 Ezra is twenty-nine, uptight, suffers from OCD and is a lawyer. And he's kind of an asshole. He holds doors open for people, has no all-out ridiculous prejudices (except against traffic wardens, because fuck 'em) and doesn't really go in for cruelty. He's just... kind of a douche, mainly because he considers himself oh-so-superior and can be condescending as hell. He's lived in Carmel for two years, working for a local law firm, and slinks around keeping a low profile. Which is surprising considering how big his head is.
So, yes, he isn't the easiest person to get along with. He's also easy to resent because he gets rich on the misdeeds and misfortunes of others and sincerely has no moral qualms about this. But he also enjoys wordplay, respects people who stand up for themselves even if he never grows to like them and just occasionally needs a bit of help he's way too mule-headed to admit to. I am open to pretty much anything, and have some ideas of my own:
CLIENTS
He's a defence attorney. He might have represented your character... or the person they were up against. He's damn good at his job. He rarely forms a personal connection with his clients, but hey, it's a way for him to know someone even if only in a professional way.
BRO
I'm expecting Ezra to not get on with a whole lot of characters. Which is cool with me. He's an antagonistic guy. But I want one biffle for him. Just one. My idea is that they're kind of opposite, or at least balance each other out-- bro is more laidback, tries to get Ezra to take it easy or (heaven forbid) have a little fun. Probably someone outgoing and charming and reckless and fun. And Ezra acts the part of responsible adult, looking after them when they're on a killer of a comedown or taking care of official businessor bailing them outta jail. Can be of whatever gender, 'bro' is an all-encompassing term. Top banter is the only requirement. That and gruff but unconditional love. If you think your character would fit and needs this in their life, I will adore you forever.
LITTLE SISTER
I'll probably post a wanted ad for this once I'm more settled into the game, but I may as well mention it here. Ezra has a little sister who has him wrapped around her little finger. I don't care whether she's a sweetheart or a brat or anything in between; whatever she's like, Ezra adores her. She's the reason he chose to move here after shit went down in Chicago. If you're interested at all, hit me up.
BLAH BLAH OTHER
So I'm cool with friends and enemies alike if there's reason for it. And frenemies, my personal favourite. When concerning love interests, I don't like to plan things too much and I am still getting into the swing of Ezra. However! I'll say that one of the few things that really flusters Ezra is beautiful women getting seductive with him. (He gets even more flustered if it's a beautiful man, but also kind of pissed off and angry.) Just leaving that there because it's fun to mess with him, not that either of those things happen very often. Any other ideas? Do tell~!
