uncovering the truth;
[/font]personality; as far as mason goes, there is really only one side to his personality. it isn't that he is shallow, it's just that what you see is what you get. he acts the same whether you are his friend or a love interest. well, relatively at least. he doesn't going around feeling his friends up and making out with them, but you understand. he sticks to his guns and plays to his strong suit: his personality. overall he is a generally good person who is a lot of fun to be around, but be careful: he is a lightweight, don't leave him alone at a party for too long.
in general social settings, he is comfortable and loves participating in every conversation. he is by no means an attention hog, although he does like to get attention. who really likes being ignored anyway? actually, being ignored is one thing he hates, and even more than he hates that, he cannot stand being alone. he's fine with sleeping alone and generally being alone during the night, however, truely being alone scares him. it's just not much fun either. mason's also the kid that goes around and talks to EVERYONE. regardless of who you are, you probably know this kid.
romantically, mason is a bit more complicated. although he is bisexual, he cannot stand being romantic with guys. it's more of a sexual attraction. he doesn't mind gay people, its just he is more of a macho guy and gets a little uncomfortable around feminine men. thus, his bisexual tendancies limit him to physical encounters with guys and pretty much everything with girls. he is a rather romantic person when it comes to relationships with girls. after all, generally mason is a rather nice kid and is really genuine.

personal history; growing up in spain, mason lived a nice life in madrid. his family wasn't, but by no means were they poor. he was about six years younger than his sister, whom he grew rather close to. the whole family was actually rather close until their mother died unexpectedly when mason was four years old. this prompted the family to move to their current residence, where cristobal, raquel and mason's, father left for work all the time and forced the children to take care of each other. as the years progressed, mason and raquel grew closer together and farther apart from their father.
by the time raquel went to high school at forevermore academy, she was a pretty powerful witch, as practicing was a hobby of her's and mason's. thus, unbeknownst to the family, she joined the execution squad of her time and grew to be pretty powerful within the school. this would lead to many of the teachers knowing mason and expecting just as much out of him. however, even before high school, mason knew this would not be the case. while he was good at magic, he wasn't focused with his school work and would rather be hanging out with his friends.
whatever the case, mason knew about the games years before he probably should have, which prompted him to become as strong as he could. he had already been taking combat courses for fun, karate and such. however, he actually started focusing on those aspects of his life and grew to be a formidible foe in hand-to-hand combat. his sister, on breaks when she came home, would supplement his skill with magic instruction. thus, she was preparing her brother to survive in forevermore academy.
upon entering the academy, mason discovered that his personality aided him in fitting in with most everyone, especially those in his class. his sister had warned him that the squad consisted of all grade members, so he quickly aligned himself with the most powerful members of his class, just as a precaution. now in year two of his high school experience, he has yet to deal with being inside the games and hopes he won't have to put his skills to the test. just because he isn't focused doesn't mean that he is dumb. he knows that if he has to show his skill, it could be one of the hardest things he'd ever have to do. so, he downplayed his magic skill and hand-to-hand combat prowess in an attempt to fly under the radar...
