Scarlett is quite the rebellious young girl. She does things her own way,
and doesn't care what others think of her. Nobody can tell her how to live
her life, but that doesn't mean she doesn't listen occasionally.
However, her tough face is there to hide her fear and self-doubt about
not being good enough for anything. She believes herself to be a monster.
There are times that Scarlett calls "blackouts" where she can't remember
anything until she wakes up somewhere she wasn't before. She doesn't
remember anything, ever, but she's been told that she's hurt countless
times. She can't remember how many times she's been to jail. Pleading
never works. So she's on the run. She tries to stay out of people's way,
never interacting with others unless absolutely necessary. She is on the
hunt for someone who can help control her blackouts.

┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
I am putting the history earlier in the form as it will help explain later part of this character.

Xavier Ross grew up on a small island far off the West Coast of the United States. It is a US territory called Norden Island, meaning North. On the island is an naval base and a small town that receives supplies through the Navy base but gets almost no visitors. He was an only child. His parents worked the lighthouse near the town, and he grew up there, attending school and helping his parents. When he grew old enough, he learned to pilot a boat, and became a boat boy. He mainly piloted those who needed to get to outcropping islands that they could not get to themselves, but also did a lot of fishing. It was a quiet life, going between school, the light house, and the boat. He loved to explore around his island, and was quite happy. He had always been a good student.
Xee's life changed when he grew old enough to consider college. His town's school was so small there were almost no grade classes and only a few teachers; most did not go to college as there were none on the island but instead learned a trade and stayed there on Norden Island. His parents wanted more for him. An only child, their dreams were that he would be the first in his blood line to go to college. It took some convincing, but eventually Xavier was ready to face a new adventure outside of his own island.
He moved to the main land, many hundreds of miles away, to a college in New York City where he got his degree in marine biology.

└────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
    personality

      Quiet
    Xavier grew up on an island, private and full of peace, without so much as cars to make noise. He never grew accustomed to noise or crowds around him, and therefor often finds himself uncomfortable with either. In conversation, he is afraid to bring attention to himself by speaking loudly, and instead holds his voice at a quiet volume. He hates to be the center of attention for the same reason; he isn't used to large crowds but instead quiet areas where everyone's voices are heard in conversation but there is not much conversation in the first place. This causes his to be very shy and afraid to speak his own voice when his opinions are different from the rest. A close friend can get him out of his shell, but for the most part he doesn't speak out. He is also very uncomfortable in groups for similar reasons, as growing up in such a small community he never faced such groups and never is not used to them.

      Trusting
    As he grew up with small groups, there was never a reason for Xavier to not trust someone. In the community, it was as if everyone was family. Almost no one locked their doors and it was odd for people to hold too much protection over their own hearts. Everyone opened up to almost everyone else, and everyone knew everyone's problems. Now that Xee lives in the busy city, a whole new world, he doesn't know to protect himself from the dangers of the world, and is often caught off guard. Furthermore, he trusts others much too easily. He doesn't known when to guard his own heart, and who will hurt him. Instead he places his trust quickly in others, opening his heart to others. Though this leads to some problem, most are willing to take care of him in this respect.

      Stubborn
    No one threatens and islander's island or property. This was the mindset Xavier grew up with from his parents, and he still hold the same philosophy. Like the rocks of the place he was born, he is unwavering once he sets his mind on something. He is unwilling to change his ways to the correction of others without good reason. This extends further into pride; he refuses to be wrong. He hates when others can prove him wrong, and will do most anything to avoid it. Instead he will fight it with every cell of his body. He also prefers to do things the way he did things on the island; even if it is so different now in the city. Almost nothing can sway him.

      Optimistic
    Xavier's island had nothing of the pessimism that plagues the city. There, no one expected the worst, but always put up with whatever happened with a smile on his face. He knows that if he works hard at something, good will come. In the city, the mindset is nearly the opposite, and is something he is not used to. He hates the sound of negativity. Despite this, he still looks towards each day with a smile on his face with an even greater passion, looking to spread his cheer to those around him. He always has a kind and hopeful word for other, and strives to make the world a happier place.

      Kind
    As part of a small and close community, those who were mean were generally looked far down upon. This has caused a large change in Xee, who is very aware now of how his words affect others. He uses kind words only, and will not say anything rude, no matter what the price. Instead he is supportive and willing to help most anyone, and shares what he has with those around him. When he senses pain in others, he works to raise their spirits; this is his natural instinct. Please and Thank-You are two of his favorite phrases, and politeness is always in his bounds. He is very sensitive as well to the rudeness around him, though he tries to hide it with kindness an optimistic.

      Low Confidence
    At a young age, Xee was thrown out of the world he knew and into a whole new life. He is often scared of what is around him, and uncertain about how to deal with the problems in this world. He is uncertain what to do in many problems, and will sometimes run when a potential problem arises. He is also like this when dealing with others; he is afraid to talk on the phone or confront others about problems. This comes from having little experience talking to new people; now he is always afraid of messing something up and hurting or annoying others. He can be very hesitant, though generally gets through strange and confusing situations okay.

      Curious
    Despite his fear of the world around him, he also loves it. He loves seeing new things, experiencing new events, smelling new smells, everything. Nothing is too new or too scary for him! Each day he tries to do something new, something he's never tried before. Something as simple as a bus terminal or an orange are nearly magical to him. He will go out of his way to learn about the world around him. This is a sign of his intelligence, as with his curiosity he is always trying to find out something new. He is daring in new situations, despite the fear he often feels.

┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
Fears
Fear of closed spaces
Xavier's island was open. There were almost no clouds, and everywhere you go you could see the sky. Reaching the city where there are often crowds and deep, dark places has evolved his greatest fear: closed spaces. When in a crowd, the irrational fear of being crushed in it all comes to play, and he panics. He gets nervous when he can't see the sky, or when people close in on all sides. He has had many attacks in public about this.

Squirrels
This is not a dire fear, but it is certainly one that plagues him. Xee's island didn't have squirrels, and the first view he got of the oddly fluffy yet creepy animals terrified him. He still jumps if he sees one in the park.

Separation
Xee suffers from separation anxiety. He clings to friends too tightly out of fear, and fears being left behind by them. Any risk that they will leave him scares him, and he is oddly possessive of them. He also hates to be left alone.

──────────────────────────────────────────


Habits
Xee has the habit of getting lost. It doesn't seem like a habit any good to have, and it isn't. This mainly comes from his habit to wander off to investigate something new, whether or not it is likely to end well for him. He doesn't pay enough attention to where he is, and between these two things, he gets lost all the time. He always keeps maps around for this reason.

Xavier has a habit of biting his nails. It might be a bad one to have, but whenever he's nervous, he reverts back to what he did when he was young and bites his nails.

Xavier stutters when he's nervous. He can't seem to help it, it is like he loses all control of his voice when he doubts what he's talking about. This makes him less likely to make a good impression, and embarrasses him a lot.

Xee is very big on tradition. Each day, he has to go to the same small cafe for a hot tea. He uses good luck charm, and holds them close when nervous. He had to do things the same way every time of he gets upset easily.

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────

From the Journal of Xavier Ross

Day 1
Today is my last day on Norden. Tomorrow, I leave to start a new life! I'm more nervous than I thought I would be. I've never been off the island, you know? What if I don't fit in? What if I really really mess up? Break something? I don't want to mess anything up.
I don't know what I'll do when I have to leave all this behind. This house I grew up in, it's the only one I've ever known. This town, ocean, the creeks I played in, my room, my bed, all my friends...what will I do without them?
I feel like I'm going to break down. I am so, so scared. I'm trying not to be; I'm trying to look at it like it's an adventure and not just me leaving. I know I'll come back one day to visit, but not for so long. There is so much new to see first.
That's what I need to do. I need to remember all the amazing things I'm going to see, and not focus on all that is left behind. I need to be able to smile and move on. My parents and friends are only a phone call away.
Goodbye, Norden. Goodbye, my home.

Day 2
Today has been about the strangest day ever.
It all started with a plane ride to America. I've seen planes before, but ridden on one? Never.
I got on at the Navy base across the island, and road to California. I was nervous, but let me tell you it was worth it! There is nothing quite like the feeling of leaving the ground, watching it grow small below you. It's like you lose all sense of reality, and you just fly away! I never knew how small Norden Island was until I was here. I watched it vanish into the clouds.
It was so amazing, and in so little time, we were there! It kind of made my ears hurt a bit, and the sound was weird, but it hardly felt like we had moved at all before we landed at an airport.
Airports. Are. Crazy.
Everyone is running everywhere. There are so many places to go, things to see, shops, cafes, everything! I think that the airport could have held the entire population of Norden with no trouble at all. Someone met me there to help me find my way, thankfully. I never would have gotten there on my own!
On the other hand, I tried something new- Pizza! Never had it before in my life. I can describe it in one word: heaven. The cheese melting on the crust, the tasty pepperoni- just wow!~
I got on another plane to fly to New York, and lemme tell you, the second time is just as amazing as the first. This time we flew over land, and there was so much to see out the windows!
I'm writing from the plane, actually, but we're just about to land.

Day 3
My first day in New York City!
I got settled in my dorm room. I have a roommate, which is weird. But it gets weirder.
I never knew how strange a city could be until, well, I got here. There are people everywhere, crowds like I couldn't imagine! Skyscrapers are so much taller than I thought they'd be- I always thought the light house was huge! And cars. Back on Norden, most people rode bikes or walked. Here, there are cars, buses, planes, and even subways! And they are everywhere!
Which reminds me, subways are scary. Underground and crowded and really loud.
I'm trying more food here as well. I had a sticky bun for breakfast. It was a lot like the ones I got at the bakery on Norden.
My roommate is really cool. He's explaining a lot to me. I start classes tomorrow, than afterwords he's going to show me all the best places and introduce me to his friends.
I miss my friends on Norden. I can't wait to see them again...

Day 8
I've been here for a while now. I'm definitely not getting used to it. All the noise here in the city is killing me, I can barely sleep. I hate not being able too see the sun at all times, and being lost in the crowds.
At least the school is nice. I've found a group of friends, and they've been showing me around a lot.
I still miss home.

Day 10
Today the strangest thing ever jumped out at me in the park!
It had sharp teeth and a long tail, and I think it wanted to attack me.
My friends say that it's a squirrel, and won't attack me 95% of the time, apparently.
But what about that other 5%?
I have a one-in-twenty chance of being attacked, and I don't know what to do!
How will I ever survive here???

Day 11
So the thing about squirrels attacking 5% of the time was sarcasm.
They never attack people.
They're perfectly safe.
Oh.

Day 24
I never thought I'd say this, but I'm starting to get the hang of this! I've been here almost a month, after all.
I know how to navigate around, and I'm starting to get used to the crowds. I kind of like it, actually!
Where are Norden only had a couple of shops, there are countless numbers in New York City. There are all kinds of new foods and things to do. I've tried bowling, shopping, and gotten used to riding the subway system.
I love Norden, but I think this is where I belong.

Personality; Strider is a loyal plumerian who would do anything for those he loves.
He is an adventurer and loves the thrill of going somewhere new and the dangers he might
face. He is quite a clever Plumie and though he is smart he tends to do things rather than
think them over first.
Flaws; He tends to be stubborn, there being very few who can change his mind.
He can have a bit of a short temper, though this is the weaker one of his flaws he does
tend to get angry easier than most.
Strengths; Strider is a plumie who loves to learning new things, thus he is not
uncomfortable trying new foods, meeting new people or anything like that. He is quite

So full of hate were our eyes
That none of us could see
Our war would yield countless dead
But never victory
So let us cast arms aside
And like discard our wrath
Thou, in faith, will keep us safe
Whilst we find the path
