Champion, year 269AC

General

  • PCAG Star Athlete
    • Two-time grand Champion -- though this may be revoked.
  • Protege' of Sente Kiteway, who was also his academic adviser
  • Received the Beaumont Scholarship for Excellence from Sente
  • Resides in Ascendancy Point, L141 R20, overlooking the Mazy River.
  • Honored on 11 April for exceptional community service, received key to the city from Council Leader Camryn Scott in a ceremony at Polygon Park

      • Helping to organize fund-raisers for research into cognitive disorders
  • In the gossip world: beginning in AUG-05, he has been cropping up courting Joya.
    • Supposedly, they are "just close friends".
    • 12-DEC-05, the two were spotted having a bit of a tiff.
    • He came to visit Joya just a few hours before Allegra Melody was born.
    • He revealed that his relationship with Joya could only be platonic, because of his sexual orientation


I wonder at the View from Earth column of last week that accuses Perplex City of being intolerant of same-gender sexual preference. I, for one, have never felt that my individual rights limited by my sexuality; though it is amusing to note that the Sentinel and other press want me to be romantically involved with Joya, despite the fact that this is not historically in my nature.

At any rate, I assure the concerned people of Earth that there is no concerted effort to obliterate same-gender romances, nor any effort at all. Though we do appreciate the sentiment, I suppose.
