| Bio: | This is a journal intended for use in a Roleplaying Game. Roger is a character from RENT created by Jonothan Larson and played originally and in the adapted movie by Adam Pascal. I do not profit from this journal. Also I use songs for Roger from Adam's albums, Civillian and Model Prisoner :) Contact information - briegegrant@yahoo.com dundalkmalki on AIM Character: Roger Davis Description: Roger is tall and relitively thin with short fair coloured hair. He dresses usually fairly typically of a faded rock star that never quite was. Fandom: RENT Point of Cannon : A few months after the end of the Musical. Mimi has since died and he doesn't know where Mark is. He's been missing for over a month. History - Roger was quite a successful up and coming musician. Until a woman called April led him down an unpleasant path. Drugs and worse. She died leaving him a note to tell him he had AIDS. "One song - He had the world at his feet, One song, in the eyes of a young girl" He got worse, spiraling into addiction, and it took an intervention from his friends to get him into Rehab. And it took his best friend Mark Cohen to pull him back to himself. And then there was Mimi. A dancer at a strip club, still only 19. But he fell for her much as he tried not to. "I should tell you, I should tell you...NO...Another time, Another place, our temprature would climb, there'd be a long embrace" "Take your powder, Take your Candle, Your sweet whisper, I just can't handle" Much as he tried to pull away from her, She wouldn't take no for an answer and he was glad she didn't. "There is no future, there is no past, I live each moment as my last" "Would you light my candle, what are you staring at. Nothing your hair in the moonlight. You look familiar" They were in love and for a while it was bliss. But Roger recognized the signs of addiction in her. And tried to do for her what Mark had for him. Tried to intervene. "Excuse me, If I'm off track, But if your so wise then tell me, Why do you need smack" "You didn't miss me you wont miss her, You'll never lack for customers" But there were relapses and accusations and Roger, never being one to like facing his problems ran. "Mimi's got her baggage too - So do you" But it was in Santa Fe he found himself. "One song glory...Mimi your eyes" He returned and his Mimi was missing, He searched everywhere for her. "Found his song if he could just find Mimi - i tried, You know I tried" And eventually they found her, freezing and broken and dying. But before he lost her Roger sang to her. Told her how much he loved her. "You were the song all along, And before the song dies. I should tell you, I should tell you. I have always loved you. You can see it in my eyes..." He thought she was gone, but miraculously he'd not lost her, a reprieve. But a short one. "But I know blue, only blue, lonely blue, Within me blue...Without You" Mark wasn't there when she finally had nothing left. "Your always preaching not to be numb when thats how you thrive" Traits: Roger is hurting, Both from the loss of his Mimi, his muse and his love, and his best friend Mark whom he hasn't seen in over a month. And when Roger hurts, he writes, but when he hurts this badly he finds he can't and so he turns back to the cause of most of his hurt. Drugs. "From the pretty boy frontman, who wasted opportunity" It took him nearly half a year last time to pull himself back, and he knows its stupid, knows its idiotic. But she's gone and he's gone and no matter what Collins, Maureen or Joanne, even Benny have tried he's just...tired Its been too hard and so one weekend he goes back. Follow's the Man. Just once won't hurt. "Got any C man, got any D man, got any smack any horse any jugie boogie boy any blow" One night where he' doesn't need to think. "Just tighten those shoulders, just clench your jaw till you frown, Just don't let go or you may drown" And thats how its been for over a month. I'm willin', I'm Illin, I gotta get my sickness off, Gotta run gotta hide.. | |||||||||
