PB: Jude Law
[Appearance]
Cael stands at 5'11" tall and weighs in at around 145 pounds. He has blue eyes and dirty blonde-ish hair that looks darker in some lights. The style of dress he prefers changes depending upon the situation. Though he probably has more suits than the average Mayhill resident, it's a fairly rare occurrence to see him around town in one of them. Mostly he dresses in fitted t-shirts denim jeans. Cael carries himself with confidence and an air of pride, though certainly not arrogant. For 35 years old, he's probably more fit than one might expect. He takes a relative amount of pride in his appearance, and keeps in shape by working out often. The major contributing factor to his physique though, genuinely, is probably the fact that most days he simply forgets to eat more than one small meal in the evening.
[History]
Though not born or raised in Mayhill, Cael hails from a town of comparable size and moral value. When he left his hometown to attend college, he swore to himself that he would never go back to the same kind of place again. He had high aspirations of an overpriced flat in a city that would eat him alive. But your roots have a way of pulling you back down, and after graduating from university with a degree in linguistics, he found himself drawn to Mayhill. God knows why, but he needed the retreat. In a way it seemed like an oasis to him; a place where no one knew of him or his history. And the fact that his job allowed him to work from home meant that he had full reign to choose anywhere he pleased. So he chose the little town in Nebraska as his new home. God help him. God help them all.
But let's back up a little bit. What is this "history" from which he is trying to run? Well, when Cael was 16 years old, his 15-year-old girlfriend fell pregnant with his child. Though his entire family encouraged the young girl to abort, her family refused to allow for such. Eventually Cael and she made the decision that they would give their child up for private adoption. Nine months later, straight after delivery, they handed their son over to a couple whose last names they didn't even know, and went to court to relinquish all parental rights. At the time it seemed the appropriate thing to do, but it haunts Cael know to know that he has a son out there somewhere whom he may very well never meet.
[Personality]
Mostly sweet and soft-spoken, he really does have a heart of gold. Though he can be sarcastic at times, he's not one to have a biting sense of humor or self-importance. Really all Cael wants is for people to like him. They don't even have to respect him, genuinely. He doubles as a doormat most days, so feel free to stand atop him and wipe your feet all over him. He'll allow for it, as long as you're nice to his face. Cael's a fairly silly person as well. He's the type who makes faces at children in the supermarket and talks to animals as though they can understand every word that he says. Sometimes he gets a bit morose, but he's rarely ever angry.
[Personal Life]
As previously stated, he works from home. His contract with the government is mostly hush-hush, but what he can say is that he works in developing speech recognition software. If you ask him to expand on this, he's not going to tell you about how the military uses it for their aircrafts or the multitude of uses in security. He'll just point out that it's the kind of software that makes your car call home when you tell it to, "Call home," or the computer software create a word document based upon your voice.
He's not as much of a loner as the whole working-from-home thing would make you think, though. In the summer he coaches a little league baseball team, and most of the time he can be found at the local YMCA, working with children of varying ages in sports from soccer to basketball to kickball. He's really better with kids than he is with adults, but he tries his best. He's involved with the community and takes an active interest in its policies and procedures. Heck, he's even considered running for public office before. We'll see.
[Writing Sample]
Two days, the fumigation man had told him. It would be two days until it was safe for him to enter his home once more. In the meantime, Cael would have to take up residence elsewhere. At this point it really shouldn't have been as much of a trouble to find alternate housing as it was. But with nowhere else to go, he found himself at the Mayhill Bed and Breakfast. In his room, Cael sat in front of his laptop, trying in vain to get a working internet connection...
(Waaaah, come on. You know how I roleplay.)
