I'VE GOT A PLAN: I'M GONNA FIND YOU AT THE END

QUENTIN SMITH. insomniac, field medic, dream warrior


HISTORY
. attacked and pursued by dream demon Freddy Kreuger along with friends and classmates
. attempted to kill Freddy with last remaining survivor Nancy Holbrook
. left Springwood after failed attempt led to Nancy’s institutionalization, looking for a way to get rid of Freddy for good
. cherry-picked out of his homeworld by the Entity to engage in life-or-death trials for eternity (unless...?)

APPEARANCE
. 23 years old (or vague early 20s, time is weird in the Fog)
. dark blonde hair worn short-to-medium length, dull brown eyes with aggressive shadows, pale skin usually tilting towards a sickly pallor.
. 5’10” and wiry, knobbly around the joints and soft in between. not strong, but will fight you.
. old, healed cutting scars over his right-side hip, outside thigh, and inside thigh above the knees. older but uglier healed scars across his left shoulder and chest, four knives. five stabbing scars through the left side of his chest, three exit wounds on his back.
. jeans, sneakers, and t-shirt/flannel or hoodie combo. accessory boy: beanie, something tied around his wrist for fiddling with (leather cuff, string, actual bracelet, depends on the day), leather necklace with sacred heart and crucifix charms.

PERSONALITY
. loyalty: you couldn’t ask for a better dog. quentin needs people around him to keep his gears turning, and he’ll do just about anything for his loved ones. as a general rule, he tries to act in the best interest of whatever group he’s running with.
. idealism: he has high standards for humanity and is prone to disappointment and sometimes disdain when people (especially authority figures) don’t live up.
. sensitivity: his eye for weakness, soft spots, and pain points allows him to better support his friends–and to better attack his enemies.
. resourcefulness: quentin also has an eye for scavenging and creative solutions, with the sleight of hand to back it up. much practiced in department stores as a middle schooler.
. fixation: when he gets a scent, he won’t let it go. his interests border on and indeed tip into obsession. he can be a great researcher or student when the mood strikes, just make sure to get him food and water and remind him to go to the bathroom.
. rage: a “still waters run deep” situation. quentin bottles up plenty in the interest of keeping things calm, shoving it down where it can ferment and fume until it explodes.
. recklessness: in the height of danger or stress, he tends to forego taking care of himself in the interest of accomplishing something extraordinary for the team. sometimes this pays off, and sometimes it leads to him getting hurt for acting stupid. he doesn’t put very high value on his health.

OOC PREFS / WARNINGS / INFO
. romance/sex: yes, yes, yes. demiromantic pansexual, but as a man growing up in the 00s, quentin wouldn’t claim any label. he’s more inclined to saying shit like “I like whatever”.
. injury/death: i am begging and pleading with you to hurt (anytime) and kill him (with discussion)
. content warnings: Quentin’s full backstory includes childhood sexual abuse and repressed memories. His core canons feature body horror and gore and stalking, plus most other horror flavors you can think of. Tags may include references to any of the above, plus non-suicidal self harm, substance abuse, suicidal ideation, and unreliable memory. Feel free to opt out here.
