[sub][color=EEBC1D][b]Personality:[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent]For a lack of better word, Noah is curt bordering on dismissive. Like he never has time to actually show you his personality (which he doesn't as he usually runs from job to job.)

Quick and to the point, he never really minces words or dances around topics. He'll tell you straight up what's kicking in his head if you ask. Not that you'd get much, most of what's in the forefront of his mind is providing for his siblings. He's been parentified since he was 14. It's only gotten worse ever since his parents abandoned him and his siblings.

He's quick on the uptake on learning things. Hardworking and stubborn as he's had no choice to be anything else unless he wanted his siblings to starve. He is also careful not to injure himself, being slow and methodical and taking safety as a priority as he is the sole provider for his siblings.

He is also practical and a realist, making him hardheaded with a slightly quick temper. He feels like life has passed him by and will continue to do so. Despite this he has a soft spot for both his siblings and is extremely overprotective of them. He could never shout or get angry at them. He believes his parents' abandonment was not their fault and they are innocent from everything happening.

[sub][color=EEBC1D][b]History:[/b][/color][/sub]
[list][*] Born as Noah Pierce Tanner, life wasn't easy for the boy. His parents were a step away from destitute, but both worked and made ends meet. His father always was one 'gamble' away from striking it rich. His mother never really dissuade him, instead finding more solace at the end of the bottle. It wasn't the best of childhoods but atleast it was one.
[*] His father's gambling addiction grew worse over time, and so did his mother's alcoholism. A few romps here and there and his brother, Elijah was born. This was the start of his parentification. He pretty much raised his brother when he was 13. His parents, luckily, still brought in money somehow. Soon his sister, Eden was born, and she too was foisted on him by his parents.
[*] When he turned 16, he suddenly woke up one day, his siblings crying for their parents... and his parents missing. Noah had a sinking feeling. He looked all over town and asked around but no one knew a thing. Soon he found a note that confirmed his suspicions. Noah, the angriest he's ever been, slammed his fist into a wall and broke through the plywall. He held both of his siblings tight and promised them that they'll grow up fine and live.
[*] It wasn't the easiest to find a job when he was 16. He jumped from job to job, doing odd things here and there to pull in any money. He really didn't have a stable job for the first year, in-between the odd-jobs and caring for his younger siblings at home, he had no time for... anything really. The first few years were the hardest, only getting by with the help of a neighbour and the odd jobs/chores here and there.
[*] It stabilized in the third year, where he managed to convince Cliff Jennings to give him a job despite being unqualified. Soon he would also find part-time work at Husker's Bar & Grill as a bartender. Both jobs barely getting him over the finish line in terms of money for the house, food, and an education for his siblings with a tiny amount of meager savings.
[*] He's been burnt out but he pushes these feelings down. Anything for his siblings. But recently he's been feeling like he's let life pass him by, he hasn't enjoyed his childhood since he was, well, a child. He feels guilty with these thoughts as he has two children dependent on him.

[sub][color=EEBC1D][b]Extra Facts // Headcannons:[/b][/color][/sub]
[list][*]Realistically, he believes it likely needs to happen for Pines Holler to survive. Anything for a better 'future' for his siblings. He's never really had too strong ties with the town despite living here his whole life, being too busy to work for his siblings. He mostly has bad memories with his parents and their eventual abandonment. Though he also understands the risks, there is a good chance he and his siblings get ran out of their homes.
[*]Loves Music- particularly rock, lo-fi, and the guilty pleasure of what he calls 'white-girl music'.
[*]Talented with the guitar, he stopped practicing as much when he turned 16 but he still plays well on his beaten-down guitar.
[*]Good at repairing and tinkering with things due to tight expenses.
[*]Noah's a great cook, good at whipping things up with minimum ingredients.
[*]Owns a rundown [url=https://i.imgur.com/DlAEACM.jpeg]Honda CX500[/url] that's he's modified into a cafe racer, initially sold to him by Cliff for very cheap. Used to travel between jobs quickly.
[*]Currently eyeing another rundown '98 Corolla to potentially fix up as a replacement.
