Personal Style (write a short paragraph): Greg's style and demeanor depend largely on his state of mind. When he's feeling generally good about life he wears nice jeans, t-shirts, and sweaters. When he's a bit depressed he tends to wear more worn and broken in jeans and hoodies and mostly neutral colors. When he's feeling really angry or distressed, he wears lots of gray and lets his hair grow long, even develops some facial hair, and he doesn't care much about his appearance. Generally, he wears a lot of green, tan, and grey. He also has a collection of hats and jackets he wears as needed.

Strengths (3 at least): Hand-to-hand combat (has learned to handle himself in a fight from years of experience); can use a gun (though he doesn't own one); underestimated (doesn't look like much, but he can put up a heck of a fight); determined (doesn't give up. When he starts something, he finishes it.); Athletic (a well-trained athlete, he's in very good physical condition); Persuasive (he talks a good game and can be very persuasive/manipulative/seductive if he wants to be)
Weaknesses (3 at least): Questionable morals (sees things the way he wants to see them and constantly changes his view of right and wrong to suit his immediate needs); loneliness (doesn't function well when he is single - which is most of the time - and gets depressed); Bad temper (he is quick to anger and once he flies off the handle, it's hard for him to calm down); social problems (he constantly mis-reads people and situations); chlostrophobia (has a crippling fear of small places)
Dreams for the Future: Greg tends to focus on the present, but would like to settle down and have a family someday.
Fears: Small spaces, death, loneliness, sometimes water, anything happening to the few loved ones he has.
Hero(es): He doesn't have any.
Biggest Secret(s): He killed his father when he was 15, but the death was ruled accidental.

Personality (write a decent paragraph): Greg is a peculiar person. He can seem sociable and friendly upon first meeting him, but once one gets to know him he or she will quickly realize he's not exactly stable. He can be a bit manic, laughing and smiling one minute and throwing punches the next. Because of this, Greg doesn't keep friends easily, but the ones he has are loyal and he returns that loyalty. He gets very protective of the people he loves and cares about, to the point that it's scary. His moral compass is also a bit off. His ideas of right and wrong will sometimes shift to suit his needs and he's not opposed to harming or even killing people he believes to be in his way. This becomes very messy when the way he perceives things isn't always accurate. In fact it's almost never accurate. Greg is constantly taking things the wrong way and misreading situations.

History: Greg was born in Buffalo, New York on February 27, 1984 to William Gregory Marsh II and Natalie Hoffman. He's always gone by his middle name to prevent confusion within the family, since his grandfather goes by William and his father goes by Billy. He has a younger brother named Everett James Marsh, who was born July 23, 1991. Greg had a strained relationship with his parents. From the time he was little, Greg always had social problems. He'd get into fights with other children, fly into rages that frightened his mother and angered his father. No matter how many doctors they took him to, how many medications they tried, nothing seemed to "fix" Greg.

One night, when Greg was 11 years old and had one of his infamous temper tantrums, his mother - alone with him and Everett - dragged him into the closet beneath the stairs to the second floor of their house. Hysterical and at her wit's end, Natalie locked him inside and turned up the volume on the television to a near-deafening level to drown out Greg's screams. He eventually passed out and Natalie left him there to sleep until morning. When she let him out he was nearly catatonic. He didn't speak for two days afterwards. This event traumatized Greg and forever altered his relationship with his mother.

In high school, Greg got very good grades, and was a member of the football team for a while, but he had frequent disciplinary problems and absences. He also had several run-ins with the local authorities for getting into fights and breaking into cars and public buildings. His father died of a head injury when he was 15 years old. He left home when he was 18 and bounced from one residence to the next for a few years before settling in Manchester.

He lived in Topeka, Kansas and went to high school there for part of his junior year and the entirety of his senior year. There he met and befriended Kelli Jo MacPherson. Through Kelli Jo, he also met her older sister, Annali. He had a bit of a crush on her and Kelli Jo coaxed him into going to their senior prom by setting him up with Annali. Greg and Annali dated for a while until Greg moved to Buffalo, New York to live with his uncle and to persue a college career. He and Annali parted on good terms and remained friends.

He was first exposed to supernatural occurances when his roommate was attacked by a werewolf. Greg was 21 at the time and living in New York City. Of course, they didn't know he was a werewolf until he began to change and tried to devour Greg. After he was forced to kill his roommate to save himself, he went searching for the werewolf that had caused all of it. He found that and much more and ended up falling into the Hunting life. Now he travels when he needs to, always looking for something to take his anger out on. He currently owns a permanent residence in Manchester, NH, but travels frequently.

Greg wasn't brought up in any religion and finds the idea a bit ridiculous. He doesn't believe that demons are agents of the devil and he doesn't believe in angels, since he's never encountered one. He doesn't believe in ultimate good or evil. Everything is in shades of gray. Nothing is absolute. Everything is relative.
