Larry Thor

Larry Thor is a film and radio actor, who had recently moved to Willow Lake, after rediscovering James Thor, his son, was still around. "It's a long story." He calls it.

Early Life
Larry Thor was born Arnleifur Lawrence Thorsteinson in Lundar, Manitoba, Canada, on August 27, 1916. He had numerous jobs before he eventually decided to pursue radio acting. He did some radio work in Flin Flon, Manitoba, until he moved to the United States in 1946. He then lived in Santa Monica, California for a while.

(All information above in the "early life" category is true information gathered over time. The rest could be tailored to fit the storylines.)

Here's the "long story" Mister Thor was talking about in the above quote: Before he moved to the U.S., Mister Thor was married to a Danish woman (in which he refuses to tell us her name) around 1938-1940. They were happily married, and had bore James Thor, (Jimmy, as everyone calls him), in 1940. However, the marriage was terminated abruptly after Mister Thor's neighbor, who was racist toward Danish people, murdered her while they were sleeping. That has caused him to have terrible memories, and has been reluctant to romantic feelings ever since. Even as of 1952, Mister Thor still does not know about the man's whereabouts or who he really was. Mister Thor felt he could no longer care for Jimmy, and he put him up for adoption. Then later on, they had found each other again after Scout Miller had joked with Jimmy about Larry Thor being his father because of his last name. Mister Thor then adopted Jimmy, and they are united once again. Most of the details of this story is unknown because he refuses to talk about it and often changes the subject when it is brought up. However, the bond between him and Jimmy continue to grow as they learn more about each other. Since their unity, their relationship has blossomed. (This story being gathered from The Set-Up)

Current Life
As of 1952, Larry Thor is 36 years old. He is the "proud father" as he calls himself, of Jimmy Thor, and he is next-door neighbours with Scout. He and Scout almost have a father-son relationship, because of Mister Thor's fatherly personality, and Scout's intense adoration for him. Mister Thor, (as he insists to be addressed), often accommodates Scout in his mystery-solving in attempt to protect him and his friends. He is the one that gets in the most trouble, with Scout having to bail him out of everything. Mister Thor is also quite fond of Talia Smith, who is his other next-door neighbor.

Personality
Mister Thor is quite introverted on the inside, but can appear extroverted when around people. Mister Thor is witty and has a great work ethic. He is great around children and has a great sense of humour. He also has a fatherly and protective personality. Mister Thor loves having a good time, and is often the life of the party.

Mister Thor is an Enneagram 7: The Enthusiast.

Mister Thor does not like being sad, and will do anything to make it go away. Mister Thor does not like being touched or have negative attention brought to him. He also does not deal with neighborhood drama well.

Mister Thor can be sensitive, which has also helped him to have empathy toward people. Though he can appear stern when you first meet him, he begins to open up and become fun to be around.
