hasn't always had a lot of friends its one of his fears, to fail those who he counts as such.
Blindness - In part because of his observant nature, and in part because of his love of books while he may not fear death, he fears going blind.

The Past

[/b][/color] (include parents (if it didn't say in canon if you have a canon character, make them up or explain why you don't list them) any other notable family members, and close friends)
History: (Give a detailed history of your characters past. If they had little of one, make one up! Keep the integrity of the character intact.)

RP Sample

This is where you would put your sample of your writing. This should be in the character you're applying for, NOT as a post from another site.
