Don't wait
Till I'm stuck in limbo

OVERALL PERSONALITY:
Monroe is incredibly intelligent and disciplined. Always has been. When he's committed to something, he will stop at nothing to complete it. What's made things difficult is the power he developed and his avoidance of using it. He has strong morals and doesn't believe in invading the privacy of others by going into their dreams and manipulating them. He doesn't sleep much to avoid doing what he deems as unacceptable. Privacy is important to him, and he wouldn't want anybody in his head like that, even if it's just dreams. Dreams aren't always just dreams, he knows that much. His exhaustion and irritability from his self-induced insomnia have taken quite the toll on him. He's stubborn in a true Earth sign fashion. Once he's decided something, he's unmoving. He's a realist almost to a fault of being pessimistic and takes time to warm up to people and show who he is to them. A lot of people mistakenly think he's aloof and lazy due to what

HISTORY:
Monroe's power started showing when he was a teenager and from there, things got messy. He immediately hated it, wanted it to go away and would spend hours researching how he could get rid of it. Most people would find dream walking or dream manipulation relatively harmless, but not Monroe. He finds it to be an extreme invasion of privacy and refuses to do it. He's developed awful insomnia over the last ten years and a huge reliance on caffeine.
He tried to attend college after high school, but dropped out after a year and a half. His exhaustion played a big role in that, and Monroe hasn't forgiven himself for dropping out. After all, he was a business major and it had become his goal to open and run a coffee shop. Sure, he could do that without a business degree, but if he couldn't even finish school, how would he run a business?
He settled for working at a local coffee shop as a barista. After all, the perks of free coffee are helpful and it's the closest he can get to his original goal, but he can't help but feel like a constant failure. He's learned to live with his power, but sometimes he's worried he's not really living at all.
