shafer owen augustine
asshole , surfer
I've never told a lie,
And that makes me a liar,
I've never made a bet,
But we gamble in desire,
I've never lit a match,
With intent to start a fire,
But recently the flames,
Are getting out of control.

personality ---
the asshole. shafer would be the biggest asshole you are probably ever going to meet in your entire life. his history kind of backs up his actions though, shafer uses being a complete dick as a sort of defense mechanism. to people he first meets, he will usually test them, see how far he can push them until they lash out. they pass the test if they keep their cool and give what he gives right back to him. he tends to judge people right off the back. not even behind their back but to their face. the boy has no filter to him, so whatever he is thinking just plum comes out. shafer doesn't like being told what to do, when to do it, etc. so if this happens you will usually get a finger to your face and a slammed door to follow up. this will also happen at any time that you say something that he doesn't like. his temper is very easily set off and short lived.
the druggie. shafer doesn't do drugs too often, but when he does, it's like he is a totally different person. the boy will have split personalities when he is high or totally gone. one will be this chill, i don't give a fuck kind of guy, the other is violent. shafer gets told after the raves he goes to that he tried to pick a fight with almost everyone there. he takes no mercy to girls either when he gets violent after doing drugs, which it terrifying. shafer normally can't remember anything the day after he has done them, nor does he have control when he is doing them. when he pops adderall it is a completely different story, that doesn't effect him like hardcore drugs do; it just makes him stay up for a maximum of three days straight.
the norm. on a normal day, shafer is pretty chill. he is not a social butterfly, though if he see's a hot girl on the street he will most likely go over and try to get into her pants. he likes to party on a daily basis, drinking a ton, smoking flavored cigarettes, blaring loud music, and just having fun. surfing is a part of his daily life, he will actually get up early to catch some of the good waves. shafer normally isn't the one to start a conversation, but once you have him started, he won't stop.
the sex addict. shafer is a womanizer. hands down the biggest asshole and womanizer you will ever meet. he is one of those shallow bastards that like to go for looks and only thinks about sex. his libido is off the charts, sometimes it gets him into trouble. shafer has a hard time hearing 'no', he respects 'no', but will have a fit if he doesn't get what he wants. he is such a sex addict, that he had sex with all three of his step sisters. gross right? his excuse was 'oh well, they aren't blood related'. the boy sometimes cannot control himself.
the sweetheart. you wouldn't believe shafer has a side like this, but the boy really does surprise people sometimes. he is a huge asshole to people, but he will ALWAYS keep his manners around. holding the door open for little old ladies, picking up things that have fallen off racks in the store, saying please and thank you, etc. deep down inside all shafer wants is someone who will really love him. he is a total closet case romantic and often writes song to go along with his guitar playing that hint to that.
the charmer. shafer is a total charmer when he wants a girl. he will say anything she wants to hear just to pull her into his trap. shafer is one of those guys that girls look back on to say something like: "yeah, he is an asshole but he was so sweet and charming at first. which is why i did it." every time, same old story, same old dance. shafer has been perfecting his charm act ever since around thirteen years of age and he has gotten pretty damn good at it.
the bum. shafer isn't a slob, but he does not like to get up early, get a shower, get dressed, and go to work. he doesn't like the manual labor of it all and would rather be home playing call of duty until he had a massive headache from looking at the t.v. screen for hours. shafer hardly ever goes out of his way to do things for other people, it was never his thing.
the friend. shafer is an amazing friend. loyal, trustworthy, and fun to be with. if you have landed a spot in shafer's circle of friends, you will have a friend for life; that is unless you screw him over then well... you won't ever be his friend again. his friends are a very important part of his life, shafer loves to be around people constantly. friends are the people that he loves to party with, go to raves with, surf with, have bonfires with, and sit around and play the guitar with.
the nice guy. on some days shafer will actually be pretty nice to people. he has those days where he wakes up feeling really great and just wants to be nice. sure he still has that asshole vibe but will try to be a tad nicer to those around him than the norm. these days rarely ever happen, but when they do, his friends say he shows the sweetheart that is deep down inside normally.

-shafer has had sex with his step sister, all three of them. he can't help his sexual appetite sometimes, and will go after anything. many have called him a 'sex addict'.

aspirations: -shafer dreams of one day being a motivational speaker. he knows it probably won't ever happen because of his mentality, but he still hopes to one day be able to inspire people to better themselves.
-he loves surfing, being pro is definitely on his list of wants, thought shafer doesn't really want it to be his 'job'; rather just something fun he can do in his free time.

favorite place to be -- shafer's favorite place to be would either be on the beach, or at his house. he doesn't mind getting out, don't get him wrong he is a total party boy' but being by himself, no disturbances, is where he would much rather be.
history ---
-on july fifteenth, twenty-one years ago, shafer owen augustine was brought into the world by his two parents... lillian elizabeth augustine and michael owen augustine. the two parents were inseparable and could not wait to begin their family with their newly born baby boy. the early times of shafer's life as a baby were a little rough, he had colic, and could not sleep unless his mother was right beside him. as he began to grow older, month by month, he grew out of his colic and became a rather happy toddler.
-in shafer's toddler years he started showing signs of his mischievousness. he would pull curtains off the rods, fling his food around, track mud into the house, pull the dogs ears, and write on the walls with sharpie. his parents began to struggle in their relationship. with shafer becoming a handful, his father was beginning to try and escape the house as much as he could. often times going to the bar with his buddies, getting a bit too drunk.
-as shafer began to grow out of his toddler years and turned six years old things started to down pour. his father was going out almost every night, trying to get out of parenting duties, and have some fun. his mother would cry all the time and shafer didn't understand. he started growing out of his mischievousness and tried desperately on a daily basis to make his mom happy. people would come to their house, banging loudly on their door asking for shafer's father. he had gotten into a few fights at the bars and people started to look for him, to try and teach him a lesson.
-shafer went through the ages past six up to thirteen peacefully, he was well rounded and often taught by his mother, seeings how his father was now hardly ever around. the boy was constantly trying to fit in with crowds and often the wrong ones at that. as shafer grew more into his teens he began experimenting with drugs, alcohol, and cigarettes. the boy was turning into what his father had become. shafer always treated his mother with respect, never back talked, was always helpful around the house. shafer believed that his mother really understood him and was truly the only person that would ever love him. despite his mothers constant nagging to stop hanging out with the people he did, shafer continued on his path, fueled by the hurt his father brought him. by this time shafer's father would often stumble into the house at late times of the night, violent as ever, and ready to take on anyone in his path. this often meant his father would take it out on his mother whether it be beating her or sexually abusing her. shafer would go to his room and blast his stereo, he was always too afraid to do something about it.
-shafer lived like this throughout being fifteen and into sixteen years old. a few days after his birthday his father came stumbling into the house as always, cursing up a storm, knocking stuff down, and headed straight for his mother. this is when shafer had had enough. he knocked his own father out in one punch. he took his mother to his room where they slept for the night. the next day they woke up to police surrounding the house and beating on the door. his father had ratted the boy out with his occasional drug use, alcohol tendencies, and of course the black eye he had given to his father the night before. the teen court ruled him to five months in juvie, where shafer began to become more and more like he is today.
-after returning home from juvie, things were still the way they had been. his father would drunkenly stumble into the house, knock things over, etc. however, now that shafer was back his father would often try and go after him. shafer would take it, in fear of being taken away again. a few weeks after getting home from juvie, a group of men showed up in front of his house yelling profanity and beating on the door. being a drunk and not realizing these men would cause harm, shafer's father open the door. a single shot to the head killed him. by this time shafer had already pulled up the staircase to the attic (which was where his room was) and was peering down at the scene from above. the men chuckled together as they kicked his father's body aside and started grabbing what little valuable things the augustine's owned. when they found shafer's mom under the bed they pulled her out by her hair, raped her, and shot her in the head as well. after they took what they wanted and cleaned up any evidence they thought would give them away, they fled. shafer stayed in the attic for the rest of the night, planning on fleeing in the morning.
-he fled to ehu, an un-official island of hawaii that he thought no one would find him at. his senior year was cut short and he would never finish it due to the fear of being found and brought back to washington. the boy was devastated, taken a back at what he had witnessed and didn't tell. shafer figured the police would find out eventually and maybe only try to reach him by phone to get a statement. shafer vowed to never speak of that incident again, never go back to washington, nothing. he developed a cold outer shell, pushing people away, but at the same time he just wants someone to be there and try to break it.
-shafer now lives what he calls a normal life. has normal friends, one night stands, surf life, and his own place. the boy is happier than when he first arrived, but still holds that fear and inability to cope or be 'normal'.
