[hider=Callum P. Summers][center][img]http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/b503/sleepingtusk/Callum_zpsa6qe24md.jpg[/img][/center] [center][color=orange][b]Name:[/b][/color] Callum P. Summers [color=orange][b]Age:[/b][/color] 18 [color=orange][b]In-depth Appearance:[/b][/color] Callum is tall and well proportioned, when he isn't slouching he stands at roughly 6 foot and weighs around 162 pounds give or take a pound. His body is a work in process, or at least that's how he'd describe it, he's got some light muscle definition on his torso, his pectoral muscles are becoming more angular, with grooves appearing along his sides and across his abdomen to show his changing figure. His arms follow the same pattern, they're not bulky but they're firm and show when he tenses his arm. His legs are the same, visibly firm but in need of a little more work. His skin is naturally adaptable, fair until the sun comes out. It doesn't take him long to tan and tends to only suffer from sun burn across his the tops of his cheeks and the bridge of his nose. His hair is a dirty blonde color, during the summer he goes a lighter blonde with natural highlights and during the winter it goes a darker brown. He is able to grow facial hair and will often have a light dusting along his jawline, under his chin and across the bottom of his cheeks. He's got a scar on the top of his left eyebrow, about an inch in length and 0.5 cm in width, it's only really visible when he's close to people or in certain light. He's got another scar at the bottom of his right palm, it's a very thin line and is only around two inches long. He's got a few more scattered along his arms and legs, though unlike the other two they are merely reminders of his boisterous youth and the days he spent jumping around in bush forts. Callum's eyes are intense. With a thick storm grey ring surrounding a sea green iris and long eyelashes to emphasise their depth. Callum isn't very fashion savvy, the less clothes he has to wear the better in his opinion. He does have a thing for smart shirts when the time calls for it, though they [i]have[/i] to be ironed and accompanied by smart chinos or trousers. Casual wear wise it's a struggle to get him out of shorts and tanks tops. [/center] [center][color=orange][b]Personality:[/b][/color] Callum is a fun loving, arrogant, trouble maker. He's loud, pig-headed and care-free to a degree. Being around Callum can be a headache or fun, dependent on how he's perceived, he is the first one to try new things and encourage his friends to follow suit. He isn't firing on all cylinders and has a habit of saying stupid things, using wrong words to describe things in sentences and acting before he thinks. The thing with Callum is he knows he's not the sharpest tool in the shed but it doesn't stop him, he'll do what he wants to do and he'll become who he wants to be. Over time he's built up a thick skin to handle name calling or snide comments, he'll either allow it to simply slide over his head or attempt to battle it with humour rather than taking it to heart. He's proud of the way he looks and even more so about who he is, though a small part of him wishes he was an Einstein, he's not hung up on it. He likes being in a good mood and will take it upon himself to make other people feel the same way be it through jokes, light teasing or pranks...whether they work or not depends on the person, negative reactions just tend to bounce off of him. One of the draw backs of Callum's thick skinned attitude is his inability to open up to people emotionally, most of the time it's not that he doesn't want to it's more that he doesn't know how to. This doesn't stop him from being flirtatious, as long as its skin deep. He's terrible at reading other people when it comes to emotions and can come across as insensitive at times. The longer he's known someone the better he is at telling if something is up with them but unless they're balling their eyes out or shaking in fear, he struggles to connect the dots. He's got a few perks as well. Callum is energetic and jovial most of the time, he's a bit of a practical joker and will often try to lead others astray if they let him. His 'jokes' or tricks are often childish though, he's been known to tie buckets of goo to the tops of doors and put fake insects where they don't belong not to mention cling film...one day he'll grow out of it but as for right now it's painfully obvious he's still got a way to go. He tries his hardest to entertain his friends rather than irritate them...well, most of time. Sometimes he just can't help himself, he's a sucker for acting on impulse and part of being thick skinned makes him brave (or stupid). Alongside his childish mannerisms, he's got a few mature traits. He's actually a very dedicated person, be it to the people around, his work or even his pranks, once he's started something he'll see it through to the end no matter what. And when he hears the words “It won't make any difference” it only strengthens his resolve. He's the type of guy that will go above and beyond for the people he cares about, often to the point of going overboard. Which leads to Callum's biggest flaw, his aggression. He deals with things aggressively, 'hit it with my fists' is his go to way of dealing with things rather than engaging his mind or entering into a battle of wits. Trying to talk him round when he gets pumped up like this is a pain, it takes small words and clear meanings anything else winds him up further and he has been known to vent his frustration on helpless furniture in the past. [/center] [center][color=orange][b]Backstory:[/b][/color] Callum P. Grove was born into the Grove family eighteen years ago, he was the third born boy and has two brothers, Gregory and Thomas, who are three years older than him. A regular family, seated happily in the working class sector. His father is a pharmacist and his mother works in the hospitality circuit, cleaning hotels, being a waitress etc, around raising her children. His parents split up a year after he was born and his father left home, though he remained in contact with his children. By the time Callum was two, his mother had met someone else and given birth to his twin sisters, Aaliyah and Buffy. The girls dad, Jethro Summers, didn't become his step father until he was four because of complications with Callum's biological father. Growing up Callum has always considered himself closer to his mother and step-dad than his father and would often skip meetings with him or ignore requests to meet up. This behaviour brought the wrath of his brothers down on him and he spent the majority of his youth constantly hassled and tormented by the older boys, he was the brunt of their jokes and pranks, often embarrassed in front of his friends and roughed up. To this extent his brothers helped him become who he is today, though he probably could have lived without their bullying it taught him a few things and helped him build up a tough hide. Despite how much they ragged on him, if anyone else tried to do the same thing his brothers had his back. When he could escape his brothers Callum spent a fair amount of time helping out his mother by looking after his younger sisters and doing odd jobs around the house. When he was 14 he spent the whole summer building a tree house for his sisters to use, Jethro helped him out when he could, encouraging him to finish it regardless of how long it took often saying 'Determination son, that's the difference between getting somewhere and staying still'. During his high school years Callum came under a lot of pressure and started to go off the rails. At this time he had issues to deal with at home, his brothers left home and moved closer to their father, putting pressure on him to do the same but he resisted. At school, he was struggling to keep up with everyone academically and his knack for being immature and acting out of term was getting him into more trouble than it was worth. His aggressive mannerisms didn't help matters either and they got worse when his sisters started high school. If there is one thing Callum will not stand for, it's people messing around with his sisters. All through high school he tried not to get involved in their relationships. But nine times out of ten he'd give their guy friends or boyfriends the cold shoulder and go for them, if his sisters were harmed or put in harms way. If anything the girls both hated and to some degree enjoyed having their older brother as their protector. His protective habits often filtered into his friendships as well, always the first one to jump a friends defence regardless of consequences and without all the information. At the age of 16, Callum petitioned to change his last name to Summers, the final step to feeling more included in his family. At some point, when he wasn't being a goon, Callum found a group of friends to join, people that in turn evened him out, brought out the better side of him and even inspired him to buckle down to get some decent grades. He's worked alongside going to school for a time and has stock piled enough money to go travelling, though he's postponed leaving to spend the summer with his friends. In truth he doesn't know where he wants to go next, with mediocre grades and no idea where he wants to go next or where he wants to end up...right now he's content with just living in the moment and having a bit of fun.

Back when he was working as a barister, not the best paid job in the world but he enjoyed the social side of it, especially when it meant meeting new people, like Elizabeth. He tried to impress her with his coffee making 'skills', which he's still convinced worked considering she sought him out at school and they've been friends since. Callum generally targets Elizabeth first when he wants to convince the group to do something. Alongside Aiden, she's able to calm him down when he goes off on one. If Callum feels down or under the weather he goes straight to Elizabeth, she's got a knack for lifting his spirits. He's got a soft spot for her and has a terrible habit for calling her Lizzie, though he can be abruptly corrected by a wallop. |☺/♡| Alyx - [color=orange]"Alyx? Distant relative of the Ice Queen...annoyingly smart, enjoys insulting me and [i]always[/i] has to have the last word" [/color] Callum likes Alyx, more than he'd willingly admit. They tend to spend most of their time trading blows, figuratively. She's one of the only people who can really get under his skin, though he tries his best to give as good as he gets. Still, he likes teasing her and in return he enjoys the backlash it earns him, more so because he thinks of it as a competition if she rolls her eyes or gives him the death glare, he wins and if he gets irritated, he loses. There is more to it than that, Callum is the first person to jump to Alyx's defence whether she appreciates it or not and in case he oversteps, he often has red twizzlers close at hand, peace offerings. Callum had been aware of Alyx for some time, but only started talking to her after being introduced to her by Elizabeth. |☺| Eva - [color=orange]"She's full of energy, I mean enough to give Rose a run for her money. She's good fun to have around though we sometimes clash. She's got this whole protective thing going on, I kind of do to. It can make things awkward"[/color] Unsurprisingly Callum thinks highly of Eva. Especially considering how playful she is, he likes the energy she brings to the group and her willingness to have a laugh. He regulary attempts to enlist her in his schemes, which only really come to something if she accepts, which is a hit and miss game. She's got him well trained with her blunt delivery and ability to clearly define where they stand with each other, that's not to say Callum always remembers. There are times when he oversteps his mark and needs to be set straight, perhaps more often than anyone else. Just like Elizabeth, he doesn't treat Eva any differently because she's from a priveledged background, in fact he often forgets until it becomes glaringly obvious. Being a protective person himself, he can sometimes find Eva frustrating when she jumps into protect other people before he can. He says it's because he doesn't like her being in the path of danger, but it's probably more because it hurts his 'male pride'. Much like the others he met Eva when Elizabeth introduced him to the group. |☺| Rose - [color=orange]"Excited about everything, she reminds me of a puppy. Cute, full of energy and easily distracted"[/color] Callum met Rose shortly after meeting Loki. Rose is the second person Callum will lock on to if he wants the group to go out and do something. He's drawn to her bubbly personality and likes the fact that she's almost always excited about things. He's not entirely convinced she's as innocent and naive as she seems, namely because she reminds him of his sisters, especially when she ducks out from under Loki's shield. Considering how protective Loki already is of Rose, Callum doesn't feel the need to be overly protective of her. |☺| Loki - [color=orange]"He's a good guy, sticks up for his sister, I can respect that. I don't get why people rag on him all the time" [/color] Callum met Loki before he met Rose. He came across Loki when he was searching for a guy who'd wronged one of his sisters. The guy in question was ragging on Loki and Callum stepped in before things got a chance to get violent...well in the sense that he knocked the guy on his ass before saying "Didn't think you needed the help but I had to floor this guy, he messed with my sister" He wasn't really sure whether Loki would speak to him again after this but shortly after he met Rose and over time he's gotten to know them both. He likes Loki and doesn't understand why people feel the need to pick on him. He'll often ask Loki about his music and whether he can listen to it, he's calmest when around Loki unless someone decides to pick on him. |☺/🔥| Josh - [color=orange]"He's alright. I wouldn't say we get on well though, he annoys me, I annoy him...that's kind of it really"[/color] Callum has mixed feelings about Josh. The most obvious one to him, is jealousy. He is extremely jealous of Josh, for reasons he doesn't understand and reasons he hasn't accepted yet. This comes through in his behaviour when Josh is around, often in a mostly childish manner. Josh had an idea, Callum is instantly in the against corner, it's very rare he'll rise above this to agree with the guy. There can sometimes be this charged atmosphere around Josh and Callum, not violent per say but not exactly pleasant either, especially if Alyx is within the immediate vicinity. When he shrugs off the green eyed monster, Callum is able to have a good time with Josh, he actually thinks he's a real funny guy and fun to have around. It should be noted that as of yet, Callum [i]hasn't[/i] pranked Josh in any way since meeting him. Despite being tempted to, there is that smidgeon of maturity in him that knows doing so could send to a toxic place. Or at least that's what Callum thinks. |☺| Shay - [color=orange]"He's a scaredy cat, drama queen. We don't have much in common, except girls, Shay's an ace wingman"[/color] Callum's opinion of Shay is lacking depth, which is normal for him really. The pair met when Callum was dished out a different kind of detention. He was scripted into helping with one of seasonal drama productions and given the lead to boot. Completely lacking talent and instruction, it fell to Shay to teach him the ropes and whip him into shape. In turn Callum introduced him to the rest of the group and after the production was done, he kept up contact. He'll often ask Shay to be his wingman but overall they only really get along when the group is together. Callum is mostly unaware of Shay's rivalry with him, he tends to compete with everyone naturally but the 'rivalry' between these two is for the most part one sided. [/hider] [/hider] [hr] [hider=Silver 'Shay' Rowan] [center] [img]http://images6.fanpop.com/image/photos/38600000/Dylan-O-Brien-dylan-obrien-38660891-394-480.jpg[/img][/center] [center] [color=90EE90][b]Name:[/b][/color] Silver Rowan (Shay) [color=90EE90][b]Age:[/b][/color] 19 [color=90EE90][b]Indepth Appearance:[/b][/color] Shay stands at 5'8 and weighs in around about 11 stone. He's got a slim build, with slight definition around his torso and biceps. He's lightly tanned with soft skin, tailored by the variety of skin care products he uses to maintain a healthy glow. He's capable of growing patchy facial hair around the lower section of his face and under his chin, it tends to cling to his jawline rather than his cheeks. It's only when he's being particularly lazy or 'on a break' from acting or shooting that he tends to let it grow. He's got thick chocolate brown hair that curls if he lets it grow too long, he tends to keep it short but long enough for him to style. He'll often have enough product in his hair to fuel a small fire, yet his look rarely changes, he styles his hair to make it look 'casually' messy. He's got dark onyx eyes that are surprisingly expressive, just like the rest of his face. With a youthful looking expression and a smile that brightens up his entire face, Shay is often mistaken for being younger than he is. He sometimes wears a stud in his left ear with a cuff on top of the same ear. Veering away from piercings, Shay has one tattoo on the backs of his [url=https://www.askideas.com/media/45/Red-And-Black-Tribal-Design-Tattoo-On-Upper-Back.jpg] shoulders [/url] and two prominent scars. The first runs from the top of his lower arm between his elbow and the crook of his elbow, ending in a curled tip about halfway up his bicep. The second is a burn scar that dominates the inside of his left calf, it is most prominent nearer his ankle and gradually fades away as it travels up his calf. [/center] [center] [color=90EE90][b]Personality:[/b][/color] Witty. Adaptable. Cowardly. Theatrical. Confident. Organised. Shay is confident in his sexuality, he doesn't give two figs what other people think. If he wants to look after his skin and enjoy the finer things of life, he will. He [i]loves[/i] nothing more than sitting down and being pampered whilst nattering on about the latest gossip. He's not bothered about what's done to him as long as he's involved, which has been both intimidating and endearing with his friends. He doesn't hide this side of him from anyone, but he's sensitive enough to know when it makes people uncomfortable. If they feel that way he'll tend to tone it down a bit, maybe talk some sport or break out the movie speak. He likes having a strong network of interesting and unique people, so he's willing to wear a variety of masks to please them. His social calender is usually full to the brim as well as being strictly planned out, so as to avoid overlaps, be it punctuation based or people based. He knows some of his friends won't get on with others, so to avoid losing either he'll plan them around each other. It's only when he's around people he considers close friends, that Shay completely relaxes. He takes off his 'actor' masks, kicks back and worries less about how he appears to them. He can be very opinionated, dramatic and catty, though at the end of it, he's all bark and no bite. In fact he's possibly the biggest coward around, even when he's wearing one of his 'actor' masks, he struggles to hide his fear and has a whole system of coping mapped out to deal with it on and around the stage. In real life he can't deal with it, if things get dangerous or even remotely scary he has no qualms about turning tail and fleeing to find the nearest place to hide. [/center] [center][img]http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/b503/sleepingtusk/ezgif.com-resize_zpsaajfw4nt.gif[/img][/center] [center] [color=90EE90][b]Backstory:[/b][/color] Shay's past for the most part is best described as picture perfect. He grew up with both of his parents and had an older brother. His childhood was uneventful, though his parents were far from rich, Shay grew up wanting for nothing. He's also been theatrical, even from a young age and often found that he got on better with girls rather than boys because of this. Football, rounders, running...they've never been his thing, he much preferred playground games involving imagination and less physical exertion. He was a big fan of sleepovers, movie watching and even enjoyed a bit of pampering. When he was due to move up to high school, Shay's perfect life took a hard hit, with the loss of his brother who was five years older than him. His brother hadn't always approved of Shay's choices, he often told people they weren't related when Shay first started high school. It wasn't until Shay figured out why and started to build up what he calls his 'actor' masks that his brother took more of an interest in him. Actor masks were a brilliant way for Shay to please the people around him, by locking himself away and tailoring his personality to the situation he was in, he was able to break into nearly any social circle. The more well known he was, the easier it became to avoid bullies and enjoy a few of his hobbies, like theatre. Shay was barely 6 months into his new school, when his brother decided to smuggle him into a college party he'd been invited to. The pair rode over on his brother's bike and spent the majority of the evening partying, even though Shay wasn't of legal age to be drinking, he did taste his first beer that night. His brother steered clear of alcohol and past midnight drove them home, despite the fact it had started raining. There was an accident that left Shay hospitalised and took his brother's life. After this event Shay's family life slowly begun to deteriorate. The loss of a child was too much for his parents to deal with, the blame would often bounce from one family member to the next before bouncing back round again. Shay's mother couldn't deal with the pressure so a year after the accident she upped and left, leaving Shay with his father. His father had always favoured his brother but he tried to support Shay in what he does, if not in a somewhat awkward manner. He doesn't believe that acting is a steadfast career but because Shay has his heart set on it, he's quietly determined to help him however he can. It hasn't always been easy but Shay managed to continue on with his life, it'd be wrong to say these events didn't change him but he's talented at hiding his true feelings away. As time went by, he found a quirky group of friends that he feels comfortable around. Shay was probably over-excited about the idea of joining them for a summer vacation, he's arrived a day later than everyone else because of a stage audition in California.

I've never met anyone that warm and welcoming with that much [i]money[/i] before, she's so willing to help others...though I like to remind her, she needs to be selfish sometimes. Call me clichéd but Elizabeth is a true diamond among rhinestones"[/color] Shay's opinion of Elizabeth is showered with praise. He likes her selfless attitude and willingness to please others, but he also has a certain level of disdain about it. He feels like she sometimes gives too much, so he's made it his personal mission to give back to her, be that through small gestures, gifts or words. He can be very funny towards her when she tries to shoulder any blame that wasn't hers in the first place. Shay prefers to use actions rather than words around Elizabeth, especially if she's upset, he has no qualms offering a shoulder or a hug. He likes to spend most of his time near either her or Alyx. He met Elizabeth through Callum during the dreaded drama performance stage, since then he's gradually built up a high opinion of her. |✧| Alyx - [color=90EE90]"Ho, ho. Now here is a girl you do [i]not[/i] want to get on the bad side of! I [i]love[/i] Alyx, the fact she has claws just makes everything that much more entertaining. [i]Do not[/i] repeat this, but I see through her...I know underneath all of that bravado, she's a kitten"[/color] Shay can't help but love Alyx. Not only does she constantly snipe at Callum which brings him no end of joy, but he likes her sharp around the edges attitude, plus the sass that comes with it. He's not so keen to see the day she turns on him and for the time being, he actually goes out of his way to stay on her good side. He's especially fond of any and [i]all[/i] gossip that comes from Alyx, perhaps a little too much. As it is Shay thinks highly of her and is always willing to lend her an ear or shoulder, he's not sure enough to break the hugging barrier yet. He likes to spend most of his time near either her or Elizabeth. He met Alyx through Callum when he was introduced to the group, he instantly took a shine to her when she berated Callum, inevitably winning the small back and forth they had. |✧/?| Eva - [color=90EE90]"Eva...wow, I can't think of just one thing to say, there are so many!...It's kind of warm in here, am I flushing?...Eh-hem. Right, Eva, well she's a lot of fun to be around. Playful. If not the bluntest person I've ever met, there's no beating around the bush with her and she's got this talent for letting you know where you stand with her. It's refreshing"[/color] It took Shay a lot of effort not to mention the fact that he personally thinks Eva is gorgeous. He knows all of his female friends are gorgeous, he'll often tell them so. But if he's not prepared for it Eva can throw him off guard, something that is [i]not[/i] easy to do. He likes being around her, just as much as he does the others but he's actually careful around Eva. Careful with what he says, how he acts and he usually discreetly makes sure that he isn't left alone with just her. He gets very nervous when she goes vigilante, it's odd because he finds it somewhat endearing at the same time. Shay met Eva when Elizabeth introduced her to the group. |✧| Rose - [color=90EE90]"She's so bubbly and full of life. I mean the smallest thing can get her hyped, just being around her makes me feel lighter than air! I get excited about the weirdest things when I'm around Rose. She can be frustrating at times as well, her attention span is pretty darn short"[/color] Shay thinks he gets on well with Rose. He finds that she makes him feel younger, even though there isn't much of an age difference between them. He can't relate to the pain she must have felt losing both of her parents, but a part of him understands such a deep seated loss, this similarity makes him feel just that little more comfortable around her. He won't allow her or Callum to loop him into any pranks but he does find it amusing if Rose gets involved in them, well unless they're directed at him, then he tends to get sulky with her and completely ignore Callum. He gets frustrated when Rose struggles to stay focused, especially if he's asked her to run lines with him or something. He met Rose when Callum introduced him to the group, took a while but after a few meetings he started to warm to her. |☺| Loki - [color=90EE90]"Ermmm, well, I'm not a hundred percent sure of Loki. He's a friendly enough guy, happy, especially when he's around his sister. Though I think he's a little [i]too[/i] protective of her, not that it's my place to say anything but you know, I just can't keep my mouth closed, makes things a liiiittle awkward between us sometimes"[/color] Shay's opinion of Loki is a double edged sword. One the one hand, he has an ample amount of respect for him, he feels that similar connection with Loki as he does Rose, that they understand the loss he lives with. -Not that he'll talk to either of them about it mind you) He enjoys chatting with Loki when possible and even has a sneaky suspicion that he's crushing on a certain someone, of whom he strongly opposes, but hasn't quite worked up the courage to ask Loki about it yet. On the other he can't help himself from getting involved in Loki and Rose's business, he'll often encourage Loki to ease off if he gets too protective of Rose, which he knows isn't his place to do so and often sulks if he gets backlash for it. He met Loki when Callum introduced him to the group, though it took a while for him to form a steady friendship with him. |☺| Josh - [color=90EE90]"Ah the [i]'Angel'[/i] of our group. I mean he really has that hot, broody, vampire click to a T, I have seen the effect he has on the ladies...it's both awe-inspiring and deeply depressing. I'll give him his dues though, when he's not being an anti-social git, he's pretty awesome to hang around with. He is the master at verbal burns" [/color] Shay likes to point out to Josh that the whole broody vampire click went out of fashion a few years back but the truth of it is, he admires him. Not necessarily because of those things but because of what he accomplishes through it, yes he is jealous that he's a successful ladies man and yes, he's ashamed of being jealous about it. He wouldn't go as far as to say that him and Josh get on brilliantly, being as they have very little in common on paper but he finds his company pleasant enough. Shay tends to put on his 'actor' mask when he's around Josh, mostly because he unintentionally intimidates him, much like Callum does. It should be said that regardless of the fact his break up with Alyx was drama free, Shay is and probably always will be in Alyx's corner. He met Josh when Callum introduced him to the group, it's been a touch and go progression of friendship. |☺/🔥| Callum - [color=90EE90]"An acquired taste. I mean, sure he's got the look but in my opinion he's missing the inner feels. Here, wait, this is how I'd sum up Callum, he [i]looks[/i] like an appealing orange revel but when you take a bite you realise, he's all coffee"[/color] Shay met Callum during a drama production. Callum wasn't there by choice, Shay of course was. He had been gunning for the main until Callum was cast for it, much to both of their dismay. Despite hard feelings, Shay made the decision to help Callum succeed in his role for the sake of everyone else in the play and the performance itself. It was a success and through Callum, Shay was able to meet the others of his group and increase his network of friends. Since that play, his and Callum's relationship has been an odd one, made up mostly of necessity with a huge dollop of rivalry and a sprinkling of genuine friendship. He is ultimately intimidated by Callum. [/hider] [/hider]
