appearance: I stand in front of a mirror for perhaps the first time in a while. I'm just a small sixteen-year-old kid. My red hair has began to fade from its vibrant color ever since I hit my teen years, but this is the first time I've been able to see it for myself. It's short, just like all of the other boys in my school. Now it is turning into the norm. Almost brown hair, and I'll be waiting for it to fully go into that chocolaty color. When it does, I'll feel a bit better about myself. My eyes are a hazel color, moreso than Dad but not as much as Mom. I get my pale skin from them, too.

I've never been the tallest kid in my classes at school. I stand at 5'5". I don't weigh a lot, either. I guess I'm a petite little boy. Not a man. Other than that, I have plenty of small freckles on my face that go from the top of my nose to the side of my ears. My face in cleanly shaven. I have been trying as hard as I can to look like people in the District. Brown hair, dull eyes. I don't want to look unique.

personality: If you asked me what I was like, I probably wouldn't even answer you. I've never been fond of talking to people or having to read something aloud. I don't like being the center of attention, even if it means something that can help me in the long run. I'm not dead silent like my sister, Hypatia, but if you gave me the choice to either be talkative or silent, I would definitely choose silent.

Because of that, I've never really had strong relationships with anyone outside of my family. My father always told me to use my gifts to my advantage, and that if I tune out other people, I can reach my full potential. I guess he means with math skills. That has always been my best subject in school. Working with numbers and variables has always been something I love to do. It sounds weird coming from a kid like me, but numbers are truly fascinating. I spend so much more time inside my own mind than I do on the outside. My imagination runs wild every time I think about numbers, calculations, volume, area. Really, anything that has to do with math is my hobby.

If someone does get a few words out of me, they'll know me as a sweethearted, gentle, kind kid. Most of the time, this can be a good thing. However, there are people who walk all over others with those attributes. Outgoing people tend to, metaphorically speaking, trample over the people with more timid personalities.
