Name: Dimitri Holmes
Age: 16
Appearance: Dimitri stands at approximately 5'8" and weighs somewhere around one hundred and sixty two pounds. Physique wise, Dimitri is just slightly above average in terms of musculature which stems from the fact that he took up wrestling up until the second semester of his freshman year. He is of biracial descent (african american and caucasian to be specific), with light brown skin, a round face, a few darker brown freckles set over a somewhat flat nose, and dark grey eyes. Dimitri sports shoulder length black dreadlocks that are almost always kept tied back with rubber bands, ribbons, or whatever else he can use in a pinch, and as far as facial hair goes, he lacks any sort of lip hair, but sports the beginnings of a goatee. Common clothing consists of hoodies, t-shirts, cargo pants, and boots or sneakers of varying colors.
Bio: A kid brought up in a normal manner in a normal suburban household, two parents with nice enough jobs, a little brother and sister who drive him up the walls, you know, the usual shit. At some point Dimitri's family noticed something was a bit off with Dimitri. He'd spend hours of his free time hanging around in parks and other wooded areas instead of going out with friends, and he would always come back with some sort of scaly creature or another claiming that it needed food or warmth. His father thought that his son's odd habits could be curbed by taking him out to get a pet, figuring maybe he'd go for a dog or something equally common. Dimitri chose a tokay gecko. Good news is; Dimitri started spending more time with people and less time in the woods, bad news is; Dimitri was caught multiple times having "one sided" conversations with his pet. Psychiatric evaluation was considered, but Dimitri's lack thereof of signs indicating mental issues made the decision difficult. An alternative would be found in Iziel High school where he now attends classes.
Personality: A mellow, if not lazy individual with an odd quirk or two. He's decent enough student if the subject at hand can keep his interest, however his laziness has been known to jeopardize his grades and leave him scrambling to make up the work before it's too late. He loves reptiles, and has made a habit of carrying around his gecko, Minty, around his classes by having her ride around in his hood all day. Nothing seems to bother Dimitri. At all. Ever. It can actually be a bit unnerving at times just how okay with everything this kid seems.
Ability: Capable of conversing with reptiles, and not just him speaking *at* them or ordering them around either: Dimitri could have a full blown conversation with an alligator provided that it didn't go and bite his legs off first. He can sort of do it with birds and amphibians too, but he claims that trying to talk to them is like trying to have a conversation with someone who only speaks pig latin.
