Description
Since I didn't get in, I'll just make some kind of presentation of the character, because he's awesome and there're some infos I didn't include on the app, so it's pretty much a complete profile.
Beware the wall of text! (but I promise it's worth)

*edit* now you can download a full resolution to see the awful details of his face

***

♦ Name ~ Leonardo Charbonneau (spell ~ shar - like in shard / bo / nou)
♦ Nickname ~ Leo, Ébène (for intimates - spell ~ ee / ben)

Ébène means ebony and this pretty much explains the reason it's his nickname. :V

♦ Age ~ 26

♦ Birthday ~ 05/01

♦ Hometown ~ Paris, France

♦ Height ~ 1,85m (approx. 6'1'')

♦ Weight ~ 71kg (approx. 156.2 lbs)

♦ Occupation ~ Photographer (mainly editorial and fashion, but he likes/does any field)

♦ Personality (copy pasta):
He's cheerful yet shy. Reserved, doesn't talk too much about personal things and is very focused on his work. He's a bit hard to approach, but once you get to him, he's a loyal friend. He's reliable and dependable, but it's not good if you make him lose patience (which can be very easy sometimes). But he's usually kind and calm, thought it makes him look more serious than he really is.
He's the kind of guy who makes acid jokes. If you're his close friend and starts to whiny-whine about your mundane problems, he probably will say something mockery that pierces right through your pride but that's outrageously true. But if you really want him to comfort you, he will give his shoulder to cry on anytime.

♦ Likes: Watching the sunset ~ classical/renascentist painters ~ bitter black coffee (he's addicted) ~ his job ~ talking to his mom about life ~ distilled booze (kinda heavy drinker) ~ urban life ~blondies

♦ Dislikes:
~ clingy people (literally, not emotionally - he's not very fond of too much physical contact if there's not a minimal intimacy; but he really doesn't mind emotionally clingy people - actually he likes it, even more if it's someone he's in love with) ~ gossip (even he working at fashion field, he hates gossip magazines of the kind) ~ also he hates paparazzis above anything because he thinks it distorts the image of photographers ~ the use of real leather/fur for fashion ~ to be waken up ~ coffee au lait

♦ Background (as a whole):
Having only his artist mother to raise him (papa passed away when he was just a baby), he became really attached to her. He passed almost all the time around her, while she was doing her paintings.
Life for them was pretty rough because of the lack of clients from time to time, so Leo started helping her at home when he was a little older, taking small jobs such as paperboy or helper at stores.
Since the thing he enjoyed the most were his mom's paintings and wanted to keep all for himself, and since her philosophy is "all art must be shown" she gave him a simple camera so he would stop bothering her take pictures of her paintings.
He then started to really like taking pictures of people because the static expressions he captured in his photos were pretty interesting, so he decided to give it a try.
At the newspaper he worked at the time, he learned with a photographer employee there how to process the photography and some tips and advice about the field itself. He was about 14.
With some expositions his mom helped to happen, he was called by an acquaintance of her to help, so he began as a trainee photographer and got the attention of the guy.
He started winning money with his job and then he finally made his mom's life easier. His dream is to surprise her with a big exposition of her works at the Louvre, though it's a really far away dream.
His romantic life is a mystery, because he rarely talks about it. But let's say he had a few heartbreaking relationships. one of them with a model, and it ended up catastrophically

♦ Additional:

~ He's really passionate about his work, so the few moments you can see him expressing his full emotions is while working. He also carries the camera his mom gave him to every place so he doesn't miss any potential good photo.
~ He never wear anything on his hands, be it rings, wristlets or gloves, even when it's cold, and it's rare to find him without his sleeves folded up. He likes to keep his hands always free (since he's always with the camera). But he "compensates" it wearing rings and feathers on his dreads.
~ He has lobe stretches and they're usually made of wood and his necklaces are made of seeds, because he likes the contrast of the natural with his very urban clothes, plus the feathers.
~ He's rarely with his front dreads not tied up. But then also rarely with all the dreads tied up. Basically, you'll be a fortunate person if you see him with his hair all tied up or totally loosen.
~ To gain his attention romantically you need to be very expressive or he won't pay any attention to you. He doesn't like cold people.
~ He's named Leonardo because of DaVinci. such as the mutant ninja turtle
~ He likes to drink but only accompanied. Drinking solo is for cowboys and he's a gentleman. (whut) He's not very fond of wine, even thought he's french. He prefers beer or strong drinks like vodka or tequila. He's a heavy drinker, but can handle a lot of his liquor (actually that's the reason he's a heavy drinker).
~ He can speak english, but with a very VERY strong french accent. Though he can understand english perfectly, he usually mix english and french words in the same phrase while talking.
~ Though he finds leather and fur appealing and elegant, he's totally against using real animal skin for fashion, so he wouldn't work with a model using this kind of clothes by any means. (even the feathers he uses are fake)
~ His musical preference is not very strict, but he's really more fond of rap/hip hop such as Sir Pathétik ( youtu.be/bsCJgVBIex8 ) and Keny Arkana ( youtu.be/JmTFvckSi0c ), and soul/blues such as Ben Mazué ( youtu.be/urE1HaxKSg4 / youtu.be/zriAamH8zmw ), Alabama Shakes ( youtu.be/Le-3MIBxQTw ) and classics like James Brown, Jimi Hendrix, Ray Charles, Jacksons 5 and all that jazz.
~ Early on his teens he started hitting on parties mostly funky themed. He learned how to dance with some old kick-ass guys that promote the parties, but he's not very confident about his skills, so he rarely dances at the parties now, thought he still enjoys it a lot. (yes, he still is a regular)
~ He has a HUGE tribal tattoo in his left arm (it covers everything from elbow to shoulder). It symbolizes the Eye, the Heart and the Hand, his tools of work and love
