Hair color and style
With dark brown eyes and black hair he offend gets compliments over his hair color. Offend people wonder where he got it dyed or comment on how natural seeming it is. Why does it look natural? Since it is. Most people just dye their hair black later in life for a "rebellious look". Well Christian was never really "rebellious"... Sure, sometimes he had teenager angst, but he was never rebellious. Often his mother will bother him to get a hair cut. Why should he though? The way Chris sees it is, his hair isn't down to his butt yet so, why take to time to go get it cut? There was no point. Besides some people, apparently, like the tussled style of his hair.
Eye color
Brown.
Voice
Just breaking in. Christian is a tenor, but because he is still settling into his voice it'll sometimes crack into odd little squeals.
Distinguishing marks
Burn mark on his left thigh.
Build
Christian is finally starting to grown, and the fat he once had during those "awkward" years burning off. Still growing Christian isn't yet perfect. Christian is at an average weight, so his doctor says, but still has a little fat on him. No man is perfect, right?
Stance
Mostly straight, but with a slight slouch. He tends to think about many things while walking, and isn't rare for him to walk into things or people.
Clothing style
Chris doesn't have a basic style. So when he heard he had to wear a uniform he didn't mind the least. Clothes were just clothes. They're something that covers the private areas of your body and nothing else.
He doesn't really put much effort to his appearance, except when he is going to church, and offend forgets to even brush his hair. Why bother with such tiresome things when you could be doing something actually useful?
If you were to take him shopping he'd try on a few sweaters and then put them back. Unless you literally force him into something he wouldn't be likely to try it on. His closet it is actually kind of sad. Considering the fact that his mother chose out the few tee shirts and jeans that hang there...
The day he heard about uniforms it was almost a relief. He wouldn't have to worry about what people would think about his picked over wardrobe... Also everyone would look the same. Fashion... big deal.
Basic appearance
Christian isn't too self conscious about his appearance. He keeps his hair short enough for convenience. After hitting that age, and losing a lot of weight, Christan's face has become much more defined. With a sharp jawline and pouty lips. Occasionally he'll get a pimple here and there, but who doesn't? Overall his complex is quite clear.
personality
& phobias
Claustrophobia; Fear of small/enclosed spaces.
Christian is deathly afraid of being in small or enclosed spaces. When he was little his friends and him would play push the box down the hill, and well it didn't go too pretty. He can't handle more than a few seconds in an elevator, and often has to go one floor at a time. Get out, get in, get out, get in. This proceeds until he reaches his floor. Other ways he might end up passing out.
Arachnophobia; Fear of spiders.
Christian hates bugs, but most of all hates spiders. As a kid he could "feel" the spider's eyes on him. Surely enough his mother would have to search and kill the spider while he cowered outside the door.
Aerophobia; Fear of flying.
Already fearing heights Christian can't stand the thought of flying. Having to fly from the school back home, and so forth, puts him in quite a disposition. Before getting on his plane he'll take a few Tylenol PM to sleep on the trip. Unfortunately he is conscious while taking off, and then will grip the handles and in desperation squeeze his eyes shut. Staying like that until the medication kicks in.
Acrophobia; Fear of heights.
The monkey bars is one place Christian couldn't stand as a child. After breaking his arm from falling off one. Climbing up a flimsy, shaking ladder or shimming up a rope. Christian just can't do it. When he gets too high he looks down, and thinks about how far he'll fall and then fall. It especially doesn't help when people say DON'T look down.
Fear of storms.
Christian is terribly afraid of storms. In the event of one he'll often crawl into someone's bed for comfort. Just the fact of someone else being there heals his complete and utter fear. However, many don't like his visits during this time.
Hemaphobia; Fear of blood.
Christian hates blood. Just the sight of it makes him queasy, and having it touch him is just sickening. Fearing germs he'll have a heart attack if someone's blood was to touch him. Just his own blood is bad enough!
Dentophobia; Fear of the dentist.
Having the bad luck of getting cavities he has developed a certain fear of the dentist. In fear he might discover something else wrong with his teeth and start away on drilling. Which would cause him pain yet again.
Gymnophobia; Fear of nudity.
Christian is very shy about stripping down to absolutely nothing. He doesn't dare take a bath if anyone else is near. The worst though is when he sees someone else in their birthday suit. It's just sickening. He avoids the showers after gym, and bolts for the door instead.
Genophobia; Fear of "doing it".
Pain, "pleasure", and disease. They are all products of "doing it". Christian. Although his mother has tried to talk with about doing it with a girl he likes, Christian refuses. Just the thought of it makes him shiver.
Mysophobia; Fear of germs.
Christian is afraid if getting sick. Therefore he is afraid of germs. He'll often carry hand sanitizer with him, and a first aid kit to disinfect cuts.
& the good
An optimistic view on life is one thing he constantly keeps with him. If you had so many unlucky things happen to you then wouldn't you try to keep a happy perspective. It might be ironic... Those who are lucky are miserable and those who are unlucky are joyous. Maybe it is an act of survival, nonetheless, he is still a rather cheery person.
He is also a morning person. While most people like to stay up late and sleep late he enjoys going to bed earlier and waking earlier. As a strong believe of "the earlier bird gets the worm" he gets up at 5 am every morning and to bed at 9 pm. He never was a big party crasher, but he can't deny he likes to relax and pop into the good times.
He is rather talented on the piano. In his trouble years he used to go to his grandmother's who had a lovely piano. There she taught him how to play it, and when he got into school he continued on with it.
& the ugly
Whatever way you look at it you can confidently say Christian is just unlucky. Sure he may be clumsy, but most of the things that happens to him is just pure unlucky. If he was to go to the movies for a movie he badly wanted it would be sold out. If he were to go to the park on a sunny day it would start raining. Not only does he have bad luck commonly, but he offend gets into trouble into it. Such as walking into awkward situations between people... Or opening the unlocked toilet stall and discovering another person. Cooping with shit like this is one of his few talents. After almost being arrested twice in his life you tend to give up.
Christian is a bit of a safety freak. Though can you blame him? After all, he does go through a whole lot on a daily basis. With his luck and clumsy, awkward nature. He offend carries safety kits, and packs a car starter with him for road trips. Anything sharp he tends to avoid, and he never leaves the house with out his good old umbrella.
When ever a storm comes he sometimes climbs into the beds of others in search for comfort. He is also terrified of small spaces. He feels he can't breath right in them, and the fear of being closed in irks him.
He normally only drinks bottled water since he easily spills things. More from his clumsy habits. He's learned from experience that opening any bottle of soda is a bad idea for him. Since it will either fizz all over him, or the can will spill all over when he tries to move it. He also doesn't like ice cream. When he was little it would always fall off the cone, and when he eats if from the cup it melts too fast. Plus his teeth are very sensitive so the cold ice cream bothers him.
He's a bit of a teeth freak. After getting a cavity at a young ate, which scared the crap out of him, he has brushed and flossed every morning and night since then. Cavities are just too horrible to deal with...

One of Christians many talents is working with what ever comes his way. Seeing as he is the unluckiest bastard on Earth. He is also quite talented at the piano.

habits
Shaving. After those few years of growth for a boy there comes one great tradition, shaving. Although Chris doesn't really need to shave he takes great pride and doing the practice every morning. Once he wakes up he takes a great glob of shaving cream and rubs it around his face then wipes - seeing as there is no hair there - it off with a razor.
Cleaning. Dusting off tables and making the bed.

Christian also wishes the end of his bad luck, but it seems like it won't be leaving him anytime soon.

History
Christian was born at a regular hospital. A few weeks earlier than expected. He lived a normal baby life, and up until he was to he was showered in his parent's love. When his baby sister was born he and his parents were excited. She was a cute baby, but she cried a lot. The loud tremors of cries right across from Christian's room often kept him awake, and so starting his lifetime of unluckiness.
At the age of five he began have toothaches. So, naturally, the parents brought him to the dentists. There he was diagnosed with a cavity and had to drilled. The whole process was rather traumatizing for a five year old, and when he it was finally done he brushed and flossed his teeth every day and night.
It wasn't until he was in fourth grade that he discovered how unlucky he was. He had got two detentions that year for walking in on fights that he wasn't involved in. He would offend trip over his untied shoelaces... Which were almost ALWAYS untied. So when the Velcro style came out his parents bought it for him.
At the age of twelve he became seriously depressed. He didn't want to eat or go to school. That year he almost missed the whole year. The school threatened to fail him, but through the resistance and convincing of his parent's they didn't. Despite the fact he was depressed he never attempted to take his life from the world. Maybe it was the fear of dying, or maybe it was the small might left in him.. The small might that encouraged him to be a good influence to his sisters.
After some counseling his parents sent him to his grandmothers. His grandmother had strict rules and could be harsh at times, but she was truthful and truly a great lady. She would demand for Christian to eat and who could resist? Everyday she would wake him early and they'd go to church. Later in the day, she would teach him to play that lovely piano he had his eye on since he got there. She was the greatest influence on his life.. Her tough personality sending a strict message.. Never give up, and he didn't. When he turned fourteen his grandmother grew ill, and then passed away. Sure he was sad, but he kept strong for his sisters. He kept strong for himself.
A few years later his family and him packed up and moved. After a month or two of public school his mother encouraged him to go to Eddingborough school for boys. It sounded kind of lame at first, but the more he thought of the remote school the more he liked it. So he signed up.
