Name: James "Sprints" Alderwood
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Bi
Newsies group (Manhattan, etc): Manhattan
Looks: Light brown, slightly floofy hair cut in a messy undercut style. James is a lean bean, but still has some muscle. He's 5'10" and about 136 lbs. He wears a dark blue button up with worn black suspenders and a dark grey vest and knickers with high socks.
Personality: James is some sort of a messenger for the Newsies, delivering important news to other groups. His charismatic personality and lightheartedness makes him perfect for the job. He's polite until he senses some bullshit going on, then he investigates until he's satisfied. James is loyal as a dog to the Manhattan newsies, and would never betray them to anyone.
Backstory (optional): James was left in the Orphanage by his mother and father because of ~reasons~, so he doesn't really like to talk about his family.
Other: n/a

I love him so much
