Lawrence is a tall, lean, fair-skinned man with blonde hair tied into a loose ponytail and cool blue eyes. He wears an open gray jacket over a red plaid buttoned-up shirt, and a pair of grey sweatpants. A thick black ring is tattooed around each of his biceps.

He was unpopular and, unsurprisingly, the subject of many rumors. Lawrence's parents - who were obsessively invested with appearances - treated him more like a dirty secret than their own child. They eventually pulled him from the educational system and homeschooled him for a year (Grades
4-5). It's unclear whether he reinstated afterwards or otherwise. As he matured his behavior worsened. He never felt welcomed or wanted by his parents; he left as soon as he could, never looking back. Despite his family's neglect, Lawrence craves isolation; he will do anything to get it (sometimes resorting to violence). This desire for isolation is a primary reason why he is nocturnal.

Lawrence works a labor job at a warehouse covering the night shift from
11PM-7AM. He lives in a small studio apartment (assumed to be in Alberta, Canada) that he's decorated with minimal furniture and plants of all manner.
Lawrence's non-violent hobbies include reading, gardening, collecting bones, and occasionally browsing obscure online forums. He likes to walk through the old parts of town at night under street lamps, and sometimes he collects things he finds, like string or interesting rocks.
He drives to spend the day out in the woods on days off, finding it relaxing. He often uses drugs recreationally, even growing some himself, such as papaver somniferum.

Lawrence feels like an outsider to the human race and finds other people to generally be dangerous and untrustworthy. He assumes everyone to be a nuisance, dangerous, or lying. At his best, he's a loner who wants to be away from society whenever he can, but he's also quick to lash out at any person who interacts with him. He relates people to pretty flowers who lie to get what they want. Lawrence is generally withdrawn.
He's shown to be flustered. He's aware that his sadistic actions would be deemed wrong and immoral, and seems to experience bouts of guilt and self-hatred over them. Lawrence would have a low voice, usually soft-spoken. His voice naturally carries further than others (due to the pitch) so he compensates by speaking as quietly as he can, but he is really something to behold when he's shouting. Lawrence has a bit of a stutter that comes up when he's anxious. His laugh is awkward and stifled, and he'll automatically would try to cover his mouth when he does. If someone could make him truly unabashedly laugh, it would be booming, though something like that is very rare and unlikely. Due to Lawrence's apparent disregard of any people he has not formed prior connections with, some fans speculate he may have ASD (autism spectrum disorder), ASPD (antisocial personality disorder) or another personality disorder.
His antisocial behaviors and struggles with empathy may be due to being isolated from others at a young age.

Lawrence is infertile.
Poppies are his favorite flowers. He likes the way they look as if they've died from the inside, surrounded by red. He's also a fan of the seeds and 'milk'.
Lawrence has a tendency to cut up and destroy his plants and seems to enjoy it.
His diet consists of gas station sandwiches, fast food, and herbal tea.
Lawrence got his tattoos to mentally separate his arms from his body because he 'couldn't accept the things his arms have done!.
His favorite season is autumn.
Despite his love for dead/dying things, Lawrence isn't a fan of most forms of taxidermy, as he feels strange about preserving things that he feels should be rotting. He does like collecting bones, however.
He never used shampoo.
