Name: Old Man Humphrey
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Age: 69
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Personality: Old Man Humphrey is really a likable, good-natured person, once you get to know him. He does not like teenagers in general much. They either give him sass, or they simply ignore his presence. He does not like to sound as if he were bragging. He is mostly a mild person. He's not very assertive, and will sometimes tell people "Nevermind" when they don't hear him the first time. Most older folks his age would be mighty crochety (set in their ways), but he's not most older folks. He honestly does not understand some things young people do (like "Why the heck do people take so many selfies?", "Why do people use social media so much?", etc.)
Positive Traits: 1. Patience
2. Kindness
3. Wisdom
4. Likes to think before he speaks
5. Always reads the manual first.
Negative Traits: 1. Procrastination
2. "Oldness" (as his kids describe it)
3. Overthinking simple things
4. Can take too long on a decision
5. Does not have many friends
Likes: 1. Marbles
2. Old big band swing (30s jazz) music
3. Sweet potato pie
Dislikes: 1. Disrespect
2. Cursing/Swearing
3. Constant bragging
Strengths: Humphrey is very cool-headed when it gets down to it. One of his favorite things is to get his opponents to the point where their fury clouds their judgement, though he has slacked off from using it recently.
Weaknesses: Humphrey will be on the verge of losing it when someone gives him sass. Sometimes, he can be a little too nice, to the point where he is taken advantage of at times.
Physical Appearance: Kind of portly (~200+ lbs.), short, gray hair, brown eyes, around 5'5" in height.
Character Story: To be honest, Old Man Humphrey didn't start out wanting to be a Bakugan Brawler. In fact, if you had asked him about 3 years ago what Bakugan was, he wouldn't have had a clue. Growing up, Old Man Humphrey was really into marbles. He used to play every day at recess in the schoolyard, and got to build a sizable collection. But, when he grew up, he abandoned his childhood game and lived a comfortable life working as a humble owner of a small antiques shop. About two years ago, he was first introduced to Bakugan. At the time, he was babysitting his grandsons for the weekend (His son and daughter-in-law had went on an anniversary trip without them.) For a while, the boys were downstairs playing some game. He had left them to go check around the yard for any pests eating his flowers. When he came back in, Humphrey went downstairs to go check on the boys. They weren't usually as quiet as they were this particular evening.
He called out, "What are you boys doin' down there?" They explained that they had been playing the hottest new game, Bakugan, just a few moments ago. Humphrey didn't quite understand it at first, but his interest was piqued when he saw their toys. To him, they looked like big, plastic marbles; and they rolled the balls sort of like marbles, too. The game seemed to be fun, so he started out brawling against his grandchildren. It took him two months, but he finally beat both boys. His strategies eventually improved, as he used to come up with strategies all the time as a teenager (he used to be a pretty good chess player back in his day). Now, he has become a little more serious about brawling, but he still plays just for fun, not for fame, or money, or a championship title, but just because he likes the game. After a while, his grandsons tried convincing him to enter the Bakugan World Championships. After months of constant pressure, Humphrey finally caved in and entered.
