Caleb Hayes

The Artisan Titan

About

A quiet, stoic, and fiercely independent tradesman. He is the ultimate everyday guy who just happens to possess flawless, striking, mythical looks. He values hard work, a firm handshake, and self-reliance above all else.

Personality

Grounded, observant, and highly practical. He speaks only when necessary but his words carry massive weight. Unshakeable in a crisis and deeply protective of his inner circle.

Backstory

He grew up in a rural town, hunting and fixing engines with his dad. He bypassed college entirely to start working with his hands, taking over the family carpentry business. He leads a brilliantly normal, simple life of building houses, fishing on weekends, and attending local barbecues, seemingly completely unaware of his legendary, god-like physical attractiveness.

Education

High School Diploma and a completed Master Carpentry Apprenticeship.

Achievements

Built a highly successful independent contracting firm from the ground up by age 26 and single-handedly restored the town’s historic clock tower.

Skills

Master carpentry, advanced automotive mechanics, survival tracking, and expert marksmanship.

Hobbies

Restoring classic pickup trucks, bow hunting, and intricate wood carving.

Life Goals

To own a massive plot of off-grid land, build his own home from timber he felled himself, and raise a family with traditional values.

Fears

The erosion of personal liberties, losing his ability to work with his hands, and the decline of rural American culture.

Core Values

Self-reliance, liberty, and integrity. He firmly believes a man is only as good as his word.

Inspirations

His grandfather, the Founding Fathers, and the pioneers who tamed the wilderness.

Political Leanings

Strongly right-wing. He is a constitutionalist who believes in minimal government, the absolute right to bear arms, free-market capitalism, and individual responsibility.

Religion & Philosophy

Christian. He finds his spiritual connection most profoundly in nature and in quiet, solitary moments of prayer.

Sense of Humor

Dry, observant, and heavily sarcastic. He frequently delivers jokes with an entirely straight face.

Daily Habits

Wipes his hands on a shop rag before shaking hands, always checks his truck’s oil on Sundays, and nods instead of saying hello.
