Personality: After the abuse at home became constant, he stopped trusting people and stopped showing his emotions. Now he is taciturn and unfriendly, always on guard around others, and is even uncomfortable with people worrying about him or being kind to him. He accepts being hurt as a matter of course, and is convinced that "someone like me isn't worth being cared about," so he is unable to ask for help. He doesn't go to school and avoids interacting with people, spending his time alone. However, deep down, he is very lonely and harbors a desire for someone to need him.
Childhood: As a young child, he was a bright and sociable boy who could quickly become friends with anyone.
Present: He suffers daily physical and verbal abuse from his parents. He dislikes being at home and often spends time out late into the night. He rarely goes to school and is seen by those around him as a "troubled truant."
