You got all my love to spend
Let's find a place where happiness begins

Basic Appearance: Caleb is about average height, with curly dark brown hair that is often highlighted either blonde or brown. He has brown eyes and a light spattering of freckles on his face. He has a small scar on his hand from when he tried to cut an orange open and accidentally sliced his hand instead.
Personality: ISFJ - The Defender
Caleb's first reaction to almost any situation is to be sarcastic. He uses it liberally in any situation because it was all he had to protect his emotions as a child. He's grateful for his family and he loves them deeply but he's terrible with expressing his emotions and tends to revert to sarcasm rather than acting in an especially emotional way. He believes strongly in taking people at their word, even when he finds them difficult to trust because he doesn't want to be one of those people who doesn't trust anyone. He wants to believe people are inherently good, even when some of the are not. Caleb is often prone to procrastination, which often finds him sitting up into the wee hours to get his work done. He doesn't want to disappoint his Dad's and so he finds it difficult to do badly with his education, but still doesn't like to study as it's not something he ever learned properly. Despite being introverted, Caleb is naturally social despite not wanting to talk too much about himself or his life, though he can easily fall into it when someone gets him started. He doesn't like to dwell on the past but tries to learn from his mistakes. He is incredibly observant, which makes him really good at gift giving, as he likes to get to know the people he is getting a gift for and will either buy or make the perfect gift. Caleb is incredibly supportive of what his friends and family wants even if he thinks the idea won't work. He would try to make suggestions to the idea if he could, but mostly he's a bit of a hype man and is happy to support anyone who needs it. Caleb is loyal and hardworking and likes to be meticulous and careful with what he says and does. Sometimes Caleb has trouble separating personal and impersonal situations, and as such, criticism in a professional capacity can extend to his personal life and cause conflict both personally and professionally. Caleb can often easily take on too much in his life, which can leave him feeling overwhelmed and unaccomplished as he feels fulfilled when he completes tasks properly.
Immediate Family: Biological Mother: Amelia Chan - died when Caleb was very young. She was a teenager herself and was considering giving Caleb up for adoption before she died, but the decision was taken out of her hands after her death.
Biological Father: Cameron Thiessen - Cameron was only a teenager when Caleb was born and never wanted to be a father. When Amelia died, he thought it would be best to give Caleb up and wants no contact with his child. As it was a closed adoption, he knows nothing about Caleb and has no wish to learn. He is currently a low grade ministry worker and has an entirely new family who know nothing about his past.
Adoptive Father: Ryan Bennett - Ryan is a local artist and makes money both from commissions and selling his traditional art to collectors and museums in and outside of New Zealand. He specialises mostly in more magical based paints, with his works often featuring colour changing palettes and shifting lines.
Adoptive Father: Diego Bennett - Diego runs a local art gallery which mostly showcases his husbands work along with other local artists who are able to get a leg up into the industry through a professional show with Diego's sponsors.
Brothers: text
Sisters: Nola Bennett - Caleb gets along really well with Nola and he trusts her with his life.

Hurts when I'm leaving you

Strengths: Supportive, Reliable and Patient, Imaginative and Observant, Loyal and Hard-working, Good Practical Skills
Flaws: Fatal Flaw: Repressing Feelings - Caleb is extremely private and sensitive, internalising a lot of his feelings almost all of the time. Much in the way he feels the need to protect the feelings of others, he always tries to protect his own, leading to a leading to a lack of healthy emotional expression, which can lead to a lot of stress and frustration.
Major Flaws: Takes things too personally sometimes, Reluctant to Change
Minor Flaws: Humble and Shy, Overload Themselves, Too Altruistic

Just dance in the living room, love with an attitude
Drunk to an 80s groove

Patronus: Otter These creatures are ingenious, loving, playful, and loyal. They hold hands to sleep, use tools to open clams, and love to play. They are loyal to their group and rely on each other for support. Otters are the kind of animals who work bets together, but also have a supportive net that allows them to work apart as well.
Patronus memory: His adoption and meeting his new family.
Boggart: Abandonment - Caleb is terrified of being abandoned as he was as a baby. He has trouble trusting people, but does so anyway and when facing a boggart, this displays as people physically walking away from him.
Ridikkulus: Caleb would turn his boggart into his friends and family embracing him and asking him to stay.
Animagus: Otter

It's only human, you know that it's real
So why would you fight or try to deny the way that you feel?
