Sleepy Boy:
Not only is he constantly tired from working overnights and long shifts, but his depression manifests pretty hard on wanting to nap a bunch. Sometimes he spaces out because his brain wants him to pass out.

A Little Nihilism Never Hurt Anyone:
Adam is going nowhere in life, and he knows it. He grew up here, is gunna slave his life away here, and finally die here, probably young and alone. He's sure of it, and has mostly resigned himself to obscurity.

The Regretful Bulwark:
Adam got bullied a fair bit in school, and it never got better for him. Now, he's meeker and too tired to mess with the status quo...... until he actually can't ignore someone being intensely targeted anymore. He's taken a beating or two for intervening on other's behalf even knowing it wasn't going to go well.

- Additional Information
- A fair number of his tattoos cover up scarring from when he was younger. His cat, greg, is his most important connection to life. Its one of the main reasons his depression hasn't won in the grand game of life.
- He's never been athletic, but not for a lack of trying. A couple years of working out in the school gym netted him none of the gains he was hoping for, and he gave up on getting swole or jacked.
- He doesn't get on well with his dad, who is an alcoholic. His mother passed when he was in highschool so family is a touchy subject with him.
- Adam watches a lot of live streams, and has a number of only fans subscriptions he'd never openly admit to. He likes video games, but can't afford many so he plays a lot of oldies. With so many slow hours to kill late at night, he listens to true crime podcasts, audio books, and watches horror movies on his days off.

- Overnight Gas Station Manager
- Housing

- Wealth

History
- Date of Birth
- Dec 25th
- Place of Birth
- Polaris Pass
Adam had a.... mostly normal childhood. Decent grades, single child household, and a decent interest in something marginally nerdy like comics. Just enough to get picked on, go through his emo phase that eventually just settled on grunge goth, highly stressed clothing, and eventually into more non-binary clothing that only ever got him labeled a femboy later in life. What wasn't normal was how his mother had gotten sick, terminal illness that took her slow and in pieces until eventually nothing remained. His father nigh slaved the hours away at work and the hospital to try and make payments, but eventually hospital bills swamped them with debt and they didn't float back up to the surface. His father took to alcohol to deal with the stress, and eventually to mute the grief of a lost spouse.
Adam's father handled the death no better than he, a child at the time, did. Getting violent, pushing his son away with each backhand and eventual fist. When Adam turned 16, he left the house permanently and got a job at a local grocery store while moving from couch to couch for a few years and burning most of his bridges in the process of trying to stand on his own feat. Then, he got a lucky break, if you could call it that. An opening at a shithole of a place that reeked of cigarettes, weed, and mildew for just about all of his monthly income. Finally having his own place, he carved out a small foothold for himself and managed to use that to get to where he is now. The only thing keeping him from taking a dive without a parachute was the kitten he found in a box that was being surrendered. So he spent just about anything else he could spare past living and getting his addictions supplied went into caring for his cat greg.
Just recently he finally got promoted to night manager at the grocery store after almost a decade of working there, giving him the faintest bit of spare change to let him do something other than what he normally is limited to.
