JAYDEN BARCLAY. 28 YEARS OLD / NOVEMBER 5TH, 1993. WEREWOLF. GYM COACH. BISEXUAL. YOUNGER BROTHER OF JULIAN ; OLDER BROTHER OF JUNE, JACOB & JEMMA.
+ RESOURCEFUL, INDEPENDENT, PROTECTIVE, AUDACIOUS, PLAYFUL, AMBITIOUS. - DEFIANT, DOGMATIC, SHORT-TEMPERED, BLUNT, INCONSIDERATE, ARROGANT.
the second oldest barclay and the kid who refused to play peacemaker for his parents. in fact, he would make sure family dinner was even more chaotic and awkward than usual. it started off from a good place - jayden wanted to challenge them. to sort out the problem, instead of brushing everything off when he could see the tension between his parents. get it together or get a divorce. he did, however, end up taking up a more antagonistic role in the family, at least in his parentsโ eyes. eventually, jayden wouldnโt mind it anymore. *insert a dramatic make me your villain speech*
tons of mommy and daddy issues as a result. once you get to know him, youโll see how bad it is. he doesnโt easily open up to people, though.
was quite popular in his high school days. smart, straight As with very little effort, good social life, threw and attended some of the best parties, dated around a lot. he got sick of it though. his teachers spoke of ivy league, scholarships, competitions.. he didnโt want it. he didnโt want all this pressure. he hated everybodyโs high expectations of him.
but the breaking point really was the night his partner lost their life and jayden triggered the werewolf curse. tw death one of the parties got busted by the cops. jayden and his partner, both very very intoxicated thought itโd be a good idea to hop on jaydenโs motorcycle and escape before they got in trouble. a car came out of nowhere, he made the wrong turn. jayden was in a bad condition, but he made it out. unfortunately, his partner didnโt. end of tw
he never really spoke to anyone about how it affected him. he didnโt cry at the funeral. he didnโt cry at home. itโs as if he avoided the grief process. jayden started getting bad grades on purpose. heโd never been on his best behaviour, but his teachers tolerated it because of his sharp mind and good grades; now though, they had less and less reasons to do so. he dropped his kickboxing and wrestling classes & he had the potential to make it international.
why, theyโd ask him. because i can, jayden thought. it was his reasoning for a lot of the shit he did, which obviously put him in a bad spot. he got nearly expelled and held back a grade on multiple occassions.
heโd self sabotage a lot, try to ruin friendships and relationships on purpose. a month after the accident, their graduation happened and although college was still an option, jayden didnโt go.
his reckless behaviour worried the pack. finally having come to terms with being a werewolf and embracing his powers, jayden did befriend a lot of other creatures he wasnโt supposed to be all buddy buddy with. though mostly, he needed the connections and the benefits it would bring him.
heโs still quite distrustful and will keep a close eye on people he doesnโt know well, even people involved with his siblings. heโs very protective in a lowkey way, without being overbearing.
seems controlled most of the time, but thatโs far from the truth. jayden internalizes everything until it becomes too much and he blows up. can be very impulsive and reckless.
stubborn af, itโs his way or the highway. very very rarely will admit heโs wrong, but miracles do happen.
still keeps up the facade he doesnโt give a shit about anything and is all about having fun, doing whatever he wants, living his life the way he wants to, but he cares. and he gives many shits. donโt make him admit that!!
huge metal and rock fan if u couldnโt tell by the leather jacket and the led zeppelin tattoo. heโs got lots of tattoos, though the most special one to him is his dead partnerโs name.
fun to hang out with if youโre down to do something stupid or hit up every bar in the city, but can definitely be hard to get along with or like bc of his strong personality and foot in mouth syndrome. will say anything that comes to his mind, no matter how hurtful it can be sometimes.
he is definitely more responsible now and tries not to repeat old mistakes due to recklessness, but old habits die hard.
