AU Plannning for Recolle

Name: Mackenzie Gray
Age: Mid 20s, anywhere from 24-26
Occupation: Intern in some scientific field, probably Chemistry, Biology, or Biochemistry!


Born in Baltimore, Maryland to a fairly ordinary mid-Atlantic family. His father immigrated over to the United States from England to attend one of the colleges and later decided to live there permanently. On his mother's side of the family is a number of people who work at the Port, his mother included.

A straight A student, Mackenzie made strides to enjoy the outdoors but was never good with people. He preferred his solitude on the docks, and never earned much in the way of social grace. His temper is easy to spark but quickly fizzles out and, though he kept few friends, he was amazingly loyal to them all.

His grades earned him a full scholarship, which he used to attend Recolle University for a change in his somewhat monotonous life.

Physically he's fairly healthy. A late bloomer, he's a gawky and lanky sort who can never quite fit into his clothes properly. He enjoyed the outdoors, but he never excelled at any one sport and ultimately preferred watching from the sidelines because his skills were never spectacular. He was more of a bibliophile, and he liked to read while outside overlooking the sea. He suffered no major illnesses, but is somewhat phobic of being in a completely dark area.

For all of his intelligence, he never learned how to cook properly or clean his room properly. His bed is a place to throw books; he sleeps on the sofa.

Probably has an Ex, I would love for him to have family in town. Despite his lack of social skills, he manages to comport himself with a snarky professionalism in his work.
