* Occupation: ‘criminal’ (he’s not really a threat. He’s just scary looking and lashes out when provoked/cornered)
* Living situation: mostly in the sewers if not in Blackgate/Arkham
* Mental illnesses: dyslexia
* Powers: enhance strength and reflexes, better vision in low to no light, extremely good swimmer, can hold his breath for upwards of five minutes, thicker skin due to both his skin condition and the testing done when imprisoned
* Weaknesses: naïveté, wants to see the good in everyone, can be too easily trusting
* ✨Trauma/Backstory✨: Waylon was born by loss, his mother passing in childbirth, but he was his father’s everything. Even with his skin condition. Waylon was about nine when a group of men, parents of some of his classmates, ganged up of his father and inevitably took the man’s life. Waylon ended up in the foster system of Louisiana but after a few years without any adoptions they sent him to Gotham. At thirteen Waylon ran away from the foster center he had lived at and hid in the sewers. No one looked for him. He stayed in the sewers and became the monster his old classmates believed him to be. Eventually Waylon started trying to get jobs which didn’t work since he hadn’t even passed third grade. A crime boss was willing to hire him as muscle off the books. Thus began his life of crime.
* Tattoos and other body mods: small spikes and ridges along his limbs, a tail (due to illegal experimentation during his imprisonment), sharp teeth, secondary eyelids and lung valve (to assist with swimming)
* Personality: Waylon’s a big softie. He knows he’s scary, knows how much space he takes up, and knows he ain’t the smartest in the room. He never has been. Always messing up spelling, getting words confused or backwards, and never learning how to properly read. Waylon tries to avoid people because he knows that he’s big, scary, and could run them off easy enough. The other rogues treat him well enough. Except Ed. Now Ed, he’s Waylon’s best friend, he’s taught Waylon a lot too. Same as Jonboy but Jonboy’s a bit too spooky for Waylon.
* Likes: Eddie, Jonboy, Jonboy’s bird, ducks, car rides, swimming, veal, making friends when possible
* Dislikes: loud noises, bright lights, dry spaces, yelling, when he gets cornered and has to lash out
* Favorite color: yellow or dirt brown
* Least favorite color: he hasn’t really found one yet
* Favorite animal: ducks
* Least favorite animal: creepy crawlies
* Favorite weapon: he doesn’t have one
* Least favorite weapon: most if not all weapons
