History
Childhood
- Caleb's childhood is as boring and normal as they come. Having an identical twin and younger sister to grow up with meant that he was rarely alone. While their parent's were at work the siblings would often play in the woods near their house, making forts and pretending to be on some great adventure. Despite their mothers warning not play in the forest they had gotten into a few close calls with the local fauna, ending in a few swift swats to their behinds once they were safe.
Adolescency
- This was a tumultuous time for Caleb as he began to pull away from his family and become more isolated. He felt different for most his childhood and it wasn't until adolescence that he came to accept the truth of his bisexuality. His father took it the hardest causing a rift between the two as he felt ashamed of Caleb. For days his father would avoid him, never even looking at the boy. And although his mother and siblings were more understanding, Caleb made the decision to leave home. The first year was difficult for him as he made his way through the forests, living off the survival skills he was taught as a kid. But food was scarce and his ability to hunt was sub par. Having no real skills to speak of and desperate for gil he enlisted in the Eorzea militia. This in turn helped to keep him off the streets and fill his coin sack with some gil. He would spend the next few years defending the borderlands from Garlean encroachment.
Adulthood
- Years past and many battles were seen by Caleb, the pain of losing one comrade in particular however was more then he could bare. He had become very fond of another soldier, Adolston, who returned Calebs friendship. The two became inseparable for a time ever at the others side in battle. Their relationship however would come to an abrupt end with one bloody skirmish with the Garleans. Adolston's death in battle sent Caleb into despair, and every battle after would only remind him of losing his close friend. He chose to leave the militia and return to civilian life in Gridania.
Recent Years
- In recent months Caleb is starting settling down from the life of a wanderer, to an apprentice at a smithy. He does not own a place of his own just yet, but has been saving gil to one day own a piece of land. He has also recently been reunited with most of his family, save for his father with whom he still has a very tense relationship with. But the wounds with the others have began to heal, and Caleb is making his best effort to ensure that they do. Caleb has also made a few new friends along the way.
Traits
Skills
Magic: Caleb is still new to what he would call "Finger Wiggling" but under the guidance of Ioakim Tarantella he has started to hone his ability to heal. He is also seeking to get some guidance from a former Commander he served under during the Garlean invasion, and learn how to weave magic to enhance his physical combat capabilities.
Swordplay: Caleb is pretty accomplished when it comes to the sword and shield, having been trained by a fine Paladin in his career with the Twin Adder. His hand to hand combat is average, getting basic training should the soldier ever be parted from his weapons during combat. His ability with a bow is about average as well, though he has not used the weapon in combat, the bow for Caleb as strictly been a means for killing game for food when he was out in the wilds. And his skill with other weapons is highly lacking since he has yet to branch out into other weapon combat.
Education: Caleb was put through basic schooling, thanks to his parents, and has the basic intelligence and knowledge that any schooled person would have. Though his accent might deceive others into thinking the man is less than learned.
Weaknesses: Caleb is a walking shield in combat who can take a hit and keep on ticking, however the man is not as quick as others, something he has been trying to improve upon. He is use to taking the hit for his fellow soldiers and so he is not particularly skilled with avoiding most attacks. If one can get past his shield they will likely find an easy target to attack.

Demeanor
Caleb for the most part is a quiet man who keeps to himself, especially when in big crowds. This might come across as his being anti social but despite the large man's appearance he is actually quite shy. He is also a very honest person and despises being lied to, while he does value truth he himself prefers to try and be tactful with what he says to others.
Caleb also has a streak of narcissism though nothing to extreme, he knows what he is good at and has no problems telling people so. He is also confident in his physical appearance as he puts a great deal of time and sweat into keeping in top shape, some of his outfits reflect this confidence by leaving little to the imagination. Caleb is also an honorable man and expects those around him to act honorably as well, though this has many a time blown up in his face and been the cause for tension between him and others who do not share his idea of what is "honorable".
But while the Highlander might come across as anti social and narcissistic he is loyal to a fault and would do anything for those he loves. Very few things will turn Caleb from his friends, and they can always rely on his support when they need it. He is also a very compassionate and empathic man, knowing when those around him could use an ear with sorting things out. While he might not seem like the most intelligent man, he has surprised a few people with his wit and insight into deep matters.
