[Name] Fredrik Christopher Ahlgren (Falkenberg) [II]
[Nicknames] Fred For some unknown reason, Portman enjoys calling him Bonnie. (It’s Summer In My Heart)
[Birthday/Location] January 28 Göteborg/Gothenburg, Sweden
[Ethnicity] Swedish/Italian
[Appearance] Short dark brown hair, brown eyes, very tall and sturdy, broad shouldered.
6’2 – 188 cm (6,4 - 195 cm as an adult)
180 lbs. – 82 kg, more or less – mostly more thanks to his constant hunger and because he works out a lot.
[Personality] Out-going, friendly, social – can be a bit quiet from time to time when he feels he’s got nothing to say.
Slow in his thoughts, but very caring and genuinely good-hearted. He always tries to stay optimistic even though he has a bit of a bad self-confidence. He doesn’t always think before he speaking or acting and he makes rash and thoughtless decisions when he’s frustrated, but he takes responsibility for his actions and he owns up to his mistakes. His trademark is confusion and thoughtless comments. He’s bad tempered, but wouldn’t hurt a fly unless it included shouting really loud.
Fred has a bit of a drinking problem, mostly during his teenage years. He tries to mend his problems in some way or another, but needs someone to point out the obvious to him. His father also had serious drinking problems while Fred was growing up. In For What It's Worth, Fred battles an addiction to Prozac.
He’s got a learning disability that keeps him from doing well in school – even though he tries really hard at times, which gives him a bad confidence. During high school he’s diagnosed with ADD. Fred makes it up by being the star athlete and is very good at most sports. He plays hockey on the school’s team and enjoys working out as much as he can.
Fred has a bit of bad luck at times but that usually don't bring him down. He’s got a good heart and protects the people he loves, no matter what it takes.
[Likes/Dislikes] He likes hanging out with his friend and dislikes his parents, school and bugs. His worst fear is to end up like his father. And also bugs, again.
[Schools] Grade 1-3 in his home town. One year in private school in Stockholm. Other various private schools. North Lakewood Academy for high school (end of freshman year and onwards). Fred doesn’t graduate from high school. {Eden Hall for high school [MD, ISiMH]} {NYU for college [Misc.]}
[Class schedule] Grade 11
[Languages] Swedish, English, German
[Studies] Photography, Psychology [BaT]
[Profession] Professional hockey player [Slide], Marketing PR Agent at Miller Corporation [RS] {Vice President of Miller Corporation [FWIW]}
[Clubs/Sports/Hobbies] Hockey, football, basketball, soccer – he likes to keep himself busy with things he’s good at, things he like doing, to compensate for his failures and bad grades in school.
[Jersey number] 70
[Position] Defense, left shooter
[Cars] Volvo XC90/BMW Z3/Porsche Boxster S [TS, Misc.]
[Tattoo] Tribal pattern on his calf, small tribal heart on his inner wrist.
[Favorite food/drinks] Pizza, lasagna, Fanta, (vodka)
[Allergies] Beestings, bug bites, red wine
[Common phrases] “I’m not stupid.”
[Other random facts] Has a scar on his right cheek, close to his ear from being hit by a vase
[Background (family/personal history)] His father never treated him very well while he was living at home, so he’s rather relieved to be out of the house. His parents had him when they were 17. Took care of his brothers a lot while they were growing up; he’s the oldest of four brothers. Comes from a wealthy family. His father is the founder of Miller Corporation, a successful worldwide business concern. Fred is the first heir after his father and is expected to take over when he grows up.
[Previous/current relationships and sexual orientation] Straight. So far he’s only dated three girls. He is still friends with his first and second girlfriend, and will rather not talk at all about his third. He doesn’t date a lot, feeling that he wants to really like someone before he asks her out.

[Character Description (100 words or more)] Fred is the kind of guy that is friends with everyone. He’s rich, good-looking, good at sports and could date just about any girl he’d want. He doesn’t, though. He would much rather try to find a meaning to his life than to waste his time dating girls he doesn’t feel anything for. He was diagnosed with ADD two years ago, and can’t but wonder if all he’ll ever be is a failure, as he knows he can’t keep playing sports forever. What means most to him is his friends and his younger brothers – and to find someone to love.
