boggart: that he'll live like this forever and push everyone away and end up dying alone.
patronus:
[/justify]his patronus is a grey wolf. it's based off the memory of his favourite nanny from his childhood, when she took him out to the beach without his parents permission, and they sat around eating ice cream, and playing frisbee and swimming in the sea. it was a rare nice day, and so the sun was shining, it was summer, and not too cold.
amortentia:
- a nice, light, summertime smelling perfume.
- spring flowers.
- the smell of the sea and the sand at the beach.
personality:
[/size][/blockquote][/justify]kaleb is sarcastic. there's no doubt about that, and if there's any possibility of a sarcastic come back to what you've said, expect it to come from him. he's quite a witty guy too, and can sometimes be good at making people laugh, depending on their sense of humour. if they like sarcasm though, he's your joker. he's also quite the flirt, and doesn't stop flirting with whoever walks in, regardless of whether or not, another victim of his flirtatious ways is in the room or not. he doesn't care about sticking with one girl and doesn't do relationships very well. although, it's not all about the girls, unless there is people around. kaleb is bisexual, and is only just working this out now, and it isn't something he's come to terms with yet. he's a little confused and sometimes lashes out at people because of this. he's got a temper, and that's undeniable. he's quite used to getting what he wants, and if he doesn't, he can get a little mad. he's a sore looser and relishes being right. he can curse worse than a sailor, as the saying goes, although he's never been on a boat in his life. he's good at flying, and likes taking his anger out on the pitch as a beater on the slytherin team.
he's sneaky, will do whatever it takes to get what he wants, and he hates it when people leave him. it is something that he's experienced in the past and that is why he's got so many barriers up. all he really wants though is for someone to come along who can make him happy. if he can manage to let the in enough. beating down his defences is hard, because if he thinks your getting anywhere close he is quick to avoid you, or change the subject, or make his excuses and leave. he uses sarcasm and witty retorts as a defence and hardly ever lets anyone see the real sweet, sensitive person that is hiding deep down. he can be sweet, honestly, it's just that, as a child, when he was sweet, all he got told was that he was being silly, that he'd get hurt and only have himself to blame, and then he did a couple of times, and each time, he hoped the next would be different, and it wasn't, and what resulted from this was a hardened boy with all these horrible defences up to keep himself from being hurt again.

How else could it be
Anyone would notice me?

mother and father:
- mother; adelaide maria garcia (nee williams), housewife, distant relationship, but better than the relationship with his father.
- father; michael james garcia, ministry of magic worker, kaleb hates his father, and for good reason.
siblings: none, kaleb is an only child.
others of importance: none.
history:adelaide met michael in her seventh year of hogwarts, officially. yes, they had been in the same house, but he had a bit of a reputation, and so she tried to stay away. however, there was something about him that she couldn't resist, and when she gave in to him, just before leaving hogwarts, what that resulted in changed the direction of both of their lives, and they would both grow older hating the other for it. she got pregnant, and he got mad. they got engaged, and he got distant. they got married and she got bigger. when the baby was born, michael wasn't the most attentive father figure. he was young, and so was adelaide, but their parents had insisted that marriage was the only way to go, and so they arranged it, leaving michael and adelaide almost marooned in that marriage. she wasn't going to protest as she didn't want to be a single mother and he wasn't going to go against his father and risk ripping apart their family, and so the deed was done. kaleb owen garcia was the only child of adelaide and michael, but it's not quite clear if he's the only child of michael himself.
after the marriage took place, michael saught affection elsewhere, in the beds of other women, and from that, it was possible that there were other children that he fathered that kaleb doesn't know about, and adelaide doesn't care to know about. kaleb grew up being raised by nannies, because his mother blamed him for getting her stuck in this loveless marriage, and his father blamed him for the very same reason. at least his parents had that in common. whenever a nanny got too close to kaleb, and he got too attached, his father would fire her and hire another. this broke kaleb's heart, but his father was trying to make sure that he didn't get too attached. his odd way of looking after his son, i suppose. it was always too late though, and so one after another, kaleb as a child, lost nanny after nanny that he cared about, and after each loss, his walls and defences got thicker. in the end, he learned his lesson and by the time he reached hogwarts, he wouldn't let anyone get close enough to hurt him if they left.
this went for girls as well. he's never had a steady girlfriend, although there were some that he could have seen himself sticking with, it would go against his policy of keeping well away from people, so that he wouldn't get hurt again. recently though, he's discovered that it's more than just girls who catch his attention, and he's not ready to accept that boys might appeal to him in that way too. he's not sure what to do, and knows that if his father ever finds out that his interests lie a little more elsewhere than women, he would surely be beaten up and kicked out, and as much as he hates his father, they have a twisted relationship where kaleb will do anything to get noticed by him. in trying to make his dad proud, and avoid everyone, he's become just like his father in his years at hogwarts, and spends almost every other night in a different bed, and in the morning, he's gone before they wake up.

roleplay sample:
Kaleb raised an eyebrow as he quoted more Shakespeare. ”Sorry, dude, that’s lost on me, I have no idea what that means!” He laughed a little, wondering what the two stars were meant to represent. He shifted a little closer to the guy, wondering who he was. He still hadn’t managed to place his face, and it was bugging him now. He tried to look properly at the guy without staring, but it was pretty hard to do. He’d introduce himself, but it would spoil his little game. No, Kale was quite content with guessing who this dude was, and he would find out, no matter what it took to do so.
”call me…Casanova, no wait, Romeo!” He said laughing at the comment, before continuing, extending his hand toward the guy. ”Kaleb, or Kale if you like, I don’t particularly care.” He said with a shrug. He answered to either of those names. He’d also taken to answering to certain insults recently, thanks to some girl who didn’t like it when he walked away the next morning. It was her fault for trusting him, or at least that was what he told himself. He looked sideways as the guy said he was hurt. ”Oh, wait, you, like, swing that way?” Kaleb asked awkwardly. He wasn’t prejudiced, it was just that his father disliked it, and in a way it had influenced him, although he didn’t tend to hold it against people. He just made the previous comments because he thought it was a bit odd that a straight guy was calling himself Juliet, and Kaleb Romeo.
Kaleb shrugged off the last comment, running his hand through his hair. The lack of women did make it hard to find someone to keep him company. helll maybe I should turn to the guys he joked silently, knowing that he wasn’t that type of guy. Although he had been curious as to whether kissing a guy would be any different to a chick. ”All the good girls learned long ago that I spell trouble, too late, as they’d already been in my bed though” He added with a smirk. And that was true, although the reason they had learned he wasn’t good news was because they’d been in his bed, and then been left in the morning without hardly a goodbye kiss.
