Description New year, new OCs to introduce! He's one of the main characters in the webcomic I've been thinking of making called Nathaniel's Notebook (It was originally called There Be Ghosties, but then I changed it to that ;;v;; ) So here's some info on him.

"A Smiling Pessimist" 
Name: Robin Briggs
Gender: Male
Age: 16
Height: 5'6''
Hobbies: Talking, Playing games with others (mostly with Carolynne, another OC), Memorizing/doing random shit he finds on the internet, teasing/picking on others (a very old and bad habit he's been trying to stop), volunteering at the senior citizen home (mostly because Carolynne wanted him to volunteer with her, and he just sees it as another reason to hang out with her. Plus he honestly doesn't have anything better to do)
Personality: very social, sees the worst in any situation, always happy, brutally honest, easily gets lonely, reluctant to do many things, rather lazy, easily bored so he does lots of strange things to preoccupy his mind, kind at heart

Fun Facts: 
- has been childhood friends with Carolynne since he was 11 years old
- memorized every word in the french dictionary cause he was extremely bored and home alone a majority if his childhood (also won a french spelling bee because of this)
- taught himself how to use echolocation by clapping his hands (really he can only tell if there is something in front of him) taught himself this cause he saw a documentary about bats and wanted to be literal batman when he was a kid, also because he was was home alone and bored allotttt
-used to bully many people in order to fit in (sadly into the wrong crowd) basically had a poor choice of friends when he was younger
-drove a garbage truck off a bridge (it was a group effort)
-Mr. Rodgers is one of his favorite shows
-Carolynne knit him that beanie

I have just realized that Robin is one of the characters with a more colorful background in this webcomic. XD

Of course I am! >v< I actually drew up a couple small comics with him in it, but I'm waiting until I finish up everyone else's reference sheet as a way to introduce everyone. XD

its definitely weird to hear someone has the same name as you (im nathaniel btw) and read a description of them and find out that you are almost the same person

Aww, It's okay. But man what a coincidence! Also kinda weird to meet someone with the same name as your character XD (which reminds me, I gotta get Nathaniel's reference sheet finished ;;v; But tbh Nathaniel is probably the complete opposite of Robin XD He's extremely shy and socially awkward.

well, nathaniel could be the other half of the "nate coin" (i go by nate) shy, withdrawn, awkward, strange? pours his soul into his art, carries a sketchbook around all day? thats the side of me most people would know anyways. depending on who nathaniel is, robin would be the idealist in me, the one who defeated his fear, but recognizes his regret, who knows all he has to do is jump and he'll get across, but is worried about where he'll jump to

Yeah, tbh Robin is the character that Nathaniel certainly strives to be like through out the series (well also Carolynne, but I haven't finished her character sheet yet ;;v; But yeah, Nathaniel's fears are certainly his inner conflicts (especially his fear of losing friends)

I really like this character! He seems interesting. I love that he's a happy pessimist, and his background about being alone most of his childhood and the stuff it led him to doing.
Maybe with some help, he can become the person Mr. Rodgers knows he could be.

Awwww thank you! >v< I'm so happy that you like him!!!    AND IT MAKES ME SO HAPPY THAT YOU FIND DIFFERENT LITTLE PARTS OF HIS CHARACTER INTERESTING! ;;;v;;; Deep down in his hearts he wants to be everybody's neighbor ;;;v;;;
