Derek

(Paradise island series part 4) To put it simply, paradise island is a large beautiful tropical island that is a very popular and, considering how nice it is, relatively affordable vacation spot. Derek is a professional surfer and even started being offered so many surfing photo shoots and so many people interested in taking surfing lessons from him on Paradise Island that he ended up moving there. It’s a good place to surf and was one of his favorite vacation spots in the years before he lived there so he wasn’t exactly opposed to the idea. In fact he was all for it. Now, 7 years later, he’s no longer a professional surfer, although he’s still good enough to be, and he no longer gets that many surfing photo shoots, but he still teaches surfing lessons. Quite a lot actually. He’s 5’9” and his weight fluctuates from anywhere between 135 pounds and 155 pounds. He has long blond hair, stubble, and wears lots of denim, swimwear, and colorfully beaded necklaces and bracelets. He takes things easy these days. With the amount of ads and photo shoots he’s been in in the past, not to mention all the surfing lessons he still books to this day, he’s got more than enough money for a comfortable life. He loves to just chill. He loves surfing (duh), playing video games, partying, smoking, and drinking beer. He likes to keep things simple. He does sound a little bit like the stereotype of a surfer, but more mellow and less extreme. He does say bro and dude a lot, in a gender indifferent way. Although often very chill and calm, he can also be very crazy and energetic, and it all depends on what mood he’s in and what crowd he’s with.
