[center][color=#000099] [u][b]Personality[/b][/u] [/color][/center] Spencer is a nerd. Not your stereotypical nerd, but still a nerd. He's always talking about the latest technology, working on his own technological projects, and even tampering with others' things to "help". Spencer takes a lot of pride in his own technology and anything he's into or passionate about. A bit part of Spencer's interests in the paranormal and supernatural. Spencer is a hardcore believer in ghosts, hauntings, possessions, poltergeists, and anything relating to the supernatural. Ever since a young boy, he'd been into ghost hunting and looking for explanations for all things paranormal. Aside from all of this, Spencer is a pretty nice guy. He tries to be as respectful as possible, especially with his friends. He's fun to be around, always bringing positive vibes to his friends. He can be very serious when it comes to his ghost and technology projects, though.

Being the middle child, he took interest in solitary activities as his older brother, Charles, took up and interest in football and his younger brother, Brandon, was way too young to be interested in Spencer's favorite things. At first, Spencer wanted to be like his big brother and play football. After trying out for the junior league team in middle school, he was an average player. He didn't play too much and when he did, he didn't get much action. One game, he was tackled hard and tore his ACL, forcing him to hang up the cleats and give up the sport. During his recovery period, he watched a lot of television. He began to get bored of watching the same sitcoms and cartoons, so he browsed through the numerous channels available. He saw a documentary on ghosts and instantly fell in love, wanting to find out more about the paranormal. In the summer leading to his freshman year of high school, Spencer got into technology. His mother brought home a voice recorder from a garage sale, a novelty she used to remind herself of what she needed to get done. Spencer played with it and would record his research about ghosts and the paranormal. That summer, the three boys had to stay at their grandmother's house as their mother had to go on a business trip for a couple weeks. Spencer brought the recording device, wanting to try and "ghost hunt". After learning the history of the property, Spencer discovered it used to belong to a woman who was murdered back in the 1850s. Curious and somewhat in disbelief, Spencer went into the basement late at night to see if he could find anything interesting. He remembered a trick about the recording device, learning that ghosts could use it to speak if they pleased. So, Spencer did just that and turned it on. What he found scared him. He played the audio back and heard what could be deciphered as a cry for help before a shriek was heard after a long silence. Spencer stopped his ghost adventures at first, but secretly enjoyed the thrill of it. Throughout high school, Spencer tinkered with technology, especially anything that would help him document the paranormal. He'd go out to supposedly haunted places to find evidence of such claims. When Spencer heard that Mary Clarice was haunting the school, he knew it was his job to get to the bottom of it. Now in his senior year of high school, he plans to put a rest to the rumors of Mary Clarice haunting the school. Though he's been stopped time and time again by teacher and staff, he still pushes to find evidence. He's even had the club be on the verge of being shut down before he promised not to try and solve the mystery of the school haunting. Spencer now plans on investigating the school with his club now in secrecy. [/hider]
