Troy normally sports a more redneck or blue collar look especially when he’s wearing his leather protective gear for shop class. However, when he relaxes he normally wears loose fitting brown or black slacks with a light jacket and running shoes. [color=92278f]Jewelry and Tattoos[/color]: A necklace his aunt gave him, a leather strap with a medium-sized wire wrapped Smokey quartz crystal hanging from it. [color=92278f]Scars:[/color] Multiple new and old scars across his arms, mostly small burn scars. As well as a few larger ones on his chest. [color=92278f]WHY are you a witch?[/color] Troy was introduced to Wicca by his Aunt Sasha as a way to cope with the loss of his parents and brother. Although it was a little strange for him at first, he soon grew to enjoy it and its teachings. Finding its use both relaxing and peaceful for his heart and mind. [color=92278f]His class schedule is:[/color] 1 – Shop Class 2 - English 3 - Math 4 – Study Period Lunch 5 – Health 6 – Weight Training [color=92278f]Personality and interests[/color] [color=92278f]General:[/color] Generally speaking, Troy can be categorized as the strong silent type. He enjoys working with his hands and being alone finding the company of most others to be bothersome at best. Slow to anger but when he is angry it could be summarized as a burning rage. The boy doesn’t always pick up on social ques and prefers others to be blunt with him even if it seems rude. He can be a dick sometimes, but he means well. Ultimately he just wants to protect and help others. He finds joy in seeing others smile from his actions and can be very selfless towards the few people he calls friends.

[color=92278f]Phobias:[/color] Thalassophobia – can’t do much when he’s out in open deep water. Mostly large lakes and oceans. Has a fear of being helpless or paralyzed in situations where he could help. As well as a deep-seated fear of forgetting the ones he loves. [color=92278f]Background:[/color] Troy was born to a rather well off family in bend Oregon. His father was a manager at a manufacturing facility and his mother worked as a lawyer. He had an older brother as well that was much more outgoing and intellectually gifted compared to him. They lived in a nice ranch style home just outside the city and enjoyed outdoor activities together. A rather nice and quiet upbringing for him, that was until he was 12. He remembers that night. Often having nightmares about it. Their family was coming back from a camping trip late one evening. They were supposed to have stayed the whole weekend out at the lake but a storm system was moving in and pushed them out of the area. That same storm caught up with them in the darkness. Now troy wasn’t afraid of storms and actually enjoyed them up until this point. For you see they weren’t alone on that stretch of high way. Another car heading in the opposite direction swerved into their lane. The driver had been drinking and decided to go for a late night drive in the company truck. He doesn’t remember much after that. The collision gave him a concussion, internal bleeding, several broken ribs, and 3rd degree burns across his chest. His father and brother died in the crash, his mother died shortly after in the hospital. The driver of the other vehicle suffered a broken leg but was otherwise OK. Troy woke up in a hospital a week later and hardly remembered who he was or who his parents were. His aunt Sasha Warnock from Rome Georgia took him in after that, she was a personal trainer that often worked with high level athletes. Since then, he was rather reclusive after the wreck, dealing with depression and physical therapy. It took him a year before he enrolled in school again. Even then he was still quiet, rarely responding to anything from anyone. He did his school work and went home where his aunt would teach him about Wicca and work with him through his depression. [color=92278f]Skills / Training:[/color] Troy excels at anything that requires him to work with his hands. Blacksmithing, carpentry, mechanic work, landscaping, plumbing. He favors blacksmithing over the others. He is currently training on whatever medical courses he can get his hands on and holds an advanced first aid and CPR certificate. The boy also has good skills with wielding swords and axes as well as with boxing. When it comes to spells and the like. Well, he’s a natural and a born witch he just doesn’t know it. He has an elemental gift being the blessing of fire. With this gift he always seems to be warm but never overheats and has an affinity but not an obsession with fire. Other than that he practices candle and rune magic. He is a little unsure of how much this actually helps him and others but tries his best to work with protection and luck magic. [color=92278f]Languages:[/color] English [color=92278f] Stuff he sucks at:[/color] He’s not all that great with communication, but he’s getting better at it. Troy can also be forgetful due to his head injury and has a hard time recalling names or faces to the point where he gives others nick names to help him remember. He’s also not always the best student when it comes to history or higher level mathematics. [color=92278f]Gear:[/color] Small pocket knife. A steel polished Zippo lighter with a pentagram engraved into one side. A tool bag with misc. Automotive and carpentry tools. A short sword and bearded ax that he made (Doesn’t bring them to school). An advanced medical kit he put together (keeps it in his truck). [color=92278f]Home Life[/color]: His Aunt Sasha had a fairly large sum of money from a legal settlement and lives comfortably with troy. After she had a stroke she has a caregiver that takes care of her at the house during the day and Troy takes care of her at night. She doesn’t talk much and can’t get around on her own very well. She mostly just sits in her favorite chair in the living room and either watches TV or looks out the front window. When troy is home he spends his time talking to her about his day or working the forge he built in their back yard. there is also an old shed in the back yard that's partially covered in vines, locked behind the door is an alter Sasha helped him make.

Victor Warnock – 45 – Father – Deceased. Anita Warnock, Maiden name Olsen - 42 – Mother – Deceased. Trevor Warnock - 16 – Older Brother – Deceased. [color=92278f]Job:[/color] Handy man, works odd jobs around town mostly carpentry or mechanical work for less than he should but really doing it to help and have some extra pocket money. [color=92278f]How do you get around? [/color]Walking if it’s not time sensitive, but he does drive a blue ford ranger when he has too. [color=92278f]Rumors:[/color] There is a few rumors tossed around that he is a serial killer because he is a little creepy sometimes. Another rumor is that he was in jail for a while or is in witness protection due to him never talking about his family or childhood. Because of these things and just him being intimidating with his size and constant silence he doesn’t get bullied too often. When he does it’s always something said behind his back or when the bullies approach in a group. [color=92278f]Nick Names:[/color] Mostly things he thinks of to help him remember others. Ashlyn Winters - [color=ed1c24]The Phoenix[/color] - "Rise from the ashes and be born again" Hair reminds him of fire. Jessica Bowman - [color=00a651]The Firefly[/color] - "Dancing like a leaf on the wind" she has a natural grace about her. Diane Mathews - [color=f7941d]The Dragon[/color] - "Her heart of fire beats with burning desire" something about her seems enchanting. Samantha Greene - [color=0054a6]The Ifrit[/color] - "I'll look for the glow among the fiery embers of your burning soul" There's a hint of danger behind her pragmatic eyes. [/hider]
