Re-introduction
I should probably re-introduction this character. I've been away a long time, even if he hasn't.
This is Edmund Carlisle, more commonly called 'Ned', pb'ed by Tom Hiddleston. He's 33, London (well Crofton Park a suburb of London) born and raised. His mother is a dentist, his father is an investment banker, he's the middle of three children (Olivia - the recently departed livcar and younger bother Henry - the not so recently departed henrycar). He's the husband of adelemay, his bride of eight months and the adopted parent of her brother Asher, aged nearly 12. He is a graduate of Goldsmiths, a rabid Chelsea fan and current man of leisure--if leisure means running a massive household with wife, son, bulldog, two cats and juggling school and football practices with his own voice work work and Adele-May's horse jumping schedule.
He is a former radio PA/Voice Actor/Announcer for the BBC and currently only does voice work due to an unexpected turn of fortune when he lived Stateside that left him with much more money than he has any business having and co-owner of a flat in New York City. He spent time in LA and New York but surprisingly met his wife while he was working the BBC's coverage of the London Olympics. He has been a friend of Honey Gibson-Moore (honeygibson) since he was a teenager thanks to his sister's former involvement in horse-jumping. He is an avid runner, doing a minimum of 5K a day but usually more around 10K. He currently lives right behind Greenwich Park, close enough where the marker for the Prime Meridian actually runs through his front and back gardens (that's front and backyard for us Americans).
He is acerbic and can be very outspoken when he feels the need arises. Even though in his youth he was as libertine as they come (and still is to tell the truth, he and Addie have routine date nights down at the local 'gentleman's club'), he quite enjoys his calm and comfortable family man role. He loves being a father and the only reason he and Adele aren't littered in children of their own after being together for three years are due to problems in conception thanks to his least favorite person, his father-in-law Ashby Calder and his horrific abuse of his daughter. Not much sticks to him, though he will take you to task if you insult his family. He made a career of being a smug, charming sexually predatory bastard in the past and doesn't shy away from it. He also has a very quiet and fairly well undealt with past of abuse from a former teacher that he completely blames himself for happening and his parents and family weren't much better about dealing with it either (which is why is his hyper sensitive about listening to anything Asher tells him and dealing with it)
Ned comes with a passelful of connections: besides his wife adelemay, honeygibson and her husband smoore, willywally is an old mate of his from his LA days, esmemoore & mrclark are friends, miavincent is his son's favorite babysitter, pwalsh is Asher's social worker, and rfmartinez & bradygotback are old friends. I'm hoping that though I'm not at nearly 100% (try mostly 60%) I can be around more often with this idiot.
