xxxxx|| Description || In a lot of ways, Jeffrey is pretty average. Average height, average build, average sense of style. Sure, he's attractive, but he isn't someone you'd look at and say "wow." He has a kind look about him, though. He's the type that's always smiling. He holds his head high, has a sense of pride about him that's evident in the way he carries himself. He dresses pretty simply, most of the time. He's not one to experiment; he likes his jeans and tee shirts, he feels comfortable in them, so that's what he sticks with. He always tries to look clean, neat, and overall presentable, but past that, he doesn't think he has much style.

Though not always the most thoughtful person (he has been known to blurt out whatever is on his mind without thinking it through), Jeffrey is genuinely kind, and cares for his friends deeply. Though his desire for attention can occasionally get in the way of being an excellent friend, he always tries to be a good one. Sure, he tends to make everything about him, but he generally means well, only wanting whatâs best for his friends and family. He tends to be loyal to a fault, and will almost always take the side of a friend, the only exception being if he believes the person in his life to be morally wrong.
Jeffrey has a short temper, especially when heâs been wronged. Heâs been known to fly off the handle into some sort of tirade, or even get a little rough on occasion. Heâs not afraid to get his hands dirty if someone he cares about is in trouble, or if some loud-mouthed jerk is insulting his friends. Heâs gotten into trouble over it more than once, and that trouble isnât likely to end any time soon. He doesnât go out looking for a fight, and never intends to cause trouble, but it just infuriates him to see someone belittling someone he cares about, or someone weaker than them. Especially when itâs someone who canât- or wonât- stand up for themselves.
Jeff has a sense of humor that tends to present itself in the worst of times. He seems to be able to crack a joke in any occasion (whether or not itâs actually funny is another story), and is nearly always able to view things from the bright side. An endless optimist, Jeffrey has never found a problem he couldnât solve with some serious thinking and help from his friends.

xxxxx|| Likes || Jeffrey loves space, especially the stars, he loves drinking coffee of all kinds; heâs not snobby, and will drink it just however you give it to him. Like most people, he loves music. He has a real sweet tooth, and especially loves donuts. In his spare time, he loves reading comic books, and biking.

xxxxx|| Dislikes || Jeffrey hates crowds, and while he isnât afraid of them, he isnât a fan of snakes. He doesnât particularly like the quiet, and prefers to fill it when he can. He hates puzzles. If he wanted to be confused, he would just do with coursework. Rain makes him sad, and he tries to fill rainy days with whatever he can that makes him happy.

xxxxx|| Fears || spiders, clowns, airplanes.

xxxxx|| Education || Jeffrey is studying astrophysics at NYU, he gets excellent grades and is doing his best to keep it up. He doesn't have a job outside of his studies; his parents pay his way so long as his grades are high enough to please them. He lives more than comfortably, and is more than happy to study to keep up his lifestyle.

xxxxx|| Talents || Jeffrey is a quick thinker and he's good with conversation. He's never really developed many talents, however.
xx
xxxxx|| Strengths || Jeffrey is a quick study, he's good under pressure, and he's fairly intelligent.
xx
xxxxx|| Weaknesses || Jeffrey is very passionate, maybe too much so. He's not very independent; he's never had to do much on his own, and wouldn't know where to start.
He never really had any problems in school, he studied hard and did well, while his sister was out making friends and enjoying her teenage years. Jeffrey felt a lot of pressure to study hard and succeed, though his worries and stress over his grades here often laughed at by his friends. In a lot of their eyes, Jeffrey had everything. He was a little shy when he was a kid, and more than a little nerdy. His sister was so boisterous, though, that he had to be even louder, bolder, and more obnoxious to get any attention. Being twins, his parents had always known that they would likely be very close or bitter rivals, and they cycled between the two. Theyâre closer now, with some distance between them.
Now, in college, he has a decent set of friends. Being a âtrust fund baby,â as some of his friends would say, heâs often roped into funding trips and parties and everything else. His parents keep up his cash flow so long as he gets good grade, which isnât always the easiest when youâre studying physics, but Jeffrey gets by.
