| Personality |
|---|
| Adam, known to the majority of the city as AP, is a soft-spoken guy whose propensity to prioritize others well being and safety over his own often leads him to unfortunate circumstances for himself. While he often observes, when he does finally speak, he is known for blurting out the first thing that comes to his mind. This often results in misunderstandings about his intentions, no matter how well meaning he means them to be. Curiously, when he has time to write out his thoughts, he is incredibly articulate and precise. His “-100 speech” is exasperated when he is in stressful situations where he feels out of control. Because of this, along with his habit early on in the city of saving people at whatever personal cost to him, he is known to criminals and police alike as “The Fall Guy”.
As of late The Fall Guy has moved away from his self sacrificial nature for people he does not know keeping people he considers family closer than ever. He has become more reserved as a person not talking as much to people he doesn't know and opting not to speak at all when he would have otherwise been his full of energy and talkative self. |
Noteworthy Events[]
| Life Before LS, Las Venturas |
|---|
| Before Adam moved to Los Santos he went by Aiden, the area where he lived was full of people that were stuck up and that frustrated him a lot causing him to get into degenerate activities, Eventually he met Kaisa at a car dealership who initially hit on his brother but he brushed her off leading her to hit on him which led into a 3 year relationship that ended due to an incident that forced Aiden to leave his old life in Las Venturas behind and move to Los Santos under a new name.
|
| Reunited After 5 years |
|---|
| After five years Kaisa is understandable a bit angy that AP ditched her without a word all those years ago after a long talk on the water tower things are very much quickly fitting back into place of their very long term and seemingly strong relationship(If a little bumpy because there coming into his new life), and effectively setting out how things will be in the near future that their starting a new chapter of their life together and even signified such a change by getting new matching Tattoos(Previously the left arm dragon Tattoo that AP had she also had matching), but also got a sewn heart tattoo matching as well.
