Personality: Drew can't really be described in a few words, I suppose. He's a mixture of a lot of things: determination, laziness, humor, sarcasm, friendliness and whatever else he feels like being at the moment. One minute he's going a mile a minute to get something done and then the next he's sitting on the couch, eating a bag of potato chips watching ESPN. He's a big sports fanatic, his favorites include swimming, soccer, rugby and cricket. But, for the most part, Drew is quiet, determined, loyal and funny and will give you the shirt off his back if someone needs it. He can be a bit stubborn and doesn't really trust people very easily; but in his line of work, it comes with the territory.
Ability: (Through role-play) Drew will discover that he has the ability to walk, run, talk, think and pretty much do everything, at incredibly fast speeds. He'll be able to out-run jets and go so fast that he'll give the illusion that he can walk on water.

History: Andrew Kiev Linsey was born in the Big Apple: New York City. His great-(add a few more great's) grandfather, Josef Linsey, was the founder of a (at the time) little banking company. However, as the city grew, so did the bank. Today the company--run by yours truly--has expanded into several different areas of investment such as housing, wall street, sports, television and news and has an estimated net worth of over six point nine billion dollars. But, let's go back a little further, shall we?

Little baby Drew had already inherited half a billion dollars by the time he was only five minutes old. His parents, Wilhelm and Ana Linsey, didn't really want kids--heck, they didn't even like each other--but "for the sake of procuring an heir" to the Linsey money-making throne, did so. Because his parents hated (well, maybe not hated, but they sure didn't want anything to do with each other; let alone Drew) their little boy so much, he was shipped off to live with Grandpa Maximilian.

This, fortunately, was a blessing in disguise. You see, Maximilian taught his grandson about hard work, giving back to the community and trying to be known as simply a "good person" instead of a "fat cat" on Wall Street. But, with great power comes great responsibility (my apologizes to you Spidey fans) and because of what he does, most people mistake him for a snobbish, spoiled rich kid who's only where he is because of his family connections. Though this is somewhat true, he does work extremely hard at his job. But he plays hard, too.

So how did the Billionaire Baby end up on this God forsaken island? Well, everyone needs a little "R&R", right? After Drew had taken six months off after graduating from Harvard Law School and taking over his family's money-making machine all by the time you're twenty-three, I'd say he deserves some rest and relaxation, right?
Other: Umm, nope.
