Personality>>
Ezra is a vicious, malicious, and ruthless. They're his good qualities, or so he informs everyone. Ezra is all about the payback, you wrong him - he'll wrong you right back. You still won't be even, you never will be again, but he will be satisfied. He'll be your best friend for a while, lulling a person into a false sense of security, and then take everything he may have learned about you and throw it right back in your face.
He's a gossip, has a great way of getting a person to open up. He uses it as if it's currency. A wonderful way to take control of any situation. It also helps that he's very, very easy on the eye. Though he is gay, he's not shy in using his looks to influence girls and boys alike.
Ezra can be very cold. He's extremely good at closing off all emotions and not letting his true feelings show. He's mastered this over the years. He loves this quality about himself. He's able to detach himself from any situation, become impartial and uninvolved. He's just so good at making is seem like he doesn't care.
Ezra's qualities, which he sees as negative, are that he's often too loyal to those that he that he truly loves. It's only when they are being attacked in any way does he throw caution to the wind and act irrationality. He hates it afterwards, he always wants to be seen as the perfect picture of control.
He also despises that he does actually get hurt sometimes. He is human, after all. There's only so much hate he can take for his 'choice' of sexuality - as his parents say. It gets to him, now and again. And he errupts, again in that uncontrolled, uncensored way that he hates. Sometimes he thinks maybe it would just be easier to be a robot. Then he could be the arsehole he wanted to be constantly without any hindrance of human emotion.

He attempted to take his life when his siblings decided to cut ties with his family and left him alone with his parents. He took medication of his mother's - He didn't know that was actually what he was trying to do until he was released from hospital. This was only a month ago - He's been sent to Blue Ridge to 'recover and heal'.
Appearance>> Ezra is undeniably handsome. He's tall, just over 5'10. He's very physically fit, his body is very well muscled and Ezra religiously takes care of himself. He has dark, brooding hazel eyes, dark brunette hair that may either be neatly styled or left haphazardly depending on what he's doing. His full, plump lips are usually curled into a condescending smirk, often framed by neatly kept facial hair that never seems to go through that awkward faze most males get. Ezra also knows how to dress himself, in the finest clothing suitable for what activity he may be involved in. He takes care of himself, he's not ashamed to admit that.
Markings>> Three thick pink scratch marks on the inner side of his left lower arm from a cat he and his brother tried to rescue when they were younger. The cuts had needed stitches and have always remained a bright pink. Stemmed his dislike of cats.
Scarring on his right side from a bonfire gone wrong as an 8 year old. Had some 3rd degree burns that needed skin grafts.
Luckily the areas were small enough that they didn't effect life for him too much. Did cause his fear of fire.
Medical History>>
Stitches for the cat scratch
Treatment for the burns
Has had chickenpox and had his tonsils removed
Had an appendicitis at 10 and had his appendix removed
Recently hospitalized for overdose for two weeks.
Full History>>
Ezra was born into a wealthy, privileged family. His family owns CLARINGTON TOYS - a prosperous business providing the world with wonderful toys for all ages. Ezra has known nothing but the fabulous, 'easy' lifestyle of the rich and powerful. Since the day he was born, he has had to be the poster child. As did his three siblings before him - two sisters and a brother, the oldest. Ezra, however, had been a mistake. His three siblings had been born via surrogates. His mother had important duties to attend to. She had no time to carry babies. Besides, she hadn't wanted to ruin her figure. His parents had been done with children, the youngest of the three was already 13 when Ezra, the 'miracle child', was conceived. His parents had slipped up. They had accidentally gotten pregnant. But the world could not know that, so Ezra was spun as their miracle baby. His mother was 41 when he was born,
His father 53. Too old to be parents, they knew, but false pretenses had to be kept up. Ezra was born, already resented.
While he did have the perks of being privileged, Ezra knew he was a bother to his parents. He had a Nanny, barely saw his parents unless there was a photo opportunity or a press release or what not. As soon as he was old enough, he was sent away to boarding school in New York, across the country from his Californian 'family home'. His siblings were in their last year of high school and in college, he barely saw them. When he did, they treated him like royalty, but the visits were so few and far between. His siblings did not like being home. He understood why completely. They were neglected, not physically, those needs were met easily, but emotionally. Ezra, perhaps, most of all.
It was away at boarding school that Ezra came into his own. He was a polite child, but his upbringing meant that it was difficult for him to get close to anyone. He put up wall after wall to protect himself. Nobody would hurt him like his parents did. He became cold. By the age of 10, he was notorious. Ezra had the other students, older and younger, wrapped around his little finger. He was in charge. He was powerful. He dictated his life, not his parents, while at school. It became a safe haven.
Throughout his childhood, Ezra's parents made sure he participated in extra curricular after extra curricular. "It'll look good on your college application." His father would grunt on the rare times he acknowledged Ezra's existence. Ezra would sigh and sign up for something else. Football. Soccer. Swimming. Dance. Volleyball. Track. Basketball. Diving. Polo - water and horseback. Two activities would stick, however. Horse rising, something that brought Ezra nothing but joy. He did well enough that his parents actively encouraged it by buying him new horses as praise. Show jumping was his forte, but he dabbled in anything on horse back. He had an equine for every event. And he worked every single one of them as much as he could.
His other activity that stayed was gymnastics. He thrived in the overly competitive atmosphere of the sport, he did well. Extremely well. But he was forced to stop last year. A vicious fight in the family erupted, Ezra had done well enough in a competition for it to reach his parents social circles. A child from another family had seen him at the competition with another boy, from another team, partaking in some unsavoury activities. Rumours began to swirl of the Claringtion's faggot son. His father had snapped. It was demanded that he give up the disgusting sport and 'unchristian' activities or he would be cut off. They had a reputation to uphold! Ezra quit the next day, no explanation.
At 13, Ezra was sure he was gay. He'd informed his siblings. All three were supportive, but they warned him not to inform his parents. He listened, at first. For a year, he remained silent. He experimented at school, was open about himself there. But as soon he was home for holidays, that side of him shut down. Shortly after his 14th birthday, he couldn't take it any longer. He needed to tell his parents. So he did, over supper one summer evening. A rare supper where the whole family was present. Every piece of silverware hit the table at once when he revealed his sexuality. His siblings out of shock that Ezra had the balls to do so, his parents out of anger. They informed him, after a lengthy yelling match, that he was to get over the phase and never let it interfere with the family and it's priorities. Sit down, shut up and hide it. Ezra did as he was told.
Now we get to why Ezra has suddenly transferred to Blue Ridge. His siblings had called a meeting 6 weeks ago.
Ezra was curious, they did not give him any hints as to what was about to occur. They met in father's study to inform their parents that they were cutting all ties from the family. Ezra deflated at that moment. It was a blur. Yelling, screaming, spiteful words. Ezra just felt numb. Eventually his siblings left, all three taking turns saying goodbye to him which he couldn't remember even if he tried. He left the study in a fog, heading straight to the bathroom.
The next thing he remembered was waking up in a hospital bed, his stomach having been pumped. He'd overdosed. They kept asking him about death. He was confused. His parents didn't visit him over the two weeks he was in hospital. Nobody did. It was only when he was released, back in his parents house, did he realise what had happened. Again, he was numb. His parents left him alone for another month before informing him he was being transferred to a school in Kentucky. A horse was being sent there and he had to shut up, stay out of trouble and keep a low profile. If he did that, he'd get the company once he was done college. Ezra simply nodded, packed his things and left. Will he do what is asked of him, here at Blue Ridge Academy? Let's find out.
