Gary Roy Redwood
[/center]( The Basics )
( Full Name)[/color] Mr. Gary Roy Redwood
( Age )[/color] 37
( Birthdate )[/color] September 18
( Sex )[/color] Male
( Hometown )[/color] Miami, Florida
( Subject )[/color] Ethics
( Played By )[/color] James Marsden
( Their Power)
( Ability )[/color] Snap/Stare Explosion: With any snap, Gary can make any object he is focused on explode, rather it be a tree, a car, or human. Making an explosion noise while snapping adds more "lolz" to this which increases enjoyment. Speeding cars watch out, because Officer Redwood is coming for you. As Gary got older, he learned how to have things explode by staring at them. This was achieved by focusing on a pineapple in college and watching it explode.
Aerodynamic: Gary can surround himself with explosion-y energy, such as electricity and can damage anyone that is nearby. He can launch himself towards any enemy and give them quite the... exploding shock?
( Type of Power )[/color] Manipulation
( Weakness )[/color] Water for his aerodynamic, but super fast people for his mind explosion. If his hands are sweaty he can't snap either.
( Good vs. Evil )[/color] He's a teacher, can't be biased
( Personality )
As a teacher, Gary does not talk about his personal life with his students freely. He feels bad that these kids are trapped up in the school a lot, so he tries his best to be kind and easy going, but because he is taking a required class he tries to put on a stern, tough-guy face but fails miserably. Gary is kind of awkward with his teachings, especially with new students. He cares too much for his kids, both students and his very own.
( Little Details )
( Strengths)[/color] His eyes pierce anyone's soul. Gary is understanding, he might have been cocky in his teenage years, making comments about how they can't ignore something about him, but his still childish self makes the classroom enjoyable. He has a great smile too.
( Weaknesses )[/b][/color] Gary is still fairly new at teaching Ethics but he is learning more every year. He is also fairly busy with his family (daughter who is 7 and a son who is 4) so sometimes he will stay home to take care of his kids when his wife is out of sick days.
( Dark Secrets)[/color] He has a twin brother named Scott Summers on the opposite side of the country. HE IS THINKING ABOUT STARTING A GLEE CLUB.
( Reputation )[/color] Girls know Gary for his beautiful blue eyes and students will enjoy his demonstrations on explosions for fun. New students will dread his method of teaching, but as the years progress and students get more familiar with him, they enjoy the style of learning because they can argue with other students.
( Teaching Style )[/color] For Ethics, he does a Socratic Seminar approach. Rather than teaching the students directly, he will introduce the topic and have the kids join in a discussion where they in a sense, teach themselves. In his classroom the desks are moved to make a circle shape so they can all see each other while talking. Gary does not provide homework, so the grade is purely based on classroom participation and tests.
( Teaching History )[/color]12, although for the past 4 years he has been teaching Ethics. He was doing musical theater/band director before.
And he isn't a professor. He only has his masters. If he was a Professor he wouldn't be teaching here, he'd teach at college and get money, get paid.
