He would often in his spare time help out, among volunteer organizations or around school. He is respectful to his teachers and peers, showing a more caring and compassionate person. He often used to help those out without any hesitation. That was, until bullies took advantage of him when he was young. They would take advantage of his good nature.

Though quiet, he takes interest in others and their well being. However, he had made pains to hide it in fear of others to take advantage of him or treat him poorly for his past naivety.

He reveals to be smart as well as clever. His desire to be stronger also takes an interest to martial arts as well, to stand up for himself and others.

The Background

History:
Growing up in the western countries, he had lived with both his parents and had attended school as any other student. While he had excelled in his studies, he was a bit lacking in the skills to make friends. He had a few, but he was often overwhelmed by the bad side of his peers. He was often teased by classmates who found him easy to pick on and manipulate. He never understood their cruelty or animosity to himself or other. He would often speak out against them, but it only caused their cruelty to continue. Even resulting in physical violence.

He became more enclosed and less social, drawing inward. He participated less in class and became more guarded. Though he had a sense to help others and be friendly, his naivety made him an easy target for bullies. When he did stand up for himself, it ended poorly as it fell on him in fault. After a great conflict, he moved to the new school closer to Europe where family was in hope to have a new start.

Though having a cool and calm demeanor, inside he suffers between his desire to reach out and connect to others or protect himself from those who would take advantage of him. His hope in others is often tested but as he proceeds on this new chapter in his life, he will understand the value to have hope in others.

Note: First time posting this up so some guidance would be appreciated for strengths and weakness.
