Category (vampire, werewolf, human): Human
Hometown: Forks, Washington
Family: Dr Christian Burke and Mrs. Kathryn Burke
Strengths & Weaknesses:
STRENGTHS: His ability to win anyone over with his smile and a twinkle in his eyes. He is not very smart intellectually but his street smarts are second to none.
WEAKNESSES: He acts without thinking which can sometimes lead to trouble with the law or very embarrassing situations.
Personality: Derek has a dark past which has lead him to be, a very troubled person. Due to his past he rebels a lot and spends most of his time chatting up girls and 'controlling' his friends.
His outside appearance is that of a popular daredevil who will try anything once and always gets the girls, but this is mainly due to a flamboyant and c'est la vie, sense of life as he feels he has nothing to live for.
He puts on this thingyy act at school which hides his fear of his home life, where he is a weakling and mainly a toy for his sadistic parents life.
History:
Derek has lived in Forks his whole life with his doctor father, solicitor mother and his younger sister. They are a very prominent family and one of the richest excluding the Cullen's.
They have the appearance of the perfect upper class family with an air of untouchablity about them. They are respected by all members of the community and have a lot of accuquences, including the Cullen's whom they are fond of and friendly with due to Dr. Burke working closely with Carlisle.
To the outside they seem perfect and wholesome, but once you get inside the terrible truth is exposed.
They are not vampires or werewolves but worse. Dr and Mrs Burke are sadistic, disgusting human beings who torture their children day and night.
Derek is subjected regularly to beatings and sexual abuse at the hands of father and spends most of his time at home obeying his mother and fathers wishes to keep his 14 year old sister safe.
To his parents he is nothing more than a slave and a play thing and they have made no attempt to love or nurture him. The only good thing they have done for their son is to help him integrate into society and help him to be successful, in what he decides to pursue in life which is medicine, even though he may not have the smarts.
Whilst he has a terrible home life, school is a different matter. In school he is one of the most popular people who gets on with nearly everyone. Whilst every guy wants to be his friend and every girl wants to date him, the teachers are a bit indifferent to him, as he coasts through and never pays much attention, Oswell as being a bit of a trouble maker.
He hides behind a facade and whilst popular never lets anyone get to close for fear of discovering more about his home life.
At the moment he has his sights set on Alice Cullen and Bella Swan, two of the only girls in school who don't faint when he talks to them. He wants to prove that he can get anyone to fall and likes a bit of a challenge. Though he doesn't know it, his home life will come to effect him more and more, as his controlling and manipulative ways start to effect the way he behaves around the women and he turns slowly more into his father.
RP sample:
Derek sat outside on his porch shivering not just from the cold but the fright of the unknown. Suddenly before he had time to brace himself the door swung open and his father appeared before him eyes blazing with anger. 'Da...d'' he started before he was pull inside with such a force his head snapped back and forth. His father threw him on the floor and without a word started kicking him in the stomach only stopping when he threw up all over the floor.
'How dare you steal from me so you can go and take some girl out for dinner and a quick fumble!!' his father screamed at him for not the first time, for a similar matter. Derek covering and in pain, shrank back against the wall and waited for the beating to be over.
