Hobbies:Working Out - It’s a lifestyle. Callan’s life focuses on some aspect of being healthy and taking care of your body. Working out keeps him strong, in shape, and in a good mind frame. He likes pushing himself and is serious about being the best that he can be. He occasionally teaches a class at the gym but most often works out at home--however, he also teaches online classes about proper workout procedure and self-care.
Social Media - The world is online and Callan is making the best of it. He has a wrestling persona and performs somewhat regularly in different circuits. While wrestling is mostly for a fun opportunity to show off and engage in theatrics, he uses this persona to push for self care and healthy lifestyles. He is active on social media, documenting his lifestyle, giving advice, and trying to encourage others. So far, he’s had decent success and a growing number of subscribers; the financial support of subscriptions has helped make sure he can maintain a comfortable life. It’s not
just about making money; Callan genuinely cares about the people who support him and has often sent messages or made videos of encouragement.
Cooking - You don’t get as big as Callan is without knowing how to feed your body what it needs to properly grow. Callan does not pretend like all he does is work out--food and nutrition is important. He went to school to be a nutritionist and, though he lives a more glamorous lifestyle through working out, he is very passionate about good, healthy food. He enjoys cooking for himself, for others, and for the internet; he shares his recipes and makes video tutorials.
MMA - Wrestling is fake, everyone knows that the fighting is just make believe and the real intrigue is in the theatrics. Callan is not satisfied with
fake successes in the ring, and he thrives in the competition of
actual fights. He has an impressive record so far and has yet to
lose in the ring. Aside from a few ties and technicalities, he has had only success in his matches so far. He is constantly looking for a long-term rival and continues to push and challenge himself.
Virtues: Unshakeable -- A combination of being brave and stubborn, Callan is unflappable. He is set in his ways and can stick through anything. Opposition and obstacles alike do not deter him; he does not back down from threat or difficulties. He does not seem to fear anything, and challenges only strengthen his resolve.
Driven -- Callan is good at self motivating and will push himself (and those around him) to be stronger, better versions of themselves. He is thorough in all tasks and gives everything his all. He will not settle for less and intends to do as much as he can, and go as far as he can, in everything he does.
Honorable -- Equipped with strong ethics and a firm moral code, Callan has a powerful conscience. He thinks low blows and underhanded methods are sneaky, weak, and cowardly things. He believes that the only way to come out on top is to be true to yourself and face your opponent at their best. He is reliable and unwavering in his code, and his sense of right and wrong makes him dependable and straightforward. Sometimes things are just black and white, and there is never a good reason to do a bad thing.
Compassionate -- Callan has big muscles, heart included. There’s no point in being strong if you aren’t using that strength to keep people safe. Callan
cares, even if he can come across as intimidating. Not everyone can achieve the strength he has, but he uses his accomplishments and successes to help others as much as he can. He is protective of those who have yet to learn to defend themselves, and he wants to bring good into the world.
Flaws: Rigid -- There is a standard way of doing things, of processing things, of acting on things, and Callan is
inflexible. He is set in his ways and will not budge. His stubbornness is relentless, and he is convinced that his way is the best. He will abide by his rules and it is almost impossible to change his opinion once he has made his mind up about something.
Independent -- Callan is not very good at letting people in, especially not when it’s something he feels like he should be able to handle himself. He prefers to do everything he can by himself. He does not like to take orders or listen to instructions, so his method is what works best for
him. Sometimes he keeps secrets and manipulates the truth so it allows him to work on his own; because he is honorable, he never does this with the intent to hurt anyone else but it means that he keeps troubles closed off and handles problems on his own.
Prideful -- He
cannot ask for help. Callan feels that he should be able to take care of himself and struggles to
ask for anything. Oftentimes when he needs something it comes out as a demand or expectation, and when someone offers him aid because they feel like he
needs it he can be belligerent and reject assistance. He has a high opinion of himself but feels like he has brought his family honor and does his best to carry their name proudly. He does not want to seem weak and so can come across as ungrateful or resistant when offered.
Intrusive -- Callan has a poor understanding of personal boundaries and can be loud and demanding. He does not like others keeping secrets from him and intends to be involved in the lives and choices of those closest to him. He had to mature at a young age and as a result he feels like he knows best and wants to make sure that those close to him aren’t making poor decisions. While he does have a surprising amount of experience and knowledge under his belt, advice is often given unsolicited, and with the expectation of being followed. He does not shy away from asking private questions and can be somewhat blunt.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Eyes: Fierce, green
Hair: Long, smooth, black hair; he usually keeps it down if he’s not working out, but can often be seen with it up in a ponytail or bun. It is not uncommon to see it in braids, either.
Face: Sharp; everything about him is sculpted.
Skin Tone: Coppery; will get hex code if he gets art!
Body Type: Tall, muscular; he is an imposing figure who stands nearly six and a half feet tall and takes working out
very seriously.
Clothes: It depends on the day; he has an array of costumes he’s worn for performances, and due to his physique he often has a difficult time finding clothes that
fit. Much of what he wears is designed by his brother, Holden, out of necessity. He likes clothes that are durable and give him the opportunity to move as much as he needs to; sometimes stretch fabrics are best for him. He can dress up nicely when he needs to, but he looks a little out of place in
fancy clothes.
