Joules Verne

 Name:   Julian Santos, aka Joules Verne (because he claims he could travel around the world in 80 days, you see.  On foot.)

 Creature Type:   Changeling

 Seeming/Kith:   Elemental Airtouched

 Court:   Spring

 Description:   Joules is a freshman at DeLand High School, appearing to be 13 or 14 (although he sometimes acts older.)  The teachers who like him call him "playful" and "mischievous" and "confident"; the ones who don't call him "arrogant," "brash," and (privately) "a reckless little shit." He's highly intelligent - that much isn't in question - and he at least appears to be effortlessly competant at anything he tries, be it death-defying stunts, dancing, or picking up new languages. (Originally from Cuba, Joules is fluent in both Spanish and English, conversational in French, and has been eyeing the German-language elective speculatively.)

 Joules can, quite literally, run like the wind - something he loves to brag about - and often gets tagged to be a courier or messenger by the older members of the Freehold. Although he complains about how this cuts into his social life, he never does pass up the chance to show off. He idolizes McTavish (and, to a lesser extent, Rory Heart), though of course he's way too cool to admit to it.

 In his Mien, Joules is translucent, and behind his skin wild winds whip mist and rain into a frenzy - a direct contrast to the dry heat of his Mantle, reminiscent of Florida's springtime dry season. It is rumored that in Arcadia he was the personification of a hurricane, and the scary thing is that it actually sounds pretty plausible.
