personality: Connor is incredibly smart and he can do just about anything and be good at it. He likes school, but isn't someone who obsesses about his grades. As said before, things come pretty easy to him, so he doesn't really stress about schoolwork. It's all simple to him, really. Greek mythology is the one thing he knows just about everything about, thanks to his parents who were obsessed with it. (Hence his middle name.) Ask him a question about it, and he can answer it like that. Sometimes, usually when he's nervous or just plain bored, he will compare people to a Greek god or goddess he thinks they would most be like. It eases his nerves and his boredom, though he doesn't really know why.
He's a very athletic guy, but he hates being on actual teams. He thinks all coaches are just jerks and hates how they yell all the time at their students, plus he's not exactly competitive. He would much rather play a sport for fun with his friends on the weekends or after school.
His middle name "Eros" fits him pretty perfectly. He is an excellent matchmaker, when he wants to be (which is not very often) and when people want to find someone, they often go to Connor and ask him if they could help them out.
Connor is actually quite awkward, but only really at first. When he first meets new people (girls especially) he tends to ramble on about something that has nothing to do with anything and he says things that he regrets saying instantly. Needless to say, he doesn't always have a way with words. Once he gets past his awkwardness though, people see Connor as funny and intelligent and sometimes even a bit charming.
He's a very open person. He has no problem discussing one single aspect in his life with anyone, but he doesn't expect anyone else to be the same. He wears his heart on his sleeve and it gets him into trouble sometimes and he knows it will get him hurt, but he doesn't care. He knows that in order to find happiness, he's got to get his heart broken a few times along the way.
Connor isn't really into the "party scene" very much. He knows he can have fun without getting completely wasted all the time. But he does let loose every once in a while and drinks and hilarity generally ensues.
likes: Running, Greek mythology, writing, basketball, math, playing guitar and drums, handwritten letters, animals, making random movies with his friends, and Greek food.
dislikes: Baseball, homework, liars, when people try to pressure him to do something he doesn't want to do, watching tv (he doesn't have a good enough attention span for that), and overcrowded places.
strengths: Athletics, academia, Greek mythology, willing to see things from all points of view, excellent matchmaker, and the fact that he is not afraid to be hurt.
weaknesses: Too open sometimes, his awkward ramblings, girls that genuinely laugh at his crappy jokes, animals, and baklava.

RP sample:
Connor didn't typically go to parties. It was something he did on a rare occasion when he felt like letting loose, but it was his senior year and he knew that someday he wouldn't be able to let loose nearly as much. So, when Kayla invited him to her birthday party, he said yes instantly. Yes, they were exes, but it had to have been three years ago when they dated and they still remained friends without things being awkward---well, as un-awkward as they could get when Connor was around. He seemed to be walking awkwardness, especially lately, but he hoped he could tone it done for Kayla's party.
The thing that threw him off was the vampire theme. He didn't know a whole lot about them and wasn't really sure what to wear, either. Should he go with classic Dracula? (Too cliche, he decided.) Buy some body glitter and go as Edward Cullen? (Definitely not, he thought instantly.)
He decided on wearing those cheap plastic fangs, smoothing down his dark hair so it was completely straight, putting on some eyeliner (which took him three hours to do and he thought he looked dreadful, but he couldn't get it off when he tried to get rid of it) and then threw on some very uncomfortable black jeans and a t-shirt that said, "I Suck" in big red letters. He looked like some sort of wannabee goth kid, but he really didn't have any time to change his outfit now. Besides, this way he could be a laugh. He would be much more likely to be laughed at than have people laughing with him, but it didn't bother him. Dressing up was something he was no good at and if someone got some amusement out of his fail, he didn't mind.
When he arrived, he was astounded at how great the place looked. He looked around all wide-eyed like a kid at Christmas until he spotted Kayla. She seemed to look like she was in a bad mood, Connor couldn't help but notice, and he hoped that his awful outfit would make her laugh, or at the very least crack a tiny smile. He also noticed her sister with another girl and gave them polite smiles as he walked toward them. "Hello and happy birthday you two," he said, but it came out sounding funny because of the plastic fangs. "I vant to suck yer blood?" he said uncertainly with a sheepish grin which he cast toward Kayla. So much for not being awkward, Connor thought while he stood frozen in his place. "Sorry about my costume. It's pretty awful, I know. But it was either this or sparkles and I really can't rock that look."
