Sign: Aries
Gemstone: Coral
Blood Type: O

School: Meadowview High
Hobbies:
xxxxxThere's a book for that xxxWondering how a light bulb works? There's a book for that. What about the chemistry of baking? Book for that too. xxxMore often than not Jayden can be seen at school with his nose shoved in a book. He loves learning xxxabout how things work, reading theories, and the general concept of physics in the natural world. He's the type that xxxif he has a question, he'll go seek an answer. xxxBut, for all his studies, rarely does he put things into practice. He reads for the knowledge and doesn't like hands-on too much.
xxxxxCounting Cards xxxJayden plays games based on cold hard science -- naturally card games are something he's good at. xxxHis expert poker face and analytical nature make him a natural gambler...if you can xxxcall it that since the gray-eyed boy will only play if he knows he can win.
xxxxxNosy body xxxThis goes hand-in-hand with his first two hobbies. Jayden likes knowing everyone's business, especially if it xxxconcerns him. Collecting his own information about people is just as interesting as reading it pre-printed xxxin a book, and it's pretty easy to do so, especially in High School. Though he's by no means xxxfriendly with anyone, he is on a first-name basis...know them well enough to get them to talk but not so well that they call xxxasking to hang out on Friday.
xxxxxLeft stick, right stick, double a tap xxxThough it seems to be out of his tastes, gaming is one way Jayden blows off steam on the weekends. xxxTrash talking people you don't -- and probably ever will -- know is the perfect solution for xxxgetting out the anger and stress without ruining any relationships. It's a necessity if you want to keep up appearances. xxxBut, he only plays on the weekends, and only at home safely tucked away in his room.
Virtues:
xxxxxI got this xxxJayden is the type of person you go to if you need to get something done quickly and efficiently. He's got xxxall his pens stacked up and organized on his desk according to size, the paper stacked neatly, and sticky notes xxxon a bulletin board for things he's got to do. If you have a question, chances are xxxhe'll have the answer thanks to all his reading...if he doesn't then he has a handy dandy reference guide to find it for you quick. He prides himself xxxon being able to do anything and be there for anyone if he needs to be, albeit a bit smug about you needing help from him. xxxIt only really bugs him if you call him for something, then change you mind last minute. Need a ride home xxxthen just as he's getting into the car call and change your mind? He'll probably grind his teeth and sulk for a few hours.
xxxxxI'm on ice baby xxxIf a fire were to break out and everyone was on the verge of panic, Jayden would be the one to take charge (besides, he already xxxmemorized the fire escape route). He's able to remain calm and collected, sticking true to his rational nature. Panic only xxxleads to disorder, and that's when things go wrong and people get hurt. Or get in his way. xxxThis may work to his advantage in that people tend to flock towards calm in desperate times, and Jayden xxxis more than happy to take a leadership role if needed.
xxxxxSorry if the truth hurts xxxWhen people ask the red-head for advice, he's not afraid to give it. Jayden's responses are clear and direct; he'll tell you exactly what you need to do, how to xxxget there, and what works most effectively. He doesn't sugar coat things, he just tells it like it is. Instead, he'll give advice xxxon how to fix the problem if he has no other choice to reply, "Yes, that dress does make you look fat." xxxThough not outright mean, he believes that if people want his honest opinion they should get it, and overall people tend to appreciate him for that.
Flaws:
xxxxxYou're all the same xxxHis honesty can be a virtue, but it can also double as a flaw due to his lack of consideration. He makes it his business to know everyone else's, but he doesn't xxxparticularly care about the people. He gathers information for his own ends, no other reason. While it's not xxxenough to make outright enemies, it is enough to get the occasional "You're a d**k, you know that?" xxxcomment when dealing with particularly sensitive persons.
xxxxxOf course I'm better than you xxxSometimes, Jayden can get too full of himself, and come off as very arrogant. His responses to "stupid" xxxquestions are often sarcastic and snide, and he'll tend to pick fights with people he feels are "lower" than xxxhim...though he's always careful to make sure he will be the winner. xxxHe does this particularly often when he's running a temper, often insulting and antagonizing the other person until xxxthey start the fight (as a form of venting, much like with trash-talk in video games).
xxxxxLeave me alone xxxJayden knows everyone's business -- but nobody knows his. He's very adamant about keeping his private life xxxprivate unless there's an absolute reason that you need to know. Having a general conversation and just offhandedly asking what he xxxhad for breakfast, unless you were there, he probably wouldn't bother responding. Anyone attempting to pry would be met with snappy sarcasm, no xxxexceptions. Keeping everything to himself often leads to several consequences; in public he gets frustrated easily, while at home he becomes a quiet recluse. xxxEmotional strain can become a real weak point for him since he won't let himself lean against anyone, but at the xxxsame time he doesn't know how to deal with it...and the stack of books don't help at all.

Negaverse Alias: Lieutenant Feldspar
Challenge: I'm cane if you're able.
Weapon Progression:
xxxxxLieutenant: xxxCane. Uses it mostly for walking and beating people who deserve it. Or don't, as the case may be.
xxxxxCaptain: xxxA glaive! With the cane ending...to lean on and stuff. Just a simple blade at the end.
xxxxxGeneral: xxxGlaive gets a slightly bigger blade and it leaves a burning sensation after a cut. Also a bit more xxxornate in the blade's apperance. xx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxend shop form || start extra goodiesxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Family:
xxxxxSydney - Sister (17) xxxOverall, the two get along well. They can get on each other's nerves...but then what siblings don't?
xxxxxJeff - Dad (44) xxxTypical fun-loving outgoing booming dad.
xxxxxAnnie - Mom (42) deceased xxxAnnie was your typical mother hen. She was one of the few people Jayden opened up.
xxxxxJim - Twin Brother (15) xxxxxTim - Twin Brother (15) xxxThe brothers are playful and mischievous. Jayden likes to play rough with them, but xxxtoo much when he's not in the mood gets old fast.
xxxWhen Annie died, it hit the whole family hard. Things around the house weren't as fun and bright as they used to be, and it xxxbecame rather awkward and quiet. She did so much, now that she was gone, it was the elephant in the corner of the room. xxxThe whole family kept to themselves for a while, and only recently has anyone started trying to warm things up again.
Extra:
xxx• Jayden is a cripple; one of his legs is slightly shorter than the other. He uses his cane not only as a weapon but as an aid in walking.
xxx• He was never able to shake his Australian accent completely, so may at times be hard to xxxunderstand because of the occasional slang thrown into his speech.
xxx• Jayden cares very deeply about his family, but would never admit so outright. In public he retains his xxxneutral demeanor, but at home in private he allows himself to be a bit more relaxed xxxand caring (and also a bit more playful with the younger siblings).
xxx• His mother's death was recent; however he continues on as if nothing major has changed. Not knowing xxxhow to deal with it properly he just ignores the fact that she's no longer there. On the odd occasion that he xxxdoes think about it, he gets very mopey and depressed.
