Hobbies: Sports -- Cross Country in the Fall and Baseball in the Spring, Elliot likes to stay active and thrives in a competitive setting. He likes to push himself and even if he isn’t the best, he has fun and is supportive and encouraging of everyone else. Cross Country gives him the opportunity to go outside and appreciate nature and someone’s always got hot dogs during his baseball games. He has no aspirations to play professionally so this is purely for enjoyment of the sport.
Debate -- Elliot loves to argue and this is the perfect place to put up a good argument without getting anyone in trouble. He gets very passionate and puts in time and effort to do thorough research, and he loves to practice. He likes the challenge and the duality of needing to be prepared before a debate and needing to be able to think on your feet.
Outdoors -- Destiny City has plenty of parks, and the mountains aren’t
too far away. Elliot likes to spend his time outside exploring and appreciating nature. He loves visiting the reservoir, swimming, hiking, and camping whenever he can get the chance to. When he can’t get out of the city, he spends time in the park and always takes a little time every month to clean up any litter.
Virtues: Resourceful -- Elliot is clever and quick to solve problems and come up with solutions for difficult situations. He is determined to find solutions and doesn’t give up easily. He is capable of working independently and in a group setting. He is hardworking and ambitious and is a fast learner.
Confident -- Confidence comes easily to Elliot, who is quick to believe in his abilities and those around him. He thinks he’s a good judge of character and situation and approaches most situations with the expectation that they’ll turn out all right. He rarely falls to fear or doubt and is sure that if he applies himself and tries hard enough he can succeed at anything.
Friendly -- Elliot was raised to treat everyone equally and give them the best version of yourself. He’s willing to give everyone a chance and always does his best to be friendly and make them feel welcome. He can be playful and mischievous but he always means well and tries to leave people in a good mood.
Empathetic -- He cares, a lot. It’s easy to put himself in the shoes of others, and Elliot tries to look at things from other perspectives so he can live his best life and make sure others can, too. He is compassionate and wants to make sure those close to him are looked after. He is considerate of those around him, whether he knows them or not, and will go out of his way to fix what he can and make people feel better if he has the ability to do so.
Flaws: Emotional -- Elliot has a lot of emotions and feels very deeply. He can get lost in his thoughts and react based on emotions more than logic. He doesn’t always think rationally when he is emotional and can get himself into trouble through misplaced words or actions.
Bitter -- Old wounds don’t easily heal and Elliot can hold a grudge for a
long time. He can be resentful and bitter towards anyone who he feels has wronged him or those close to him, and forgiveness doesn’t come easily. He
tries to be the best version of himself, but he doesn’t always succeed when someone’s proven that they don’t deserve it. Even perceived slights can warrant resentment from Elliot, and he is stubborn and slow to change, even when he’s in the wrong.
Guarded -- Elliot is careful not to give anyone
too much information about himself; he doesn’t ever want things to be used against him or those close to him. He can sometimes be unnecessarily secretive and he can be self-conscious about thoughts and feelings. Sometimes he can seem a bit detached or disinterested when it comes to talk about his personal life, and it can make him seem untrusting or sneaky.
Dramatic -- If something bad can happen, it will. Elliot
knows this. It’s best to be prepared for the worst. Except, Elliot spends too much time worrying about it and can be a bit over dramatic. His emotions can get in the way. He is desperate to prove himself and responds quickly to things that aren’t even an issue, sometimes making him appear to be over worried or over sensitive.
