Character Biography
1. Joe Vidor
2. The Caveman
3. Male
4. 19 years old.
12. Joe's home life was pretty boring and stable. Both his parents worked and they had a decent income. When Joe was 12, his parents divorced and he was forced to split time between their houses. His parents were fine, they did take care of him, but for the most part stayed out of his life and let him be. Joe has one older brother, the two of them are almost complete opposites when it comes to many aspects of their lives. They fought excessively until they were about 13 and 16 years old, now they get along just fine, but still don't talk very often.
13. Joe went through elementary, middle and high school with no troubles at all. He excelled at academics but never really got involved with any extra-curricular activities or sports. Joe applied to 5 colleges and was accepted to all of them, even with his lack of extra-curriculars or interests. Joe is doing pretty well in college, has a 3.3 GPA and for the most part never struggles, though some classes do present him with quite the challenge.
14. Joe likes his parents and sibling. He wishes them no ill-will and does care about them. However, he still won't call them, almost ever. He is not exactly attached to them, nor is he to anyone. If his parents or brother call him, they will have a 2 to 20 minute conversation, depending on how long it has been since they last talked, with 3+ weeks being 20 minutes and 5 days being 2-8 minutes.
15. A collection of Christmas eve/ morning memories from when Joe was about 10-16 are the best of his childhood memories. He can't really remember a whole lot about his childhood, as nothing particularly good stands out.
16. Joe's worst childhood memory was coming back to his dad's house after half a week at his mother's to find his aging cat dead on the floor. For a few seconds he just thought he was sleeping, but soon the reality took hold.
17. Joe lives on a college campus, in a fair sized building. He has a single room and doesn't really interact with the others on his floor all that often.
18. Joe goes to college, he studies mathematics and languages for the most part.
19. Joe is taking 18 credits this semester, an increase from last year's 16, and the two extra credit hours are providing him with quite a bit more school work than he is accustomed to. It is a good thing he doesn't keep a job during the school year as he probably wouldn't have a whole lot of time to fit in both school work and job work and still have a minimal amount of time to himself. His schedule is a bit hectic and he doesn't get much of a break during the week.
20. Joe is pretty indifferent to most people. He doesn't not get along with anyone, but this even-ness means that his doesn't really have a clique and no close group of friends. Joe sees his classmates, they are his classmates, he goes to class with them. Over the course of a semester, Joe will get 'closer' to one to three/four of them.
21. Joe has no idea what others think about him. He doesn't ask, they don't tell, for the most part. A few of the people that know Joe better than most say he is hilarious, but Joe usually disagrees with this.
22. Joe has no place in the community. He leads no one, he follows no one. He is alone. Historically, Joe has not been a member of any clubs, but recently he has decided to join one, as it is based on a topic he is actually interested in. Joe is a registered Democrat and extreme atheist.
23. Joe does not have a significant other. He doesn't even have an other.
24. There aren't very many important people in Joe's life, he could count them on one hand, with the extended edition requiring two hands. His parents, his brother, a select few other relatives, and one or two people he knew from years ago. Joe doesn't really have a best friend, but there's about 3 people who could vie for this spot, if he actually spent any time with them. He has no mentors but does respect and admire the intelligence of some peers and professors. He has no adversary; Joe is too even-keel and can get along with anyone(mostly.)
25. Joe is not religious at all, to the point where he hates religion, zealously. If he could bring about an end to religion world wide, he would.
26. Joe likes baseball, hockey, watching movies, listening to music and playing video games. He is not into pop culture / hip things, or fads.
27. Joe has a pet cat. She is very small and playful. Bizzle, as he calls her, is a bulls-eye tabby with a great personality and can be quite feisty. She can be picked up with one hand with no problem and is fine with being worn around the back of the neck. A very trusting cat and Joe cares for her more than most people; she is the one thing he misses from home.
28. Joe hates himself. He doesn't like his looks, but sometimes finds them to be quite interesting. Joe is very insecure and has 0 self-confidence /esteem. He often jokes that he is bi-polar, but often wonders if that might actually be true. He either has or doesn't have crippling depression, but its most likely the former.
29. Joe is probably something that would be called an 'inextrovert,' taking on characteristics of both introverts and extroverts, but leaning more towards introvert. He is very shy and not outgoing at all. He doesn't like crowds and is uncomfortable around people. This discomfort lessens as he gets to know the people, but usually still remains in part. He doesn't really care about his feelings, you could say what ever you want about him and chances are, it wouldn't bother him. One can not effectively make fun of him because Joe just doesn't care.
30. Joe is very easy going and extremely pessimistic. He is the definition of apathy.
31. Joe does indeed have a sense of humor, however it is very different than most people's. His sense of humor encompass a wide range of attributes; it can be dry, sarcastic, inane, insane, intelligent, dirty, cynical and confusing. Often times when he is joking around, people will have no idea what he is talking about. Sometimes he will explain, others he will not.
32. Yes, Joe has been in love, even though I've called him the least capable of love.
37. Joe is not happy with his current life. His social life is un-fulfilling and lacking and he wishes he had done more things -anything- up to this point in his life. His childhood and adolescence left him unsatisfied.
38. Joe would like to be in a log cabin up on a snowy mountain.
39. Joe fears rejection and failure more than anything. He's not too fond of hornets either.
