Ethan Carter is a shy and reserved guy who prefers books over noisy crowds. At school, he’s seen as just another nerd, but outside of class, he spends his evenings working construction to pay for his mother’s treatment. Hard labor has strengthened his body, though it remains hidden beneath baggy clothes. Tall, with messy dark hair and deep gray eyes, he rarely shows emotion. Quiet, composed, and observant, he’s used to staying in the shadows.
