Clothing Style: Stephan usually wears tight wranglers, work boots and a tee-shirt. For a coat, he wears a denim jacket lined with sheepskin. Sometimes he wears his cowboy boots, but mostly they're just for show. Of course, he can't wear hats in school, but he wears a baseball cap most of the time, and a cowboy hat for show, just like his boots. Items Usually Carried: Stephan carries the usual things, wallet in his back pocket, keys, etc. Out of school, he usually wears a baseball cap from the feed store he and his father buy their horse feed from; the fact of where it's from doesn't matter to him, he just wears it for practicality. Vehicle: Steve drives a red 76' Ford 4x4 that's more mud than red. It's in need of a bath. He'll get to it. Occupation: Senior in High School, rancher History: Stephan was born in Stayton, Oregon in late summer. His father, John, was the son of a rancher from California who bred Arabian horses and beef cattle. He came to Oregon for the scenary and found himself a beautiful wife, Samantha. They only had one child, Stephan, then Samantha decided she didn't want anymore, to John's dismay. They had their own small farm where they kept cattle, chickens, grew hay and corn. Since John was quite fond of horses, they had a quarter horse which Stephan ended up taking through 4-H. Stephan went to school in Stayton and made decent enough grades. In middle school, things got a little harder, but evened out by time eigth grade came around. His parents had problems, and by time he was in middle school, his parents were sleeping seperately. During his freshman year in High School, his parents divorced. His mother ran off to "recapture her youth" and his father had total custody of Stephan. He barely passed ninth grade because of the problems at home, but he had recovered for the most part in tenth grade when he met Kirstain, who was his first serious girlfriend. They were together for most of sophomore year until she cheated on him. Junior year was a little rougher for him, since he still had to deal with her and in fact, even took her back until she dumped him for someone else. Then, to make things even worse, his horse fell ill and died. Again, he barely made it through the school year. However, in the Spring, his father had talked about moving back to California. John's father was ill and wanted his son to come back home and take over the ranch. Stephan didn't like the idea of going to California, but one last fiasco with Kirstain made him change his mind. So, after school ended, they packed up, sold their land and took a U-Haul to California. Stephan wasn't too fond of the heat, but he loved being surrounded by horses. His grandfather, who was quite rich, helped Steve buy his truck. Now, he's looking forward to a new school year and a fresh slate for his social life. Personality: Good Points: Stephan is friendly and outgoing, openminded and light hearted. He has a strong code of honor and is very respectful to women. Bad Points: Wears his heart on his sleeve Likes: Country music, horses, trucks Dislikes: Being called "hick", rap music, people who are selfish Hobbies: Horseback riding, driving Habits: Singing out of tune to the radio when he's driving or working, giving a charming smile to every woman he meets.
