I should start this off that my alter egos are a FUN story, and not me showing signs of psychosis. I guess these are better characters or nicknames but alter egos make it sound slicker, right?
Reebs (Origin: high school, from the students) Arguably the first alter ego, Reebs is the competitive one, the atheltic one, the one who wants to toss the football around and then trash-talks the opposite team. He's the loud one, the defensive one, the one who can't be wrong and yet there's something lovable about this psuedo-jock who clearly made the JV team but quit, claiming he was 'too good' even though he was third string. Hribstar (Origin: high school, from friends): Hribstar is the pop star, the creative soul who is always churning out material for the masses. Hribstar is ready for the people, a pleasant obnoxious that boosts people up. Hribstar is a visual learner and a rather visual person, offering up eye-candy. Perhaps his only downfall is that he's pretty busy and sometimes forgets to attend to his friends. Father Time (Origin: a student government meeting in college): Father Time appears to make time, doing the impossible in a short amount of time. He's introspective, quieter, peaceful and calm. He'd probably wear a mister-peanut monocle and carry a cane. He bends time on the regular and has excellent advice. Perhaps the only thing on the weary with Father Time is that he's a bit intimidating and on the wrong days, a bit stand-offish. Matilda (Origin: my roommate didn't want to tell her mother she was living with dudes, so her name for her mother was Matilda): Matilda is a social justice warrior who enjoys excellent coffee, bookstores and intellectual conversations. Matilda is bold, brash and ready for action, words are the claws and facts are the talons. If Matilda had the time, there would be more composting, more gardening and definitely more speeches (definitely the weakness of Matilda, pretty much the equivalent of Kyle from South Park: speeches and social justice everywhere!). Todd (Origin: a forty year old woman at the local Irish pub gave me this nickname): Todd's a professional kind person who would go out of his way to make sure you were taken care of. Need a favor, need a hand? Todd is here. Todd's the perfect gentlemen, he's a romantic and ready to treat you right. Heck, he's perfect for the parents. Todd's major flaw though is that he's kind of...well, spiceless. The other four alter egos thankfully help him out.
