Bailey is my oldest character still in use. I think he's even older than Darkmoon.
He's changed a lot in some ways, and in other ways he's just grown up.
He married a girl who got pregnant by him--Amy--for the sake of the kids. They had been best friends as children but she became completely infatuated with him and took advantage of him while he was high and neglected to use protection. His three youngest--Charolette, Caroline, and Tristan--are hers. His older girl, Tibby, isn't actually his biologically but he had her dumped on him by her negligent mother. Eventually Amy kicked him out--she was sick of him sleeping with other men, but knew full well he was gay when they married.
Used to date Jazz, has an active sexual relationship with Gage.
IDs as androgynous/gender null. Underdresses always, and crossdresses frequently.
His parents are divorced-long time coming-and he's the oldest of three children. The younger two are far younger--youngest being a toddler and second youngest being...hm...I don't know. Maybe...7? He refuses to talk to his mother anymore due to their constant severe issues between eachother, most of which are her fault/making. His parents also married out of obligation; his mother had gotten pregnant at 19. Bailey rarely talks to his father either since they only get along half the time.
Despite continued issues with alcohol and emotional and physical health problems--anxiety and inferiority complexes mostly, but also immune deficiency and metabolic and skeletal issues (hence his skinniness/anatomy), he's a good worker, locally successful artist/writer, and pretty hot model and drag queen (drag name Missy Skeleton).
Bailey moved out as soon as he could, partially kicked out...had no friends in school, a lot of phobias, drugs and drama and other problems.
Also also, he's friends with a ton of people, closest with Carlos and Lindsay and Carlos' parents and Jazz and Gage.

Fashion: GLAM and DANDY. That is all you need to know.
Pinstripe, suits, girl’s AND boy’s shirts, skinny jeans, leggings, boots, heels, hair clips, fishnet, skirts or dresses, vests, both bright and dark makeup, glitter, corsets/ waist cinchers, furs, cigarette holders. Underdresses; is a practicing transvestite fetishist and public crossdresser. Is androgynous-genderqueer, which is reflected in his fashion. Likes black, purple, silver, blue, grey, white, and both subdued and bright colors. Fashion varies from Victorian gothic to bright and colorful 80’s, but always with elements of glam or dandyism. Culturally he’s been exposed to the more asian side of goth (NOT. LOLITA. EVER. So out of character omg) so that can be reflected. Spiky stuff often worn. Often wears gloves and a mask in public because of phobia of germs and his delicate health. Two black collars (spiked on top, bell underneath) or one combining the above elements are almost always worn (he has other, more colorful ones too). HE’S A BIG OL GLAMFUR AND A DRAG QUEEN, HAFE FUN WITH IT.
Personality: Silly, flamboyant, outgoing, kind to a fault. Easily given to dark moods. Incredibly nervous, prone to breakdowns. Often ill, coughing and sneezing frequently. Very intelligent. ADHD, slight narcissist, inferiority complex, insomniac, and prone to anxiety. Phobic. Cuddly. Good with kids and pets, except dogs can make him nervous. Super gay nasal voice and annoying laugh. Sometimes puts on annoying arrogant airs but he’s a good guy. He loathes his mother but doesn't exactly love his father, both were negligent—his upbringing bred his gender, disorders, mode of dress, simultaneously low and high self-esteem, attitude towards sex, attitude towards work, and most of all, his need for constant attention. He is a hard, uncomplaining worker but everything in him screams aristocrat—it took him a while to realize he is not “above” many jobs. Sexually, he tends to be a thrill seeker and gets bored of people easily, often having several lovers at once which he drops at a whim. Transvestite and submissive, enjoys mild humiliation and spanking, meets most of his lovers through drag or his modeling job. Has very little free time, like...ever.
Drugs: Pot, catnip, alcohol (goes on drunken sprees lasting months, followed by periods of “reform”). His favorites are blush wine, rum, watermelon vodka, sourpuss, and super sugared absinthe. Rare use of opium and hallucinogens, occasionally harder drugs, has had serious addiction issues in the past. Little to no self-control with cravings (drugs and sex).
Likes: 80’s nostalgia, graphic novels (SANDMAN, Fables, Paradise Kiss), fashion, cooking and eating food, drawing, painting and animating, drag, acting, white chocolate and fancy chocolates, video games, conventions, storytelling, fairy tales, horror, Silent Hill, fantasy, his heritage, concerts, hugging and snuggling EVERYONE, Pee Wee’s Playhouse, thrift store hunting, My Little Ponies and Carebears. Flapjack, Adventure Time!, cats/kittens, babies, theatre, film, history, lingustics, culture, goff stuff, shopping, Katamari, Robert Smith, Resident Evil, genderfuck, transvestism.
Dislikes: Reality TV, the fam, death (fears but is fascinated with it), big bodies of water/swimming (phobic), high bridges (phobic), dirty public places—especially public restrooms ( germ phobic), having his tails pulled, poor grammar and handwriting, baths (annoying b/c of all his fur), being mistaken for Chinese (he will cut a bitch), eating foods high in fat or grain content (food issues), red meats, planes (he needs a sedative to go on them).
