Edward Gun-Surfer

Edward "Eddie" E. Gun-Surfer, or, as he deems himself through primarily larping, the real, AUTHETIC Edward Legosi Cullen, is the forlorn son of Eric Gun AJHQ and Merriam Surfer, furthermore making him a "resident" of AJHQ (although his actual presence inside the company at any time continues to be questionable.)

Appearance
Like all the vampires in the Twilight series, Edward is described as being impossibly beautiful. At various points in the series, Bella compares him to the mythical Greek god Adonis. His skin is "like marble"—very pale, rock hard, ice cold, and sparkles in the sunlight. She describes his facial features as being perfect and angular—high cheekbones, strong jawline, a straight nose, and…no, that’s not right. Who are we actually talking about, here?

Eddie, physically, is notable for (obviously) sharing qualities from either of his parents. At first, it may seem he more outwardly resembles Merriam, carrying over his father's olive skin and curled, brown hair, albeit with a slightly brighter tone and additional golden highlights. These are traced down into a striped hair extension, held in place by a pair of blue hair clips. Even in his various Lovecube features, Eddie still retains the classic, downright vampiric fangs in addendum to his pale blue robotic mouth. Of course, he also holds two big, bolted cheeks of a dimmer hue on either side of his rounded face, presumably keeping it in place. With all genetics stacked against him he also has horrible eyesight, and supplements it with large, square glasses over his cobalt blue eyes. Physical, he is on their lankier end, with the slightest hunch to his back, in a similar manner to Eric. Additionally, his gray-blue ears and tail are actually attached to his body, functioning as they would in a real animal. His right ear is equipped with a multitude of piercings, while the left has been partially torn to unknown reason.

The primary clothing items Eddie wears start with his shirt, which seems to be a weird bright blue short-sleeved button-up plus t-shirt combination, brought together with the visage of "Happy Bunny", likely saying some sarcastic quip to along with it. His sporty shorts follow a similar color scheme. On top of this, He has a hefty, oversized fur-collar jacket, being primarily overtaken with sides of interchanging green and red, with a few addendums of a blackish blue and various pins for a spice of color. The green sleeve has a grid pattern, while the red resembles a checkered floor. This green and red carries on to his mismatched striped socks, which as underneath his large desaturated blue Doc Marten's boots.

In terms of accessories, Eddie has a pinkish red bandana, which can be worn both backwards and forwards, depending on whether or not he desires to cover a significant portion of his face. This is followed by several other necklaces, including a dim navy ringed choker with yellow studs and a green bead necklace. He continues to carry this trend of beaded jewelry, with it being prominent on both his arms and, strangely enough, his shoes as well. Another feature that Eddie similarly holds is quite a few navy and yellow belts, wrapped along both his waste and, again, his shoes. On top of that, he has pinkish red arm warmers in combination with dark navy fingerless gloves.

To put it shortly, he dresses like 2000s scene kid combined with a shitty Hot Topic flare. Hope this helps!

Known Personality
The juxtaposition of Eric and Merriam be damned, because this man holds enough temerity in his heart to survive even the most aggrandized of misfortunes that fall unto his path. Egotistic and pragmatic (though not having delved into full condescension, he’s a respectable man!), Edward holds a love for the theatrical and loud. His histrionics aren’t for naught, of course! What else but blood and thunder would carry this broken soul through a world of just the same?

One’s meretriciousness can also be their downfall, however. Eddie’s unmannerly conduct has gotten him in trouble with higher-ups aplenty since being granted his free will, both inside the confines of AJHQ and out. Be it banning him from the AJHQ Teen Meet-ups (it wasn’t that serious, you contemptible fools! The Twilight series is well worth his time and argument!) or having his fourth Twitter account reported until he gets shadow-banned for the seventeenth time in the last six weeks, this world and its odious rules seek to force his rights to destitution...such is the curse of a child with bifurcated parents. After all, you should show Eddie a little sympathy. It’s quite burdensome, living in a world as detestable as his own!

Oh, where were we? Ah, yes… the plight of a young Vampwolf. How very not effervescent.

Lore
In the former couples peak of transient, feigned infatuation with one another, the ways to blatantly parade their """young love""" were beginning to run thin. As a result of beyond impulsive decision-making and blind affections, both Eric and Merriam had decided that the next, natural option was the create their very own son. Thus, circa 2014, Edward was born (exceedingly to his own chagrin), promptly allowing his parents to realize they know next to nothing about raising a kid.

Ergo, it was then Eddie's perpetual trainwreck had began to commence. The early years of any child's beginnings were never promised to be of ease. That being said, amidst two men who have the patience equivalent to zero, this process had shown to be increasingly of irritation to them. After around a month of downright incompetent fostering, however, an idea had suddenly struck them. Clearly, since Edward is of robotic descendance as opposed to a human, it couldn't be that big of a deal to quicken the pace of his growth a bit, could it? Hence, a volatile solution was quickly composed. Not as quickly as Edward's youth would soon pass, mind you.

Upon this new rule, the second a barrier arose resembling anything even alike to a challenge in the infantile bot's behavior, Eddie was continuously forced and upgraded into yet another cycle of development, gaining nearly unpalatable surpluses of information at once, periodically to points where he could barely comprehend what he was learning. Month after month, Ed bounced from stage to stage of early childhood as if he was a miserable ping pong ball or some lousy game of The Sims, all the while his parents remain blissfully unware to the detrimental state they maintained to put him through. Finally, following a year of nothing but disorientation, Eric and Merriam give their son the gift of discontinuing this fast-paced horrorshow, assuming that he is, decidedly, a viable enough age to take care of himself in his own terms. From the mere span of 12 months, Edward had gone from a toddler to an antsy tween, now serving the untimely mindset of a ravaged ten year old. ...Well, at least he was able to 100% speedrun the dawn of his own juvenescence!

Before long, it occurred to Edward that he would have no choice but to get by unaided. They were practically required to raise themself throughout the rest of their horrendous, machinery-invoked puberty. A majority essential skills were merely formed through observing AJHQ employees from afar. In spit of everything, Eddie made his attempts to reconcile and further bond with his fathers, only to be met with a chorus of supposed busyness and otherwise. Hearing the occasional chatter of both Eric and Merriam's distinctly influential role on their given company made the two a pure pinnacle of admiration. In Edward's yearning furby eyes, that is.

Throughout his time, begging those in Animal Jam Headquarters for something of value to exchange to Jammart had become as normal of a circumstance as ever, relying on the store for approximately all his necessities, whether it be clothing, proper food, or elsewise. One day, though, Edward had found a new aspiration- all within the Jammart book sale. There resided a topic that they could truly find encroached themself in: Shelves of books pertaining to incessantly violent literature about feral animals. Gaining an exquisite fascination with wolves, he knew the best course of action was to influence his own personality through such graceful creatures.

This obviously means he ran around the Ashlands on all fours, growling at any unfortunate passerby who dared to lay in his path, as well as marking his first "larping" experience. These activities grew in concern, as Eddie eventually began using his "sick features" as a Lovecube to brutally eviscerate any Locus creature that was, comparatively, miniscule and feeble to his own form. Edward proceeded to take advantage of this recently-found skill like any wholly normal average teen in constant craving for approval; by bursting into his father's offices and leaving fresh kills on their doorsteps. While this may have been responded to in total perturbation on Merriam's end, Mr. Gun-AJHQ had punctually leaned in to his son's interest in the "Thrill of the kill, Jammer!", granting Eddie the right of his very own pistol (that of which is still a prized possession to this day!) for the sake of making... less of a mess, to say the least.

Edward, ecstatic from not only receiving a full on present, but a the total heed of his parental figures, despite for the most split of seconds, directed him to inferences that were unsound to a fault. If behavior deemed as troubling is what finally rewarded his longstanding wishes, then a menace is what he would be. Alongside their increasing fixation in the depths of edgy teen novels and dedicated wolf roleplay (now included through the Interweb, in places such as forum sites and iconic video game Wolfhome), Eddie began purposely tormenting fellow AJHQ employees, breaking company property, and generally lashing out in eager attempts for a single taste of his guardians approval.

Predictably, the exact opposite of Edward's expectations came to fruition. Seeing as he began acting like a HUGE little bitch, the higherups had instantaneously reported Edward's cringeass crimes to his parents, whose responses reeked of thorough disappoint, and more plainly, frustration. Instead of concluding that this may or may not have been even somewhat their fault, through some impervious unity it is concluded that the best course of action, intentional or not, it to stray further in their neglect.

With that, in one quick maneuver, Eddies dream for the future are unreservedly crushed. Fallen into the light of a whole new desperation, he tries to ignore his problems by preoccupying himself with an extensive amount of YA Novels. As if the stars aligned in that very moment, Edward had soon found something else to endlessly devote his time to.... The Twilight Saga. Through a combination of events, he became utterly engrossed in various specific internet communities, specially to ramble abt his favorite character of the same namesake; Edward Cullen. I mean, they're basically the same guy!

Concurrently, as they spent their time away online having dedicated furry roleplays and extensive Twilight discourse, Eddie (unknowingly, in fact,) appeared to escalate in their tumultuous personality. Many of staged deeds that had gotten them into such a position in the first place progressively befitted their own character. He embraced the complexion of a standoffish recluse, unable to reflect on the most reprehensible, nevertheless inherited aspects of his demeanor, for reason you can probably guess from this entire lore section.

So there Edward was, snapping at random internet users for having even the slightest of differing opinions of the Cullen family while watching average at best furry anime....

Then everything changed when he discovered a classic, age old construct.

KINNING.

For once in Edward's life, as he scrolled through a bountiful of sketchy blogs and other websites detailing the experience, everything in his life had, at LONG LAST, made sense. No wonder he had spent night after night staring at ceiling, weeping over how badly he wished Carlisle was his dad. For ages he had longed for a relationship, a girlfriend like Bella Swan or Haru Beastars. It's because he was never Edward F. Gun in the first place. He is, honest to fucking bigfoot, the real, AUTHENTIC Edward Legosi Cullen. The proof had piled in amounts too conspicuous to deny any longer. By that remark, what was formerly just basic resentment towards his dads inevitably had reached it's boiling point, formulating then bursting into full out hatred due to "lying" about his unquestionable past.

Under this narrative, Eddie's obligation to larping thrived stronger than ever, taking on his new Vampwolf verity with a passion he hadn't felt in ages, usually to brood or look "super badass" in Ashlands, as per usual. Plus, who could go wrong with shooting at shit with little to not rhyme or reason? Even with a capacious bulk of kindrama and call out threads for his vicious behavior towards others in an analogous clique, being a legitimate lone (vamp)wolf had never brought him more joy. If only he wasn't still banned from AJHQ's teenage meetups.

.....Mental Illness, Jammer!
