Micah and Móraín to come!
Name: Karter Thomas Zael
Nicknames: KT
Age: 18
Gender: Cis Male
Pronouns: He/Him
Personality: Karter is a rather sarcastic and dry fellow, if not determined, confident on the surface, and doesn’t react particularly well to high stress situations, try as he might, unless he has some reassurance of his own safety and— if any— the safety of his loved ones. He will do anything he can for his own survival and benefit, save for the sacrifice of the one or two people he may have that are closest to his heart. Those are the people he would do anything for. He’s incredibly loyal to those few people, and will open his heart to them, the people he truly loves. However, he knows that doesn’t make him a good person, as he would— sometimes begrudgingly— even work for all the wrong people or do things most people would not see as being "right" if it helps HIM move forward.
Karter is solitary and focused. He’s not opposed to social interaction, but he’s certainly not the life of the party. He’d rather watch before he approaches someone, deem them to be "safe" or not. He's adverse to touch when not warned first, or with a stranger/near stranger. When he’s not busy with his work, he can often be found watching and taking notes about what he observes. He often needs to retreat, and if he cannot physically tear himself away to find a quiet place, he tends to pull his hood up and hide. It’s his safe place. For that reason, he rarely takes off the jacket, and someone asking him to remove it will often trigger an aggressive or defensive reaction. Sometimes at social gatherings or parties he tries to flirt or make people laugh just for the heck of it, as at the end of the day, he’s still human, and humans are pack animals. While not an extrovert, Karter can still APPRECIATE company on occasion.
Karter is what one may call an adrenaline junkie. He'll do anything for the thrill and the burst of adrenaline it gives him, it’s his drive. Sometimes he ends up putting himself in…precarious situations for such reasons. However, he's liable to panic attacks and desperation if he finds himself in a truly dangerous situation, and he is not above ANYTHING in order to maintain his own safety, be it something as low as pleading, or something as extreme as attacking HIS attacker. Whatever it takes. He’s never one to skip out on a fight, and despite his physical challenges, he’s often the one to throw the first punch, and prompts attackers to get them revved up.
Karter is very instinctive, and always follows his gut feeling, no matter what it leads him to. He has sharp senses, and does his best to put them to good use. Karter is able to acknowledge his own flaws, physical and mental alike, and will even acknowledge them aloud, often very dismissively, and sometimes to the faces of others, unafraid of what others think of him. That doesn’t mean he prides himself on those flaws.
Karter is flighty, and liable to run from situations when he can, assuming it’s not a fight he started in the first place, and especially if it seems impossible odds, even if it leaves others at risk. He often feels no remorse about such things, though is decent at faking it should the need to do so arise. He’s selfish and he knows if, and sadly, he has no wish to change things on that front. He feels insecure about a number of things. For all his callous and cold commentary here and there, Karter is quite an emotional young man, and he’s unafraid to show it when the need to should arise.
