MAKE YOUR MOVE, PICK AND CHOOSE[/color][/font][/center]
Organisation. Zane is one of the more organized people one could meet. He likes things being placed in order, and likes to plan ahead, just to make sure he is prepared, and knows whats going on. He prefers to do things now, than have them piled up later on.
Robotics. From a young age, Zane showed keen interest in the art of robotics, always wanting to absorb as much information as he could about them, such as their design, and how they are produced. He is extremely good with his hands.
Overachiever. Zane aces all of his subjects, mainly because he actually focuses and does all of the required work, plus more.
Computers. Zane is a computer wiz, plain and simple. He wouldn't be able to function without his computer. He is a wiz on them, knowing basically all there is to know about them. There is very little he can't help someone with if they're in trouble, and if he doesn't know, it won't take him long before he does.
Loyal. No one is more loyal than Zane. He will always be where he is needed, and is one of the more trustworthy friends someone could have. He stands by the people he cares about, no matter what the circumstances.
Willing to learn. Zane is always expressing interest in acquiring new skills, and learning about new kind of things. Once he sets his mind on something, theres very little someone can do to direct him elsewhere.
Calm. It is very rare that Zane will use control of things, in particular, his temper. He always tries to remain calm when everyone else fails to, not seeing the point in getting worked up over little things.
Sensitivity. Zane is extremely sensitive, always showing his sympathetic and empathic side to others. He always considers the emotions of others before his own, and always tries his hardest to make people feel happy.
Willpower. One of Zane's greatest assets, is his will and the power he possesses over it. When he feels strongly about doing something, he will go through with it, and there is very little anyone can do to stop him.
Considerate. Zane will always look to accommodate the needs and emotions of others over his own, no matter how badly he might be feeling at that moment.
Physically Fit. Although he is one of the smarter students at the school, working on mechanics throughout his teen years, has paid benefits to his body, and his stamina.
Easy-Going. Generally he doesn't take many things too seriously, though some things may affect him in different ways than other things. He tries to see the positive things in life, even if there might not be many.
Adventurous. Just as he is willing to learn, he is willing to experiment and try new things to understand more, and possibly learn more.
WEAKNESSES
Confidence. Zane isn't very confident in himself, and for that reason is reserved around the people he doesn't associate himself with. He notices the cool people in the school, and knows that he is nowhere near as cool as them, and probably never will be. Sometimes he wishes he could just fit right in, like they do so easily.
Adventurous. Although a strength of his, it can lead to him becoming quite reckless in order to try new things.
Strong-Willed. Like above, this is also a strength of his, however is also a vital weakness, as he can become reckless when he sets his mind and heart on something; not identifying the potential consequences involved.
His Sensitivity. The things others say can sometimes break through his easy-going barrier, and really hurt him on the inside in different ways. This may prove a weakness in certain situations, as he might chose to give up on everything at one point, or throw his life away.
Kindness. Because Zane treats people as he would like to be treated, it can sometimes backfire, where people will take advantage of his kind nature, and he won't be able to see through the lies, or maybe just wouldn't want to see through them.
Isolation. He often feels isolated from everyone else, as he is trying to fit in with everyone, but has such great difficulty doing so. The people he hangs around with aren't overachievers, so he can't always cater to their needs. And the smart people aren't always interested in everything he is, creating a dilemma.

Zane has short brown hair, which is usually portraying a spiked, tidy look. His hair appears lighter in the summer weathers, and darker in the winter weathers, due to the sun lightening his darker hair. His eyes are dark brown also, matching his hair significantly. Zane displays the appearance of a normal sixteen year old boy, but has been told at times that he looks younger than his age, due to his 'cute and childlike face.' However, in height, he stands at 5'7. He isn't muscular, just proving to be an average boy, which might be explained by his lack of interest in physical sports.
His skin is described as 'soft' and 'smooth,' where a light tan is evident, due to him being out in the sun often. The colour of his skin meshes well with his hair and eyes, especially during summer weather. His clothes are always looking rather neat and tidy, and his friends usually critisize him of that, stating that it looks rather bland and boring.
PERSONALITY
Zane has always been in the "cool" crowd, though that isn't always as good and thrilling as everyone makes out. He enjoys his friends, but sometimes just feels like he is just "there," and doesn't belong, or doesn't fit in with their type. He enjoys being himself, not fitting into a particular sterotype to be recognized and liked. Although he can only hope he is liked by as many people as possible, as he doesn't like having negative attitudes towards him. His friends, although supportive of him, do provide some harsh critism of him from time to time, which he accepts because he wants to belong.
Zane has a rather reserved nature, where he won't confront people he isn't close with unless absolutely necessary. Even around his usual group of friends he displays this reserved quality, as he recognizes that he doesn't entirely fit in, however likes the people because he is that easy going and kind-natured. If he is approached by someone, he will enter into a conversation, however he was never known as a conversation starter. He isn't shy by any means, however likes to keep to himself and only engages in conversation when necessary.
Zane is extremely thoughtful and considerate of others, which is one of his stronger qualities, though also a drawback, as he puts his own benefits behind that of other people, even people he doesn't know too well. Selfishness is something that is unbeknowest to Zane, and he does pride himself on being kind natured to other people. Though half the time he doesn't even realize he does it, and sometimes even hates that his too nice to some people, especially those who don't deserve it. He wished he had the courage to just tell people how it is.
Confidence is something Zane does lack in many situations. If he has too much responsibility, he will panick and believe he can't complete the task or that he will fail himself or other people. He does like being adventurous and trying new things, but that doesn't take away the fact that he may be scared more than anything.
LIKES
Mechanics. He enjoys messing around with parts, and creating something useful out of them, or repairing different things; such as cars.
Robotics. One of his favourite studies, he enjoys learning everything and anything he can about them, hopefully able to put it to good use sometime soon.
An Adventure. He likes experimenting with different things, and trying out different things, to hopefully learn more about himself.
Reading. Reading provides for such still silence, where there is patience yet anticipation at what the story will hold on the next page, or in the context of a school book, that he will be able to draw out as much information as possible.
Sketching. Being able to just sit there and be as creative as he wants, with no limits, and draw anything which comes to mine is something Zane thouroughly enjoys.
Learning. Being able to draw knowledge from books and people is intriguing to Zane, and wants to learn as much as he can.
Meeting New People. Meeting new people is generally hard for Zane, but he does enjoy meshing with different personalities and people, who might possibly understand him, or be able to relate.
Fitting In. He hates feeling isolated everywhere, and wishes he could just fit into that group who accepted him fully, and he could talk to about anything.
Being Accepted. As above, he wishes he could be accepted for who he was, and not critiqued because of the quirky things he does, or the way he is.
Creativity. He enjoys being creative and letting the mind run wild, whether through drawing, writing or talking.
DISLIKES
Hateful Comments. Hateful comments generally pass through his easy-going barrier and become rather hurtful, which plays an affect on his self-esteem and confidence.
Bullies. He doesn't like how people get bullied for the way they are, or who they hang around with.
Failing. He fears failing tests or assignments, and wants to make the most of his academic life during school. He doesn't want to be known as the one who fails tests.
Heights. One of his major fears; he will never be seen too high unless absolutely necessary.
Rude People. Rude people generally have a way of hurting Zane emotionally, and he hates how people are able to do that because of his sensitivity. They bring people down for no apparent reason other than enjoyment.
Feeling Insecure. He likes to be in good company, and not feel alone so much. Feeling insecure and alone is the worst feeling for him, though in many ways, he has grown accustomed to it.
Guilt. He doesn't like being in a situation where he feels so much shame and guilt for something he has done. He'd prefer to not hurt another for him to feel such pain.
Animal Cruelty. He cares for nature, and in particular, animals. He feels sorrow when bad things happen to them.

CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT
Without giving away any of my awesome plans for him, Zane will be a male-version of Willow, though will be in a rather different situation. Because he is seen as good looking and does play some sports, he is situated with the jocks and the cool kids. He doesn't however feel like he fits in, which will be a major theme over the first year or so, where finding people like the slayer and others not so normal will help him find a new identity and friends, and help him drift away from the place he doesn't feel entirely comfortable.
Eventually I am looking to have him somehow become involved with the world of witchcraft, and begin learning more and more about it (Eventually possessing magical abilities/though I don't want to force or rush this and make him look like a powerful character because the entire situation for a long time will be that he isn't). He will enjoy reading and helping out in that aspect of research, and will be very valuable with computers and robotics (if applicable). He may possess some enhanced fighting skills than Willow, however he won't become a character who can just knock vampires out like that. Weaknessess help develop a character, not strengths.

___________________________________________
ROLEPLAY SAMPLE | Four-Years Experience
He was now shivering. Not because of the coldness that was surrounding them like a thick mist, or because he was scared of being with Gemma, but because he had never felt these emotions in such a long time, but they were even more intense than they had ever been. His body was tensing up from how he was feeling. Every muscle...Every fibre was feeling the warmth of being this close...This intimate with Gemma. He wasn't fearing these new emotions and feelings which were surging through his body, instead he was allowing them to control him, take him over. There could be nothing bad in letting these emotions out, showing them to Gemma. He wanted to show Gemma everything...Everything about him. He wanted to learn everything about her as well, know her like noone else ever could. They had so little time to do it. Although there were so many years ahead of them, it wasn't enough...It wasn't enough to truly know and understand the woman he loved. It wasn't long enough to show how much he loved her. It wasn't long enough for him to be close to her. Always.
Then Gemma took his hand, and they were moving. He had no control over his movements, he was just following his heart, and in turn, following Gemma. Wherever she was taking him, he knew it would be a place they could spend time together, enjoy together. Wherever it was, it would be undoubtably perfect because she was there. Because the two of them could connect, and be together like they belong. He grinned as he continued running after her, noticing she was taking him down an alley, somewhere cut off from the rest of the world. He liked this. It was almost as if they were thinking the exact same things, and they wanted the same things. Now that he felt comfort in them being truly alone, he stopped, pulling Gemma back gently with a warm smile pressed onto his face, which when around Gemma, would never fade. He moved in and pecked her gently on her soft, tender lips, before staring at her in the eyes again. "Marry me babe. Marry me Gemma." His smile turned to a more brighter one, with the delight obviously present on his face. For Gemma to say yes, he would be in complete extacy.
He hadn't even noticed how spooky the alley was actually. He was so fixed on Gemma, that nothing else mattered to him. All he could wish for, was the safety of his girl. The girl that he loved more than anything else. He was so eager to hear words come out of his mouth, hear her answer. There was a part of him that knew she would say yes, but just hearing her confess would make his world spin around. That was, until their moment of intimacy and privacy was interrupted. He could sense the darkness as soon as he felt the chill that he hadn't felt since meeting Gemma. He turned to the side nervously, to see his worst fears...A vampire. In Sunnydale. He gasped, loud this time, with complete fear passing through his body. He was remembering his girlfriend being slaughtered by a vampire, and he instantly turned to Gemma. No....No! He wouldn't let anything happen...Not again. He would die inside if anything happened to Gemma. She was like noone he had ever known before, and he wasn't ready to let that connection go.
The vampire shoved him aside, and he fell to the floor in a thud, before looking up at the vampire and Gemma in fear. He quickly got to his feet, and punched the vampire, realizing how little effect it had. The vampire licked his lips, before throwing Xzavier into the wall, crashing his spine hard into the brick. He groaned in pain, not even knowing if he was able to get back to his feet. The vampire was so strong, and it was like last time...Too strong for him to do anything. But he couldn't let the vampire hurt Gemma. She was the light to his darkness, and without that, he was nothing. He was noone. Gemma made him feel like someone, and she made him know that he had someone that cared for him as much as he cared for her. "Don't touch her!" He yelled, anger shown in his voice. He couldn't let anything happen to Gemma. The vampire looked like it was going to sink its teeth into her, when he found the strength to get to his feet. He looked side to side, and found what he was looking for. Although he didn't know much about vampires, he knew they didn't like stakes through the heart. He picked up a sharp piece of wood from the crate he had fallen into when he crashed into the wall, and ran at the vampire with it lunged in the air. The vampire punched him in the head, causing it to drop near Gemma, then grappled him, and leant in to taste him instead. He gasped, feeling the fear of what was going to happen.[/color]
