Full Name: Emmanuel Dubois [dü-'bwä]
Honorifics/Nicknames: Em (preferred), Emmy, M.E., Eman', 'Manuel, Manny, "Quick-mitt Em", "Spiky-butt", "Spiky-beaver-face", "Fluffy boss", "pencil-chewer", "that bore/boar" (often used by Nellie), "that pesky rodent", and "Kirisawa's prank".
Gender: Boar
Age: 35
Birthday: December 22 (Capricorn)
Height: 5'9"
Weight: 146~151 lbs
Species: North American porcupine
Eye color: Brown
Fur color: Dusty tan
Hair color: Dirty blonde
Markings: None
Alignment: Chaotic Good
General Appearance: You might think that a porcupine must be plump, but Emmanuel is very thin, yet masculine in build. Typical clothes consist of boot-cut jeans, work boots, flannel shirt, or a worn jacket. He has A LOT of hair, going from his head, down his back, and to the tail, which is equipped with quills, of course. He ties his hair back when he works but it still has a poofy, teased appearance.
Cyberization: None
Vernacular: Originally, he spoke in a thick Southern Appalachian dialect. He's learned to drop the drawl almost completely for the sake of being more credible and for finding a job. He still has a light, regional accent, barely noticeable to the average person. How much of his accent he uses depends on the situation and whom he's talking to (it comes back when he's in an emotional state, drunk, or in familiar company).
Personality: Emmanuel is usually, if unprovoked, carefree and relaxed (though being on the Harbinger – in space – makes him tense sometimes), a fun-loving entertainer who loves joking and drinking (but loses self-control when too drunk). Can be a little bit shy, especially when he is the center of attention; is unceremonious and unpretentious, can't stand lies and deceit. And he is a hard worker, putting all his heart into whatever he undertakes. On the other hand, he's obsessive - some would even say obsessive compulsive in his love for machinery and his work. He's prone to jealousy, is more likely to have an emotional attachment to an object than to a person, and tends to treat loved ones like his own personal belongings. He is undoubtedly emotional – inclined to fits of panic, rage, passion, etc. A bad mix of his qualities can make him a dangerous person, but a good mix can make him a caring and dependable friend. On the whole, he aims to enjoy life and have a good time.
History: It's all in my head! XD
Field(s) of expertise: Engineering/Mechanical
Pastimes: Tearing it up on his b- wait, forget that. Drinking. Oiling, fixing, and polishing his machinery, and mulling over new designs in engineering.
Habits: Tapping fingers, usually when nervous or thinking. Gnawing on pencils while working on designs (he keeps a lot of pencils because of this). Singing in the shower, popping tranquilizer pills for his phobia... and he's a sleep-talker.
Phobias: Heights, flying in airplanes/aircraft of any kind.
Favorites:
Color: Orange
Music: Bluegrass, Blues, and Rock.
Songs: Foggy Mountain Breakdown
