And here we go....
-Personality- Edgar is irritable, sardonic and passive-aggressive. He will usually make no attempt to hide his cynicism and misanthropic attitude. As much contempt as he holds for the world around him, he holds as much contempt for himself, seeing as he has extremely low self-esteem. He's just as neurotic as his twin. Unlike his twin, he's a complete coward and would rather avoid situations that are just plain risky. He suffers from obsessive-compulsive disorder, which particularly stems from a need to keep things tidy, but most from his mysophobia (fear of germs). He's also easily disgusted.
Despite his unfriendly nature, he is extremely loyal to the few individuals that he lets get close to him and will sometimes show a caring side towards them that seemingly belies his antagonistic exterior. He shares Alister's Catholic faith, but is definitely not as forceful or upfront about it, preferring to keep to himself.
He's also intelligent. His intelligence is more grounded in reality and practicality.
-Background- Edgar was born to the same family as Alister (HOLY SHIT! What a stupidly obvious fact to point out). As a child, nothing really extraordinary happened. He was usually left alone by his other siblings, since even as a child he kept to himself. The only sibling who really interacted with him a lot was Kelsey, his older sister, who mostly tried to play with him because she felt as though he needed a play companion. When Edgar and Alister were 8-years-old, both he and Alister were up on the roof of their family's shed. Alister instigated a kind of playful wrestling fight which started to get out of hand, as both of them got caught up in the moment and somewhat forgot where they were. Edgar ended up falling off, which seriously messed up his lower back, causing the chronic back pain that would plague him throughout the rest of his life (this is something that he will still blame Alister for from time to time). As he grew up, he preformed well in school, although he usually kept his grades and academic activity to himself. His father encouraged him to get involved in athletics during high school, the idea being that maybe Edgar would be able to make a few friends and the exercise would help relieve his back pain. Edgar was a rather mediocre athlete and while he did make acquaintances with his fellow athletes, he didn't really make any friends. The athletics did help with his back pain, though, so he stuck with them. Like with Alister, Edgar's parents worried about him with his lack of social activity. They were rather thrilled when they had found out that Edgar did have a crush on a girl in high school (which might've meant that he was finally opening up to people). Unfortunately this girl was a rebellious brat. In a pathetic attempt to impress her, Edgar picked up smoking cigarettes. His parents found out and forced him to quit. He later came to his senses and realized how stupid he was being about his infatuation. The rest of high school went on as normal and he graduated and went to college. Parents died. After this he went into a state of apathetic depression which caused him to mostly mope about. He stopped exercising, and his back pain came back, which caused him to lie about even more. He started to put on weight and picked up smoking again, this time cigars. He then had to move into the apartment with Alister, which kind of forced him to snap out of his depressive funk.
-Misc. Facts...
1.) Likes reading about negative reviews about books, movies, etc.
2.) He loves cooking and baking.
3.) He can't dance at all.
4.) He has a Southern US accent. Like Alister he grew up most of his life in Mississippi.
5.) He suffers from non-ulcer dyspepsia (which is basically indigestion that seems to stem from a functional disorder rather than from any particular problem).
6.) Favorite food- any type of seafood/ Least favorite food- greasy hamburgers.
7.) Pocketwatch was his father's.
8.) Despises babies and children.
