Occupation: Pizza Delivery/Pot dealer ~ Wally goes into work on night mainly, and delivers pizza. However if there's a specail delivery, with special toppings, it's code for a deal. He'll drive up to his customer's place, and not only deliver the pizzas, but the ganj as well. Hey...it pays the bills...and it's just pot...he doesn't slang drugs.
{{ The Cupid }}How do they feel: Inheiriting his gift during the heart of puberty was not easy for Wally, but as time went on, his gift grew, and so did he. Now Wally loves his gift. He learned to embrace it, and make it his own.
{{ The Painting }}Celebrity Face: Shia Labeouf
Hair: Wally has the kind of thick, curly brown hair that everyone just wants to mess up, and ruffle with their hands. He likes to leave it short, but not to the point to where you see his actual scalp. A couple inches longer than usual never hurt anybody. He does not spend too much time with it either. He's the type of guy that looks at it in the mirror, shrugs, and heads for the door. Despite his lack of grooming in the morning, his hair always seems to fix itself and pull off a casual look.
Eyes: Wally's eyes can change depending on his mood, and the weather around him. On a sunny afternoon, and a cheery mood, his eyes are a sparkling green and can show his emotions quite easily. However, in a bad mood, and in a dim-lit enviroment, his eyes are a dark brown with a hidden green accent on the outside of his iris.
Height: An average 5'10"
Body Shape: Wally is prodominently average. He is of average height, and is neither fat or skinny. He isn't too muscular either, but is in excellent health, and has excellent muscle tone. He stays in shape by skateboarding around the city of Chicago...it's the best way to travel.
Clothing: Wally is always uuber casual. Even if he has to sport a suit, and tie....the tie will be loose, and the suit will be something unordinary and unique. He's always been that way. In middle school he used to have a mohawk. He has since left those punk days behind him, and has now found a more chic look. On a day to day basis, your most likely to catch him in a pair of ripped, or torn loose jeans, a shirt sporting one of his favorite bands, an old pair of chucks he's had since he was in high school, and his grand father's vest. Wally loves that vest. It's his favorite piece of clothing he owns. Wally's favorite giddup, includes his favorite baggy jeans, his tye-died peace sign shirt, and his prized vest.
Other: Wally is neither too dark, or too light when it comes to his skin tone. He is right in the middle. His mother is naturally light skinned, but because Wally spends so much time outside doing his own thing, he's become slightly darker than he normally would be.
Wally has a 5 inch vertical scar on his right calf, on the back of his leg. From a very bad skate boarding accident, He was young, drunk, high, and thought it'd be smart to jump a gap his friends had made on top of a local conveniece store.. It was about a fifty foot drop, and his femur ripped out of his flesh when he hit the concrete. His mother told him that his scar actually gave him more character. He wears shorts every now and then sometimes, but is kind of self-conscience about it.
The only "jewelry" he wears (besides his inheirited Cupid Ring) is a hand woven red and white bracelet that has a peace symbol on it. He does have his ears pierced, but took his studs out awhile back. He recently got his first tattoo on the back side of his right wrist. Its black written font in latin and says, "Love conquers All." (Amor Vincit Omnia)
{{ The Person }}Overall Personality: Wally is a very cool cat. He's always chill, and never really freaks out...unless theres a demon throwing fireballs at him...then he freaks out. But when thats not happening he just chills, and listens to whats going on around him..
Wally always gives someone the benefit of the doubt...unless they are a demon, in which case he flees. When meeting someone he will always use his humor as a charming way to get to know someone. He doesn't like drama, so there for he never really starts any. He is a lover, not a fighter, and even when times can get heated between a loved one, he will never leave with anyone who feels broken hearted. He always likes to leave on a good note with everyone...except for demons.
Wally comes off very mysterious. He's the type of person that will sit in a corner at a party and do his own thing. He also likes his mary jane. He almost always has two fatties in the pocket of his vest ready to be smoked. The smoking actually helps him with his matchmaking. It calms him down when he's doing his thing.
Strengths:\\ Wally is a great listener. He can be a talker too, but prefers to hear other people talk.
\\ He can rock a board. He loves skating, and is quite good at it.
\\ He has a huge heart...naturally....the cupid thing helps, but he really does. unless they're a demon, he will always try to find the good in someone...and sometimes even when they are demons. He just loves to love, and never expects it in return.
\\ Wally is a very loyal and trustworthy friend. You can always confide in him, because he does not have a mouth. He will die for his friends, even if its someone he just met and befriended.
\\ There is a comedian trppaed inside of him, just dying to escape. He is such a charmer, and uses his humor to schmooze.
Weaknesses:// Is impatient. A habit he picked up from his father. He cant help it sometimes, he tries to play it cool, but sometimes he's just itchin for that cross walk to turn green, or the groom to say "I do."
// He is very lustful. Now he isn't a sex-ohlic, but he does think about it from time to time. And being the charmer that he is, he doesn't need to use his powers to get what he wants. However, he also does not screw anyone over, or leave anyone feeling used after they've had their fun.
// Another weakness for Wally is the super green. He can't put down the pipe to say the least. He's been a huge toker for years, and is unfortunately dependent on it.
// Wally can't swim very well. He always has been bad at it. Sometimes when he's even in ankle foot water, he gets paranoid. No ones ever taught him how, and he's certainly too scared to try by himself.
// He's very clumsy....and he skateboards on top of that too! He's ok when he's boarding around...but when he's on foot, or carrying something fragile...it doesn't really turn out too well for him.
Likes:+ Music is something that always perks him up. He loves listening to his Ipod when crusing around.
+ Being a cupid, he obviously likes love, and setting people up. It makes him feel all warm and squishy inside to see people in love.
+ Jungle gyms, and playgrounds. He likes to go to those places at night. Smoke a fatty and just look at the starry night sky while thinking about love, and the world.
+ The movies is something that always gets him excited. He loves going, even sometimes by himself to catch a new flick...and not only that, but thats a great place to match people up, and seal the deal.
+ Wally loves animals. He grew up in a zoo practically. His mother had a plethora of animals when he was just a youngin.
Dislikes:- Wally hates ignorance, and denial. Especially when it comes to love. He hates how some people can be cruel and nasty everyday and then not realize it. So in general...wally hates "hate" itself, and all forms of it. Too much of it can literally kill him.
- He dislikes hookers. He does not hate them for that is impossible on his part, but he does pity them. He tries every now and then to use his cupid powers to help change their lives around.
- He also dislikes warlocks, and demons. Anti-cupids are his least favorite though. Its evil people like that, that make the world such a terrbile place, when it really isn't.
- He cannot stand large amounts of water. It can freak him out. but only cause he can't swim. Now if he's not right on the edge, and its a great view, he'll be ok with it...but let's just say that Niagra Falls really ain't somewhere he wants to Honeymoon.
- He really cannot stand the sport of Baseball. It's so lame, and boring for him. All the other sports are just that more exciting than baseball. He thinks the sport is stupid, and would be much cooler if fatal weapons were used instead of bats, and balls....Ok not really, but it would be funny in a movie.
Habits:* He always has to have his jeans over his shoes. He can't stand it if his shoe tongues are sticking out over the ends of his jeans. So he will check out his shoes, and bottoms of his jeans to make sure his shoe/jean ratio is at par.
* He bites his fingernails alot. Whether he's nervous or bored, he's bound to bite them clean off.
* Wally has a horrible smoking problem. If he can't afford the pot, he'll buy a pack of cigs to hold him over for a bit.
Favorite Color: Purple, Black, Green, and Red. He likes them all.
Favorite Food: He loves supreme pizza. Mmm pizza.
Least Favorite Food: Fish, the smell makes him sick.
{{ The Emotion }}Sexuality: Bisexual...he's all about the love, man.
Loves:>> Acts of random kindness will always make him attracted to someone.
>> Eye contact shows him that you really care, and he loves it.
>> A nice back rub always gets him in the mood....as does gentle kisses.
Hates:<< Men and women who are vein, and only care about looks.
<< Braggers, and show offs...unless it was an insanely awesome skate board trick.
<< Guys with long hair...its cool with girls, but the long hair on guys just reminds him of some really bad 80's music video.
{{ The History }}Hometown: San Francisco, born and raised.
Alliance: Good, with the occasional evil thought that is mearly nothing more than just a thought.
Family: Eugene De'Philo (Father) Eugene is an excellent father, and always has been to Wally. He is just a hair shorter than 6', and currently is balding. He use to have thick brown hair like his son, but started to lose it when he hit 50. Eugene is a newpaper editor for the San Franciso Times, and has been there for over 20 years. Eugene and Wally always had a great, but interesting relationship. He tried to get his son into sports, but all Wally wanted to do was skate. So they learned to work around that, and Eugene has always been very supportive in anything Wally does.
Agnes De'Philo (Mother) Agnes was quite the free spirit when she was younger. She was a huge hippee and took lots of LSD. Now she is a tad bit stricter, but still knows how to have a good time. She's a short, 5'3" woman, with brown and gray hair. She has never dyed or gotten highlights done. She believes in keeping everything the way it was intended. She was a great mother to her son, and misses him dearly ever since he left for Chicago. When he was little she use to tell him everything about the Magic world around him. She instilled him with optimism, and hope...and knew eventually he would be the next cupid in the family.
History: Homer De'Philo was the first American Cupid of his family. He came to San Francisco in 1920, when he was just a boy. He is like the spit image of the Father from My Big Fat Greek Wedding, or at least that's what Wally has heard his entire life. His Grandfather, Homer always use to tell Wally where there family came from. In Greece the Family was known as Philomenos, which among the Greek religion is rumored to be realted to the Goddess of Love, Aphrodite herself. Philomenos were a very big, and important Cupid family in Greece, but when War broke out, they were forced to immigrate to America to seek shelter.
The recently Late Homer was a Cupid for over 75 years. He put together many couples including that of his son's, Eugene, with Wally's mother, Agnes. They met on a trolley car, both who were running late for work. Agnes was rushing to to car when she suddenly tripped on it's first step. Fortunately for her, Eugene was there to catch her. Both immediately felt a connection and decided to pursue a relationship. The two had been seeing each other for well over a year when the relationship grew sour. Homer did what he did well, and fixed the relationship in a jiffy. Nine special months later the two were wed, and Wally was born. Homer expressed to his son, and daughter in-law that he wanted Wally to take over where he may leave off. The couple agreed, and for the next 18 years they instilled as much love as they could into young Wally.
Throughout his entire childhood Wally was told, and kept fully aware of what he was, and what he would become. He was told all about the Magic world. His Grand poppa, Homer used to read him scary stories at night about Demons, and warlocks. Even though it may have frightened the poor kid a bit, it indeed alerted him of the unseen dangers in this world.
Wally was the type of kid who you'd seeing sporting a Mohawk through the halls of his elementary school and middle school. As nice as he was, he was still quite weird. The weirdness followed Wally through High School, where he was your typical emo, punk ass kid. He still sported the the Mohawk till his senior year. After his grandfather passed he shaved off his do for the funeral. He put away the skateboard and threw the punk/goth music in his closet.
When Homer passed, it was a very sad day for everyone. Wally was just a 17 year old punk skater kid, who was uuber emo, and had no idea how to handle it. The next morning though he received a package from his late grand poppa. His parents made him open it immediately, and put the family ring on. The next year was nothing but a confused and emotional time for Wally. He had no idea he'd have such powers that came with the ring. He practiced his powers on his friends...all of which relationships only lasted but a few months...but that's High School for ya. Once he graduated from High School Wally felt competent enough to move far away from his family, and try this Cupid thing on his own. He had grown from a stupid emo skater boy to an intelligent, and casual young man.
Now you find Wally in his early 20's; much more fluent with his powers, than he once was; living in the city of Chicago. If you see him around, he's bound to be sparking up some love....or just plain old skate boarding.
