Born into wealth, Stefhan enjoyed the lavish life of a privileged family in Chicago. He spent many of his younger years in the best schools with the best tutors as many members of his family were quite educated and continued to maintain their German roots. His father made sure he learned German as well as English, and all seemed well for him, until a young woman changed that. Her name was Heather, and at 17, he felt himself falling madly in love with her. She was also from a privileged family and the two became friends with Stefhan wanting more, and after a few ‘close’ moments he was hopeful, but when it came to young love, his plans didn’t turn out as he wished.
Heather was granted admission to Julliard where she could pursue her real passion, learning the art of ballet dancing. When she left Stefhan was shattered and his heart shattered even more when she finally returned to the area to announce her engagement to another man. His love for Heather didn’t die at the moment, if anything, it was enflamed and his passion caused other weaknesses to show. Some of these weaknesses led to the world of alcohol and drugs, which caused him to take a turn for the worse.
And taking that turn led him into the arms of another woman by the name of Alyssa. Alyssa knew he was weak and she found a way to seduce him into a darker world, and when he still pined for his first love, she only became more enraged. Finally, his family discovered all of the dysfunction in his life and they sent him to live with his aunt in Seattle. Fortunately his life started to shift in another direction and his drinking returned to a less harmful level.
Now his studies came first and he settled in to take many elective college classes before deciding on a clear major. During his academic pursuits, he began to study the romantic poets and even started to develop a flare for the written word. He also decided to take some additional dancing classes himself. But then, he discovered technology and started to see the business opportunities in learning networking, computer repair, and Internet marketing. Finally, he managed to earn a MS in Computer Science at SeattleU. Using technology became his greater obsession, but he longed for a change in scenery.
This change in scenery led to him discovering the small, yet mysterious town of Gray Harbor. Even though it is a small community, his goal was to setup a computer business there that also specialized in offering internet service. Perhaps this will be a good marketing move or perhaps he may long to return to the big cities? Time will tell.
grovel, grovel grovel....grovel
A very nice man. I wonder if he wouldn't mind doing some contract work for me? Any time I encounter him, I have nothing but good things to say.
Very unique color of hair. I swore I might have seen some blonde in there at some point. Very friendly lady too. She invited me to the strip club and I'm still asking myself why I haven't been.
I do not take any potential insults against my mother well. I will not forget it.
I don't know what to say. Your work ethic amazes me. Then, I collapsed and you cast everything aside to make sure I did no harm to myself. I may be your boss to the outside world, but now, I am forever in your service.
We are quite the opposite, but it's clear you would be there for me and I for you. You've had things hard but if anyone stabs you in the back, I'll shoot them down in a heartbeat my friend.
A beautiful and intelligent woman. I am glad we have become friends.
A fellow techie but his love seems to be gaming. I need to know more polite people like him.
Gorgeous hair, but I will only know her on a professional level. She does have good skills in web design. Her boyfriend also seems to be quite friendly.
Someone else into technology but on the security end of it. She must have worked hard to secure her name in a unique field of work.
(NPC) hairless bambino kitty that Stefhan loves and adores.
Business: He's got an eye for business, but he is focused on technology, especially internet development and new types of software.
Technology: Speaking of which, his great fixation in life is telecommunications and computers. If a business needs VoIP, he will get it done. If there's an Intranet that needs to be setup, he is the man. Strange thing is, he doesn't look like a typical computer geek.
Poetry: While in college, he studied poetry as an elective, especially from the Romantic period. He also has a bit of a fondness for British literature.
Neatness: He doesn't have any desire to wear grungy or dirty clothes. He can wear jeans, but oddly enough, when he does they're always neatly pressed. Who the heck irons jeans?! He does.
Blondes: While he's no Nazi, blonde women are a weakness for him. He finds women with this color of hair amazingly attractive.
Drugs: In the past he struggled with alcohol and drug addiction. He tries to avoid binge drinking now, though he may have a drink or two at a bar to say the least. However, no alcohol or drugs (outside of caffeine) are allowed in his business and any employee coming to work high or drunk is fired.
The man here is attractive of sorts with a bit of flare for neatness. One of the most notable things is he appears to be groomed well and he stands up straight as if holding a sense of confidence. Light pink lips stretch into a smile that is definitely masculine, and his narrow nose ends beneath a pair of blue eyes well set into his countenance. Surrounding his face one can see blonde hair is pulled back into a neat pony tail. While he may have long hair, he keeps it tied back and groomed very well. He also appears to be in his early 30s, at least at a brief glance.
The suit he wears shows that he definitely have a thing for style and showing off wealth. There are no wrinkles or creases in his outfit anywhere so either he, or someone else, takes the time to press his clothes properly. The outer jacket of his suit also provides a sense of warmth in cooler weather. Upon his right hand is a timepiece that may help him stay organized, but he doesn’t seem to hold any other remarkable jewelry or trinkets outside of that.
