DISTINGUISHING FEATURES Some people say that his height is somewhat distinguishing, but if you asked Sawyer he’d complain that his ears were distinguishable in their own right. He described them as radars but he won’t put up with anyone else calling them that. He has a tattoo of a lightning bolt on his arm, and even though it’s fairly corny he had it done illegally when he turned fifteen and he wouldn’t change it. He has a few scars; from various fights he’s been in.
CLOTHING STYLE Often seen wearing casual clothing, sometimes tee shirts, and when it’s cold he usually pulls out over sized hoodies. Sawyer’s often into wearing the shirt over vest combo with jeans or shorts in the summer. He rarely dresses up unless he has to.

- he’s afraid of losing his elemental powers.
BEST MEMORY
His best memory is when he discovered his powers. It was a bit of a shock because he was messing around, trying to get the toast out of the toaster, using a knife while it was switched on. He’d been warned about doing it for many years but somehow hadn’t gotten out of the habit. He felt a surge of power ride up through his arm and zap him; instinctively he let go; but watched sparks fly out of his fingers. It hurt like hell and it shocked him but he yelled with excitement, before falling flat out on his face.
WORST MEMORY
He can remember his worst memory being when he was fourteen, he was busy in his room, watching something indecent, when his grandmother walked in, and shouted, shocked and appauled that her grandson was ‘that type of child’. She was followed by his mother, and father and brother. It was around the time when he had began to experiment with himself and his boundaries and it was extremely embarrassing. Like a scene from American Pie. Even the thought of it makes Sawyer shrink back in utter horror. He’s never been open about his relationship status or anything of the like since.
LONG-TERM GOAL
To grow in strength and become a powerful politician.

HISTORY
Sawyer was the eldest child to, Maria and Jonathan Brenston. The three of them alike in nature, being thunder elements. Their family was complete, and Sawyer was the perfect vision of the son they’d always wanted. He was intelligent and he had a lot of potential to become something great. When Sawyer was just a young child, his parents accidently conceived a second child. A boy to be known as Samuel; or Sammy for short. The family accommodated the new baby, and his parents were set to raise two of the best elementals the world had ever seen. They were superior like that, they believed that elementals should be out in the open, ruling the humans. It was the prime reason that they had the positions in society, because they had their own agenda. They wanted to take over, with two children that was going to be easier. So long as they dedicated themselves 100% to the cause.
Sawyer and Samuel were almost polar opposites. Where Sawyer strived with direction and discipline, Samuel failed with liability of his emotions. He was unpredictable and difficult to control. Their parents expected them to be in constant competition with one another, and pushed them to do well. Sawyer found it natural to succeed. He found it exciting to be something more than he was. He had been brain washed by his parents and found it irresistibly amusing to look down on those without the powers of the elements. Sawyer didn’t know how to lose. He was so focused and disciplined it was almost impossible for him to accept any other outcome. He excelled in school, and despite having many other interests, he focused mostly on his ability to control his element.
He was relatively well respected by his father, who had high hopes for his son. And his mother was in discussions with friends of hers who’s daughters may be good enough to be with him. She thought that the boy could do no wrong. The way he’d been brought up, and the way his parents idolised him, only put somewhat of a strain on he and his brother. They were close and spent a lot of time together, but Sawyer had been raised with the mentality that he was the best, and so he often put his brother down. He found his intense and unprovoked emotions amusing, and it only caused him to further exacerbate the situation.
When he was fourteen he discovered his powers. It was a bit of a shock because he was messing around, trying to get the toast out of the toaster, using a knife while it was switched on. He’d been warned about doing it for many years but somehow hadn’t gotten out of the habit. He felt a surge of power ride up through his arm and zap him; instinctively he let go; but watched sparks fly out of his fingers. It hurt like hell and it shocked him but he yelled with excitement, before falling flat out on his face. It wasn’t long after since he enrolled at the academy. He had been full of anticipation and hope, and the academy had been everything he’d hoped for. He became popular fairly quickly even though the thunder elemental tried to distance himself and stay solitary. He was able to use and abuse people to help his own merit. Sawyer used his time at the academy to push himself to the limit. He was a bit of an over achiever and always got his parents attention. He graduated from the academy and his parents convinced him to go on to further studies to be the best he could be.
College was different to the academy but it only gave Sawyer the confidence and determination to meet his goals. He was more distracted in college, girls were more on his agenda than they’d ever been and so it was hard to stay focused. There was more rivalry with his brother and even though Sawyer knew that he was more skilled than Sammy, he sometimes couldn’t help feel a hint of jealousy when his parents praised his brother.
His skills developed, and now in his senior year, Sawyer has to consider his future and prepare himself for the real world where distractions are rife.

RP SAMPLEJack had forgotten what it felt like to have Journee back in his life, and while there were times that he’d thought about her; he hadn’t realised how much he’d missed her. He was pleased that he’d come to the party. It was nice to see Journee, and she’d definitely become more beautiful as the years had passed. He couldn’t take his eyes off her, and even though she was one of many beautiful girls in the room, it was as though she was the only one he could see. He knew that he’d be by her side all night, and even though he’d planned to go home relatively early, he couldn’t see himself leaving Journee behind.
It was almost routine that they fell back into, It was one he could certainly get used to, although to do that he’d have to tell her about his daughter. His Lucy. They’d had such chemistry in the past and now it seemed it hadn’t completely disappeared. He was pleased although he knew they’d grown worlds apart and that things couldn’t simply regain momentum from the past. He couldn’t help but feel connected to her, and even though it was probably just an illusion fuelled by alcohol.
Jack had heard all sorts of compliments over the years but he was always sceptical of how true they were, the fact was he was modest and somewhat shy under his sports star bravado. ”You are exaggerating, they only like me cos I have money and am on tv now and then.” He rolled his eyes, but smirked as she began to nibble at his collarbone. His neck was most definitely a soft spot of his and the fact that she was teasing him, and making him remember the passionate nights they’d spent together, was a definite turn on. She kissed him and it was like electricity surging through his body. He knew they had done something familiar to this before to get the attention of the crowd and put on a show, but he wasn’t sure if that was what they were doing right at that moment. He smirked as her cheeks flushed pink. He heard the gasps but they were merely an echo as he focused on the brunette in front of him. He smirked as he followed her and watched as she led him to a bedroom that was completely off limits. ”So you still like to break the rules huh?”
He smiled as she locked the door and he moved closer to her, expecting to continue their make out session, but instead she asked him a question. ”Yeah I guess so, Life’s not exactly perfect but it’s cool. I’d not exactly say I’m all grown up. But I am a single parent.” He told her shrugging his shoulders coolly. ”You enjoying living the dream in the big apple?” He asked her as he moved over to her, his hands taking hers as he entwined his fingers round hers.
