Introduction
Graham started off life as a Teen Genius and was put through Wizarding School. Traditional training has lent its mark, and so he outwardly favors the Good Old Ways and is absolutely a member of the Genius Book Club. This kind of history always ends up with some form of specialization, and his is language. When combined with the above, he ends up coming off as the Cunning Linguist with the occasional bout of Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness.

What should amount to an Insufferable Genius (and did, for a while) is backed off by a series of losses of the Friendly Target variety: Taking You With Me, Forced To Watch, and an Act of True Love all feature in this vein.

In the end, he's constantly striving to be a Gentleman and a Scholar, and often (by circumstance rather than effort) doubles as Team Dad.

Stereotypes
Humanity Sooner or later, we will all be able to Ascend. But, until then, we have to keep on trying, and keep on bringing along those who are ready.
Werewolf This is what would happen if you took a powerful Verbena and put a Doberman where their Avatar should be. They're vicious, remorseless, and care only about three things: the spirits that feed them, their yard, and their pack.
Vampire These evil beings are the manifestation of the darkest sides of human existence. By their very nature, however, they are dangerous. If the correct opportunity presents itself, eradicate them. You're doing Humanity a favor.
Demon They may have information that can be gained no other way, but the term 'Devil's Bargain' exists for a reason. Avoid them.
Wraith Considering everything the Avatar is capable of, why not, with the proper will, exist beyond the mortal shell? It is unfortunate that this state consumes the Avatar in pain and loss, and stops their entrance to the next lifetime. Releasing them from this purgatory is a mercy, and a service to all Humanity.
Mage We have taken a step toward Ascension, but it is only the first, of a journey of miles.
Sorcerer Humanity is generally governed by inertia. These people have managed to come so close... and then stopped. It is a sad state of affairs, but perhaps they can step forward?
Changeling Yet another of Humanity's uncontrollable subconscious urges given form. They are best avoided if at all possible, as dealing with them in a direct manner is rarely worth the trouble.

Contacts
Aaron: He's either going to be a great ally or a great enemy. Only time will tell.
Alexandra: Trained in as traditional a manner as possible, it would seem. One day, she'll learn.
Alma: There are days I wish I had your energy. Then I realize how much of a curse it is.
Arthur: Every change we make is running to something or away from something. Hopefully he'll learn to do the former.
Aster: Finally! Someone who is more interested in getting things done than in making me hack through their personality with a machete.
Emma: Straightforward, willing to learn, anxious to help. Refreshing.
Ezekiel: I have a feeling we're going to learn a lot from one another.
Kai: Either I caught her on an off day, or she really does blithely ignore stereotypes. Best $37.50 I didn't spend.
Maya: I can't ever take back what happened, so at this point I can just hope to move past it.
Zach: Breaking the Law - Judas Priest

Disclaimer
I enjoy meeting new players and characters, and seeing the many and varied personalities that make up the IC world we live in. I am willing to RP nearly anything, so long as it makes sense for the character.

I am generally averse to direct PvP stories/scenes of a physical sort, although social conflict is awesome, and the stuff of RP (Just ask Zach).

That said... cross-sphere interaction screws with my suspension of disbelief in ways that are nearly irreconcilable. This manifests itself ICly in the form of suspicion of the other spheres (See Stereotypes) and those who are known to interact with them on a regular basis (Just who's side are you -on-, anyway?).
