Here is a complete description of him:

Aaron D. Childs is the personification of One World Trade Center—or, more precisely, its human form and a distinct biological species (that’s a slightly different story, one I’ll cover separately regarding my universe). He stands 7'1" (215 cm) tall. Date of “birth”: 11/03/2014; physical age: 11 (almost 12) years old; mental (human, i.e., how he appears): 20–21 years old. His canonical zodiac sign is Scorpio.

Appearance: Aaron has dark, cool-toned skin, silver-blue hair styled in an undercut with a quiff on top, and blue-gray eyes.

In his classic outfit, he wears a light blue shirt, a dark blue tie, a blue jacket, light blue pants, and white shoes with gray soles. The shirt, tie, jacket, and pants are framed by a refraction and shimmer effect to evoke the glass facade of the skyscraper itself. Also, on the back of his jacket, there is a white-outlined triangle that starts at his shoulders and tapers to a point beneath the hem of the jacket—this creates the effect of the skyscraper’s prism.

Personality: Aaron is kind and very loyal. He possesses qualities from both twins: the ability to joke and tease well—from Sid—and to discuss serious topics and be a bit strict—from Norm. The main thing that sets him apart from the twins in terms of personality is his modesty. Aaron doesn’t like to talk much about himself, despite being the tallest skyscraper in the Western Hemisphere and standing at a symbolic height of 1,776 feet. He’s always ready to listen and offer support; even when he’s very busy, he always puts others’ interests before his own. Sometimes, Aaron can be a little absent-minded because he’s in a hurry.

Facts!

1. The main fact about him is that he has a fear of heights, which he’s very ashamed of, since no other skyscraper in the world besides him is afraid of heights, so he’s afraid to talk about it in public. He deeply regrets that as a child he asked for an apartment on the 100th floor of his own skyscraper.

2. Aaron has a very strong platonic bond with Liberty (the Statue of Liberty). She looked out for him, and now it’s his turn to take proper care of her—and most importantly, not to lose sight of her or lose her forever.

3. Aaron has a great passion for photography. He knows well how to compose a good shot and choose the right brightness and contrast for a great photo. The only thing he lacks is a high-quality camera at his disposal.

4. Aaron has a habit of stroking his head, especially smoothing down his ahoge; it somehow calms his fear of heights when he’s working with the curtains open.

5. There’s one more habit, but it’s a minor one—Aaron loves a late-night snack. If he can’t sleep, he immediately goes to the kitchen and makes himself a sandwich or drinks some milk.

6. Aaron has his own personal vehicle—a stylish blue sport motorcycle and a helmet featuring the logo of his skyscraper.

P. S. I think his headcanon voice is Ryan Reynolds 😩
