****Whoops, Xing has two face colors, not just one o_o;; Tongue ring is now colored in too.

One of three entries I hope to finish for ~Mochizuki's create-a-mate contest (lol, yeah, guess where I got the idea for my own contest xD)

As per requirement:

Full Name: Benjamin Steele

Nicknames: Ben, Benji, Benny -to close friends-, Mr. ADHD

(Current) Age: 21

Sexual Orientation: Hetero (he lieks dem laydees xD)

Gender: Male

Likes: Spontaneity, french toast, the letter Q, and his guitar

Dislikes: Libraries, walnuts, tofu, ur mom

Fears: Being paralyzed from the neck down, being hated, and big-arse bugs

Fav. Color: Turquoise [but he likes a lot of colors]

Fav. Food: Baklava

Future plans: Doesn't really know, but he wants to be in the Guinness Book of World Records at some point

Family/Siblings: Mom, dad, and an older sister

Past: Not much of one. He was a hyperactive little child (though many beg to differ, he really doesn't have ADHD X3), a rebellious little teenager, and...well, just a strange guy. His parents had him playing the cello when he was younger, but it really wasn't for him. So he started playing the guitar when he was 11, and attempted to form a band at one point, but that didn't work out so hot. He also tried to get in with OFL, but they just thought he was a strange little bugger (and they filed a restraining order). But despite that, he's still all laughs and smiles, haha.

Personality: First-impression Ben is...relatively normal. If he's just meeting someone, he tries to tone down the craziness. However, once you really get to know him...he's just a little cornball xD He gets pretty insane sometimes, dancing around like an idiot and yelling random phrases in public, etc, etc. But he's really a nice guy; he's always trying to help people and pick em up when they're down. And I mean, how many of you have boyfriends that would haul there huge-ace amp over to your yard and play...blast you a song on their gueetar in the middle of the night? Not many, I'm sure lawl

How they met: (Assuming XingXing drives) She hit him...Yes, she ran over him with her car while he was doing something stupid in the middle of the road (His life philosophy is, "I don't stop for traffic; it stops for me." ) I'll leave you to think of what ensued thereafter xD

Unique Traits:
-His guitar is named 'Q-pi' (Kyoo-pee)
-He is not allowed to have coffee...at all
-He often changed the color of his bang-strip (but, seeing as how Xing's fav. color is lime green, I thought it was fitting, haha)
-He has a tongue piercing
-Fishnets=win
-He was voted 'Most likely to fit in in an asylum' in high school [lawl, I'll stop now]
------------------------
Now for some crap about the picture!

I'd have to say Benji is my fav out of the characters I've designed for this contest xD It was Ryker's girlfriend, but once I figured out Ben's personality, I 'd him. Sorry for the overall crappy background...But..dodge/burn tool, I love you, lawl. And XingXing is supposed to be leaning out of a window...Of course, knowing my luck, I bet she really lives in an apartment on the 50th floor or something. -She just broke into someone's house and conveniently enough, Ben was there to play his guitar! *face/desk* - Sooner or later, I'm gonna have to learn how to draw a guitar. They seem to keep showing up in my art. Oh yeah, in case anyone was wondering...I don't know what species he is; all I know is that his tail curls up like a husky's (I guess?).
