Chordus

== BIOGRAPHY ==
Chordus' history is unknown; he showed up some time in August of 2019, in a ramshackle house on an otherwise normal street.  His legal name is simply "Chordus," and though some have suggested he's changed his name at some point, his original name is unknown.
As of July 2020, Chordus is 34 years old.  He claims to have been a freelance mathematician his whole life, selling answers to any math problem for $1, and writing any proof for $5.  His main source of income is students who don't want to do their own homework, though he will solve literally any problem thrown at him.  Roughly 50% of his answers are correct, but he'll vigorously defend all of his answers, claiming he "won't cave to the pressures of academia."
== The Great Decimation ==
After a long night of heavy mathing, Chordus discovered that 10% of the world was going to die in the 2020 pandemic. To ensure his own safety, he spent April though September of 2020 hiding in his personal bunker- though, without anything to keep track of time, he is convinced that years or even decades passed. He is still convinced that 10% of the world indeed died, the evidence being that there are no dead bodies anywhere (because they were buried).
== Limericks ==
After two other residents posted poetry of their own, Chordus decided that he would join in on what he assumed to be poetry day.  He wrote three limericks, and immediately decided that this was his new calling in life.  He has been writing what he calls "his master-class poetry" ever since.  So far, his most extensive series of limericks stands at 13 stanzas, as his mayoral candidacy nomination.
== TRIVIA: ==
Chordus has a secret laboratory in his basement.  The laboratory consists of a single, giant electromagnet, and nothing else.  He turns it on sometimes for "science," but has so far failed to produce anything meaningful.
Chordus considers himself the leader of a demonic cult (not a satanic cult, as he is keen to point out).  He holds weekly rituals every Wednesday night, which only he attends.  Though he has never actually summoned a demon, he is quite insistent that they exist, and will show up when they're ready.
Chordus' house is constantly filled with cats, none of which are his.  This is due to the fact that he is a recluse, and all recluses have lots of cats.  He hates cats, but can never seem to get rid of them.
Chordus is a genetically altered clone of his grandfather.   His genetic makeup is 87.5% Germanic (from his grandfather), and 12.5% Welsh (from the genetic alterations)
Though only 33 years old, Chordus will call anyone under the age of 21 "kids," and generally consider anybody under 30 to be "wet behind the ears" and "naive to the ways of the world."  Likewise, anybody over 40 is an "old fogey."
Has an imaginary friend, Dr. Christine Olga Winowski.  He often collaborates with her on scientific papers.
Squirrels sometimes get into Chordus' attic when the vent cover comes off (he uses Scotch tape to keep it in place).  Though the squirrels are quite ordinary in every way, he's convinced they're ghosts because their eyes reflect the flashlight he uses to spot them.
Picked up a slight Fake Scottish accent after being forced to listen to Braveheart on loop at his first job.
There has been a massive yellow-jacket nest in his spare bedroom since September 2020, which he has not gotten rid of because the buzzing acts as a free noise machine at night.
