[indent]Rachel is like a manic pixie dream girl, but instead of having a [i]magical[/i] effect on just males, she's there in everyone's minds, even in the slightest, and has touched more than enough people's hearts (for better or for worse). One of those that got too close to [i]The Intangible[/i] was Zayden, since they are the same year and had more than enough classes together for them to build a [i]platonic[/i] friendship. She ran the show in her sorority and he was one of the 'prince charmings' of his frat. On top of that, he was always there to help her help others, especially when it came to her ragers. She [b]knew[/b] she could count on him with whatever and he wouldn't say no. Nowadays, he wants to break himself from the spell that is Rachel Ashford and enjoy his last summer with his peers from Woodford University. God, did he really graduate? Maybe he should continue his education and get his masters...[/indent][/cell][/row][/table]

| [color=#b31b1b][b]Upbringing Synopsis[/b][/color] |
[indent]Zayden Aspen grew up only vaguely remembering his birth mother. He chooses to forget. At the time Ryland was three, and he was five. His father had been married with this woman for a good five years. He'd like to assume the reason his 'mother' got hitched with his father was because she was pregnant and wanted to take his father's hard earned money. A gold digger, precisely. His father, Rhett, sadly fell for her charm and spent the first five years of Zayden's life going through manipulative and verbal abuse. Until one day she wanted a divorce and ran off with a bigger and better man, leaving the two boys she helped create behind. It didn't help that the only thing unfortunate about Rhett's life was love. 

For eleven years, it was his father, him, and his little brother versus the world! Somehow, his dad was able to work on his voice acting career, still bringing home big bucks, and make time for what truly mattered: the family. When Rhett couldn't be there for his sons, he was sure to have someone he trusted watch over them. Whether it be his sisters, or his two best friends. 

Because of all the strong and inspirational figures in Zayden's life, the boy grew up to be confidant, with little damage. Still some damage, having to deal with his birth mom, but hey, aside from that? Zay thought he was good. He didn't have to work multiple jobs like his dad did when he was young. He had a roof over his head, food on his plate, and money in his bank. He was blessed and he knew that. One thing was for sure, he was determined to use his time wisely so that he can make those he loved [i]proud[/i]. 

From that moment on, he chose to be proactive, understanding exactly what he was doing and what he wanted. Zayden made sure to be vocal about everything he felt inclined to learn and be involved in, like volunteering or being a crazy daredevil. He became a doer/hustler/fireball, just like his old man. Not for the sake of his college resume, but simply because he wanted to 'get good' at LIVING. He wanted to constantly grow. He refused to stay still. As time went on, he realized his love was for all things recreational. He loved the outdoors, he loved to travel and explore, and he loved being... active. It wasn't until he decided what college he wanted to go to, in his junior year, which was influenced by Andrea Banks, who's like a younger sister to him, that he knew EXACTLY what he wanted to do. Around the same time, his dad got involved with a french woman named Alaina Casimir, whose now his stepmom and the mother to his youngest brother, Phoenix.

Fast forward, to the first day of college: Rachel came into his life like a wrecking ball and fuck, was that addicting. Somehow that led to a slippery slope of him balancing his double major in Therapeutic Recreation (BS) and Outdoor Recreation Emphasis (BS), being a frat boy, and catering to Rachel Ashford's every desire! What did he gain from adoring her?! Her undying friendship. He hoped, at least. It's obvious he wouldn't deny her invite. He has never missed any of her parties. 

What a good friend. [/indent]

[list][*] Partakes in many recreational activities, like backpacking, parkour/freerunning, skateboarding, climbing, horseriding, fishing, & etc.  
[*] His father, [url=https://media.giphy.com/media/5P9CBzFLelDKE/giphy.gif]Rhett[/url], came from nothing and is now a big time voice actor. Most of Zayden's hobbies are because of his old man. Without him, where would he be? Women, aside from his aunts, came and went, came and went. His dad has been there for him through thick and thin. Taught him to appreciate life! Then again, Zayden also picked up traits from the lovely, consistent ladies in his father's life, like being petty. 
[*] Occasionally uses money as a term of endearment - not as much as his dad, though. Example: That party was fucking MONEY dude! 
[*] Loves pizza, dark humor, & punching shit, thanks to one of his dad's best friends [s]and first love[/s], whose basically Zayden's aunt (though not by blood), [url=https://24.media.tumblr.com/c18c640e3233da859f46b931a2bc2928/tumblr_mrhsc2B4eH1s69ao0o1_500.gif]Soleil Castillo[/url] - a retired heavyweight boxing champion and co-owner of Asgard Fitness. 
[*] The other co-owner of Asgard Fitness is his father's childhood best friend, [url=https://i.gifer.com/NcTn.gif]Jackson Drake[/url], who is a retired MMA fighter. The one thing Zayden took from Jackson was: don't be a pussy. And, of course, having free fighting lessons too.
[*] Moves like Jagger thanks to his dance choreographer aunt, [url=https://media.giphy.com/media/H4yk4qQoamFTq/giphy.gif]Summer Snyder[/url], who owns INITIATE Center of Dance in LA. She's even given him an interest in poetry. Reading and listening to it! Not writing it. God no.  
[*] Helps his step mother, [url=https://data.whicdn.com/images/82200037/original.gif]Alaina[/url], at her therapeutic equestrian center, HorsePower. She has given Zayden comfort while in college for his father, since it took his old man that long to find her.
[*] Volunteers at the children hospital where his other aunt, [url=https://66.media.tumblr.com/3b14e5e99ee8340e73d2456485ccf495/tumblr_p1hnklQ4Gx1qmxl3ko4_400.gif]Miley Bennett[/url], works at, and she reminds him to be selfless and kind. [i]Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.[/i]  
[*] Eldest out of three, both brothers: [url=https://media.giphy.com/media/Kq2T3MVVB0I3C/giphy.gif]Ryland[/url] (20) and [url=https://media.giphy.com/media/l3V0m3n47cUYLJXFu/giphy.gif]Phoenix[/url] (4, half-brother). 
[*] Other interests: amusement parks/carnivals, rap, cartoons, food challenges, paintball, chocolate milk.
