Strengths:
+ Intellect: Adrian would certainly place himself among the smartest students at Pembroke. He is both logical and cunning, and can use his intellect to get out of various situations. He is good with plots as well as manipulating others.
+ Fitness: What he might lack in brute strength, he makes up for with speed and agility. He is very good at outmaneuvering others and this is why he is one of the star tennis players.
+ Level Headed: Adrian is calm and collected almost all the time. He is unphazed (at least superficially) by most jibes and insults, and it helps him work through tense situations. It is amplified by the sense of self-confidence supplied by his arrogance.
+ Willpower: Adrian's sheer determination and drive are the fundamental principles behind most of his skills. If he wants something, he focuses and he gets it.
Weaknesses:
- Arrogance: Adrian's arrogance provides confidence which can be good, but it usually goes too far. It can piss people off, and sets him up for huge falls on the occasions where he is wrong.
- Fighting: Adrian's a thinker, not a fighter. While his intellect usually lets him avoid the situation, it obviously can happen. He's good at dodging punches, but not throwing them. It's just not something he excels at or cares for.
- People-skills: While exceptionally loyal to the friends he does have, the fact is that his attitude pushes a lot of people away. He's not a loner nor does he have trouble fitting in where he wants to, he just has trouble making stable relationships, particularly with the opposite sex.
- Defiance: Adrian absolutely refuses to do anything he's told as he puts himself above most other people. While not necessarily bad, it can lead to reckless and self-destructive decisions
- Obsessive: When Adrian wants something, he must have it at all costs. Sometimes he sets the bar too high and places unreasonable pressures upon himself. He can usually retain his cool facade when obsessing, but one can only take so much before they crack.
Habit(s): Adrian will correct others' mistakes and errors, much to their dismay
Pet Peeve(s): Being treated as beneath someone, whether intellectually or physically. He strives to prove such people wrong and rub it in their face.
Fears: Adrian ultimately fears failure and that everything he does will be worthless. He also hates the feeling of being trapped.
Personality:
Adrian is cool and calm and can pretty much fit in wherever he wants. This is because he doesn't worry about what others think about him - 99% of them are worthless anyway. This is also why he doesn't really fit into any of the cliques. He holds his intelligence in high esteem, and isn't hesitant to flaunt it on those who annoy him. He does exactly as he pleases regardless of rules or lectures. He thinks he's smart enough to get out of any trouble anyway. He's bad with relationships. Friends are hard to make and women are just tools to be used, none that he's met good enough or worthy enough to be anything more than that. The friends that he does have, he keeps, and tries to lessen his arrogance around them. So long as he receives respect, he'll give it. He can obsess on things, particularly his studies, to the point of breaking. Despite his faults, he has a fairly rounded personality.
History:
Adrian's childhood is filled with neglect. His parents were rich and always off doing some lavish thing or another, leaving a nanny that really couldn't give a damn to watch after him and his siblings. Couple that with being the middle of three children, and the situation worsens. His younger brother was spoiled beyond belief, and his older brother always did everything first and set the example. It was at this point where Adrian began his drive to standout. When his elder brother almost dropped out of highschool because of a drug addiction, Adrian saw a role to fill. He devoted himself to his studies, quickly obtaining as much knowledge as he could. To top it off, he had his parents send him off to the Pembroke academy.
His freshmen year he got top marks and even took up tennis to prove himself to his parents. If he was expecting some sort of recognition, he was dead wrong. The most he got from them was a "Thats nice...", and it crushed him. That's when he realized how worthless his parents and everyone else was to him. If he couldn't prove himself to them, he'd prove himself to the world. This is how he derived the bulk of the current attitude that lasted throughout the years. Now he's a senior, and things remain as high as he set them. He's at the top of his class and one of the best tennis players on the team. He's not above partying however. While he refuses drugs of just about any kind, he does drink. He intends to make the most of his final year at Pembroke so he can continue onward.
