PERSONA
people refer to him as an entitled idiot who does cruel, stupid things even though he probably have a decent heart. he gives into per pressure easily and is someone who will do anything for kicks or on a dare. he has this burning need to prove himself to everyone around him. he can be a kind hearted person and a good friend to those around him though, but it's almost like that's on a timer constantly. it's very easy for him to chop and change how he presents himself depending on the people he's around. whenever he is around his friends or teammates he seemed to think he has to play this extremely cruel and uncaring role to a degree. like the other jocks he will follow the crowed, has a temper hates to be rejected. it's very easily for him to get worked up and for the most part he runs on pure adrenaline. he's very headstrong and can't stand anyone showing disrespect towards his team and teammates first and foremost, he won't hesitate to be physically aggressive, he's usually ready to fight at the drop of a hat. whenever he's not in a game, training or around anyone he sports with though, he actually does show concern towards people. he's very protective, not of himself really but those few that he actually trusts enough. even though he doesn't like dealing with problems for to long and would rather let things blow over then get to involved, he often does get tangled up in a lot of drama.

while he may seem arrogant and heartless, he is in fact quite an emotional person but only when it comes to his family or his team mates (same thing really to him). though he'd never exactly call himself one to be drawn to attention, compliments boosts his confidence and his people-skills, which really both of them don't need any further pampering. he's the type to hype up every and all situations that protein towards him or someone he's close with. anger gives him energy and stress sharpens his focus, maybe that's why he excels so easily in sports, they come naturally to be. a good heart, but bad luck and worse choices are common for him. he can dish out the trash talk and insults easily, for the most part he's just one of the bro's you know? who jumps on the bandwagon of whoever his friends are complaining about. though when in front of people he actually wants to make a positive impression on he can be charismatic and beguiling in a way, throwing around compliments and that million dollar smile on cue. he likes to be the unofficial ringleader and is quite detached and a control freak. he tends to overwork himself apparently, he doesn't listen or take any of that. current moments of pain don't matter, he'll push and really do whatever it takes to win. when he is ever drawn into taking a break and joining a group out and about, after a few drinks he can be the funny guy at times and is happy to just sit back and watch whatever drama starts unfolding— and eventually, likely get roped into it, he's cursed to get caught up in other people's business.

FEARS
being told he'd waisted potential. being left out and isolated from a group, no surprise that he's always been team orientated and doesn't know how he would live without that support. people he trusts turning against him, he's insecure and well what would be worse then showing up to school one day to see that you're friends have started talking about you and left you alone? he doesn't want to be a reject. he's also scared of dying, and ghosts he's not a big paranormal fan at all. also dolls because fuck those.

STRENGTHS
physical strengths of course, because of all the sports he plays  and events he participates in. he's quite co-ordinated and pretty fast runner, he loves chasing people down and usually during break that's all he and his friends do. he's got very good eyesight, distance and depth perception especially. he knows what to say most of the time to make a situation play in his favour, and he knows how to get that he wants from someone most of the time. he had a lot of teach favour due to his extra curricular, the sports department because of his coach especially.

WEAKNESSES
the people he hangs around are just a weakness in themselves, they're not the smartest of people and honestly that rubs off on him a little though he's certainly average intelligence. his behaviour is quite reckless since he usually acts on impulse to keep people around him impressed, he's constantly trying to make sure that his team views him as good enough to make sure they continue to support him as their team captain. he's constantly looking to keep placement and that sometimes leads to him forgetting how to act in a king manner, his arrogance jumps out every now and again distracting him from whatever he's supposed to be focused on, usually a conversation he doesn't care for.

BACKSTORY
he had a pretty simple upbringing, he found socialising and making friends easy so he didn't have any difficult early years. as the captain of the soccer team, he is incredibly athletic. he is a common multitasker and yet he finds balancing school and everything else to be difficult, he's on the brink of failing a few subjects. asides from a few times he's given into per pressure he hasn't found any real trouble yet and doesn't plan on it. he has no real future plan, he hasn't found an area he is curious and excels in yet other then various sports and he knows how hard it is to go pro sport so he has never really seen that as an option he's sad about it.
