Thoughts on the Situation
He's here for reasons unbeknownst to others. He wants the truth, yes, but his priority is vengeance.
Appearance
Aidan is the walking definition of tall, dark, and handsome. His body is formed in a farmer's build: broad shoulders, a slight slope inward to his hips, and wiry muscle create a physique with a decent amount of speed and plenty of horsepower. While he is still growing, Aidan stands at a good 6'3 and weighs in on the middle-to-light side of the spectrum. He stands tall and has a confident, dominant posture that gives him a few extra inches' worth of faux height.
His pitch black hair is usually messy, though he does fix it on occasion. It is longest on the top, about three inches, and gradually cuts down to where it barely lays over his ears. It's thick, straight, and surprisingly soft to the touch -- not that he would ever willingly let someone touch his hair. Aidan has a natural part on the left and a couple cowlicks, though the latter are not very noticeable until it gets wet. When not combed back, his hair falls to his eyebrows and can, when he lets it grow out, irritate his eyes.
A golden, bronze tan complexion makes his eyes pop out all the more prominently: framed by dark eyelashes, his eyes are an electric blue in color. They hold a dangerously intelligent glint in them, serving as a mechanism to keep most people away from him. Tightened, somewhat lighter skin in the form of a long, thin scar runs just above his left eyebrow, down over his eyelid, and ends about halfway between his cheekbone and lower jaw. Several less-prominent scars etch his body here and there with a small conglomeration of them located on his right shoulder and shoulder blade.
Aidan's voice is that of a low tenor; his tone is hard and, while not demanding, has an air of don't-take-no-crap to it. Authoritative might be a good way to describe it, though he does not claim authority over anyone but himself. He walks with firm strides that take him swiftly to his destination. He radiates a wild kind of power -- a dangerous one.
Personality
Aidan is as wild as tempestuous seas. Unpredictable, dangerous, and very much "bad boy," it is very alarming when he gains a moment's calm; it usually indicates boiling emotions that he does not want to show, and it is very rarely anything happy. When his side-swiping insults and snarky, sarcastic behavior dies down, something is usually wrong -- either in him, or the person he's thinking of is about to be kaput.
Aidan's mannerisms are mature in some ways but externally give no sign of being such. He is quite intelligent and devious, formulating and carrying out plans with ease. He can take control of things and play leader surprisingly well, showing a collected, oriented demeanor, but he rarely shows this in school. His rambunctious nature gives him the immature title, but he's not about to start going to school and being a decent, upstanding member of society.

Backstory
All anyone knows about him as of now is that he came in from the wastelands east of the mountains and declared his claim to power.
Strengths
+ He was blessed with a glorious metabolism, so while he needs to eat a fair bit, he can eat anything and not gain a pound.
+ Lock picking. Big locks, small locks, mediocre size locks, he's your man. Give him a bomb or a Bobby pin; either way, he can get it open with ease.
+ Hand to hand combat. He fights dirty, but he's good at it.
+ Enhanced physical strength, speed, and agility
Weaknesses
- Not a bargainer. Not a peacemaker. Completely an executioner.
- Very much not trusting, won't let people in. This can be quite detrimental in situations when he may feel overwhelmed or alone.
- Will not ask for help with anything, even if he's dying. If he's got a broken leg, he's not telling.
- Has no problem using his fists instead of his words, but it's not really a temper thing
