Overview
Allen carries himself like he would rather you ignore him so he can blend into the crowd. Most of his appearance and body language tries to broadcast his intention to be left alone: head down looking at his shoes or the ground, black hair falling over his brown eyes, ill-fitting clothing that was out of style seven years ago, back bowed like he grew too tall too quickly when he was younger. Add his quiet voice to his appearance and it would seem that he's just another sullen young guy in his mid-20s who might not be worth the trouble.
If you get to know him, you find that he'd rather know more about you than tell you about himself. He tells the barest facts about himself: He never knew his parents. He was raised in Queens by an aunt and uncle who resented him and made him run their household. He ran away from home and eventually found his way to Vermont.
If you're a Changeling, you don't actually get a lot more: His Durance was much like his home life before he was taken, only a hundred times worse. That's mostly what he'll tell you if you ask: either he doesn't remember much more than that, or he just simply will not talk about it.
He seems truly happy when he is working with his hands. He's fond of crafting, and true friends will get handmade gifts on special occasions (mostly jewelry and small statuary). He's recently gotten a job at Weissmann & Schwartz, a construction and architectural business in Fort Brunsett, working as a part of the permanent construction crew.
