I’m nothing but a human, after all. Nothing special.
GENERAL APPEARANCE:
Seth is like any other shifter - in fact, he's very much like a puppy whose paws are too big. Tall and gangly, sometimes seth doesn't quite know what to do with himself. He's uncoordinated most of the time and ends up tripping over his own two foot. His short cropped black hair is almost constantly in an organized disarray from all the times he's constantly ruffling it. A pair of bright brown eyes seem to sparkle every time he talks. It has been noted by several people that he always has a big happy grin stretched across his face. Though Seth is tall he's quite well built, he just doesn't know what to do with himself yet. From running and working out he has become lean and well muscled, though he is easily over powered by his pack brothers.
If you see Seth walking down the street, you'll probably notice him right away because of how he dresses. You might find his in a pair of white wash jeans or a loose pair of basketball shorts. Of course, he'll either be wearing a generic white tee with a few necklaces, or no shirt at all. Though, the necklaces run standard. They were gifts from his family members when he came of age and shifted for the first time. One, a bear claw, he almost always wears, no matter where he is, the others are all sea shells off the coast. And no, the necklaces aren't his only adornment. Despite the strong protests of his parents he got the cartilage on his left ear pierced. Even now he still thinks its cool.

You’re not the only vampire I know.
GENERAL PERSONALITY:
The best way to describe Seth is to think of a big puppy. He's in constant need of attention, sure, but he's also lovable and loyal. Seth can never find a way to stay mad at anyone, he always seems to forgiven someone within a few minutes. Extremely compassionate and understanding, Seth looks past all the flaws he sees in someone. He believes that it is better to focus on the good rather than be fixated on the bad. Seth also has the idea that all people - good or bad - only need to find some level of understanding, and that no one person is worse than the next.
Of course, there are always to sides to people. And though Seth is extremely understanding and is quick to forgive, it is insanely easy to hurt his feelings. Seth isn't one to wear his heart on his sleeve, and he'll smile even if he wants to cry - he's just very good at pretending to be fine. Seth is definitely a lover and not a fighter, but if it comes down to it he will fight to defend those he loves. Speaking of love, Seth doesn't believe in it.
Seth sees his pack mates imprint, and he can sense their feelings, but it is such an overwhelming idea for him that he can't seem to truly understand it. And, while he knows that imprinting is essentially love, he wonders what it is like to really be in love without the strings of fate tying you to someone else. He thought he'd felt it through Jacob, but he still isn't quite sure.

GENERAL HISTORY:
Seth grew up just like all the other kids on the reservation. He lived a fairly sheltered life, strongly protected by his mother and father. His overprotective mother often made him feel stifled and suffocated and he often attempted to disappear from her in order to find his own way. Seth attached him self to Jacob Black. He was a very hear headed individual, but Seth found his ideas and his attitude inspiring. Though Seth may have seemed like a tag along, Jacob had really become the brother that Seth had never really had. Seth's aggressive sister was always snapping at Seth and he almost constantly felt like he could do nothing to make her happy, which is why he tries so hard to make everyone else smile. He just wants to feel like he can make an impact on someone.
Overall Seth was a pretty lazy kid when he was younger. He had close zero motivation to do anything but lay around until Jacob entered his life. Jacob wanted to get up and do stuff, and his eagerness slowly rubbed off on Seth until he was almost never home. He would go out with Jacob, Quiel, and Embry and they would go exploring or to the beach or cliff diving. Because of his friends influence Seth became extremely active and - to his father's satisfaction - took up sports and became a much more exciting kid.
Seth's family always wondered about him. His parents were especially concerned that his lazy attitude would pass to his school work, and for a while it had. Seth is your average student, even when he tries really hard. He does well in History and English and Biology, but struggles incredibly in Math. Now that he's far more active and his need to please drive has finally kicked in Seth tries so much harder to make his parents proud and show them that he'd changed.
Seth's entire life changed, however, the day he first shifted. His life was no longer about making sure he was on time to practice or attempting to get his homework done or studying for the next test. It became about duty and responsibility to the tribe and his heritage. But it also caused a huge tragedy for Seth. Henry Clearwater, Seth's father, died of a heart attack. Seth found out later it was because both Seth and Leah - his sister - were shifters, and he couldn't help but blame himself. To hide his feelings Seth threw himself into any task that was put before him, whether it was school or running patrol, anything to keep his mind off of his father.
Sam, the pack's leader, took the place of Seth's father. Seth looked to him for guidance, but found Sam a very hard person to relate to, so he turned back to Jacob. And, though Jacob was his own age, he was so relatable that Seth slowly found closure in Jacob's company. Now, Seth wants to prove to the pack that he's useful and not just a big baby.
FAMILY:
- Leah - sister
- Henry - father
Stupid, thieving, annoying vampire!
ROLEPLAY SAMPLE:
It was maybe noon on the first sunday of June.
A slight breeze carried the sweet scent of saltwater through the trees as it ruffled the leaves and made the branches sway back and forth idly. Seth lay, shirtless and in his basketball shorts, stretched out on the grass of his backyard. The stems of grass formed an imprint where the gangly youth lay, and he dimly thought of how funny it would look when he finally got around to moving. The sun's warm rays soaked through his mahogany skin and warmed him - though he was hot to being with. It just felt so incredibly wonderful to lay out beneath the sun and just drift between awake and asleep. It was like being a feather on the breeze, drifting lightly back and forth, back and forth, back and forth.
Seth yawned and stretched his arms out like he was flying, and began to drift off into a pleasant dream. The next moment he opened his eyes and the sun was beginning to fade, as was the dream. He vaguely remembered something about a ballet dancing rhino and a candy coated llama as he heaved himself to a sitting position. Roughly, he rubbed his palms over his face, scrubbing at his cheeks and eyes as he tried to wake up. He wondered exactly how long he'd been asleep. OH CRAP!
Seth bolted to his feet and ran into the house through the back door. His mother was in the kitchen peeling potatoes for dinner. She was slightly started by Seth's sudden appearance. Hey Ma have you seen Leah? Seth asked quickly as he began to unclip the necklaces form around his neck. When she shook her head no and went back to work, he bit back a few choice words before he ran back out the door. If it was as late as it felt, and his internal clock was rarely off, then that would mean that Seth was 1 hour, 12 minutes, and 53 seconds late for patrol. Man was he most likely going to get it.
Seth quickly dashed into the woods and stepped out of his basketball shorts before he gave into the ball of energy in his spine. Where a lanky kid had stood a sandy colored wolf sat. Hey guys, sorry I'm late. I fell asleep again. What'd i miss?
You… bit a pillow? Why?
