tldr.
Atlas was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona, with two older brothers and parents who didn't get along. He was an athlete in school and hung around with the popular kids, although part of him never quite felt like he fit in beyond his prowess in sports. He was about ten when his parents got divorced and it hit him a lot harder than his brothers, who were upset, obviously, but healed from it and learned how to live with the split, whereas Atlas felt gutted and continues to carry a shadow of the hurt around with him even now. He worked after high school, not terribly interested in college, and saved up money to travel. When he returned home, he spontaneously decided to pick up and move to southern California, where he completed a tattoo apprenticeship and now works as a tattoo artist. He doesn't actually have many tattoos himself, but loves bringing people's ideas to life and has always admired them on other people. A bit of a walking contradiction, he's a little bit Gym Bro Chad and a little bit Tattoo Artist Stoner. He's easy to get along with, but not as easy to really get to know, with a tendency to repress feelings that are hard to deal with.

headcanons.
At the gym daily, usually for at least two hours, sometimes more if he's not working; he absolutely puts his feelings into exercise as an outlet, not always in a healthy way
In general, extremely loyal, but he has a wandering attention and a tendency to let the people in his life fall by the wayside if he gets too focused on his own coping mechanisms and routines and especially when he gets really into a new hobby
Super easy to get along with, chill as fuck, likes everyone unless they give him a hard reason not to and even then he's more likely to ignore someone he dislikes than engage in a fight
That said, when he's pushed to his limit and all of his repressed emotions reach a boiling point, he gets heateddddd
Always been a doodler and a scribbler, it wasn't until he got older that he realized he could actually do something cool with his talent
Kind of disturbingly good at fwb because he just does not catch feelings easily and is fantastic at keeping sex and intimacy separate. This has gotten him in trouble rip
Loves dogs and cats but can't be fucked having one of his own so he's obsessed with all of his friends' pets
Big daddy issues. His dad bottles up his feelings too and it's always been hard for Atlas to communicate with him about stuff that hurts without it turning into a fight
bio.
