Hobbies: Skateboarding: Piper spends a good amount of his weekends at the local skatepark and even more time there over the summer. He's been boarding since he was about nine, giving him a few years of experience. Piper has a collection of boards ranging in size and color, each one of them however showing the loving touch of being worn.
He's gotten really good over the various years of practice however with as many injuries he comes home with one wouldn't think as much. Though most of the injuries are just results of him trying to improve tricks or trying things that have never been done, except for those at the pro level. He has entered into competitions and won a number of them, but lost a good deal as well for being to hot-headed and starting fights with other boys.
Boxing:: Piper got into boxing as an outlet for his anger, thanks to his brothers not so friendly advice of that or a boys home the next time he comes home from school for fighting. His first experience was when he was around ten at the community center, after that the trainer there talked him into checking out an actual boxing class. From then on he fell in love with being able to pummel other dudes legally. He attends classes about three a week and has since he was younger, going into actual amateur fights when the occasion arises.
Baseball: For Piper baseball is simply fools luck, he was tossed into the sport to keep him in high school and ended up having a talent for it. As it now, baseball for him is more a means of future employment than an actual fun thing to do, however he does use it to vent. Venting his frustration into the bat has him coming in as a very strong hitter for his team, outside of school practice however Piper does not actively seek to improve his 'raw talent' with things like batting cages. So while he does actively in-gauge in the sport its only as much as is needed to remain on the team nothing more or nothing less.
Virtues: Self-reliant:: Independent mostly from a young age since his brother was pretty much too busy keeping a roof over their heads and them fed to really 'parent' him. Piper has learned to rely on number one, himself. He doesn't need another persons input to feel confident or like he matters. He's learned and developed the skills he needs to survive a day to day life, fighting, cooking, personal hygiene, you name it most of the things he knows came from his own teachings. Because of this he's bloomed into a fiercely independent person, not to mention a very confident one. When it comes to group work, or things of that nature he would rather piss his teammates off into leaving so he can get things done himself, the right way and at his own pace, while that's not really the best thing its just him not liking to be dependent on other people and able to push on by himself when need be or even when not need be.
Protective:: While Piper isn't one that easily forms attachment to people, once someone is in they are for good, or well unless they really piss him off. For as much work as it takes to crack him, once you become his friend you can bet that Piper would throw himself into just about anything, or anything he was interested in for you. If someone messes with someone he see's as 'his friend, or his in general' then that persons face will be rearranged even if it takes him five or six tries at it. On the previously mentioned, when he picks on his friends or hurts them, because he will and does, he doesn't see it as anything horrible since they basically should have known what they were in for when becoming his friend.
His protective nature can get the better of him and push into a more jealous and overly protective area at times, when this happens its a little hard to reach him on it unless you really smack it into him that he's doing it, but for as much trouble as it might cause, you can bet he means well.
Unintimidated:: Or so he would like to believe, Piper is not one that will back down from a challenge. Sure he seems lazy and to be to relaxed most of the time but that by no means, means he doesn't yearn or seek adventure. It just means..he's smart about choosing which adventure he accepts. At times he doesn't know his own limits but he tries to not put himself into situations he doesn't think he can handle but if one presents itself to him...he's not going to decline being far to curious and far to prideful to do such a thing. Piper is one that will bravely face the dangers life decides to throw at him even if it means by doing it in a recklessly brave way. He's going to be the guy that backs you up even if it means bringing a knife to a gun fight.
Flaws: Rude / Unsympathetic:: Piper is in short terms a cocky jerk. If there was anyone in the world to go to for advice that would never be sugarcoated and likely to make you cry? It would be him. He doesn't give a damn how sensitive you are because its the truth and if you can't handle the truth that's your own damn problem, he's not your mother and he's not going to baby you. If you fall on your face in the mud and he's around you can bet he'll laugh his a** off before even thinking about helping you up, why? Because it was funny and you look like you're covered in - We can stop right there as you likely get the point. Anything that seems remotely sweet that comes from his lips you can bet isn't meant to be that way or if it is he might have indigestion. On the bright side for as rude as he'll be telling you about something, you can be about 75% sure he'll never lie to you, unless...its for his own good or to make fun of you.
Quick-tempered:: Please don't piss him off, its really for your own good. Piper is very quick to anger and when he is angered he often times than not snaps with an act of violence. He has even hit people for as little as touching something he holds precious to him, because its his and they don't need to be messing with it. Often times when angry he can lash out at those that he cares deeply for, which has him coming off as abusive in the eyes of some, since he tends to not be able to hold back his strength when angered. For as quick as he is to get riled up he is generally just as fast to cool down.
Loud:: Suffering from a short-guy complex until he hit puberty, Piper is use to yelling to catch attention. As such he doesn't realize how loud he actually gets when he talks to other people. One that goes big or goes home, he's the prince of going all in for the biggest, best and loudest impression when he's going to do something. His intensity in things can get to the point of unbearable on others, but that's not his problem, since half the time when he does something he purposely does it offensively. Piper can become loud in just about anything, physically of course, in actions and even with how he dresses if he knows it can be obnoxious to someone he wants to piss off.
