Personality and Information: Tiberius generally keeps to himself, and just about anyone could rightfully classify him as a recluse. It's not as though he doesn't like people, he just chooses not to go out of his way to talk to others and -- honestly -- he's a bit awkward when it comes to conversing with anyone because he simply hasn't done it enough. That, along with the fact that he is wary of people in general [thanks to Trent], is just another reason for his decision to be alone for most of the time.
He has a slight stutter that likes to make itself known at times [generally when he's nervous], though it's not very prominent and does not lay on too thick.
The man is beyond paranoid, which is [yet] another reason for his hermit-like habits. Trust is definitely something that you have to earn with him, and it does not come easily.
He is, however, generally very submissive -- choosing not to fight with others or even himself. He lets his subconscious take over as he's gotten tired with putting up a fight though he is very self-aware and has full control over his motions and what he actually does. Just ... not so much what he thinks.
Tiberius enjoys watching more-so than actually getting involved. He'll sit on the sidelines and listen, rarely giving his own input on anything unless prompted to.

He suffers from Schizophrenia and sees a lot of hallucinations -- things that he perceives as there that really are not -- and hears a lot of things that aren't being said. It is amplified when he is left to himself and left to simply think.
His strongest hallucination and what he considers his best friend is a giant dog-like beast that calls itself Trent. Trent assures him that he is safe within himself, with him, but that he should rightfully be untrusting of those he does not know -- because a bastard doesn't tell you before he stabs you in the back, and surely won't unveil his plans to kill you.
He smothers Tiberius and drives him farther and farther away from ever hoping to lead a normal life. Is, in some sense, like an overprotective mother that will not let her son see the light of day in fear of what he may become and/or what the world may turn him in to.

Because of this, he is often seen talking, conversing with, or yelling to himself/thin air.
He fully believes that Trent is real, will full-on 'converse' with him and will attempt to point him out to anyone who questions him in an attempt to prove his sanity which -- sadly -- has the opposite affect.

Trent, though a figment of imagination, does have a personality of his own and is in some sense his own being. He's over-bearing and pessimistic -- he enjoys playing mind-games, and often goes back and forth between coddling and completely fucking with Tiberius's mind.
Though he is the one Tiberius is closest to, and the one that the boy trusts the most -- Tiberius is borderline afraid of the beast, and often wishes he'd go away [both by telling him directly and thinking it to himself] as his company and words are sometimes unwanted.
Trent enjoys making himself known when Tiberius is directly in the public eye or on his own, though he is not opposed to appearing at any other given time.

Tiberius is plagued by nightmares on a regular basis, so he generally looks rather tired and worn-out due to lack of healthy and undisturbed sleep. Carries himself in a self-protecting manner, shoulders often lifted lightly and self-consciously, appearing reserved.
He is self-conscious to a fault, questioning everything he says and does. He knows something is wrong with him -- or at least, that is what others lead him to believe and thus it had become imprinted in his brain that there is something wrong. He doesn't know WHAT that something is, and that has him questioning every aspect of himself in hopes of finding it out.


To be expanded, as these are the basics and I kind of just ... wanted to get him up.

As a note, I will play Trent as though he is living. I will write out his motions and what he is 'doing', but none of it is actually happening [as he is NOT REAL], if you get what I'm trying to say.

I'm not sure about his voice -- but I imagine him to be slightly slow and soothing, soft-spoken and borderline monotone with most of what he is saying.
I'm trying not to make everything sound like RDJ.

Aw, poor guy. I have a schizophrenic fellow too, though not on this forum.

Accepted.
