Alexander - A few people around Caelbury call him by his last name, though not many. Spielberg JR - A name that Finn get's behind his back, it stems from his talent in the film department, and the camera that is constantly around his neck.

However Finn got in via his skills with film, being a gifted cinematographer and script writer, and having created more than a few short films that killed at festivals around the world.[/indent] [color=skyblue][b][u]Appearance[/u][/b][/color] [indent]Finn is pretty attractive by today's standards. His style can best be described as grungy. He wears black converse with holes in them, and he's probably always wearing a pair of joggers. In the top department, a flannel and a white undershirt are common, but hoodies aren't unheard of. His eyes are a stormy grey, and intense, with the spark of creativity in them. He has a smattering of freckles across his nose, along with a scar on his chest from a camping incident. Height wise he's decently tall at about 6'2, and pretty slim at about 160 pounds. Finn's ever present smile shows off faint dimples, and straight teeth that are the result of four years of braces. While not heavily muscled, Finn has faint muscle definition, the result of weekly gym trips and a good deal of missed meals from staying up working on his newest project. His dirty blonde hair is unruly, and he sometimes covers it with a beanie, though most of the time he just lets it be, flattening it with water and going about his day.

I think I just fucked up.[/i][/center] [hr] [color=skyblue][b][u]Personality[/u][/b][/color] [indent]What is there to say about Finn Alexander? Finn would describe himself as a paragon of creativity, the next da Vinci, and quite possibly a fallen angel. Most people would start with narcissistic. Then they'd move on to sarcastic. And then they'd say creative genius. Each one of those is true. Finn is extremely cocky, a defense mechanism to deal with the insecurities he faces, being surrounded by geniuses and billionaires. His humor is of the sarcastic nature, dry and quick. As a friend, Finn is an acquired taste. He means well, and he's loyal, though he can get wrapped up in his projects and forget about important events. However he's extremely apologetic to those he cares about, and despite his forgetfulness, he always remembers people's birthdays. He thinks that loyalty is very important, and is of the mentality that snitches, and anyone who betrays their friends, is a waste of space. Among other issues, he has some issues with authority, and is often reluctant to be bossed around.

He hates thinking that he might not make it in life, seeing as how the film industry is an unforgiving one that is hard to break into. Although this fear has been assuaged somewhat by his attendance at Caelbury, he still wakes up in a cold sweat from a nightmare that involves no one attending his funeral.[/indent] [hr] [center][img]http://s3.favim.com/orig/141018/cute-smile-ansel-elgort-Favim.com-2162333.gif[/img] [i]"Okay I know I'm late.

His parents were happy for a short while after his birth, but shortly after, they began bickering, something that had been around before he had. By the time he was three, he and his mom had left his father and were living with her family. His mother never spoke much about their time with his father, and he didn't see him for a few years. Eventually he popped back into the picture, when Finn was seven, and his mother was remarried. He found that he couldn't stand his father, and it wasn't long before he came to resent the man who'd been a stranger for four years. By the time Finn was 12 he wasn't in a great place. He had friends, even a girlfriend, if you could call her that at that age, but he wasn't very happy. He'd stopped seeing his dad and it had resulted in a nasty outburst from his father. However that changed when he was placed into a media course at his school, a course which he excelled in. His mom bough him a video camera that Christmas, and from that point, no one in his home went long without debuting in one of his short films. By the age of 14, Finn was entering short film contests and blowing the other contestants out of the water, with original scripts and bombshell cinematography. He stumbled across one film festival that offered a prestigious scholarship to the Caelbury Academy as the grand prize and he decided to try it out. To his surprise he won, and he was enrolled at the school for his freshman year. Finn's time at Caelbury has been stellar. He's become one of the more popular students, and his creativity has flourished while there. Despite his lack of wealth, he hasn't faced too much injustice, although one group of filthy rich kids seem to get a bad taste in their mouth whenever he walks by. He hasn't seen his dad in a few years, but if it bothers him, it doesn't show.[/indent] [color=skyblue][b][u]Favorite memory[/u][/b][/color] [indent]Finn's favorite memory is probably receiving the letter that he'd won the scholarship, seeing as how he knew that Caelbury was a gateway to success.[/indent] [color=skyblue][b][u]Least favorite memory[/u][/b][/color] [indent]Also optional. One moment that was somehow traumatizing to your character, or something they really dislike thinking about. If you don't do this, delete it.[/indent] [hr] [center][img]http://cdn4.teen.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/ansel-elgort-shailene-woodley-tfios-crying-gif.gif[/img] [i]"I really don't like crying, but I really hate people to see me cry.
