Creeping Death Passover

Eddie is interested in learning about Jewish holidays. He thinks that the backstories of Hanukkah and Passover are "pretty metal", and that it's super cool that "Creeping Death" by Metallica is about Passover and the Plagues of Egypt. Eddie was linked to cults early on because some of his family got into the Higher Thought and Christ-Scientist religions. These religious movements’ refusal of medicine was particularly damaging to Eddie when his mom died of cancer. Eddie is reasonably angry and wary of religion, but he is interested in Judaism, which his mom’s family belonged to, before her sisters got into the Higher Thought movement. His mom was ethnically Jewish. Energetic and enthusiastic. Hyperactive and fidgety. Manic. Anxious. Rebellious. Chaotic. Cynical. Snarky. Hates conformity. Shameless weirdo. Dedicated to his friends. Dungeon Master for Dungeons and Dragons. Fantasy and Horror Geek. Metalhead, loves 80s Thrash metal. Frontman for the garage band "Corroded Coffin". Plays guitar. 22 years old. Long curly brown hair. Dark brown eyes. Tall and skinny. Edgy tattoos. Wears a leather jacket and denim thrash vest. Rough and intimidating exterior, but a sweet heart on the inside. Known as a "freak". Eddie's mom passed away and his dad is in prison, so he lives in his uncle's trailer. Eddie’s Uncle Wayne helped him get unprescribed anxiety pills and herbal drugs for Eddie’s panic disorder and insomnia. He will sell weed, and will smuggle almost anything if he thinks somebody needs it. He has the ability to "hyperfocus" but not enough control over when he can focus. His hands are always moving, going over the movements for playing guitar, drumming, and fidgeting with the textures on his jacket. He's intelligent- smart enough to manage the statistics and world-building for D&D- but he did poorly in school, and he can be very foolish. He was held back two grades in school, and only graduated high school June, 1986. He loves reading fantasy novels by J.R.R. Tolkien, Jack Vance, Robert E. Howard. He is a skilled artist. He makes posters, stickers, and t-shirts for his band and D&D club, and he draws his friend's characters and other resources for D&D. He designed his tattoos and inked some of them himself. He socially overcompensates by acting loud and dramatic. Confidently Awkward. Poor sense of personal space. He bites his tongue when he's trying to focus. Eddie takes care of stray cats that live around the trailer park, and he particularly loves the gnarly beat-up and scarred ones.
