User:William Gray

Description
William is a Eurasian otter and is exactly 5' 6" tall with dusky brown fur coloration, his ears are really not that large compared to most other otters and his hands and feet, like all otters, are webbed but still retain their dexterity. He has a rather long, strong tapering tail which usually drags along behing him just a few inches off the floor, he also has whiskers(AKA a mustache) which he never seems to trim in any way and are thusly rather long, his eyes are dark brown and are not, in any way, what so ever reflective of any past experiences. Just on the bottom of his chin, almost on his throat there's a white mark that looks like an ink splash if anything and is one of the only ways to tell him apart from his rather large family.

He wears a leather coat, beneath which a gray-blue uniform(oddly similar to real world RAF pilots uniform) was visible, He is 29 years old but the childlish grin that seems to always be present on his makes him appear to be barely twenty years old if one did not know him very well. He also regularly wears any sort of hat that will cover up his head, feeling like if though he was bald since his species doesn't have the long flowing mane that most pilots do.

Weapons
His only weapon is a beat up Vis pistol that he got as a parting gift from his older brother John(deceased), it only has four rounds left and he hasn't bother to buy anymore since whatever the next target of it is, he knows it will only take one bullet.

Callsign
Due to his mark he was often reffered to as "Inky" by neighbors and a few other people who never remembered his name, though due to his uncanny ability to get in trouble and the consitency at which he manage it "Soupy" was more commonly used by his family. Nowadays calling him either of these means getting a back hand or being hang from the edge of the skyland.

Primary
His primary, and sole plane, is Atlas which is a Seafire that's taken a beaten and then some. Though he manages to keep it in as close to top shape as possible. It's a bit larger then most Seafires, with large guns instead of medium sized ones and a much larger cargo hold. Originally this plane belong to yet another member of his family who no longer had any used for it and gave it to him. He has never once used it to land on the sea.

Character Background
He was born into a bearely middle class family, comprise of 9 uncles and 10 aunts, 3 brothers and 3 sisters. He is pretty much the middle child as far as he can tell, though he was born just before the youngest one, since last he checked a few of his sibling had passed away some way or another so that he's the middle remaining one at least. During his early childhood, he developed a fondness for getting into trouble, escpecially if it meant picking on the opposite gender which lead him, and anyone that happened to be around him into trouble, though by the age of 14 he stopped picking on women spefically he was still pretty much a rascal and whenever something went missing, or something particularly odd happen his name was the first mentioned.

By the age of 17 he started calming down a bit, decided he wanted to try for bigger things in life other then working petty jobs around where he lived and went to live with his uncle Fortunato, who besides teaching him a few minors skills and little of fixing planes he news, also taught him how to play the pipe organ which he doesn't do so well other then repeat the patterns he obsserved with, at best, moderet acuracy. Later years he went on to bearily graduate from flight school since his flirtatious ways towards girls and aloof personality regarding school work being the primary reason, but after wards he managed to reach Fuseli, figure the recruitment lady was hot enough and joined in, where he reached a high rank before deciding that their goal and his didn't really work together, and his position didn't help him fullfill his dreams so he quit. On his way back to Echo though, there had been a pirate over take of it and he was thusly grounded, his plane was blown to bits early but he managed to sneak around undected with the help of some of the citizens of the skyland, long story short he ended up a temporary guest of two middle class women whom he respects deeply for their valour, after getting his uncles plane into the sky he was never seen again for quite some time.

The origins of his altruist beleifs are said to had risen from watching his older brothers and most of his family always help eachother no matter what, and the same went for their friends and such.

Character Personality
William is cheerfull, passionate about some things and manages to keep a very damn good impression of bein sociable despite his territorial otter insticts, but deep inside he feels he does better with Nyrick then with most other people for reasons that are not yet clear. One way he manages to keep the crowds low around him is by going after pretty much any female that seems attractive and exclaiming, "Helloooooo nurse!" Followed by, somtimes, purposly failed pick up lines, for males he basically pokes fun at random things of them untill they keep away from his comfort zone. But despite being highly, and perhaps oddly too, altruistic William will never jump into anyone's fight, his motto towards it is "If you could pick it, you can take it" but he'll likely jump in if you really need it, or if he feels you did not pick it but towards other things like needing food, water, supplies, medicines,etc. he will be the first to volunteer even if you did not ask him too, regardless of who or what you are to him.

Notable Crew
Nyrick: He is a very mysterious mouse, his very name strikes fear into the hearts of things that are smaller then him. He does not talk since feral mice rarely do, and despite being seen as a pet by most, this dastardly mice has burrowed his way into Will's heart and he thusly treats him as a assistant and very close friend. He was once a lab mouse back when tiny, brown mice where favored over white ones and was trained some pretty basic things before he escaped and stowed away on Will's plane, where he ate all his supplies of nuts. He does not like cheese, and will jump at anyone and proceed to bite all around at queue from Will(not really but the otter likes to think so, so let him have his dream).
