Fredrick the hobo is a homeless man who hasn't just fallen on hard times but has lived through hard times his entire life. Not wanting to follow in his fathers foot steps after all that has happened because of where that path leads Fredrick unconsciously finds himself looking in the mirror and seeing his father stare back. he was born in February of '96. it must have been fate that brought him into this cruel world but Fredrick sees it differently. he sees everything as a blessing. trying his whole life to better himself, just trying to find love but in the end its a lost cause.
Fredrick grew up in a broken home, abandoned by his mother by his father he was raised. His dad was to busy fueling his addictions to be there for Fredrick. he taught himself to ride a bike because he knew if he didn't nobody else would. by age 15 he was taken from his father by the court. he was bounced around from foster home to foster home and from facility to facility never knowing how it felt to be cared about.
Fredrick was a felon by age 16, commercial burglary, needing food he broke into a store after hours with a friend. he caught all the heat for it and little Shane got out Scot free. Fredrick spent over two years in facilities hoping that one day this would come to an end and as he hit rock bottom he was introduced to poetry. Edgar Allen Poe was his favorite poet, he didn't just read poetry, he felt it. it was as if it was coursing through his veins. Alone by Poe was Fredrick's theme song he felt like he would never have an Anabelle lee, everyone looked at him with disdain they thought he was a freak but they couldn't imagine that in his heart was the ravens beak.
Fredrick had a big heart, he understood no human would give him the time of day so he developed a love for animals. he found an orphaned raccoon that reminded him of himself so he nursed it back to good health and from that moment a bond was made between Fredrick the hobo and Rudolf the raccoon.
falling into the clutches of old habits his pet, his companion, his friend was the only one there for him. Rudolf gave Fredrick the strength to stand on two legs and to fight his battle against the emptiness inside the battle against addiction.
