THE CHARACTER
Name: Marcello Vargas
Age: 14
Hometown: Seborga, Italy
Appearance: Marcello is right within the normal height of a boy his age, placing him at 5'5”(165cm). His figure is rather slender, with the majority of his definition in his calves. This runner-like build comes from a lot of time spent playing pick up games of football and running from jealous boyfriends. His skin is tanned darker than most Europeans, but isn't considered dark among other Italians or by the standards of most other continents. He holds himself very confidently, striding around when he isn't napping or leaning on something.
His hair is a light brown, somewhat akin to a caramel color. He keeps his thick hair somewhat long, but one strand in particular is longer than the others and never wants to succumb to gravity. Instead, it sweeps out to his left, curling from the middle. While strange, this trait is shared by his relatives and isn't even unique to them. His eyes are an muted amber color.
Marcello doesn't fixate on his own style, but rather the process comes naturally to him. He doesn't put on tacky clothing because he isn't drawn to anything like that. While not a conscious decision, he dresses more like someone trying to be impressive than someone who wants to be comfortable.
Personality: Within the Vargas family, there are a lot of strong traits that seem to be present in every member of every generation. Marcello is no exception and when placed near any member of his family, clear parallels can be drawn. Marcello's strongest Vargas trait is his love to flirt, especially with women. Marcello considers his search for feminine beauty to be more serious than either of his brothers or his other relatives. At a physical age of only fourteen, he sees himself as a young Casanova that not even matured women can resist if he sets his sights on them. On the other hand, he's totally clueless when it comes to advances from another male and an interested guy would have to practically spell out their desire.
He likes to play around more than work, having a special affinity for playing little pranks and carefree days. His managers frequently must remind him to get back to work and stop daydreaming. While outgoing, he isn't usually the person to start up a group activity. Being in charge is typically a lot of work and he'd rather pester someone else into stepping up into such a role. Generally he is a rather passive fellow who will brush off not getting his way.
Marcello loves his family and fully supports their roles within the theatre business. However, he doesn't always like to hang out with them, as he feels they tend to either cramp his style or put pressure on him.

Job: Concessions Worker
Experience: A couple of months, just long enough to know the process well enough.
Extra details: Marcello considered trying to be an actor, but he didn't like the roles that he would have been given (the younger characters don't get so many kiss scenes), though if he was needed, he would try.
Brief History:Marcello is the youngest child in a series of three. The boy was actually born while his family was on a vacation visiting his aunt in her home in Seborga, Italy. His brothers already had a few years on him and he wasn't particularly close to them. However, he was around them long enough to mimic their flirting and got into the habit of doing so before he understood anything about romance. This was not helped by the fact that most older women, thinking he was a cute kid, would indulge him with kind words.
His brothers had both entered into the acting world when he was very young and he always assumed he would one day join them. He somewhat got this wish when he was hired to provide concessions for the patrons. Even with his meager mathematical skills, his people skills had been judged high enough to balance it out. He enjoys his job to some extant and the friendly behavior that got him hired seems to be doing just what it was projected to. From time to time, he reevaluates his lack of interest in playing children's parts, but he yet to seriously consider speaking with the producers about it.
RP Sample:What a great day! The sun was shining and some beautiful man's smile was rivaling its charm mere feet away. Naturally that man was just his reflection in the window of a corner store. He winked at himself before turning back forward. Just his luck or perhaps their luck, a pair of soon to be admirers were coming right toward him! They were both firmly at the top of the scale. They were also both firmly four years older than him, if not more. But that was no problem! His maturity easily made up for any superficial difference in age.
”Salve signorina. Lovely day isn't it?” The women looked down at him and giggled as they past. Oh yeah. Totally caught in his net. He liked how they played hard to get by not stopping for him. Likely they were trying to predict what line he would use the moment before they fell in love with them. That would be such a coincidense if they were, since that was the next thought on his mind.
Marcello was distracted by a vibration in his pocket, signaling some happening with his phone. Placing his hand in his pocket, he pulled out the electronic device and inspected it. It was that girl again, the Australian Micronation. Apparently informing him all the ways he was wrong in his last message. He smirked. Too bad she was a couple years younger than him and not a couple years older. She was cute when she pretended she didn't care if he was around or not. As cruel as it was to the more distant women, Marcello elected to respond. No doubt he'd hear about it if he didn't.
