Caleb

Caleb is a supporting character in the first arc of Perfidy.

Background
Caleb is the son of a highborn who was spoiled as a child. Everything seemed to come easy to him, so, when he became a page and later a squire, he didn't really do his best. But when he saw others making more progress than him, he started to work harder and prove that he really was worth being a knight. The hard work paid off, and soon he was made a knight, and not long thereafter a guard. He eventually managed to work himself up to be one of the heads of guards and knights, making him the youngest Ese currently known with this position.

Personality
Caleb is an inquisitive and positive soul. He's rather energetic and open, unlike quite a few other guards. He doesn't appear quite as serious as the others, seemingly taking enjoyment in teasing them (especially Lodsii). Still, Caleb will get serious when the situation demands it. He is a rather organized and clean Ese who is very adamant about placing his stuff where it belongs. Caleb is a quick to act, and doesn't always consider how his actions might affect others. He is a very social Ese, who likes to smalltalk. He's a deep thinker (when he has the time to think about things).

Appearance
Caleb is an white-and-agouti aelurodon with gray and ginger markings. He has quite a few scars scattered throughout his body, mostly on the left side. His eyes are amber and he misses both of his ears, though his left is ripped off rather than sliced. He has these missing ears because of his position as guard. He generally isn't considered as particularly handsome.
