background;
river was born into old money with the entire lux family working within an energy and oil company, founded by their great grandfather. after retiring from the company, river’s mother and his step father took over the company, becoming the coo and ceo.
river’s mother was incredibly terrified to disappoint her family by having a child with a man she wasn’t married to. as a matter of fact, she didn’t even know the last name of the male she’d met one drunkenly, wild and regret filled night. fortunately, she met river’s future step father pretty soon after and they married almost immediately. and three years later, welcomed a second child, dianne.
from the moment he was able to run around and run his mouth, river was your stereo typical joker. he filled each day with laughter, living by the here for a good time not a long time life motto. no matter how many etiquette classes the two kids were put into, there was no stopping the young boy once he started sprinting around the kitchen table, laughing uncontrollably.
there was only few things that could settle him down; video games, comic books and all things sci-fi. his bedroom was a world of his own, strikingly different to the rest of the lux manor. posters of all his favorite fictional characters littered the walls. stacks and stacks of comic books and sci-fi novels in every corner. a large computer desk, lit up with neon lights, boasting his pride and joy gaming computer. from the moment he woke up mid afternoon, to the time he finally went to bed at maybe five or six am, he was playing his video games, screaming cheers of joy and profanities following defeat.
river was spoiled to say the least, getting his entire christmas and birthday lists ticked off, even if that included meeting some of his favorite celebrities, his mom went out of his way to do so. and if he didn’t get what he wanted when he wanted it, nobody was sleeping that night. if river had to walk around the entire house, blaring music and hitting pots and pans together, he absolutely would. despite this behavior, he was always and always will be his mother’s golden boy.
much to his step father’s dismay, he wasn’t planning on going to college but after graduating school, and watching all his closest friends move away for university, he felt a little defeated. mostly because there was no one to play his games with online now. so after a few discussions with his mum, he decided to apply for university to study computer science, computer graphics, game design and coding. and boyyy did he thrive. it wasn’t the ideal situation for his step father, since he didn’t go into business to continue on the family business, but at least it was something.
fast forward to now, he’s 25 years old and graduated at the top of his college class. he is in the works of creating his own video game developing company after creating a world famous, incredibly successful game available to all softwares (think the likes of fortnite, battle royale or minecraft almost??? help), earning him an incredible couple million.
so after returning from university, he moved into his dream home in charleston, still close to his parents because he truthfully cannot do anything alone.
he also treasures his friends more than anything so moving back to charleston meant seeing his friends again and getting straight back into the party scene, throwing his millions away to drink, drugs, strippers, party buses, nightclubs and just having the best time of his life.
personality;
overly loud and boisterous to say the least
self proclaimed life of the party because he pays for everyone’s shit all the time
sarcasm is and always will be his first language
still has a 60% video games 40% partying life style
has a fear of growing up so whenever his birthday comes around, he forbids any mention of his age. security will dead ass kick you out if you mention his age
is actually a great friend and will start on anyone if they hurt his friends in anyway
especially his sister, they bicker a lot but if anyone says anything bad he’ll sell you
kinda follows whatever his sister says too cause he has 0 independence like if she decides she doesn’t like someone, he’ll hate that person too and make their life hell.
but in saying that, is an overall actually really nice, chill lad
again, he’s here for a good time, not a long time so he doesn’t care for your gender or whatever, he’ll love anyone that can make him laugh and provide him with a good time
sees himself as a god. think kanye west for that one lolol
has never cried in his life. rumor has it he came out of the womb with finger guns like ‘pew pew pew’ (SOMEONE MAKE HIM CRY PLS?!!?)
is known as the ‘computer guy’ and people usually hit him up to fix their shit, which he’s very happy to do so
nonetheless, has the mentality of a five year old
is very carefree and ‘go with the flow’
could eat an entire buffet to himself. think a bitta joey from friends
put into karate as a kid and has continued it to this day. has been a black belt for almost fifteen years now
