Daring: If you were to dare this cervine, he will accomplish it. There is something quite peculiar about a deer's pride, reason that they wouldn't limit themselves despite them knowing they cannot accomplish some tasks. So, if Aphelion were to be dared, he will take that challenge to the heart. Sadly, this may have caused him some troubles in the past. This has been due to being raised to never give up.
Bubbly: The young man was raised to be curteous, optimistic and highly social in terms of behavior, for this would open new opportunities in the far future. He's easily entertained and perky. His happiness can be bothersome at time. Aphelion gets easily enthusiastic over the smallest of things.
Insecure: Due to his parents way of raising children, Aphelion always felt like he had to live up to everyone's expectations and prove himself worthy among all the other deer; Aphelion is slowly learning to lower his expectations due to accepting the fact that he is simply an ordinary young man with no unique skill, what-so-ever. Pointing out a mistake or being judge would highly pain the deer's mind. Moreover, another important factor that feed his isecuritity relies in his genes, for he is an albino, which has caused him to be judged and criticized, the same as praised.

Deceiving, stealthy, ingenious, mischevious, cunning, clever... However, Aphelion does not abuses his talent of deceipt, it is solely used to avoid very bad odds and ends
Occupation explained:
Courier: Due to being albino, Aphelion has a difficulty working on broad day-light, for the sun-rays damage his eye-sight. He'd often be seen wearing a cap hat during day to protect him from daylight, yet he's mostly active during night life. It is rare for a Courier to work at night hours, reason he was quickly hired for his schedule. His quick feet are a perk; his job consists of delivering verbal messages, physical packages or letters and envelopes, but his attention deffisis and mild deafness get along the way at times. His costumers have been highly pleased with his work. Each and every one of them has received a hand-craft necklace made by the deer.
Strengths Explained:
Prideful: Aphelion was raised to outstand, to jump to a better life-style. He was raised sternly, yet his parents were sweet in the given time. Taught to never be ashamed, Aphelion grew with a mind-set of reaching higher grounds, An insult or attempt to bring him down may result in him being rather hostile.
Determined: There was no room for "I can't" in the deer's life, or else he would get a hand directed to his mouth. It may sound rather cruel, but this helped him cope with life's tasks as the man grew up, learning to never give up, for every task has a solution and an end.
Flaws Explained:
Prone to deafness: Albinos are known for loosing hearig as time passes, reason Aphelion may twist some words during messages, walk away when talked or asks the emitor to speak louder.
Prone to Blindness: Albinos are known for loosing eye-sight as time passes, reason Aphelion may bump with another person, crash against a pole or even fall off his feet. His eye-sight is no problem during the night, yet he has had problem walking around during day. He would shadow his eyes with a cap or squint his eyes.
Attention Defisis: This is a mild flaw, for the deer's bubbly personality causes him to be enthusiastic about simple things, reason he may simply walk away when talked, to admire a flower or pick a shiny stone. However, his clumsy and forgetful nature has been forgiven by his comunity, for this has never kept him from doing his job.
A bit of history:
Aphelion belonged to the grey line of low-class and mid-class, meaning he was in between them both. His parents expected the best potential of their only son, so he was raised to escalate to upper-mid-class, or high-class. Schools were not usual for the short of wallet, yet their parents did their best for their son to prosper, setting him on adult tasks even when young. Sadly, the deer's biological genes caused him a lot of troubles in his childhood, so he was not treated fairly by his own kind, or the stranger, yet at times he was praised and promoted for his appaerance. However, the moment Aphelion raised age to choose his own profession, he abandoned his household, letting asside his parent's dream of seeing him become someone of high prestigue. The deer choose to follow his own path filled with freedom and chances. His passion was running, so he ran and ran, which led him to his job. He decided to settle on a small town, cheerful as it is. All the townfolk knew him; they loved Aphelion's positive personality and devotion, accepting his silly behavior. Instead of a worker, he became a local friend, and this served to help him get away from the mistakes he made at times. "Smile and nod", was the man's motto. If anything, he is very content of the life he chose for himself, despite any injustice.
