Personality
Gilbert is quite the hooligan. He likes picking fights and bullying others. When he's able to he wouldn't pass the chance to tease others and embarrass them, because of this he often gets detention. He has the illusion that he's the awesomest person alive and will tell this to anyone whenever he can, no matter how many times he had already told the other. Besides his huge ego, he seems to be bad at making friends even though he does want them. Thus instead he decides it's way more awesome being alone and is often the one cheering himself up.
background story
Being a noisy child he often got himself in a lot of fights and trouble. His parents always had to apologize others for his behavior which he hated to see. It never stopped him though, for some reason he loved fighting and winning so he couldn't help himself.
He grew up, getting in more and more fights and by now his parents were getting tired of it. They sent him to a German boarding school that promised them he would be 'fixed' in no time. While this happened, the WWII started and his father had to fight in the war like all men did. Gilbert heard of this and couldn't wait to get in the army himself and fight against the Allied forces. That was what they were teaching him at school after all.
Like everyone in Germany, he believed in the words of their leader and hated all the countries who worked against the nation.
Of course, Gilbert knew nothing of the outside world aside from the stories he heard from their highly Nazi-influenced teachers and the radio inside the school. They were never allowed to go out, so he knew nothing of the cruelty that happened outside of the gates. Gilbert only knew of the few friends he had that they suddenly left for reasons unknown to him, other then how the teachers kept calling them 'untermensch'.
Through the years he had not once seen his mother or father except through mail. That was until the American soldiers came barging in.
All the teachers were captured and the students sent back to their parents. When he returned however, he quickly found out his father died in the war and his mother was an 'untermensch'. She managed to hide the fact she was Jewish because Gilbert's father protected her by pretending to be a follower of the Furher, but after his death she, and Gilbert since he was half Jewish according to the Nazis, could no longer be safe in Germany. Gilbert didn't really know what the problem was but he didn't mind his mother being an untermensch.
His mother however was afraid he would and made sure he didn't leave her side so he wouldn't go off telling people what she was. She took Gilbert with her and fled to France, where she hid and somehow managed to escape the hell that is WWII. At first Gilbert hated being in France and made sure to express his dislike whenever he could. He got into more fights then ever, which was often started by the French kids who called him a 'Nazi-boy'. Only after he understood that what the Nazi's were doing was actually terrible, he hated the children for calling him that, thus caused him to beat the kids up(Or getting beaten up).
He felt guilty towards his mother but never knew how to help her out, other then helping her hide from the Nazi's.
Soon after the war ended however, his mother couldn't take care of her troublemaker son on her own and had to hand him over to the French boarding school in the hopes he would grow up to be a successful man. Of course Gilbert couldn't possibly change even at his age and continued being childish and loud. He was quickly known to be one of the bullies in the school and if anyone related him to the Nazi's, they would end up in the nurse office soon after.
Extras
He's a bully, but he mainly goes after ones weaker then him or on equal grounds(he's not that stupid). He also has a pet bird but you probably won't see much of it~ He named it Gilbird! Other then that he's an albino and actually really wants friends, but doesn't know how to make them. (Especially considering most dislike Germans.)
Edit: I forgot to mention this, but Gilbert will be smoking then and there in the rp (because smoking is cool amirite?)
RP sample
Gilbert looked around the classroom. The teacher was giving them a test about something he didn't really care about, nor did he actually know any of the answers, so instead he looked for his next victim.
Grinning when he noticed a rather nerdy student two tables in front of him, he grabbed for a rubber band he managed to keep a hold of. Placing his eraser so he could shoot it in the innocent child's direction he aimed and let it go, resulting in a shrieking child that definitely didn't expect it. Gilbert grinned, bulls-eye! His grinning quickly ceased however when he noticed the extremely pissed off look his teacher sent him after hearing from the victim what happened. How do they always know it was me! He pouted, it was unfair to be so easily misjudged! Not that he didn't deserve it... but still!
He got grabbed by the ear rather painfully by the teacher who started rambling in French at him, which he didn't understand a single thing of, and got taken out of the classroom. Great, he had to fucking clean again! Why do they have to punish him? It's not his fault tests are fucking boring! He continued to mope while the janitor dragged him off to clean the windows swearing he would pull a prank on the stupid teacher. Nobody sends the awesomest guy away without consequences!!
