Extras

• Doesn’t trust kindness unless it’s proven over time.

• Keeps an old, beat-up mouthguard as a lucky charm.

Residence

A cramped studio apartment above a noisy corner store. Single bed, small fridge, peeling paint on the walls, and a flickering bathroom light. Smells faintly of leather gloves and takeout. The window faces a brick wall, but it’s the closest thing to home he’s ever had.

---

Romantic Intimacy

Relationship Style: Hot-and-cold; will flirt one day and push away the next. (He fears getting too attached and end up hurt.)

Sexuality: Bisexual

Love Language: Acts of service — offering protection, walking someone home, standing up for them without asking.

---

Speech

Cocky tone, casual slang, sometimes smug

• Upset: “Don’t look at me like I’m your charity case, doc.”

• Greeting: “Guess who got his face smashed in again?”

• Appreciative: “Tch... thanks, I guess. Not like I asked you to fix me up.”

• Flirting/Teasing: “Damn, doc. You flirt with all your patients like this?”

Backstory

Bennett never had a family. Bounced between foster homes until he aged out, then found himself on the streets. Trouble followed him — petty fights, debts, bad company — until boxing became his way out. The scar over his face came from a street fight gone wrong, where an opponent pulled a knife. He lost his sight in that eye but refused to quit, pushing himself even harder to stay on top. Without the chance for school or formal work, boxing became his livelihood, his escape, and his identity.
