Dante Drexel
Fancy guy who really wants people to think he's very smart and cool. Also wants his dad to be proud of him (never gonna happen). His favorite food is chicken nuggets.
Personality, Interests, and Quirks
On the surface, Dante appears to be confident. Put-together. Very respectable. Not completely terrible fashion sense. Loves the spotlight. But deep down he's extremely childish! His favorite food is chicken nuggets and he wishes he had a racecar bed. Not that he'd ever talk about it openly.
Currently, he's part of the idol unit 4NTE affiliated with Amethyst Productions (AmePro). Normally he sucks at everything, but after years of hard work (and torment) he's gotten pretty good at singing, dancing, and even more than one instrument - all the essentials for the perfect idol boy, fine-tuned for marketable plushies. He's a bit of a perfectionist, and responds to all of his fanmail without fail.
Appearance
Dante has purple hair (with a side part!), blue eyes, and glasses. He also has a mole.
Lore
Dante's terrible no good very tragic backstory begins with his birth - his mother (Andromeda) died in the process, so his father (Daxius) was, of course, very bitter about it. Daxius was simultaneously very harsh and had unreasonable expectations of Dante, who had no natural talents whatsoever. A straight-C student who would only be good at something if he turned it into a time sink (this is how he learned multiple instruments; practice was a good way to avoid more frustrating things that made him feel bad).
Except! He did have one (1) talent, and that was Ballin', a popular (yet deadly, as losers get their heads exploded like in Scanners) sport in The City. Major sporting events are lucrative for advertisers. The scene is highly competitive, to the point where sportsball teams regularly have a Ball Draft, where they abduct highly desirable potential players to play ball. Unfortunately, if Dante wanted to play properly, he would've had to wear contact lenses, which are sensory hell for him. Fortunately, Dante doesn't want to die, so he wouldn't have wanted to Ball anyway. Double unfortunately, once you're seen as desirable to sportsball agencies (which can be for very arbitrary reasons), it's very difficult to dodge the draft.
But Dante is very much alive and not Ballin', so how did he dodge the draft? Very simple. He managed to land a contract with Amethyst Productions as an idol under the group FINE55E (which would later be 4NTE), and also he pretended to actually be atrocious at sports when asked about the subject. To this day, few know his secret...
Relationships (WIP)
Beryl Briar-Economy
4NTE's manager. Dante fears and respects her.
Chris Kim
Dante's former groupmate. He vehemently despises Chris due to his constant hazing towards Owen and poor conduct around women. Recognizing him as a liability, Dante was ultimately the one to put together the evidence of his crimes and anonymously destroy him.
Daxius Drexel
Dante's father. He just wants to hear one (1) sincere compliment from him, but...
Justice Clapham
It's complicated.
Kai Chevalier
Dante's groupmate. He's both envious of and frustrated with Kai due to his natural talent and apathy towards idol work.
Nico Cayetano
Dante's groupmate. At first he was annoyed with Nico due to how "unsuited" he was to be an idol, but later warmed up to him due to their similarities.
Owen
Dante's ex-boyfriend and former groupmate. Fumble of the century.
Silver Economy
Dante's groupmate. He holds Silver in high regard.
Trivia
- He's allergic to tree nuts and peanuts.
