Full name: David (Davey) Anthony Passaro - Marchand
D.O.B: November 20, 1992
Age: 14
Year: 10
Family background:
Davey was born David Anthony Passaro in Rochester, New York on November 20th. When he was three years old his father died, leaving the family buried under funeral costs and with no help in sight for all the bills. His mother worked full time, leaving Davey under the watchful eye of a neighbor, the mother of his best friend Jade.
A few years later at a company picnic, Davey’s mother met the son of the company’s president, who she was working as the secretary for. They became fast friends, and then a year later they started dating.
He quickly grew to love Davey and his mother both, and within two years had married Davey’s mom and adopted Davey as his own son, becoming the father figure Davey had desperately needed. Davey took on his surname for his own, adding the Marchand to the end of what he already had.
While his home like wasn’t to miserable, his school life was a completely different story. He was picked on cruelly and constantly. Davey was often called malicious names and pushed around, on several occasions if the other student’s thought they could get away with it they’d beat him. Their reasoning? They thought he was gay. At this point in Davey’s life, though, he wasn’t thinking overly much about sex or girlfriends very much at all, let alone boyfriends and if he was gay or not.
Davey was, however, a very good writer and poet. He was incredibly good at expressing himself in the written word. He wore eyeliner most of the time, but always dressed in baggier clothing with band t’s, nothing effeminate in that at all. He loved music, went to the local punk and rock concerts with his friends nearly every weekend where he was part of the mosh pit and acquired bruises he was actually proud of.
During the week after school his friends and him would head to the local skate park and sometimes he would join them and skateboard, but most of the time he was sitting under a tree and writing. At fourteen him and his friends got together and decided to make a band, with Davey writing and singing the lyrics. The band actually sucked pretty badly to begin with, but they practiced persistently and, as could be expected, they started improving.
A couple of months after that Davey was cornered while walking home from a concert they’d see with his friend, Jade. The both were seriously beaten and had an extended stay in a hospital. Davey’s stepfather finally put his foot down and decided it was time he sent Davey to a different school, one that he had attended and loved. He felt it was be better for Davey’s education and would help him get a fresh start.
Davey was devastated, not wanting to leave behind all his friends and his floundering band, but the other members promised they’d still be there when he graduated and returned, because they weren’t a band without Davey’s lyrics and vocals.
His best friend, Jade, was distraught, though. He didn’t want to lose Davey so he applied for a scholarship to Sheraton Academy, as his family couldn’t afford to just send him, as much as they would love to get him into such a prestigious school. Davey and Jade had to sorrowfully say their goodbyes as Davey boarded a plane for England, Davey really hopes Jade makes it into the scholarship program.
Looks:
Davey naturally has a dark brown hair color, but he dyes it black. He has brown eyes, and more of an effeminate facial structure. He has thinner lips that are pierced on the far right side, high cheekbones, gaged ears, and a devil lock. He's 5'5", but still has some growing to do. He’s getting his arms tattooed, it started in New York, but he’s searching for someone in London to finish it for him.
Variations on the uniform:
He’s pretty good at wearing the uniform correctly, if a bit sloppily on occasion.
Personality:
Davey is a very nice person, very caring. He loves to make everyone feel welcome and he’s very outgoing. He loves to meet new people and make new friends. Anyone who gives him a chance generally loves him in return, but he’s used to a lot of people making assumptions on who he is based on how he looks.
He does have a darker side, a bit more depressed and angry than he lets on, but he likes to keep that tucked away for himself, he looses those emotions in his writing and his singing or in the middle of a concert while banging up against others bodies and losing himself to the music.
Most of the time he manages to keep those emotions from everyone, but once in a while, as with anyone, they can break free. It’s usually only when Davey has gone to longer with to little sleep. Davey’s an undiagnosed insomniac, but he doesn’t see a doctor for it because most of the time it’s not bad enough for it to even be worth it. It’s only every once in a while and he just chooses to ignore it because he knows they would prescribe him something and Davey wouldn’t take medicine, not even Tylenol, to save his life.
Davey is also very protective of his friends and has been known to throw himself into tight situations on their behalf. He’s also, on occasion gotten himself in trouble because he hates to see other people getting picked on. Even if he doesn’t know them, he’ll try to help. He just thinks its so very wrong, and he knows he’s not the best fighter out there, but he’ll do what it takes to help.
Other points of interest:
*Davey hates to be called David.
*He calls himself Davey Hovok, with a ‘K’, not a ‘C’. It’s his stage name and just generally what he goes by instead of Passaro or Marchand.
*Davey is Straight Edge. He’s very firm and vocal in his beliefs and looks disdainfully on people who do drugs, though mostly just the illegal kind. He’s not so harsh about prescribed medicine. He does avoid any place he knows people are drinking, though, and asks what friends he has that do drink and do drugs that they don’t do it near him and he definitely hates it when they talk about their conquests in front of him. He believes strongly about respecting one’s body. Sex, drugs, and alcohol are just stupid.
*Davey is a vegan; he won’t touch anything that has anything animal in it. He won’t even wear clothes from an animal and he wont wash his hair with anything tested on animals.
He’s very careful about researching anything new so he makes sure he isn’t breaking his beliefs.
