20 questions meets vital statistics meme!
LET'S GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER!
It's simple! Many of us are missing info posts for our characters in our journal, so this one can be used or a number of alternatives I'll link below— fill this guy out as a precursor, post, and have a look around!
Give us the scoop on your character, comment around and ask some questions— are their eyes from their mother or father? Are they taller than you imagined? Why do they smell so weird? What does that tattoo mean?
The details might be awkward to get into threads, but this is your place to share them! Use this in your journal as a character info post or use any of the following:

GENERAL JAMES IRONWOOD
AGE: ~45 (Jan 13th)
HEIGHT/STATURE: 6'6" and military stick up the ass
WEIGHT/BUILD: ~360lbs and well-muscled, but also half-metal
GENDER: A Nice Bisexual Lad
RELATIONSHIP STATUS: terminally single & DTF with mild traditional romantic buildup
HAIR: black, streaked grey at the temples
EYES: dark blue
ORIGIN: Remnant, from the country Atlas
LANGUAGE: Fantasy English, Which Is Universal I Guess
VISION
James shows his stress in the line of his mismatched shoulders and the straight bearing of his reinforced spine— he shows his age in fine lines about his eyes and mouth, and the grey in his hair. He is a General in all sense of the title with careful composure and a cool head. His smiles are gentle when he offers them and he shows his awkwardness in the pinch of his brows and quiet consideration of his words, but he is functionally-cut with dense muscle and broad-shouldered, and steel cybernetics comprising his entire right side from the shoulder down.
His body language is about as rigid in most cases, often standing at parade rest and maintaining a neutral expression only prone to soften with those he knows. He eases to tactility given and has no visible scarring with how covered he keeps himself, but the right half of his body is cybernetic— arm, shoulder, upper torso (and possibly lower), and his whole leg, with thick claw-rend scarring around the edges of the metal where it's fused to his flesh. The origin of the injury isn't clear but the damage was clearly severe, and despite holding himself normally, his left side is acting up from the added strain it had to take up. This shows more often when he's alone or it's cold out and he's slower to move.
This square's always in uniform even if he were to take someone out to dinner, but if he absolutely HAS to dress casually/comfortably, probably a high-neck sweater (collared/pullover or a turtleneck) and slacks, with equally-covering sleepwear; Atlas is a cold place and also he has all his scars and cybernetics to cover up. He's a low-cut briefs man. About the same palette with darker greys/navy/maroon/white that seem to run the norm in Atlas. He's always sharp and always polished if he has the time to spare outside of uniform.
SOUND
Voiced by Jason Rose, his tone of voice is genial and polite with a deeper, smoother quality that only roughens slightly if he's in a more heated situation. He chooses his words with care and is clearly more comfortable in a formal context than a casual one, well-spoken and succinct, with a weakness for wrapping up speeches. (He's working on it, don't worry.) Everyone seems to speak the same language across the different countries with regional differences in appearance and names only, so he has no real world equivalent language or dialect.
SCENT
Leather/sandalwood, crisp winter air, basic soap. Might dash on a subtle woody aftershave if he's going somewhere particularly nice, but otherwise he's just Clean and Neutral (and doesn't otherwise take care of himself/care about his appearance so long as it fits military standards).
Those with a sharp nose would pick up on the metallic side of him and oil and grease as part of necessary maintenance on himself.
MISC.
James is fairly picky with what he chooses to eat if he has the luxury of choosing, otherwise he tries very hard to maintain his muscle mass and physical shape especially due to the prosthetics and their strain. He can't afford to get pudgy and slow!!
I have a slightly more in-depth / nsfw info post here with kinks and his A5 card!
