STRENGTHS:
Observant: Ellis is always the curious kind of man. Because of this he's always paying attention to what's going on around him. Whether it seems like he is or not. He even enjoys wearing headphones with no music playing just to eavesdrop on other peoples conversations. Ellis is especially observant in a one on one setting with someone else. He takes into account their style, their manner of speaking, what music they listen to, what foods they eat, even down to the way they sit.
Quick Wit: Ellis seems to always have a response for everything. He's got a silver tongue and a very quick wit about him. He'll never miss a beat and seems to always have some sort of remark. Perhaps something sweet and charming with that heart melting smile of his. Or perhaps it's something sharp, sarcastic, or downright mean.
Charming: Ellis has this sort of charm about him that seems to just come naturally. He knows how to talk himself out of as much trouble as he talks himself into it. Perhaps it's his smile, the way he laughs, the warm and genuine look in his eyes when he listens to someone. Perhaps it's his confidence and go-getter attitude. No matter what it is Ellis just seems to know how to melt hearts.
WEAKNESSES: tw:drug, death, and alcohol mention
Lazy: Ellis doesn't like hard work. In fact he despises it. He's never had to work for anything a day in his life. Everything has always been handed to him. All the money he has, every nice car, his clothing, even the people he's had relationships with. He's never had to work for anything. It's made him spoiled. He expects everything to just be handed to him. Everything just works out for him. When things don't go the way he wants he becomes agitated and bored. If he needs to put in more than the bare minimum he'll quickly drop whatever it is a move on to something else.
Flighty: Ellis is a loving and loyal friend. He does his best to be there for those he cares about, really he does. But a lot of people know him as very flighty. He's known for canceling plans last minute because something else caught his interest. Or just forgetting things entirely. With people or things he doesn't care about he's even worse. All too willing to leave a person high and dry the moment they lose even a fraction of his interest.
Reckless: Ellis cares very little about his own health an safety. He will often stay awake for days on end until his body forcibly crashes. He drinks often, experiments with drugs, hooks up with random strangers he just met. He'll even jump in the car with someone he met less than twenty minutes prior. While clearly he cares a lot about his appearance his own health and well being mean next to nothing for him. If pressed about caring about his own safety he'll shrug it off claiming he'd rather live fast and leave behind a pretty corpse than spend his life constantly worried about what was going to happen.
OVERALL PERSONALITY:
Lighthearted, fun, and flirty. Ellis is the epitome of the phrase, "Here for a good time. Not a long time." He loves to party and loves meeting new people. He's very sweet and friendly upon first meeting. Always complimentary and charming, it's hard not to love him. Ellis always lives for the moment. Never paying any mind to what the future could hold. Those who are close to Ellis however, say his emotions can change pretty rapidly. One moment he could be happy and cracking jokes then seemingly out of nowhere he becomes irritable and aggressive. His flighty nature has made many of even his closest friends lose hope in him entirely. While he always seems excited to make plans in the moment he often cancels them last minute or forgets about them entirely mere moments later.
While he seems flakey and undependable Ellis is actually a very loving and caring individual. He notices and remembers little details about the people he cares about. Always bringing them or sending their favorite food to work or their house. Buying gifts from something as simple as their favorite flowers to as extravagant as a brand new car. He never forgets a birthday or anniversary or special occasion and always makes time for them. Ellis is deeply loving and affectionate. Always willing to be there for a hug or shoulder to cry on. He might not ever be the best at giving advice but for as much as he runs his mouth he knows when to shut up and listen. Still, that too can change at the drop of a hat. At the first perceived sign of abandonment or thought that someone might not like him he changes completely. He becomes cold, abrasive. Spitting hateful, venomous words at them like a viper. He'd rather be the first to leave than risk getting his heart broken.
While he might act as if it doesn't bother him deep down Ellis feels alone and afraid. Seeking out love and validation wherever he can find it. Even in the arms of a complete stranger. He's terrified of being abandoned but would rather run first than risk being left alone again. Feeling it's easier that way. So no one could have the upper hand on him. He rarely ever expresses his true emotions. Tending to keep them bottled so that he can continue being the life of the party. Because nothing hurts when your head is in the clouds.

HISTORY: CW: Mention of death, child neglect, drugs, and alcohol abuse
Ellis Wayne Bridges is the oldest son of his politician father Thomas Wayne Bridges and his famous actress mother Eliza Hope Bridges. He was born on a warm summer day in mid June to the newly married, deeply in love couple. They couldn't have been happier when their son was born. Ellis was their pride and joy. Especially for his mother. The first few years of his life were wonderful. He was spoiled with love, toys, affection, clothes, everything he wanted. The best private schools, the best tutors, tons of friends, and as always he was his mothers perfect little boy. While she loved both of her sons there was a clear favoritism to Ellis.
Shortly before his younger sister was born his fathers political career took over Thomas' life. He became closed off, secretive, angrier. He drank more and worked later. When he was home he was still practically absent. Most of his time was spent in his office. He completely ignored his children and his pregnant wife. He wasn't even there for the birth of his own daughter. Eliza and Thomas fought more and more as she begged him to spend time with his family. When he was twelve Eliza was driving her children home with their aunt after a fun night out roller skating. It had begun raining hard and it was almost impossible to see. Before Eliza had a chance to pull over and wait out the rain a semi slammed into the side of their vehicle. Their car and the semi slid across the wet road. They flipped several times before finally landing upside down in a ditch.
Both his mother and aunt had been killed in the impact while Ellis and his sister Jessica were hospitalized. Kaiden was the only one to come out with some bruises and a broken leg. Ellis and Jessica were released for the funeral but it seemed the death of his wife and almost losing two of his children made everything worse for Thomas. He neglected them more. Would spend days out of the house leaving young Ellis to care for his younger siblings. When he did come home he would return in a drunk rage. Making Ellis hide him and his siblings until the man passed out somewhere in the house.
Unable to cope with the death of his mother Ellis began making friends with all the wrong people. He turned to drugs and alcohol at an early age but never let it effect caring for his siblings. He waited until both his siblings were in college before he finally left home. So they'd never have to deal with their father without him. Ellis moved to los Eurosia when he was twenty five. Just to get away from his father without being far from his siblings.
His father has sobered up now and tried to make amends with his children but Ellis won't hear it. He still accepts his money though. His father deposits several thousand dollars into Ellis' account every week just to make sure that he's well taken care of. Though Ellis feels he's trying to use money as a way to buy back his forgiveness.
