| ▸ PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
| Standing at an even six foot, Caleb is deceptively lean though toned in his physical appearance. Like most of the Vanheart children, Caleb is readily identified by his bright green eyes and his honey brown hair which, while not as long as his father’s hair nor even his brother’s hair, is kept swept back with a strand hanging down his face, even if he sometimes leaves his hair hanging freely. Like his father and younger sister, Caleb has spent most of his time outdoors and as such his skin is lightly tanned.
Unlike his sister or brother; however, Caleb has shown to be at ease no matter the clothing he wears whether it be casual or formal. Caleb prefers to dress for comfort above all else, he can typically be found wearing a black short-sleeved shirt under a dark red sleeveless jacket with an upturned black collar and a silver wolf’s head on the back. He also sports a pair of tan cargo pants and a pair of black combat boots. Completing the ensemble are a pair of black gauntlets with silver lining on them. Typically, the gauntlets look like a pair of wrist guards when inactive.

▸ CHARACTER PERSONALITY
| At a surface glance, one could describe Caleb Vanheart as cocky, confident, sarcastic, and stubborn. To the observer, his flirtatious nature gives off the impression of a womanizer; however, he is not the type to take advantage of a woman when she is either inebriated or emotionally unstable and has even expressed outright condemnation for those who do so. Though he’s a cocky and confident person, Caleb has a caring and compassionate side to him, especially towards his younger sisters and has even gotten into his fair share of fights over perceived insults towards their character. Complimenting this is the fact that Caleb takes an incredibly dim view of bullies and tends to match their aggression with even greater aggression.
Having been trained by his uncle, Caleb has developed something of a trickster’s mentality towards the world and often engages in pranks alongside his cousin, Xelvon. Though he was trained by his uncle, Caleb tends to play the straight man to his uncle’s brand of pranks even though he is just as bad as Korvon. That being said, Caleb is extremely polite and respectful to his aunt, Suzume as she is perhaps the one thing in the world that can even cause Korvon to behave himself. Though he was only four when she passed, Caleb’s memory of his mother remains one of the more positive things in his life and he even wears a wolf symbol on his clothes in honor of her memory. Unlike his older siblings though, Caleb remains on relatively good terms with his father, Abram. Though he was not happy with his father’s emotional distance, Caleb is the only one of his siblings—that remember Orianna, to make an effort in reconciling with his father and even still calls him “Dad.”
His care and compassion for his younger sisters can reach on the overbearing side as he remains concerned regarding Ashe’s ability to make friends or Adelaide’s desire to become like their older sister, Olivia. Even still, Caleb remains closer to Ashe as he once read to her about ancient heroes of the past and even encouraged her on her own desire to become a hunter. While he remains supportive of Adelaide’s desires to follow in their big sister’s footsteps, Caleb remains rather worried that it would cause her to go down a similar path that Olivia herself went down. But… if ever there were a polar opposite for how he regarded his younger siblings, it would be his relationship with his older siblings.
It isn’t as though Caleb hates his older siblings, it’s just that he finds them rather annoying with their own issues with their father and their apparent lack to try and mend the ties with their family. Olivia, he thinks of as an uptight prude in most cases; however, he does have a few fond memories of a few lessons she had taught him—namely his ability to dance. That being said, Caleb does find her desire to be an omnipresent monitor rather annoying and even notes that it stems from her continued – if denied, distrust of their father. Gabriel, conversely, he has far more irritation for if not outright hostility. The two certainly did have an amicable relationship when they were younger, but when Gabriel moved out and distanced himself from the whole family, it quickly evaporated. To Caleb, Gabriel tries to intrude when it’s convenient for him and tries to force his own philosophies onto the rest of their siblings to a point that goes beyond irritating and into provocation. Moreover, Caleb is greatly irritated by the fact that Ashe has openly admitted to being afraid of their brother.
There is a deceptive maturity to Caleb; however, as he displays a firm understanding of most political situations such as the ramifications of Project Nirvana in the Zorran Confederation or the rise of the Equalists. Caleb is also extremely observant noticing small details where others might miss and combining this with his uncle’s training, he is quite adept in combat and can think on his feet should a situation call for it. However, he also has a fiery temper which has gotten him into trouble on more than one occasion. His temper also plays into his Vigor, the Rage, which has a noticeable effect on him as it makes him more aggressive than normal and even causes his voice to deepen slightly.

▸ BATTLE INFORMATION
| Weapons
Caleb is a brawler and as such strikes out with overwhelming force against his enemies. Caleb wears a pair of black and silver gauntlets that, when inactive, look like a pair of wrist guards. Christening these gauntlets, Forgebreaker, Caleb built them with the idea of amplifying his already impressive physical strength, the gauntlets also possess the ability to generate raw kinetic energy due to its gun barrel attachments. Like Ashe, Caleb uses the intense recoil in order to augment his movement speeds and also the power of his punches. Of course, Caleb’s gauntlets also can fire the shots at a range enabling him to fulfill something of a ranged role in combat.
Vigor
The Rage: Anger and raw emotion given physical form, this is what one could use to describe Caleb’s Rage. Inherited through his mother’s side of the family, when activated the Vigor causes Caleb’s eyes to change from a bright and vibrant green to a feral, beastlike yellow. The change his eyes is followed by an increase in his combat capabilities two-fold; however, his anger runs in overdrive and it causes him to become more aggressive and prone to acting on instinct without proper thought. Caleb’s chakra is also drained at an exceptional rate and the Rage can exhaust him immensely if used carelessly.

▸ CHARACTER HISTORY
| Born as the second son and third child of Abram and Orianna Vanheart, Caleb was raised in a fairly loving household that surprisingly got even bigger when he was just two years old when his younger twin sisters, Adelaide and Ashelia were born. Even then, Caleb was raised with the understanding that as the older brother he would have to look out for the both of them and could even rely on his older brother and sister should he need their help. However, this happy little family would soon be struck with the tragic passing of Orianna which had a profound effect on their children. While Olivia and Gabriel would become something of a surrogate parental figure to the three of them, Caleb would focus his efforts on making the twins as happy and carefree as he could. However, Caleb’s overeager nature nearly cost him dearly as he and his then-five year old sister, Ashe ventured further into the forests surrounding their house than they normally did. While Ashe wound up asleep in a wagon being pulled by her older brother, Caleb himself would continue onwards eventually getting lost within the woods and becoming hopelessly exhausted before being confronted by five lycans.
In what should have been a fatal misadventure, Caleb and his sister were saved by their uncle Korvon. Upon their return home, Caleb was scolded by his uncle and aunt; however, what surprised him the most was that his father had even weighed in before apologizing for having neglected him for three years of his life. From then, Caleb was seen more and more around his aunt and uncle’s house and subjected to a brutal training regiment from his uncle that was disguised as menial chores in some cases such as painting a fence or waxing a car in certain ways to more extreme tasks such as pulling weeds in a specific stance and method. As his training with his uncle progressed, Caleb would routinely spar with Korvon and almost always lose. However, it was with his frustration in a supposed lack of progress that Caleb unlocked his Vigor, the Rage and even began to learn just how to use it in order to help him fight.
As he studied at Pulse Academy, Caleb was notorious for both his intolerance for school bullies and, as he became more interested in such things, his frequent pursuits of the fairer sex. Yet, one thing stood out above all else: Messing with his little sister came at a price as he was almost violently protective of her. Having been accepted into Cocoon Academy has not diminished his spirits, in fact it has only amplified them as he has frequently expressed a desire to travel across the continent of Drachma looking for adventure and thrills even if he remains concerned about his sisters being by themselves while he’s away at Cocoon.
