Family Parent one: marcus pierce -- drug store manager Relationship with them: kody and his dad are best buds! if it werenāt for his fathers love for rollercoasters, kody doesnāt know what his life would be like today. they used to play rollercoaster tycoon growing up and kody still cherishes those memories today.

Habits Hobbies: playing rollercoaster tycoon / designing rollercoasters on his computer. obsessively watching ghost club paranormal on youtube. bothering aj with the latest thing on his mind that she definitely doesnāt need to know about Plays a musical instrument?: nope. wishes he could though!Ā Plays a sport?: nope, but would be great at track now that heās a vampire! How he would spend a rainy day: playing kingdom hearts II in his pajamas. Spending habits: great at hoarding all of his allowance! since heās not spending it on food, heās an excellent saver. pre-vampirism kody was not as cautious with his spending.Ā Smoking/drinking/drugs?: no wayĀ š š¼ has yet to even try alcohol Extremely skilled at: cheering up his friends! finding the good in others and convincing them to see it tooĀ š¤ Extremely unskilled at: stopping himself from crying when heās sad / when heās in the middle of crying. putting together pieces of their investigations. sure, he can find things -- but what the hell is he supposed to do with them once heās got it?!?!

Traits Optimist or pessimist? Introvert or extrovert? Daredevil or cautious? Logical or emotional? Leader or follower? Disorderly and messy or methodical and neat? Prefers working or relaxing? Confident or unsure of himself/herself? Animal lover? HELL YEAH.
Self-perception How do they feels about themselves?: before the year 2020, kody actually quite liked himself! he realized that he was goofy and sometimes not everyones cup of tea, but for the most part, he knew he was a good guy who was a little obnoxious! now, he has mixed feelings about himself. vampirism has elevated a lot of his emotions and more often than not now, he dislikes himself for what heās become, or what he could become if things turn bloody.Ā One word the character would use to describe themselves: spunky What does the character consider their best trait?: his compassion What does the character consider their worst trait?: his gullibilityĀ What does the character consider their best physical characteristic?: his fluffy hair !! What does the character consider their worst physical characteristic?: that heās a short king. stream short kings anthem by tiny meat gang How does the character think others perceive them?: heās pretty sure most people think that heās wildly annoying, but that doesnāt stop him from being fully himself most of the time!Ā What would the character most like to change about himself/herself: his vampirism!! get this shit out of him just make him a normal aging boy again!!
Relationships with others Opinion of other people in general: kody is a big oleā ball of love, and thus so, he tries to share that with everyone. strangers are treated with compassion, acquaintances are treated as old friends, and friends are treated like family. unless kody already knows someone to be a bad person, or is wary of them, heās genuinely one of the nicest people one could ever meet. Opinion of the Scooby Gang:Ā talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, shit on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it. Does the character hide their true opinions and emotions from others?: it depends on the topic, but for the most part, yes. when it comes to most scooby gang related endeavors, kody will share his thoughts -- if itās something related to movies or tv, heāll be talking your ear off for hours. if itās something that could result in it hurting someone else, heāll be quiet, and if his vampirism was ever to come into question, heād be absolutely be suppressing it.Ā Most important person in characterās life: oh god, not to pick scooby gang favorites, but probably aj. sheās the closest thing he has to a sister, and he doesnāt know what he would do without their banter, and her support. Best friend/s: aj darke, dylan frye, & arabella byrne Dating experience: absolutely none. kissed 2 girls in the span of 2 years over 3 years ago. Romancing: kody wouldnāt know the first thing about trying to get someone to date him. all he knows is the stuff heās seen on tv, watched in movies, or experienced around him ( such as his parents successful marriage, or his friends dating people ), but if it were to come down to him, heād be extremely awkward. picture tom hollandās spiderman trying to talk to zendayaās mj in far from home -- because thatās extremely accurate. kody isnāt trying to date anyone right now for a couple of reasons: one being that heās too nervous, and not exactly looking for love, but if it were to happen... he wouldnāt run from it necessarily. but two being that his vampirism creates a bit of a problem for him, and heās not sure if he should subject anyone to the curse heās stuck with.
Extra Physicality: if necessary, could probably lift a car and throw it down the street. as of right now, doesnāt know how strong he really is / is more concerned about hurting his friends with this supposed strength than he is finding out how many hundreds of pounds he could lift. kody in a fight? probably losing within the first five seconds, unless bloods drawn and the instinct to pounce takes over. Species: vampire How do they feel about it?: hates it. would do anything to reverse it. wishes he had just stayed a little longer at karma cafe that night. or had never gone at all. How do they look in their supernatural form?: pretty much the same, however when heās hungry and near blood, his eyes go all dark and bloodshot, and the veins around his eyes start to pulse ( basically just like vampire diaries ), but kody is unaware of this since heās never seen it happen to himself or another vampire
