Character Name: Dyme (Demyx)
Series: Kingdom Hearts
Age: 24
Physical Description: Thin and lanky, though not very tall. He has big hands that are very experienced in the ways of instruments--the tips of his fingers are callused from playing guitar, but the rest of his hands lack the scars and roughness attained from hard labor. He's poor, but not a hard worker. His blonde hair is short and he hates having it long because it gets too hard to manage, due to it's unruly nature. His pale skin is speckled with freckles, mostly on his arms and across his nose. He sunburns easily and hates wearing long sleeves, hats, long pants, or shoes.

Personality: Dyme is a victim of laziness and is either seen sitting alone in shop squares strumming on his guitar, or pedaling furiously on his bike after he suddenly remembered he was late for one of the few engagements he had. This sort of behavior makes it hard for him to meet any women who will put up with him, but seeing as how his only love is music, he doesn't mind so much. To him, everything can be solved with music--angry? Go pound out a killer rythem on some trashcan lids! Sad? Go play a blue-sy piano ballad. Happy as a dog with a bone? Go sing about it!

He tends to hide away in his music and block out his problems, since depression stifles his creativity and being happy is so much more fun, anyway~ He's a musical genius and plays the harmonica, guitar, and piano very well, despite recieving no formal lessons (and he can hum a pretty damn good tune out on a kazoo, too). His scratchy, tenor voice is unique but appealing to those who've heard him sing.

Strengths: Musical and lyrical genius, very upbeat and friendly to everyone

Weaknesses: Unmotivated, freeloader, substitutes fantasy for reality at times, unable to do anything but mope when he's depressed

History: Dyme was the youngest-born in a family of two brothers and one sister with a very loving mother and father who owned a local hat shop that managed to keep them above the red, but only barely. His sister worked inside the shop alongside his parents, and the eldest brother, Charlie, went to school. Dyme idolized him, and Charlie supported his budding music talent. The two were very close, and Charlie would let Dyme glance at his studies if Dyme would play songs for his older brother.

Charlie was the family's pride and joy, the ladies that came in the shop always used to say. Pride and joy, until one day, Charlie left for school and never came back. He'd heard his mother say something about a 'kidnapping' and 'sweatshop' when he'd overheard a conversation between his parents, but never understood the terms.

The loss of his brother made Dyme sink into a pit of despair, and he found himself doing less and less to help around the house and shop, until finally he only found himself strumming listlessly at his guitar, which had three broken strings. Dyme never noticed.

Charlie's still only missing, mother would say, maybe he'll come back!

Dyme accepted this, just to give himself a flicker of hope he'd lost. He regained his happy disposition but always had a dark, brooding underside to his personality, even though he didn't notice it. Eventually, he floated from shop square to square, strumming songs he wrote at random and improvising melodies as he hummed along with the chords. People eventually started to notice and he'd get tips from time to time, bringing his 'earnings' home to his mother.
