About Roma

[romatomato]

 Profile/Bio

Name: Lovino Romano Vargas. He dislikes the name Lovino since to him  it reminds him of the female name Lavinia (of which Lovina is a variant) which means “mother of the Romans” it also reminds him of Rovino which means “I ruin”, the name could of possibly originated from the Roman name Lovinus. It doesn’t help that as a child many people when angry or frustrated at him called him Rovino. He prefers Romano much more, which originated from the Roman name Romanus and goes by that.  

Nicknames: Roma, Princess, Lovi, Pomodoro and Rovino. 

Nation: South Italy, his domain though includes though everything south of Rome which was an inheritance from Rome and it also includes Sardinia and Sicily.

Age: Physically 23, in reality he’s about 2,060 or at least that’s how long ago  Rome found him in a old vineyard in what is now modern day Calabria

Height and weight: He's 5,7 ft or 170 cm and he weighs about 130 lbs normally.

Birthday: He celebrates it March 17th and his zodiac is Pisces.

Sexuality: He says he’s bisexual but in reality he’d be about a 4 or nowadays maybe even a 5 on the Kinsly scale. So he prefers (and has more experience) with men, despite the fact he dislikes them. 

Residence: He has a few homes but his main one at the moment is a small house near Naples, but not in the city itself.

Health: Rather poor, he's constantly feeling under the weather nowadays and gets ill easily due to his bad economy. He tries not to let it show.

Appearance: He has a heart-shaped youthful face with a soft jawline and a chin that’s somewhat pointy and delicate. He has high cheekbones, though his cheeks are a bit full (Though not as chubby as they were as a kid) so they’re not too prominent  His eyes are rather intense and are hazel. As for expression he's usually frowning, looking displeased, pouting, or has a neutral expression. He rarely smiles and he tends to get red easily when embarrassed, angry, or flustered much to his irritation. He has brown hair with a good deal of auburn in it as well. He spends a good deal of time in the morning taking care of it, but it tends to only slightly wave if he hasn’t bathed in some time and there’s that one curl that sticks out no matter what in the part, it’s an erogenous zone. He also keeps the rest of his body well groomed since he hates body hair and finds it disgusting. When he stands he usually is slouched or in some odd position where his hands are on his hips or his weight is on one leg, he tends to either give off a air of hostility, ease, or nervousness depending on his mood. His body shape is a a thin rectangle one. He doesn’t have much muscle, only some lean muscle on his arms and legs from labor in farms and other places he does sometimes, since he’s not one to work out besides playing some football from time to time. The rest of him is pretty soft, though he’s not fat. His hands and feet are rough and calloused, due to work and a habit of walking barefoot sometimes.

Scars: He has two notable scars, one on his hip which happened with the bombings of Naples in the second world war and the other over his heart which appeared when the Adreantine massacre occurred. He's somewhat uncomfortable with having them seen, and he dislikes having them touched. 

Religion: He’s Roman Catholic, and although he's not perfect at all by far he's sincere about his faith. He's also rather superstitious. 

Speech and Language: He speaks fluent Italian, though whenever he goes up north people can tell he’s from the south from his speech. He also speaks Neapolitan and Sicilian, as well as the other dialects/languages from the south. He speaks Spanish and Catalan as well fluently and is good at French, though he dislikes it. His English is good, but he has a accent and his vocabulary is limited. He can speak some Greek, Arabic, and Latin as well. He speaks  generally very informally, and uses a lot of swearing though the more blasphemous swears in Italian he steers clear of. He also tends to slur and shorten his words a lot.

Personality: 

Profession: Other then the work he has to do and is given as a nation he has other professions as well. They're pretty much odd jobs he picks up when he finds the time and will to do them. He sometimes runs a fruit and vegetable stand. Also at times he helps farmers and fishermen in their work, lately he's been doing this for free since things have been rather rough lately. He also sometimes plays the organetto in the streets.  

Hobbies: He has a number of things that he enjoys doing. Some of these include: naps, cooking/baking, eating good food, swimming in the ocean or lakes (he prefers those to pools any day), singing, dancing, pick pocketing , listening to music, farming/working in the fields, gardening, fishing, and sometimes painting and making pottery, though he never shows what he does makes to any one

Clothing: He usually wears things like skinny jeans, boots,  scarves, slightly fitted shirts, and tank-tops. Sometimes too he'll continue to wear and adapt older styles that were more popular in the past like suspenders and pageboy hats. When he's working in the fields, fishing or gardening he dresses in a more causal manner. For formal or business occasions he simply prefers a well-tailored suit. He doesn't really wear designer clothing either for a few reasons. It's rather expensive and he's not doing too well in terms of money so he can't really afford it. He also considers some things that are designer rather tacky, and lastly he thinks of them as clothes that wealthy snobbish people wear and he has a certain distrust for those who are wealthy. 

Other notes/details: He smokes a good amount due to stress, he also drinks a lot but recently he's been trying to cut back. He's very fond of flowers, the ocean, and has a big sweet tooth. He owns five cats and is rather fond of the animals as well. He has a banged up red Fiat, that despite it's condition is still in good working order. He's also very fond of fairy tales and myths, especially Greek and Roman mythology. His two favorite myths are the myths of the abduction of Persephone and the story of Psyche and Cupid.
