Personality>>
x.X. Anxious
Keilen has been diagnosed with social anxiety, which has begun to hinder the way he lives. Despite being only sixteen years old, he has started to fear judgement for everything he does, and often times leaves himself out of important life experiences to avoid the feeling. Subconsciously, he surrounded himself with people who he has a sense of superiority over. This was to help his self esteem, and so that he felt like they were less likely to judge him.
Due to his anxiety, Keilen comes off as extremely fidgety. He is hardly ever sitting, or standing still. Cracking his bones has become one of his worst vices, but there are many that follow. Neck, toes, elbow, back, and fingers are his target areas, but every now and then he falls into the habit of cracking his jaw. Keilen will often tap his feet, bite his nails, and drum his fingers on anything he can touch. A bloody lip is quite common with him because, if his hands are occupied, he bites his lips in a way which tears the skin.
...
Although anxiety plays a big role in his life when provoked, it does not control his life, allowing him to let loose and have fun like a normal teenage guy. Keilen tries to spend as much time with his friends as possible. He tries to stay pretty updated on the latest trends, but doesn't allow himself to get involved in social media. He tries his best to be cheerful and optimistic when meeting new people, so he leaves a good impression and it helps remind him to keep a positive outlook.
x.X. Intelligent
He is smart enough to hold his own as top of his class, but often lacks the motivation needed to accomplish such a feat. Without a passion, Keilen has a hard time putting effort into classes, or a task. When he does find his passion though, such as history or animals, his intelligence truly shines. At a young age, Keilen was very good at school, which created his high expectations for himself.

Keilen suffers from minor depressive disorder, which came from his social anxiety.
It’s the way I’m feeling I just can’t deny
Appearance>>
Keilen is very cautious about his appearance and tends to go with the flow in terms of fashion. Generally, in the warmer weather, he wears khaki shorts and a tee, and in the winter, chinos with similar tee shirts. His barn attire is completely casual. Tee shirts and jeans with a pair of boots is all he needs to fulfill his daily chores.
He keeps his dark brown hair in a short quiff, slightly longer in the front, short nearly everywhere else. Unlike his hair, Keilen has light blue eyes with a very thin line of green around the edge which can only be seen with an extreme closeup.
Being built like a linebacker has its advantages when riding horses. He is broad in the shoulders with a fair amount of muscle to support them. He is fairly tall, standing at 6'1" but any hopes of getting taller have completely shot out the door.

Full History>>
Born to a small Wisconsin family, Keilen had the disadvantage of being the youngest. His parents had kids in different intervals of their lives. Of the three, the age difference between the eldest and youngest is fifteen years. Being the youngest meant that he was babied, but there was no way he would he able to get away with anything. After the first two children, Keilen's parents had seen nearly everything he could throw at them.
When he was younger, Keilen's parents pushed him to keep his grades up in school, which he did with ease. As he got older, his parents continued asking this, which was found harder and harder to fulfill. His grades continued to drop, and the fighting with his parents began to grow. Soon, his stress levels began to skyrocket, and he began to fear coming home.
He would spend hours in his room, never talking to his parents, avoiding them at all costs. If any of his friends asked him how he was doing, he'd lie, say he's fine and change the topic. His anxiety grew, as he became slightly paranoid. Whenever he heard whispering, he immediately came to the conclusion that it was about him. This attributed to why his parents thought he was depressed.
Once they came to the conclusion that their son was depressed, Keilen's parents sent him to the BSU to try and fix the problem. He spent nearly a week there before he was put on a depression medication. After several months on that, they moved him from depression medication to anxiety medication and he has been on that particular medication since.
Not long after he turned sixteen years old, Keilen's parents filled for divorce. After choosing to stay with his father, they moved out to Kentucky to start over.
We found love in a hopeless place
