Full Name: Scaden Nate James
Nicknames: Scaden
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Age: Twenty Three

Occupation: Firestarter
Orientation: Bisexual
Health Problems: Pyromania
† Personality †
Basic Personality: Scaden likes fire. When that is said, it is not the liking of 'oh pretty flame' but rather an intoxication with the idea of things going up in flame. He is a pyromaniac and lights things on fire for the sheer enjoyment of watching them burn. When he sees fire it is almost as if he is placed in a trance, his eyelids seem to falter and his eyes glaze over as if he is watching the best thing. Trying to get him out of this dream-like state is near impossible unless you actually know how to do it.
Love is something that he is a constant failure for, he has never had a relationship that has lasted for more than a month and it is a running joke among his friends to find out who he is with 'this week'. As much as he laughs about it among the men it actually cuts him when his relationships fail. Scaden likes the idea of love so much that it seems he almost strives too hard to find it. He is a hopeless romantic and would do anything for the boy/girl he is in a relationship with. One of his biggest downfalls however is his desire for sex, something that ends up making most relationships fail because of his infidelity. He's yet to find someone that he is content enough to be with solely and thus often cheats on them.
Insecurity is something that he hides with arrogant confidence and witty sarcasm. Mostly however he is quiet and will talk very little. The one thing most people notice about him is that when he does talk; he swears like a sailor.
Scaden is very interested in learning things, whether it be; how to use weapons, how to make something or how something works. He is insesently curious and loves to learn how to do new things which is part of what makes him burn bigger and better buildings, just to see if he can do it. Scaden is infailably loyal to his friends and would climb to the highest hights to protect them or do whatever they wished him to.
His one - private - dream, is that one day he will be able to become a werewolf. He feels that in everyday london the best positions and the best oppertunities are given to the wolves. The idea of eternity entices him, as well as the many other pro's of being a wolf.

Other: There akways seems to be a faint - yet lingering - smell of smoke around him due to his pyromania issues. Although the smell can be taken away easily, he likes it.
† History †
History: Strangely enough, Scaden never knew his mother as she abandoned him at birth in fact, he suspects that the man who he calls 'father' is not his real father but simply an adoptive parent as they look nothing alike. Can you tell, simply from a couple of sentences, that Scaden's childhood is not going to be a fun one?
His first memory is staring at a candle flame as it danced above a picture of his father and his girlfriend, that moment formed and instant love for the beautiful and strangely cunning flame. Scaden fancied that he himself was like flame and that he would move too and fro according to how he pleased, he could not be owned by anything and was as unpredictable as the wind. The thoughts amused him at this time for he was chained to his house like a dog to its kennel, even when he was a young child his movements had been restricted and his father had watched him with a controlling - and almost painful - gaze.
When he was twelve years old, he stole his fathers lighter and walked out onto the street, he walked away from the house and did not look back. Where he walked was to a large, abandoned building that had been left to ruin for many years after the wolf takeover. His eyes had lit up at the sight of it and he walked into the building. Not quite sure how to go about lighting a fire he had simply struck the lighter and held it to a bit of cloth that was hanging off the walls. It ignited immediatly and for a moment he stood there, smiling as the flames roared around him. The building was so rotted and there was so much stagnant chemical fumes and oxygen that the fire caught right away. He didn't see the authorities when he ran away, and they did not see them. Scaden did not return to his house that night, nor any night after that. He was done with taking orders and he now found a new attraction; fire.
Pyromania must have been in his genes for it soon caught on to him and when it did, it fell with all the glory of a falling star. Scaden taught himself quickly how to start fires using cigarettes, matches, lighters and even mediocre homemade bombs. Not only did he teach himself this, but he also found out how to make a fire catch on quickly, how to choose spots that would be noticed - but not cared about - and how to get the hell out of there without getting burned. Scaden taught himself this and he soon became infatuated with the burning buildings and would stand away from them watching the firefighters attack the futile flame.
At the age of fourteen, life was not so great, the thrill of being free had worn off and he began hanging out with those who he should not have. Drugs and alcohol quickly came into the picture and it quickly fucked him up more than anything else had. During a period when he was high he lit an occupied building on fire and the person within it was killed. After that he refused to take anymore drugs and - so consumed by guilt - he told himself that he would never light another fire. He was eighteen at the time and the withdrawal was killing him, he went back on his word and - while he stared at the fire - he was approached by a man who told him that he could be trained to light fires that were guarenteed to not harm anyone and yet at the same time they would draw alot of attention. He was eighteen and had nothing further to lose, so of course he accepted.
It did not take him long before he was told about the werewolves in Government and around the city, he was told how they could kill ruthlessly, run faster, be stronger than any normal man and how they could transform into wolves. It was perhaps, at that moment that his first desire to become a wolf began. With the man's assistance he learned how to use knives and guns and how to make a fire start quicker, burn hotter and go for longer. It gave him a healthy outlet for his pyromania issue and made sure that he did not light compulsive fires.
To an orphan teenager, this man was like a hero and he quickly began to worship the ground he walked on, he no longer took drugs although he still drank compulsivly. Scaden almost, began to live a normal life. Scaden found himself a family in this strange man, and he is never turning back.
