About
Murder TW
Caleb was adopted after being left on the steps of a church when he was a baby, but his adopted family was murdered when he was a young boy by his birth mother.
He was never book smart, but what he lacked in traditional intelligence, he made up for in street smarts, usually picking up on things fairly quickly. He's quite intuitive and usually knows when someone's trying to bullshit him.
Caleb was in and out of trouble with the law from the moment he hit his first group home, usually taking the fall for older comrades until he was old enough to be charged as an adult. Then he simply got better at not getting caught. Prison didn't teach him not to break the law, it simply taught him to break it better.
His knuckles are often bruised and have several healing scars from the fight club he runs in an old warehouse downtown. Even though he mainly runs the fights now, the only way for him to let off steam is to get in the ring himself and show the young guns how it's done. He's known for taking a punch and getting right back up for another, rarely backing down until he's bruised and bloody.
Despite working at the Outpost with his fellow SOS brother, Caleb rarely drinks unless he's hanging around the Sons HQ or with close friends. Alcohol lets his guard down, something he doesn't allow to happen often.
Caleb often has headphones in his ears, random music playing just to drown out silence and the slight tinnitus that had developed after a gun going off next to him when he was younger. Most of the time it takes a few tries to get his attention when he’s not purposely ignoring someone.
Social awkwardness is Caleb’s strong suit, and he doesn’t do well with small talk or friendly banter. He doesn’t understand most sarcasm and rarely steps into situations that don’t involve him, unless someone in his inner circle is involved, then all bets are off. He’ll throw a punch first and not bother to ask questions later, but it takes a lot to get him to that point.
His birth mother consistently tries to contact him from the hospital she’s housed in, but he throws every letter away without reading it. Nothing will ever bring his parents back, and there’s nothing she’ll be able to say to make him forget that.
Personality Traits
+ Loyal, Honest, Protective, Slow to anger
_ Prideful, Reckless, Unforgiving, Intolerant
Wanted Connections
SOS: From brothers to confidantes, Caleb's only real connections are within the Sons, and that's all he really needs.
Group Home Past: Despite cutting off most of the people from his past, there are a select few that he grew up with that he'd still drop everything for if needed.
Potential Brother/Sister: Given that Caleb doesn't know his father and has never spoken to his mother, there's definitely at least one sibling out there in the world that could pop up out of nowhere.
