Visual Information (Expansion)
- Rounded yet droopy eyes, Kade's entire face is slightly asymmetrical with the right side appearing slightly more pinched than the left hemisphere of his face. This takes a few moments of inspection to notice, and can give an onlooker some confusion if they only gauge his mood off of his right side, which settles into almost a scowl. His nose has a slightly rounded tip, the bridge marred after four different breaks during Kade's life. Kade's ears are slightly smaller than average, but do not have any outstanding characteristics. A faded red scar is planted where his nose ends and his brow begins, from falling down the stairs.
- Rocking a bit of a farmers tan, the parts of Kade that are covered from day to day are rather pale, while his limbs and head have a decent tan. He's a rather broad figure, a mix of endomorph and mesomorph body types, with a rigid military posture in anywhere he considers some type of formal. Grows minimal body hairy, located in the usual spots with a heavy emphasis on his forearms and calves.
- Muted and cool colors, usually wears blues, greens, greys, and blacks but has most colors for shirts in his wardrobe. Typically sticks to jeans in the cooler months, shorts for the summer unless showing up to an occasion. Prefers to wear jackets or hoodies when whether permits, although he rarely keeps his hands in his pockets. Usually wears a celtic infinity heart around his neck on a silver chain.
- Despite his large size, Kade's voice is soft yet firm. Lucky enough to enjoy reading, an extensive vocabulary can be heard from the teenager. Occasionally prone to cracking, this appears commonly when the boy gets excited and his speech speeds up.
Personality and Abilities
- First Paragraph: Strangers are simultaneously easy and difficult for Kade to deal with, but he comes across as polite and possibly charming if he feels it wouldn't be inappropriate. Depending on who he is talking to, Kade adjusts his demeanor in some way to respond- which has become a subconscious decision that he relies on for success but also detests as he has to fight it to avoid being a two faced chameleon. Few people have poor things to say about him after just one meeting, unless they met through Kade speaking against them on an issue he doesn't agree with, as he does not care to break the ice before breaking points.
- Second Paragraph: He's the luckiest guy he knows, not having to work for a lot of his natural ability, has no reason to feel down on himself whatsoever. But it is because of that he resents himself even more. Self acceptance is a hard lesson that he's currently in progress on learning. Fighting the deviance that runs deep in his family and in him, every day is a struggle and at the same time a victory for the teen.
- Third Paragraph: With his mother, he sugar coats everything about his life to keep her from needlessly worrying as she will, but is utterly close to her other than that. His father wasn't around for most of his life but recently appeared, and the two have kindled a relationship somewhere between friend and father that would best be described as mentor. A devoted servant to all six of his younger siblings, pretty much the first Brock episode in pokemon type stuff with them. Depending on the friend, he's got a lot of people he keeps at arms length yet respects, and has a small few he can vibe with and they're his ride or dies.
- Fourth Paragraph: Delinquency runs strong in his past, and it is only through impulse control and partial dissociation that he keeps it in check. Kade wants to be a good person, and for the most part he tries to act like one. While most people believe the act, the one person who matters on this subject- him. Tries to maintain a neutral good in his actions, but would be best classified as a chaotic neutral.
- Fifth Paragraph: Struggles with his newfound faith everyday, but at this point his relationship with God is something he finds some comfort him, even if he isn't a mainstream christian. He loves his country, or the idea of it rather, but is disgusted with the current state of things and the needless hate and division among his fellow Americans, and the injustice going on across the ponds. While recognition of the circumstances of not only himself but the world itself is necessary for taking part in the system, looking at it for too long starts chipping away at his faith in humanity.
Weaknesses
- Manic Depressive - Prone to bouts of extremely conflicting emotions, managing and recognizing them is a difficult task for Kade. This affects him daily, forcing him to live moment to moment for the most part fo keep himself in check.
- Dissociative - Self perpetuated, he's constantly in his head regulating himself and his thoughts to avoid going down hill. Very few of his shown emotions are genuine, as they are constructed in a deductive fashion in his head before he actively makes the decision to come across a certain way. This makes connecting to new people incredibly difficult, as has skewed his world view.

Relationships
Her - The reason he's alive to begin with, led him on and broke his heart. He hasn't stopped loving her, and even though it's only been a short time he doubts he ever will.
Cole - Best friend since they were in diapers, the yin to his mofo'ing yang, this short backwoods stoner is what keeps Kade off the ground, while Kade keeps him from floating off into space. Partners in crime for life.
Life Story (Oh boy this is gonna be hard but let's give a crack at it.)
- January 20th, 2001 - Born to two very young parents, both of them 19 at the the time
- 2005 - Parents divorce, leaves with his mom to live in the trailer park owned by his great grandmother with his mother and little sister.
- 2006 - 2011 - Over the span of 5 years goes to four different elementary schools, a combination of moving and behavioral issues. A hyperactive kid that in all honesty should have been a grade or two ahead was bored in all of his classes, causing a ruckus and resulting in every teacher until the 8th grade request he be put on ADHD meds. Thankfully, he wasn't, and he got control of it, learning to use his energy constructively
- 2009 - 2015 (Overlap) - A big part of his development involved bullying from most of his peers, for both his weight and his weirdness (Seriously, the kid read at the lunch table and had no clue how to talk to people)
- 2014 School Year- Begins wrestling and joins scholars bowl as an 8th grader, getting his love kicked in the first and dominating the second, learning his first smidge of self confidence as well as winning the League championship undefeated in scholars bowl.
- 2015 School Year - Enters high school as a freshman, striving to do more socially. Goes to football games, chats it up with people he used to know in early elementary. Discovers his affinity for redheads after a specific encounter- still lacks a lot of confidence however, as he is a 5'4'' and pudgy wrestler with little experience in anything that doesn't involve a computer. Starts doing debate, takes a speech class. Surprises the hell out of himself and his peers with his eloquence once he picks up momentum- and discovers his love for public speaking.
- 2016 School year - Falls in with the wrong crowd while simultaneously getting out of his shell. Begins experimenting with a leafy green herb when his best friend Cole gets pulled in by his own family. The boy keeps his school work going great, still doing debate, but spends his weekends partying. His father starts showing up again, on something and being there every now and again. Seven days after his 16th birthday he makes the decision to bite a bullet for Cole when the fool brings aforementioned herb to his school, catching a charge but getting rid of it through both his squeaky clean record and a short term diversion. Switches schools at the end of the year to qualify for AP courses as he missed the qualifiers having been on diversion. Needing community service hours, he begins going to a church just for the hours- gets involved with a girl and she has him do more work and he actually enjoys it, running groups of youth ministry and speaking on stage when invited to. Finds his faith, and begins a pretty bright chapter in his life.
- 2017 School Year - Begins his junior year excited for his new school, easily making new friends with the charismatic nature he's been developing for years without even realizing he's acting and it's exhausting him emotionally, just excited to be in the thick and running fast with his peers. Quit wrestling upon moving, joining JROTC and becomes a star cadet soon. Commands a platoon of armed cadets in drill just three months after joining at a big meet in Branson, Missouri, earning the gold trophy for his school.
- January 15th, 2018 - Attempts suicide via poison, as everything caught up to him (He knew it was coming, or part of him did at least). Legally dies (37 seconds, personal record) at 8:32 Pm, January 17th. Heart restarted, he felt cheated but is driven to try again because as he lay with his strength leaving him he realized would miss something, or rather someone. Goes to a mental hospital for minors, gets assigned a therapist and is thrust back into the world.
- February 23rd, 2018 - Re enters society armed with some level of awareness of his affliction, eager to see her again.
- 2018 Spring through Fall - Develops an actual relationship with the very traditional girl and her conservative family, loving the structure. Gets quite far in terms of development, but it was not to last when fickle feelings change, or the girl's did at least. It was around this time that Kade completed his enlistment into the US Military, eager to make it his career as service to the country he loves is paramount to him. Entering as an E3, he was a soldier for all of 3 months before his downward spiral popped back into his life. Purposefully flips his car going 80 without his seatbelt on in a second attempt, miraculously coming through without a scratch on him (And boy was he pissed about that), on September 6th. Second verse same as the first, discharged on the 23rd with a prescription for mood stabilizers now. Is medically discharged with a chance of appeal in the future, as recruiters really don't want to let high ASVAB scores go. Switches over to a fast track graduation program and gets a job as an office intern, graduating within a month as he tests out of everything he could and took the Government class he couldn't.
- Now - Working on himself, trying to take part in the lives of his friends and learning to be more human, pretty much. Has a hard time with people, but it's sink or swim at this point and he refuses to quit paddling.
