Name:Peter Pan
Age:Eternally 10
Height/Weight:4'3"/65lbs
Eyes:Bright Blue
Hair:Light Brown
Character description/personality:Peter is mainly an exaggerated stereotype of a boastful and careless boy.He is quick to point out how great he is even when such claims are questionable.Peter has a nonchalant,devil-may-care,attitude and is fearlessly cocky when it comes to putting himself in danger.
Persuasion:Neutral
Type of Creature:Immortal Child
Powers:Peters primary power is his eternal youth of which is directly tied in with Neverland.Secondary abilities,though no less spectacular...just ask Peter he'll tell you,are his ability to fly,via Faerie Dust,and extraordinary dexterity,the ability to dodge even the quickest attacks,then there are his lesser abilities.These include,but are not limited to,being highly skilled at swordsmanship having remarkably keen eyesight and hearing and a nearly perfect talent for mimicry of not only voices but sounds as well.
Weaknesses:As stated above Peter is completely tied in to Neverland to the point that,if he stayed away from it for too long,he'd grow up and lose his abilities little by little until he became a normal human being.Aside from this he must have a constant supply of Faerie Dust or he'll,eventually,lose the ability to fly.While his utter lack of fear and nearly unshakable confidence can be considered strengths they are a double edged sword as they are easily exploitable weaknesses to be used against him.
History:
Peter makes night-time calls on Kensington, London listening in on Mrs. Mary Darling's bedtime stories by the open window.One night Peter is spotted and,while trying to escape,he loses his shadow.On returning to claim it Peter wakes Mary's daughter Wendy Darling.Wendy succeeds in reattaching his shadow to him and Peter learns that she knows lots of bedtime stories.He invites her to Neverland to be a mother to his Lost Boys who happen to be children who were lost in Kensington Gardens.Wendy agrees and her brothers John and Michael go along.
Their magical flight to Neverland is followed by many adventures.The children are blown out of the air by a cannon and Wendy is nearly killed by the Lost Boy Tootles.Peter and the Lost Boys build a little house for Wendy to live in while she recuperates a structure that,to this day,is called a Wendy House.Soon John and Michael adopt the ways of the Lost Boys.
Peter welcomes Wendy to his underground home and she immediately assumes the role of mother figure.Peter takes the Darlings on several adventures the first truly dangerous one occurring at Mermaids' Lagoon.At Mermaids' Lagoon, Peter and the Lost Boys save the princess Tiger Lily and become involved in a battle with the pirates including the evil Captain Hook.Peter is wounded when Hook claws him. He believes he will die,stranded on a rock when the tide is rising,but he views death as "an awfully big adventure".Luckily a bird allows him to use her nest as a boat and Peter sails home.
Because he has saved Tiger Lily the Indians are devoted to him guarding his home from the next imminent pirate attack.Meanwhile Wendy begins to fall in love with Peter,at least as a child,and asks Peter what kind of feelings he has for her.Peter says that he is like her faithful son.One day while telling stories to the Lost Boys and her brothers,John and Michael,Wendy recalls about her parents and then decides to take them back and return to England.Unfortunately,and unbeknownst to Peter,Wendy and the boys are captured by Captain Hook who also tries to poison Peter's medicine while the boy is asleep.When Peter awakes he learns from the fairy Tinker Bell that Wendy has been kidnapped and,in an effort to please Wendy,he goes to drink his medicine.Tink does not have time to warn him of the poison and instead drinks it herself causing her near death.Peter invokes the sympathy of children who might be dreaming of him, and Tinker Bell is saved.
Peter heads to the ship.On the way he encounters the ticking crocodile and decides to copy the tick so any animals will recognise it and leave him unharmed.He does not realise that he is still ticking as he boards the ship,where Hook cowers,mistaking him for the crocodile.While the pirates are searching for the croc Peter sneaks into the cabin to steal the keys and frees the Lost Boys.When the pirates investigate a noise in the cabin Peter defeats them.When he finally reveals himself he and Hook fall to the climactic battle which Peter easily wins.He kicks Hook into the jaws of the waiting crocodile but the wicked pirate promises that he will return.Then Peter takes control of the ship and sails the seas back to London.
Wendy decides that her place is at home much to the joy of her heartsick mother.Wendy then brings all the boys but Peter back to London.Before Wendy and her brothers arrive at their house Peter flies ahead to try and bar the window,so Wendy will think her mother has forgotten her,but when he learns of Mrs Darling's distress he bitterly leaves the door unlocked and flies away.Peter returns briefly and he meets Mrs. Darling who has agreed to adopt the Lost Boys.She offers to adopt Peter as well but Peter refuses afraid they will "catch him and make him a man".Though nobody quite remembers it Mary Darling knew Peter when she was a girl and she is left slightly changed when Peter leaves.
Peter promises to return for Wendy every spring leaving Wendy looking out through the window and saying into space "You won't forget to come for me, Peter?Please,please don't forget".
All of this occured in the early 1900s and,obviously,Wendy grew up and forgot about Peter when she did.The years passed,with no Wendy and No Hook and no Lost Boys,and Peter spent the time from then and now playing endless games with the Indians and mermaids and Faeries but,eventually,even this became tedious and he,finally,remembered his adventures with Wendy and Hook and soon decided that it was time to,once again,visit the land where he'd first met Wendy Darling,defeating the disadvantage of losing his powers once leaving Neverland by coating himself with mud from the shore of the mermaids lagoon and making sure to have a large suply of Faerie dust as well,expecting things to be just as he remembered them.
