Personality-
Andrew Herman Rizzo could certainly be called the black sheep of the Rizzo family. Unlike his younger sister Jaimie, Andy never really relished in the finer things in life. He did like them, but he certainly could live without them if he needed to. Andy never wanted his families money to define him(which is why he is the only Rizzo child to attend public school).
Unlike Jaimie, Andy is by far from one of those tabloid socialites that party it up on a nightly basis for no reason in particular. While Andy himself was once known to be the life of the party and doesn't mind having a good time, he knows when to push the brakes.
Andy could be described as a little bit of a procrastinator. Well, a really big procrastinator. Andy is the kind of guy that will always wait until the last minute to do something or puts it off long enough to the point were it will bug him enough to where he has to do it or he will lose his mind.
Andy always said that he was born to the wrong parents in the wrong kind of household. Andy always valued hard work and earning what was his. Andy was never a fan of using his father's money to get what he wanted. If Andy wanted something, he worked hard for it. Many of the other rich kids looked down on Andy for actually opting to work and not just expect to have everything handed to him on a sliver platter. Andy is far from a selfish spoiled brat.
By heart, Andy is an extremely laid back dude. Some may mistake this for laziness, but it's really not. Andy's very easy going and never takes anything too serious, except for his work. His easy going nature usually makes him one very stress free individual.

Abilities/Powers/Skills-
Sound Manipulation - Because Andrew truly is the bane of Ruth's existence, it's only right that Andrew was given the power of Sound Manipulation. In it's simplest form, Andrew can control and manipulate sound waves. He can manipulate any and all kinds of noise at extremely high or low volume. So if he doesn't want to hear someone talk or is getting annoyed by a repeating sound, Andy can manipulate the sound wave so that he no longer has to hear it.
Andy also is able to throw his voice. Andy could say something where only people down the block can hear it. Andy can also manipulate the pitch and tone of his own voice, giving him a number of different voices to use.
He can also change the pitch and the tone of sound waves. He can make a five year old girl sound like James Earl Jones and vice versa. If your tone of voice is depressing, Andy can alter it to either a more joyous or a more flirtatious one. And can change the quality of a sound, making two different instruments sound exactly the same.
The most brutal part of Andy's ability is his ability to create noise within your own head. If a jackhammer is hard at work, Andy can manipulate it and control to where only you hear it and can increase the volume to the point where you could go completely deaf.
Limits-
One drawback to Andy's ability is that it takes energy to do what he does. If he is just simply muting something that he doesn't hear, it doesn't take much. But if he is trying to make you go deaf, Andy can pass out from the amount of energy it takes to make the sound and wake up with a near splitting headache.
Andy cannot use his sound manipulation to create concussive blasts or create a shield with sound waves.
Another drawback is that while he can easily silence something for everyone, he cannot concentrate sound to more than one person. As described before, Andy can manipulate sound and create it in your own head or make only you hear one thing. He can only do this to one person only. If he wanted to make two or more people go deaf, he would have to only increase the volume of the sound.
Appearance-
A laid back man usually has a very laid back style, and Andy is no different. A hug fan of blue jeans, Andy hardly wears anything else. The only pairs of shorts Andy wears are black gym shorts and those only serve the purpose of being slept in.
To go along with his blue jeans, Andy usually wears just a plain t-shirt. Nothing to fancy, just a simple white, black, or gray t-shirt, sometimes might even wear a flannel t-shirt from time to time. Also, if the weather is not the best outside, Andy will wear his dark gray zip up hoodie that has almost become a trademark of his.
Andy constantly flips back and forth from being clean-shaven and having a fair amount of facial hair, mostly because he just cannot seem to make up his mind on if he looks better with facial hair or without. Andy likes to keep his sandy blonde hair short, making sure to get a hair cut every two months.

History-
Andrew Herman Rizzo was born the second oldest child and the oldest boy of Natalie Blake and Eddie Rizzo.
From day one, Andy and Ruth have had a rivalry that exists to this day. From name calling to cruel pranks, these two have never stopped fighting with each other. They even got into a nasty little scrap in the backyard once resulted in both of having to get stitches.
And just because she was younger, Jaimie was not abstained from the heated sibling rivalry. For years, Andy would flip flop back and forth from bullying Ruth to bullying Jaimie. Neither of the parents could every figure out why Andy was so mean to his sisters, but they were usually too busy with themselves to ever really notice. And do not think that Ruth and Jaimie would team up against Andy because they certainly did.
For most of his teenage life, Andy felt out of place with his own family. If he ever managed to get close to any actual family members, it was Jaimie due to attending the same party and his father for his hard work in laying the ground work for the family's empire. But with Jaimie being a spoiled rotten brat and his father pissing away the money, Andy has little to no respect for his own family, except for his younger siblings.
Andy never had much of a relationship with his mother, who seemed highly content on having children to dump on the nanny while she went back to her work. The funny thing is, Andy only recently found out that his mother was an accountant. That is how much communication Andy has with his mother.
The only person that Andy ever seem to connect with in the house was the nanny, Jennifer. Andy has some ideas why his father hired a young and beautiful nanny, but Andy has kept them to himself. Hired when Andy was 10, Jennifer was more of a family member to Andy than his actual family members.
And of course, the closer Andy and his nanny got, it was only a matter of time before somebody caught them doing something that the two of them should not have been doing. And three days after his eighteenth birthday, his mother caught Andy and Jennifer in the middle of doing that thing they should not do. Not only did Jennifer loose her job, but Andy was kicked out of the house.
Normally, most would argue after being thrown out of the house. Andy, however, say it as a chance to get away from these insane people that referred to themselves as his family.
And while he was indeed booted from the Rizzo house, they certainly did not put a freeze on Andy's bank account. A bank account which was started the moment Andy was allowed to have an allowance. But instead of resting on his laurels and riding out the money he has saved, Andy picked up a job as a cab driver to keep the money coming in until one day he can hopefully make it as an actor.
Anything else?- N/A
Sample RP-
Andy hated driving a cab. He downright despised it. Most people were rude while others were just plain stinky. Some were drunk and could not help themselves from vomiting on the floor or the seat. And a select few chose the option of bumping uglies while Andy drove them to their destination. The last thing Andy wants to be cleaning up is a used condom.
Yeah, they made you clean up after the stinky drunk horny people.
But Andy kept his mouth shut. He did not let one single complaint out of his mouth for fear of losing his only solid source of income. He simply looked at this job as a means to an end. The end being a Oscar Winning actor living out in Los Angeles. But for now, he cleaned up the bodily messes of others out of his backseat.
"For once, I'd like to work a shift in the middle of the day," Andy said, cursing that he had to work the late night shifts mostly every day he worked.
"Dude, those old timers will never give up the morning shifts. They don't want to clean up all this shit," said one of Andy's fellow nighttime cab drivers.
"And you think we do?" Andy asked, his eyebrow raised and a smirk on his face. His question was only met with laughter. Because it was true. Nobody wanted to have to clean up the mess left behind by the freaks that come out at night. But seeing as how Andy and the others were at the bottom of the totem pole, there really wasn't anything Andy could do about it.
"My biggest question is; You're a Rizzo, your the oldest son of Eddie Rizzo. Why aren't you tearing up the New York nightlife likes your sister?"
"Because I'm not a spoiled little brat that expects everything to be handed to her on a plate. Because I can live without life's luxuries. And because my family sucks. If you want my last name, I'll happily trade with you," It was no secret that Andy didn't hold his family in a favorable light. And it was no secret that many of his family members did the same. "Anyways, I'm done for the night. Time to head home and crash."
Andy may have hated cleaning up blood, puke, snot and used condoms out of the back seat of his cab, but at least the money he was earning was his. He did have some of the money left over from his old allowance, but most of it had been replaced by the hard earned paychecks he was getting at the first and the fifteenth of every month. Ruth and Jaimie could have the money and the high life; Andy was happy that he was earning his own keep.
