STRIKE A POSE ' '
Physical Appearance: Anuenue stands at an average 5ft 10. He has the lean muscular body of a dancer, and moves with a certain fluid grace.
His clothing is pretty typical of what you would expect from a guy his age. Lots of t-shirts, cargo shorts, semi-baggy jeans, that all seem to fit into the general genre of surfer chic. It's clear he doesn't put too much work into his appearance his outfits don't always match and frequently have wrinkles. The only real style statement he makes is with a grey fedora, that he is almost never seen without. As for shoes he prefers to go barefoot or in flip flops, when it gets cold out he will throw on a pair of vans but he is never too thrilled about having to do that.
His skin is a golden tan color typical of Hawaiians. His face is long but handsome. He has golden brown eyes that can only be described as serene. He has a long but perfectly straight nose, and lips that are full and shapely but are comparatively small to his nose. As for hair he keeps his hair he tries to keep it simple. His black hair is cropped very close to his skull, and he has a small soul patch below his lip.
LET'S GET TO KNOW YOU BETTER ' '
Personality Description: Anuenue is often underestimated, and it’s really not surprising. He is mellow and friendly, usually seen with a big lazy grin on his face. This often leads people to believe that he is a complete stoner, but it couldn’t be further from the truth.
Anuenue is rather wise, especially for his age. He never really cares about the details, facts, and figures that make up what we typically consider intelligence; he is more about the big picture. He is quite insightful and has a real mind for philosophy, he generally can’t be bothered to get his head out of the clouds long enough to pay attention in class. The only thing Anuenue really applies himself at is games. He loves to play board games, video games, even some sports. While one could hardly call him ambitious or competitive he likes to win, and he loves a good natured round of smack talk while playing a game.
He is quite friendly, and makes friends easily. He is kind, but generally doesn’t go out of his way to find ways to help others. Anuenue never volunteers to go help out, but if he is there at the right time he might end up literally giving someone the shirt off his back. He never appears to be worried about anything, he often blocks negative things from his mind or convinces himself it’s not really a big deal. He has a very casual attitude to just about everything.
Of course he has bad days, and the problems he works so hard to ignore eventually catch up with him. When this happens one of two things will occur, he will become silent and go into deep thought mode, or he will challenge someone to a game of halo (or equally violent video game) and play aggressively. It is incredibly rare to see him loose it.

WELCOME TO MY LIFE ' '
Origin: Maui Hawaii
History: His birth was marked by a huge double rainbow in the sky, and so he was named Anuenue Akua, God’s Rainbow. This strong and healthy boy was born out of a behind the scenes love affair at an exclusive Maui resort. His mother Kala was the dance instructor who kept tourists amused and in shape with lessons in Hula, Swing, and Ballroom. His father Leo (short for Leolani) was the head chef at the resorts five star restaurant.
When the rich and famous went to the resort most never stopped to think about the people who worked there. Most never stopped to think that the resort was more then a get away for the rich and famous, it was also home to those who worked there. Naturally the people who worked at the resort didn’t actually live on the grounds, but it acted as the backbone of the community. Anuenue wasn’t the only child born to hotel workers who fell in love and got married.
Their life was comfortable, they weren’t exactly rich or anything but they lived comfortably and had everything they really needed. When you lived in a community where people really took care of one another, who needed money. His father could prepare gourmet meals, the his parents friends could give him lessons in everything from golf to surfing, and if he felt like having a little luxury in his life all he had to do was sneak into the hotel pool or get one of the parking attendants let him sit behind the wheel of a (parked) Ferrari for a few minutes.
All Anuenue ever needed was good friends and good food to be happy, and he had that. Perhaps it is why he never really aspired to do more with his life. According to IQ tests he was almost a genius, but he just never applied himself in school. Anuenue was always more interested in fun and games. His mother taught him how to dance, and he had taken to it with ease. From an early age he had been performing at luau’s and helping out at the occasional class He just assumed that one day he would become the dance instructor at the resort, if not he would take some other job at the resort and be just as happy.
Yet his parents wanted more for him then being a simple hotel worker, they saw in him the potential for much more they just couldn’t figure out how to get him to care. By the end of middle school his parents sat him down and told him it was time to get serious and start working towards getting into a college. Anuenue didn’t want to fight with his parents or disappoint them. He tried to do a few things that would look good to colleges like going out for the track team. While he enjoyed running and showed real talent with a javelin he liked those activities for fun he didn’t like how serious everyone expected him to be about it, or how he was always supposed to be giving 110% just in case a college scout was there watching. With his classes he was always “forgetting” to do assignments or all of the proper reading for class. He managed to skate by with B’s and C’s in school, but as his parents told him they wouldn’t mind those grades were it not for the fact that they knew he could do better. They hoped that by putting more pressure on him he would find the drive to succeed, but really it only made things worse.
Anuenue really didn’t like the pressure his parents were putting on him, but he didn’t want to start problems with them by complaining. He kept wishing for excuses to get out of doing all the work they wanted him to do, and really that’s when it all started. First his big track meet was canceled due to rain, then the next one, really it could have been coincidence. Then it started to rain whenever Anuenue had something that he didn’t want to do like mowing the lawn, and he came to realize that it was no mere coincidence. Around this time the people from Pantheon found his parents and filled their heads with promises of a school that would make him succeed. They immediately signed away permission for him to go to the school. Anuenue was really sad that he would have to leave all of his friends behind, and vowed that he would come back one day even if he had to steal a canoe and paddle his way back to the island.
Anuenue began feeling homesick before he even left, but he is trying to keep a positive attitude. The school is only temporary, and he should try to have fun while he is there. He is slowly but surely adjusting to his new life, although the idea of being a God still kind of freaks him out.
