Personality: Steve's personality is hard to put into words. He's the type of guy who would be friends with two people who hated each other and would not say a mean thing about the other person to the person he was with. He also needs to hear both sides of an argument before coming to a conclusion about anything. When he is hanging out with his friends he's often the one who's making jokes and keeps morale high among their group of friends. He might take the weight of the world on his shoulders by listening to everybody's problems, but he doesn't show it. His patience could beat Mother Teresa's, though he does have his moments when it wears thin. When it happens he gets all snippy, distant, and generally irritated. It's usually because somebody was doing something stupid for an extremely long period of time.

He's not much of a leader but more like an advisor, many of a times he's said they shouldn't do something, but they do it anyway and he's usually right about what happens. He still participates anyway even though he knows it's doomed to fail, better to have fun and fail than never to have had fun at all. When somebody threatens his friends he's one of the first people to throw a punch. He doesn't like violence, but he has accepted that it solves pretty much every problem that you can't fix with words. His friends may come first but his loyalty is always for sale. He views loyalty is a commodity and like every commodity it has a price.

Just because he has a sense of humor and loyalty doesn't mean Steve doesn't have a dark side. He's always looking to make a buck, his lastest venture was a gambling stand(the entire three cards bit,) behind the school. He worked it that every so often a guy would come around and 'win' big so that people would just give him their money, he worked it so that for every dollar that was bet he got almost 60 cents of it. By the end of the week he had 500 bucks in his pocket and the principal's palms got a little grease. Now he likes to point out that he's not a con man, he's a con artist, there's a difference. Con men lie to get what they want, Steve doesn't lie, inf act he hates lying. Con Artists leave their victims happy, and usually require a silver tongue. He rationalizes the stand as he's selling hope to the students that they might win big on a rigged game. Hypocritical maybe, but it's how he get's through his day.

By looking at him you wouldn't be able to tell that he has a brain in between those ears, he spouts off random information and useless facts like it's his job. Granted they are pretty interesting, but still terribly useless. In addition he's also liable to surprise you with a skill you never knew he had. Like he can do some pretty complex math problems in his head; mainly multiplying and dividing 4 digit numbers. One thing you can probably tell about him just by looking at his face is that he is a stoner, the rest is a closed book. He uses this gross underestimation to his benefit on several occasions.

Steve is lonely, sure he's had his flings with a few of the chicks that were floating around the school. He's honestly never held a girl down longer that a couple of weeks. He enjoys the thrill of the hunt and succeeding, but usually as he's laying awake he feels empty inside. Like there's somebody waiting for him and he doesn't know who it is.

Likes: Blink 182, reading, Fall Out Boy, Eminem, Bowling for soup, video games, and Mary Jane

Loves: Money

Dislikes: Country, liars, people with bad fake accents, guns, and dub step.

Hates: Cops

Fears: Heights (100ft+), dying while his house is being broken into, and putting his heart in a head case.

Strengths: Loyalty, his deft hands, and his silver tongue

History Steve was dropped off at an orphanage with a card that just said his name and his birth date when he was just a baby. He stayed in that orphanage until he was two years old, he was then adopted by a couple calling themselves the Coltmans. They had tried for years to have a child and they had failed every single time. So they decided to adopt, they thought it was best to get a toddler because they wanted him to love them as his real parents. Shortly after they brought him home, the Coltmans were blessed with a child of their own. The months moved quickly and soon Steve had a little sister.

As the years progressed they moved to a small town that their father lived in when he was growing up, they even lived in the same house too, but happiness couldn't last. When Steve turned 9 his parents got divorced. His sister and him both chose to live with their mother. From there Steve bounced from apartment to apartment, and his mother when from loser boyfriend to loser boyfriend. His father dropped all contact with them and they have no idea where he could be. During the summer break his mom met a man. They started dating and they moved one last time.

When he started high school it was painful to see all these kids greet each other because they've known each other their whole lives, they didn't know what it was like to make friends and then leave and then have the entire process again in a year or so. He knew he was going to get picked on, he was the new kid. The new kid always got picked on and sure enough; as Steve was getting his food a group of seniors walked up to him and they pressed him for his lunch money. He wasn't in the mood to talk his way out of another bully. So he did the only thing sensible at the time when your patience wears thin. He hit the biggest kid of the group square on the face with the lunch tray he had. The kid dropped and the other two ran for it. He got himself a week of detention, but he wouldn't get picked on again. In the days that followed he got hired by a few kids to ward off bullies. As the year went on he met the others in the group.

With his school life all settled and taken care of, his home life was far from perfect. His mother's boyfriend seemed like a cool guy at first. Then as the years rolled on his mom's boyfriend became more and more verbally abusive. A couple of kids he could take care of, but that man was a different story. He was mentally unstable, he went from calm to violent faster than you can drop a coin. It also didn't help the man had a couple of inches and at least 50 lbs on him. The closer he was to graduating the more relentless the abuse came. The worse part wasn't the abuse, the worst part was the fact his mother stood right there and didn't say a single thing.

Before Steve left home his mother told him the truth. He wasn't devastated, the last few years had made him strong. When the group goes their separate ways, he's going to his grandmother's to find his own way.
