Personality:

Ezekiel is quite the quirky guy when it comes down to it, perhaps the most stoic person somebody can stumble upon but he isn't the grumpy that people assume him to be at first glance. He is quite the careful soul around people around him, as well as the very close people, as his ability can be hazardous and harmful and the last thing he'd want to do is acidentally trigger it on somebody. This bug, in spite of being a emotionless thing, enjoys doing silly actions to throw people off and hopefully bring smiles to them as he feels really satisfied doing so. He's pretty self-conscious of his physcial state and the hazard he is so he isn't the happiest thing in the bunch when it comes to himself but he tries not to express it as much when he does activities or anything. Very easily gets nervous around people so he tends to be very distant although if you get onto his good side and dont scare him too much he'll gladly do all of those silly things that I mentioned before.

 History:

Ezekiel didnt live such a troublesome life, at least in his opinion. He lived along with his grandmother, due to the fact that his parents were usually busy and his older siblings were out for university creating their own life as well, as a kid he couldn't do much to help them other than to focuse on his studies . His mother was am ariados, lawyer and very engaged with her job to be with the family. His father a soclipede worked in the cargo at the port of Driftveil. Both without enough time in their hands to take care of the young little bug they left him with the grandmother, a scolipede as well. A lot of the family was nearby luckly, however it still felt pretty lonesome without them at home and when they were they were either too tired or too busy still to have any bonding time with him. It was rather bitter to him, even with his loving grandmother he couldn't help but feel utter bitterness in the beginning.

He went to school normally though being the nerdy looking kind of kid he was he didnt have it so easy there. Unfortunantely he was the victim of bullying mainly because he was the little twerp of the class, or so they called him. Rather weak and blind he'd get pushed around, kicked about, taken his food from and even get punched by the bigger kids. Of course his grandma worried for him every time he came home to a bruised face or a disheaveled appearance but he wouldn't open up about whatever that happened, instead he'd find excuses like he fell or something, too afraid to say anything thinking his abusers would get at him for it. It went day after day for too long and the grandmother's concern only grew...she had it one day when he came back and decided she'd teach little ezekiel how to fend for himself at least. If the school wasnt concerned enough about their students she surely would be. He upon being told he was going to be trained was more fascinated by the idea than anything, since he'd finally perhaps...be able to do something for himself. 

She trained him day after day, though at the start it was rough due to the fact that not all the techniques he picked them up so quick. He'd end up still being mocked and thrown about by his bullies. But soon enough he'd finally get the hang of it with her, and after much strenuous training he had learned well and surprisingly evolved. The grandmother was so proud of him and he proved himself of that pride when he finally fended off his bullies and anybody else that approached him negatively. Ezekiel was so happy that he had done something like this and for his grandmother to have taught him this? He was very grateful. His school life ran a bit more easier afterwards, though the occassional fight would happen but as long as it didnt turn into a bit circle fight the grandmother supposed he could fend himself well enough. Even then she kept on training with him just to be completely sure.

Life moved on and he was already finishing his middle school years, a bit overgrown as he had managed to become a scolipede from the training and fights he had from the earlier years. Everything was going fine really for him, he didnt mind his parents absence too much as long as he had his grandmother with him. In fact he liked it more when she was over at the house rather than the parents 'being there'. However that happiness didnt really last long for him as his beloved grandmother passed away a few months later of his graduation from middle school. He was devastated all throughout summer, there was nothing to pick him up. His parents werent really there to console him and the only times they were it was useless words that didnt really work to him. At times he knew he was going to be alone at home, he trotted his way over to his neighboring cousin at the tie sometimes and over the bridge that united Driftvile with Nibasa city back and forth just to get his mind off things. Soon enough when he entered back to school he was a completely different person to what everybody knew, he tried recomposing himself during those trots on the bridge sometimes still. Sure he had his kind of jokesy personality still but what he had lost the was smile to everybody or joy of doing so. All he did by that point was focuse on his studies and well work for himself to gain some money of his own at a local floral shop in town. He then went to college after finishing highschool like any other kid would though he never set himself a goal in mind for a course to take at first. So he ended up not liking his first year in the college of Driftvil and decided to drop out of it. Perhaps the courses there werent the ones he was looking for so instead he researched upon other options he could have and stumbled upon Desta college. It had a wide range of variety for him enough to pick from something that perhaps he liked better than the university in Driftveil and so he decided to go there along with the help of his parents but they warned him that if he dropped out of it this time he wouldn't get another chance.
