On the outside looking in, Kolby is a charming young man. He has a way with the ladies, and isn't scared to flirt. He is rather attentive, often leading to moments in conversations where people are shocked that he remembers small details from a story they told months ago. He's a regular everyday guy, doing his best to impress. He's extremely competitive - often erring on the side of aggressive -  and loves a challenge. Rather charismatic, when Kolby speaks, people tend to listen. 

Underneath his skin, Kolby is a troubled boy. He punches walls to release his frustrations. He drinks whiskey in order to laugh. He smokes cigarettes to stop his hands from shaking. He plays piano to calm his nerves. Sex is nothing but a way to release frustration. Kolby is fiercely loyal, and protects the ones he loves. Some may call the way he acts possessive. Despite all of this, Kolby is his biggest critic, and his worst downfall. 

Aside from that, he's a major fuckboy.

[color=4BB181][b]History/Bio:[/b][/color]
[list][*]Kolby was born and raised in Tanner, though his upbringing was a bit different from that of his peers. While the Hawthorne families name carried a proper weight in Tanner, Kolby's parents were a disgrace to the Hawthorne name. His mother was an addict, his father was physically and verbally abusive. They only ever used their magic to harm others, and to benefit themselves. Kolby didn't have much training in his formative years. He spent most of his time finding small spaces to hide in, or blending in with the shadows. The kids at school were mean; While Kolby didn't quite understand why his family was looked at differently, he knew from a very young age that he wasn't necessarily welcome in the Coven - he was there because of technicalities. When Kolby's mother died, his grandmother, Isabella stepped forward. She dragged her son-in-law through a six month court battle in which she won custody over Kolby. After the court case was over, Kolby never saw his father again. For the first time since he was born, Kolby finally had a good, calm influence. 
[*] Isabella did her best, but the morals and ways that Kolby's parents had taught him for the last ten years had already began to stick. While she could teach Kolby how to charm and dress like a proper gentleman, she Isabella Rossi never could tame her grandsons anger. For the next six years, Kolby went everywhere Isabella did. The Apothecary, the grocery store, Coven meetings, etc. She focused on training him to be a proper adult, and as good of a person as she could make him. Isabella found other witches and warlocks to train Kolby physically, while she studied more on book work. While Kolby has her to thank for everything, Isabella passed from old age when Kolby was seventeen years of age. Turning eighteen in just three months, Kolby spent the remainder of his 'child hood' living at the Coven House. 
[*] Kolby's high school life was hectic. At school he was known for being one of the biggest and baddest bullies around. While he didn't typically hang out with any particular crowd, Kolby's name was known around Tanner High School for a multitude of things: Drugs, sex, fights, suspensions and vandalism being the main ones. He spent more time partying under the bleachers than he did anything. 
[*] After high school, Kolby did his best to find more of his family, which landed him in New York. Shortly after arriving in the City of Dreams, Kolby learned that he didn't really have any family to find. He worked odd jobs on the side while soaking up the culture of the city until eventually landing himself a gig as a tattoo artist. He is returning to Tanner in hopes of a fresh start, and with the dream that people won't treat him like the kid he used to be. The question is, however, has Kolby earned his redemption? [/list]
