Brands don't matter. As long as the pieces are deemed comfortable by him, he will wear it. Other habits include keeping his hair semi long, in the sense that it is cut short but is kept in a messy manner. Wears glasses, not the lens-less kind. He needs them, but not as much as one might assume. Overall, just your typical teenager. Personality: In short, he is a sassafras. Intelligent, he will have some sort of witty comeback for just about anything. Underneath this rather irritating exterior, he is quite caring. Despite her primary magic being the control of fire, he is quite calm and collected. He will avoid confrontation before engaging. A lover, not a fighter, in the truest sense of the word. If one was to examine his family history and his upbringing, they would very quickly conclude that he is one of those 'born with a silver spoon up their ass' types. However, he really is not. He is genuine, most of the time, and rather easy to approach. Crush: Currently open Skills: -Decent control of his magical abilities -A conversationalist -Skilled in using edged weapons Weaknesses: -Aquamancy by nature -Too trusting of those he deem trustworthy -A hopeless romantic Brief History: XiaoBao was born approximately 16 years ago in Taiwan. His parents, both descendants of pure-blood magical families, met at a secret social gathering for the magically attuned. The heads of their house knew of each other and what they stood for, and immediately gave their blessing on the budding relationship. On his mother's side, the family had a very successful business. When his mother and father married, it was discovered that, though he seemed every bit a 'Jack-Of-All-Trades' type, his father actually was very entrepreneurial and had a knack for running a good business. Under the leadership of his mother and father, the family business thrived, paving the way of the lifestyle XiaoBao and his family grew accustomed to. Two years after he was born, XiaoBao's parents had a daughter. Currently 14, she has not displayed any sort of magical abilities, leading his parents to wonder if she has no magical abilities... Growing up, XiaoBao was never wanting. He simply had to ask, and he received. However, that is not to say his parents gave him everything he wanted without first validating the need or merit in XiaoBao receiving what he is asking for. For example, for some reason when he was eight, XiaoBao wanted a vintage watch to wear. These are valued in similar fashion to collector's cars. XiaoBao asked for a vintage Radiomir Panerai, one of the more expensive vintage watches in the market, if one can even have one imported from Europe. His parents agreed, on the condition of him doing whatever chore they asked of him, without recourse, for six months. When six months came and gone, and Xiaobao fulfilled his part of the bargain, a pristine Panerai watch showed up in his room one afternoon and it was his to keep and care for. Until this day, XiaoBao still has the watch, although he does not wear it anymore. Being exposed to magic even before he was born, XiaoBao became naturally good at any lesson his parents taught him. The most basics of them all, he can handle. The rest, his parents decided, he was going to learn them from a proper professor, in a proper school. Other: -He loves to cook, but cannot utilize flour in any application. -Secretly enjoys Hip Hop music and street culture. [/hider]
