Height:6’1” Weight: Use this site. If height and weight so not coorespond without a mentioned reason (eating disorder etc.) the character will not be accepted Physical Description: *Body Shape/Tone: Trey has always managed to hold a decent figure. His parents had always fed him the right foods and he never really went astray from the healthy habits of his family. He exercises regularly and plays sports off and on such as basketball to keep himself fit. That doesn't mean he doesn't go out for a cheeseburger or what have you when he's craving it, but it's not like he's eating junk food every day.
*Overall Appearance:
Eyes: hazel-green and mysterious. His gaze often reveals a lot about his thoughts and emotions so you may want to pay close attention. Lips: fuller than you’d find on most men, but still quite attractive. Hair: His dark brown locks are mostly kept short, but there have been periods of time in which he would prefer the shoulder-length haircut. It’s normally a seasonal thing, but in the past few years he’s stayed with more of the clean cut look. Facial hair: yes, Trey has grown out a bit of a beard as well as a mustache. You won’t see many guys his age that have the ability to grow them, but it seems to suit him pretty well, so he figures, why not? All of the men on his father’s side have beards and so it would be difficult to avoid anyway. Both are kept nicely trimmed, of course and they also add a little something extra to his unique and sexy look.
*Flaws: Some may complain that at times he looks a bit too rugged, such as when he has his longer hair. He’s not the most attractive man in the world by any means, but he definitely has good qualities about him.
Clothing Style:
Trey likes to keep his dress quite classy when he isn't at the car shop. What did you expect from a son of a politician and a real estate agent anyway? He took after his parents and chose his wardrobe with a great taste in style. Depending on the occasion, he could wear anything from Nike t-shirts and jeans to an Armani suit. When it came to clubs and special events, he’ll dress up in a decent outfit, usually with jeans and a nice button up shirt. His more casual clothing consists of athletic attire such as Nike, Adidas, etc. It didn’t really matter what the occasion called for because he knew exactly what felt right.

Likes:
Dislikes: Overall Personality: Trey is a very unique guy. He doesn’t try to ‘fit in’ by changing anything about himself either. He basically just likes to do his own thing and he doesn’t care if others like it or not. Now, this isn’t to say he never likes to be a pleaser, but we’ll get to the women later. In general, Trey can be very distant at first and not very open because even with his slight ego, he doesn’t like to talk about himself all that often. He still hates the fact that he is the son of a politician and he would prefer it if most people didn’t know that, though it is hard to avoid. Something about his quiet personality is fairly attractive to others because he isn’t as full of himself as many guys with his physique tend to be. You could trust him to always be himself without embarrassing anyone around him.
Another excellent trait of Trey’s is his listening skills. It wasn’t as though he was simply stubborn and hated to talk. He just preferred to listen, you could say. He will always listen to what another person has to say, given that there are no distractions, of course. He had always been somewhat fascinated by other people ever since he went beyond the bubble that he’d been entrapped in throughout his childhood. Being around the wealthy, snobbish folks simply made him long for something more real. He had always been fairly down-to-earth himself and fortunately had never developed the spoiled attitude that many ’rich kids’ seem to have. Needless to say, he preferred to hang around the people who didn’t have it all and knew how to be independent from their parents. It really bugged him how most of the kids that attended the private schools that he did relied on their parents for absolutely everything. Trey couldn’t deny that he had been spoiled a bit as well. After all, he drove a brand new Acura through college and most of his tuition for college was covered by his parents, but hell, he was a mechanic. What could you expect? He has since sold the Acura and got himself a Toyota Tundra for a fraction of the price so that he was able to pay off most of his college loans. He paid half of his tuition while he was in college. Most kids wouldn’t even bother getting a job, let alone paying for anything. Trey wanted to have complete independence from his parents as soon as he possibly could.
Trey is an extremely committed guy. If he claims he is going to do something, then you can trust that he’ll do it no matter what it takes. He’s never broken a promise and he’s mostly quite honest. He basically is everything that his father isn’t. Trey just couldn’t see himself as a politician. Something about it just seemed to corrupted and staged for him. He wanted to just live a normal life that wasn’t surrounded by cameras and excess attention. Fame was definitely something he had never once thought he wanted for several reasons. He did enjoy his social life, but when you are constantly talked about and photographed, it just wouldn’t feel right. As we’ve already covered, Trey hates politics. It’s one of the few subjects in which he will absolutely refuse to talk about. He’s not ignorant when it comes to what’s in the news. He just doesn’t take any firm stance on any of it because he can never be sure he is ever being told the whole story.
His parents underestimated him greatly. They never appreciated their son for the fact that he was a very smart boy. There was a reason he received high scores without trying very hard. What was a challenge for other students would be a ten minute project for him. He enjoyed the more complicated things in life, which was probably one of the reasons he became interested in mechanics. There were so many different vehicles out there with different engines and setups. To understands them all was something he was definitely striving towards. Again, he is very committed so the fact that he is going after such a career should tell you that he will succeed in doing it. Most people often told him that it wouldn’t get him anywhere in life, but he wasn’t interested in the money. As long as he was financially stable, all he cared about was doing what he loved to do. Why wouldn’t you want to have a job doing what you have a passion for?
Another thing that people don’t notice right away is his sense of humor. No, he isn’t the goofy type that is always trying to crack a joke. He maintains a sarcastic type of humor that has always made him likeable, along with many of his other qualities. It’s too bad he doesn’t talk as much as one might like because he usually always said something funny or thought-provoking. His answers normally were kept fairly short, unless you asked him about something he was truly interested in. It didn’t always have to be cars, of course. He actually enjoyed most topics as long as they didn’t leave any room for debate or argument. He really hated arguing and would avoid them at all costs unless he really thought it was necessary. Perhaps that’s another reason why most people get along with him.
Another thing Trey has a divine interest in is women. Now, don’t jump to any conclusions here. Trey actually respects women greatly. He’s a hopeless romantic, you might say. He never hunts down women for the sake of a good time or what have you. Trey is always a great charmer around women. He always tells them things they’d like to here, but never through dishonest flattery. He felt there was always something you could compliment a woman about, no matter how small it may seem. His charming smile and features are very attractive, which serve in addition to his already attractive personality. Sure, Trey still liked to have his fun and would find himself a part of a fling every once and a while, but it was rare because he was more of the committed type of guy, as we covered previously and he would prefer a steady girlfriend over a one-night stand any day.

Family: Just whatever part of their family that makes a difference in their life Pets:
Home Town: Where was your character born? Job: Mechanic History: Trey was born into a very wealthy family. His mother was in real-estate and his father was a politician. As you may or may not know, being the son of a politician is absolute hell. The expectations were ridiculous. Ever since he was very young, he’d be asked if he wanted to be a politician just like his father and he would respond with an immediate shake of his head or a simple ‘no’ once he was old enough to speak more fluently and better understand what they were implying. Trey hadn’t known what the real world was like throughout his childhood. He just played with the kids that he was supposed to be friends with, which meant they were part of a family that was crucial for his father’s success. It was really too bad that Trey had always been the one to make the other kids cry by taking their toys from them or having a fairly selfish attitude. His favorite words as a kid were ‘I want’ and we all know that that was in every spoiled child’s vocabulary.
However, when Trey was about ten, his father started spending a lot less time with the family and a lot more time campaigning, which seemed to be year-round. It was because of that that Trey didn’t know his father well and sadly, he had never liked his father very much. Every opportunity they had to do something together, his father would come up with some excuse, even if it was clearly something that could have waited or didn’t have to be done at all. Trey’s father was a very selfish man, which would explain why Trey had acted in such a way with the other kids. It was probably best that his father didn’t stick around more often because who knows what type of monster Trey would have turned into had he kept up with his spoiled habits.
Fortunately, Trey’s mother, Rebecca, was quite different. She wasn’t the best mother he could have asked for, but at least she tried, right? Rebecca was the one who took care of him when his father wasn’t around. She taught him proper morals that she had learned growing up in a big family. His mother hadn’t always lived a life of wealth. Her family had actually had quite a bit of trouble financially, which allowed her to see the world for what it was and was able to make fair judgments about it that her father would fail to realize. It was unfortunate that his mother was also fairly naïve when it came to his father’s politics. She simply couldn’t see through his excuses to not be with the family. She just assumed that everything he did was a priority above his wife and kids and she wouldn’t even question it. After a while, it was evident how torn she was from her husband being so disconnected from the family so often.
Rebecca stopped making meals for her two boys, Trey and his older brother, John. She was too busy working. She had started working full-time instead of part-time, probably so she wouldn’t have to be forced to sit around at home wishing her husband was there. It really was quite pathetic. You’d think that a politician like his father would want to spend more time with his family for a good image. Then again, his father did stop by with a camera crew behind him every once and a while just so the media could see his family. Trey knew it was wrong and there were many times in which he wanted to completely sabotage his father’s campaign, but he decided against it, mainly because he hadn’t really wanted his father around in the first place and he hated to think of what his father might do to him if that actually happened.
James was very strict about his profession and would immediately snap at anyone who spoke badly about it. Trey didn’t have a whole lot of friends during his childhood because of how seriously his father took things. No matter how much he may have wanted to hang out with the neighborhood kids, his father would forbid him from doing so because they were ‘bad influences’, which really was far from the truth. They were all fairly good kids; they just didn’t have anything to do with the families his father was determined to get along with. From the age of ten, Trey had to be fairly independent. His parents weren’t around and his brother was out partying constantly. John, by the way, was more of the troubled child in the family and his parents gave up on him a while ago. They tried to keep him under wraps for the most part so that he wouldn’t ruin what was supposed to be the image of a ‘perfect family’, which, of course was far from perfect.
As he got older, Trey had become fairly interested in cars and mechanics. For a while he just flipped through random magazines until he spotted a car ad just so he could see the latest models. When his parents weren’t around, he would sometimes ride his bike over to the nearest car shop to watch the mechanics. After a while, he got to know each of the employees there and they taught him a lot. They even let him help them out with a few things once he was old enough. In fact, once he reached the age of sixteen, they offered him a job there. He took it, without his parents’ knowledge. He knew his parents would strongly disapprove because they had wanted him to go into politics. They acted as though it was his fate to go out and act just as fake as his father, but that wasn’t something that appealed to him at all. Trey actually hated politics by this point in his life, which really shouldn’t be surprising. Call it spite, but it really had never interested him in the first place.
School was a different story for Trey. He went to private schools and got along with most of the kids there, but he was known for being a bit distant and not very social. He was made fun of for being a politician’s son, so he desperately tried to hide it from them as long as possible before eventually everyone in the school discovered it. Despite all of that, Trey did fairly well in school. Elementary school and junior high were pretty terrible, but once he was able to become more independent from his parents, things got a lot better. They eventually stopped caring as much, just like they did with his older brother. Trey enjoyed high school because of that. He had a lot of girlfriends that his parents never knew about. There were one or two that he had brought home, but both of those occasions had been fairly disastrous because his parents didn’t think either was perfect enough for the family or something like that. He started going to parties and became far more social than he was before. He had been fairly popular in high school and was able to finally be himself without his parents dictating any of that.
