Personality & Traits
| General Overview | Caiden in an intelligent man. Like all Deltans, he embraces experiences without judgment and to him, everything is an experience. He is honest and believes in living transparently. It wouldn’t occur to him to hide what he does. As a psychologist, he understands the mechanisms that drive behavior though some have been harder for him to grasp than others. He’ll never be one to accept or play to a stereotype. He sees individuals. He can be subtle, is seldom heavy-handed, and finds life endlessly fascinating. He’s the one that you go to when you need to talk or a shoulder to cry on. His quarters like his office are always open. Feel free to stop on by. | |
| Strengths & Weaknesses | Strengths - Ph.D. in psychology and exopsychology - Working on a Masters in Sociology - An artist who enjoys making pen and ink drawings of people and places - Loves to sing and has a good voice - Senses are highly acute and sensitive Weaknesses - Doesn’t like to be alone. Not afraid of it but would rather there be someone else there. - Pacifist. As an empath, he feels the pain of others. Literally then, if he hurts someone else, he hurts himself as well. He doesn’t see this as a weakness though there are many others that do. - Massages … the giving, the getting … who wouldn’t? Don’t think you would? He’ll change your mind. Guaranteed. |
|
| Ambitions | To be a good spouse to his wife and a good father to his children. He is open-minded and will continue to help others. Sarilla knows this and she encourages him when needed. Likes/Dislikes Likes - New experiences and new sensations - Music and dancing. Especially the dancing. - Swimming/sailing/diving. He grew up near the water and has always loved it. - Challenges. Try being nervous in his company. He’ll find a way to get you to relax, to enjoy the experience. Its just how he’s wired. Dislikes - Stereotypes and narrow minds. People who live with the certainty that there’s no viewpoint but theirs. - While he’ll try anything once, there are some foods that he wouldn’t try again unless it was to make someone else feel comfortable. Macaroni and Cheese, for example. Just doesn’t like it. And bubble gum. Chewing something until there’s no taste and then spitting it out? Seems like such a waste of effort. Favorite Quotes “My sweet, I want to cover you Cover you however you want to be covered With orchids and emeralds With intimacy like wind kissing the pockets of the earth I want the beauty to be overwhelming I want it to seep into your skin. I want to love you into oblivion And I want you to tremble when you feel it.” “Nobody is ever too busy. If they care, they will make time.” |
