[attr="class","hopelovetitle"]PERSONALITY

[attr="class","hopelovetop"]







[UNATTATCHED] While not a relentless or shameless flirt, Castor does know he's good-looking and tends to come off very confident in the flirting department. He's dated a lot of females, though the implication that he's a heartbreaker would make him internally wince. While it's true that he moves on very quickly from relationship to relationship, he considers himself far too empathetic to break hearts in his wake. He's never found anyone that can keep his attention for more than a few weeks. [break][break]
[EMPATHETIC] He's a generally nice guy. Compared to most Romans, he's practically a teddy bear. His upbringing instilled a strong sense of empathy to others. He can be very diplomatic and ease tension between arguments or diffuse tense situations. Due to his nature and the gifts from his father, he can be very persuasive when he wants to be. [break][break]
[FUN-LOVING] The boy likes to have a good time. He's known the darker side of life and actively chooses to dwell on the light side as much as possible. He likes laughing and being around loud noises. When given the opportunity, he would happily spend all of his free time in New Rome at a party or socializing with others.[break][break]
[CURIOUS] While he would never call himself a book-worm or be accused of being a nerd, the boy is inquisitive when it comes to a wide variety of things. He's been known to read entire volumes of books simply to test a theory or satiate whatever curiosity it peaked. He might not know advanced mathematical equations, but don't be surprised if he pulls out a random quote or historical fact seemingly out of the blue. [break][break]
[ BIG BROTHER ] Castor has always had to play the role of big brother to people in his life, even to those that he was sometimes much younger than. The role comes naturally to the boy and he doesn't mind it. He tends to reach out to struggling legionnaires in his cohort or take a probatio or two under his wing. He takes his Centurion duties to heart and considers everyone under his command his personal responsibility. [break][break]
[FORGIVING] If you do get him mad enough to make him want to attack you, your best option is to apologize swiftly. He is rarely mad but when that anger is pushed, there's not much he can do to hold it back. He tends to use his powers relentlessly until the other side yields or he passes out. The fortunate thing, however, is that he forgives and forgets almost instantly. He doesn't hold grudges and doesn't harbor anger. [break][break]

[attr="class","hopelovetitle"]BIOGRAPHY

[attr="class","hopelovetop"]







Castor was born to a Jane Doe who died in labor with him. Nothing was known about the woman nor the child so no relatives were ever contacted. The baby was placed into social housing, but didn't stay long at the large facility. Castor was placed into the care of a temporary foster home, to an older couple who took in kids until people who could give them permanent homes were found. Castor grew up with a rotating group of children around him at all times. As the child grew he quickly developed the personality of looking after the others, despite at times being much younger than a few of them. [break][break]
He grew up with relatively few issues. It was clear that he was athletically gifted and his temporary foster parents enrolled him in as many team sports as they could afford. He had no issues at school though he had never shown much interest in excelling academically. At the age of twelve, the couple adopted him officially, though Castor had never felt that he wasn't always their child. He grew up with a constant rotation of siblings and family and had no complaints. His life was perfectly perfect. Until it wasn't. [break][break]
At the age of fourteen, he had gone to the zoo with his family. He had been in charge of the younger kids and had been holding up one of his six-year-old sisters to see one of the animals better when he felt a cold chill run down his spine. It had been during the summer and he had looked around in confusion only a moment before his eyes had fallen upon a hellhound. [break][break]
At the time of course he had no idea of that, only that there was a large and vicious dog that seemed intent to eat him alive so he had ran with his sister in his arms. He ran to his family and couldn't understand why they were not reacting to the beast. His mother asked why he was upset at a big fluffy dog when the thing launched itself at him. Castor had moved to defend his family, to push them out of the way, but as he had moved quickly to the left his body had instantly been transported not directly to the left but a few hundred feet to the left. [break][break]
Castor had shakily wobbled on his feet, expecting to see the thing attacking his family when much to his surprise, it turned in his direction and ignored his family completely. Castor had been relieved and horrified all at the same time. The boy did the only thing he knew to do: run. To which the animal chased. He had made it out of the park and into the nearby woods when the creature leapt at him, knocking him down. The two rolled together, Castor's arms getting scratched deeply before his fingers found a rock, striking the animal who, thankfully, ran away after the blow. [break][break]
He had no sooner sat up when a deity appeared, claiming to be none other than his father. The god explained who he was and what he had to do. Castor hadn't wanted to leave his family but knew it was no longer safe for them. So he did what all Romans do and faced Lupa. [break][break]
Castor spent a year with the she-wolf and arrived at camp at the age of fifteen. He had not been as bloodthirsty as Lupa had wanted him to be. He had not cared to challenge other students or dominate the training, to Lupa's dismay. The son of Mercury was placed into the third cohort, which had been just fine with him. He learned that he excelled at swordsmanship and how to properly wield his gifts. He adapted well to his new family and his new way of life. The constant in and out of new people was almost comforting. He has served eight years in the legion and plans to finish his full commitment before starting a career in new rome.

[attr="class","hopelovetitle"]POWERS, SKILLS & WEAPONS

[attr="class","hopelovetop"]







[TELEPORTATION - MAJOR] Castor has the ability to instantaneously move from one location to another without occupying the space in between. If it's a short distance, usually within a mile, he can be quite accurate. If it's anything over that distance he must concentrate extremely hard and even then there's a good chance he'll end up somewhere else entirely. [break][break]
[SWORDSMANSHIP - MINOR] Castor, following his father's footsteps, is an excellent swordsman. He finds skill with the blade to come quite easy and has been training with it since the moment he joined the legion. [break][break]
[CONVINCING - MINOR] When Castor puts his concentration into it, he can be extremely convincing. Not in the almost instantaneous way that the children of Jupiter or Venus are of course, but he can make his arguments and demands quite hard to turn down, especially if he can physically touch them. [break][break]
