[/font][/color][/center][/font]
full name, Jakob Coal Dare (Jake, Coal)
age, 21
birthdate, April 1st
gender, Male
personality,
Jake is arrogant. Plain and simple. He believes he's better than almost everyone else, except for the 'hot' girls. He typically doesn't get along with guys, always feeling threatened by them, though if you say that, he'll deny it. Saying that he has no reason to feel threatened. The majority of his friends are girls, and he likes it that way. Generally flirting with them, even if he really isn't interested in them that way. It's just the way he works. Along with being arrogant, he's egotistical, usually getting him into heaps of trouble. Being cocky also comes quite naturally for him. Overall, he's a typical type of jock and player. He'll date girls just because of their looks, and drop them without a second thought. He doesn't care if he breaks someone's heart. And isn't likely to. On occasion he will start dating one of his ex's again, but it never lasts. He always ends up dumping them. Or even cheating on them, and then dumping them. Guilt isn't an issue with Jake.
Jake is very rich, or rather his family his. But his parents give him loads of money, and he uses it whenever he feels like it. He's rather wasteful with his money, throwing it into stuff that isn't worth it, or that he just doesn't need. He absolutely hates responsibility, and loves having to do any kind of physical labor. It just isn't his thing. The only kind of 'work' he ever does, is working out. To keep his body in shape. He is a bit obsessive over his looks, just because of his ego, he can't handle to look bad. The problem is, girls tend to tell him how cute or handsome he is. And he firmly believes he's good looking now. Which only means that he flirts even more. For Jake, the fun is in the chase, and after you've got the girl. But he grows bored quickly, and ends up not staying with them for more than two weeks or so.
A major problem with his ego and his pride, he hates being ordered around, and forced to do things he doesn't want to do. Basically, he has a problem with authority. So he most likely wouldn't be able to keep a job even if he wanted one. This problem has gotten him expelled from schools before.
Jake isn't so bad if you get close enough to actually know the real him. He's actually quite romantic, and likes seeing the girl he's dating happy. He won't ever say 'I love you" unless he really means it. He can be kind and helpful, but he covers that all with his mask. The mask is up so often, that his true personality is slowly starting to fade. Getting to know the real him, is almost impossible Generally, he pushes people away when he feels they are getting to close to him.

history,[/size][/font]
He was born on April 1st, which in effect got him a lot of teasing as he grew older. When he was younger he was the nerd, he had glasses, braces, and long-ish hair. On top of all that, he was always studying, and making good grades. His mother, at an early age, got him to go to riding lessons. Which he took to very easily. Being a horseman, just earned him even more teasing and cruel jokes. The guys, mainly the jocks, told him that horse riding was a girls sport. Which angered him to no end. He was the geek and the outcast all the way until 8th grade. His parents started having problems when he hit 13, and it really threw his world for a loop.
He got angry at the whole situation, and starting causing trouble in school. He stopped studying, and he started hanging out with the wrong people. A the age of 15, his parents started to really notice. Mainly because they had finally solved the problems in their marriage. They were worrying about him and started sending him away to boarding schools, which just caused him to act out even more. At the age of 16 he was labeled as a rebel of sorts, by the people in school. He no longer had braces and he wore contact lenses, he ended up even cutting his hair. Halfway through his 16th year, his parents brought him back to his home. They tried to figure out what the problem was, but nothing seemed to work. So, they merely enrolled him into another school. Hoping for the best.
He took to that school, becoming the typical head jock, and the big man on campus, so to speak. It was the stereo-typical thing, every girl wanted to date him, and every guy wanted to be him. Which only furthered his bad boy, player attitude. His parents were still depressed by his actions, but they couldn't seem to help him. All through this time, he continued to spend countless time with horses, finding them his only outlet. At 19, In a last desperate attempt, they sent him to Nevada. Hoping the change of scenery would do him some good. He wanted to know what in the world they were thinking. Believing that a change in where he was would do anything... They had already tried boarding schools, how would this be any different?
