## Physical description

### Gender

Male

Fred Geographic, also called Hollow Fred, is a clone of celebrity Lucas Cruikshank (among other things) created by National Geographic with the intention of being the perfect killing machine. Despite the naming, he has no actual relation to fictional character (...presumably) Fred Figglehorn.

## Appearance

Fred bears a strong resemblance to Lucas Cruikshank, having the same dirty blonde hair and facial features. The main physical part of Fred that stands out are his eyes, which shine a bright golden color and have no visible pupils...haha, most of the time.

He also keeps the Fred look strong with golden shirts, some striped and some bearing the FRED logo, yellow suspenders, black jeans, and a long black caped coat with golden frogging. His coat is torn and tattered from age, but easily covers his entire body when need be.

Like his brother, Barold, his eyes can glow in the dark like a cat, which allows his pupils (that are, in reality, just the same color as his sclera) to be seen in the reflection.

## Personality

At first, Fred can come off as quiet and detached, hence the nickname “Hollow Fred.” His opinions on that nickname are...currently unknown, as he isn’t one to directly state his views unless absolutely necessary. He prefers to watch from a distance, and when he acts, it’s through physical means as opposed to verbal ones.

If you’re looking for a picture perfect killing machine, Fred’s your guy...in some aspects. Where Barold is speedy and Gordon is smart, Fred is strong. He can take out enemies with his hands, weaponry, just about anything you give him (and anything you don’t). He’s neutral on the idea of violence, only enacting it when requested, but he does it with surprising skill.

Since Nat gave up on the idea of a killing machine that’d wipe out AJHQ, Fred has had little use for his skills and spends most of his time in NGHQ training and doing whatever nonsense requires him...and, of course, thinking about cabbages.

Recent events have brought him a quiet interest in having a higher position within the company, and he’s been slowly climbing the ranks ever since. He seems to like being in upper management.

## Backstory

Shortly after the creation (and subsequent failure) of both Barold and Gordon Geographic, Nat was at the end of his mental rope and decided to create one final, last ditch effort to form what he would consider the perfect killing machine.

This manifested in Fred Geographic, a tall and surprisingly menacing figure with some serious skills. By all accounts, Fred was exactly what Nat was looking for. He was clever, he was speedy, but those skills weren’t as great as his strength. His brothers could fill in for what he doesn’t have, and it would all work out…!

But, of course, Nat gave up on his revenge plot to focus on having and raising children, due to his own foolish decision to take the clones out of their tubes too early. Though Fred was the oldest, and generally independent thanks to his age, he still felt put off from the rest of his family, and spends his time wandering NGHQ on his lonesome. Despite his complicated dynamic with his father, he has found a new person to see inspiration in in his stepparent, Finch...so he’s doing alright.

## Relationships

### Finch

Though Fred feels like his father fails to see his potential, he sees Finch in the exact opposite light. Deeply admiring his stepparent and their work, Fred is always willing to show Finch exactly what he can do and how he can aid them. This isn’t for naught, either, and Finch makes it *very* clear that Fred is their favorite child. It’s nice to feel seen, y’know?

### National Geographic

Fred looks up to his father and wishes deep down that he were just like him. It was Nat who granted him life and power, but it was also Nat who took it away. He wishes that his father would register his existence. Sometimes, it feels like he doesn’t have one at all…his connection to the John Cena poster in his training room is stronger than that with his own dad.

### Barold

There is a lot that Barold could be doing, and even more that he avoids. Fred just wishes his younger brother would focus on gaining strength and endurance over perfecting the symmetry of his eyeliner. There are some battles you just can’t win…

### Gordon

On the other hand, Gordon puts too much stress on himself when he could easily focus on his own hobbies and interests. Clearly Fred’s younger brothers could learn a lot from each other…but, alas, they choose not to.
