Transfer
Where are you coming from?
I’ve lived my whole life in a small seaside town. The town is quite isolated from the rest of society, but I liked it that way. I lived alone in a small house not far from the beach and ran an ice-cream van for a living.
Who have you left behind?
I left both of my cats! It’s ok though, as I’m sure my neighbour will be able to take care of them. I miss the customers who used to come to my ice-cream van every day – they were what got me up in the morning and kept me smiling. What’s good is there are lots of new people in Anchor Rock – I just hope that they like ice cream (or not -– secretly I hope they hate it)!
What are you good at?
Anything ice-cream related, I’m your man. If you want a simple vanilla cone with a flake, or a more complicated combination of coconut and banana, I’ll have no problem getting what you need. I’m also good at classifying marine life – when not on the ice-cream van, I would take long walks along the beach, identifying and researching everything I came across.
What quirks have you chosen for your character?
- Observant (+) (Dahl has spent a long time looking out for sealife on the beach, and as such has become very observant)
- Secret (-) (Dahl secretly hates ice cream! She is embarrassed to be the ice cream seller who hates ice cream, so as a result, he hides this fact and pretends to love it).
- Make Me Cry (0)
- Romance Me (0)
Private Bio
Dahl had lived his whole life in the small seaside town of Harbourview. As mundane as her life was, Dahl was happy – living alone with his two cats Puffer and Fish, life was simple. When Dahl’s father died she took over the family ice cream business with open arms… or so it seemed. The problem was, Dahl hated ice cream. It was too sweet, sticky… and that’s without brain freeze! And then, he appeared in Anchor Rock. The unfamiliar sights and lack of coast made her extremely anxious at first – the sea was his comfort and now it was gone! Without his cats and his ice cream van, she felt hopeless, empty even, but then she realised… could this be an opportunity to live a new life? To find someone special who isn’t a cat or a customer? To live a life without ice cream?
Public Bio
Dahl is a friendly-looking transfer from a small seaside town who owned an ice-cream van. He is fairly tall, well-kept and is always wearing a pink polo shirt. If you pass her on the street, you’ll probably hear him talking about the sea or offering someone an ice cream.
