| Personality: Keaton is a workaholic and very ambitious. He’s always had a drive to do the best he can with everything he tries and he rarely leaves anything unfinished. Most people would use the word ‘smart’ to describe him and the fact that he graduated high school at age 15 seems to back that up. It can be a bit hard to get through to him sometimes due to the fact that he tends to look at the world a bit differently from other people, but he’s aware of that fact and tries to work on being more approachable.
Family: parents Gary & Martha deceased, Harris Spencer (uncle; alive), Tina Spencer (aunt; alive), Gabriel Spencer (younger brother; alive)
History: Keaton was born one year before his brother, Gabriel. Their parents died in a car accident when Keaton was 4 and Gabriel 3. The two boys were in the car with their parents when a drunk driver hit them head-on with his truck. Their parents died instantly, but the two boys survived with minimal injuries.
Their uncle and aunt immediately took the boys in and raised them as their own. They had no kids of their own, so they were more than happy to welcome Keaton and Gabriel into their family. They became a pretty stable little family, and the boys were taught good morals.
Keaton always showed an aptitude for learning and seemed able to remember everything he heard and saw. He started school a year early and along the way he ended up skipping two grades. He was teased a lot growing up, being looked on as geeky and a bookworm, but Keaton seemed to be in a bit of his own world, mostly ignoring what they said and feeling content with having his younger brother as his best friend.
At age 12, Keaton started High School and found himself an oddity among his older classmates. Still, he continued to make excellent grades and found his small group of friends among the other ‘smart kids’. One of his friends from High School, Timothy Ward, eventually Co-founded their company WaSp.
At 15, Keaton graduated High School with excellent grades and went on to get a scholarship to Harvard Business School. Although he remained close with his brother, their lives were taking somewhat different directions and they lost that initial closeness they’d had back in school.
At age 18, he and Timothy started the company they’d been talking about for years. The company initially started small and while they dreamed big, neither of them was really sure they’d make it. But after four years of hard work and thanks to some revolutionary ideas, they’ve managed to clear a place for themselves on the market and have been predicted to become one of the main competitors on the market within the next few years.
Right after his 22nd birthday, Keaton graduated from Harvard with a Ph.D. in Information Technology and Management. Since then, he’s been working pretty much non-stop with his and Timothy’s company, enjoying this success they’ve had, but still not satisfied with where they are in the game.
Strengths: he’s smart and knows how to use this fact, he’s good at talking people into things, he’s got a good heart even if it sometimes becomes lost in everything else he has going on all the time.
Weaknesses: he’s not a great fighter, he can get lost in his own world sometimes and completely miss what’s going on around him
Other: he’s got a decent amount of money and although he doesn’t flaunt it, he also doesn’t try to hide it too much. He drives a somewhat fancy car and wear expensive suits, but partly because it’s expected of him. He’s not extremely materialistic and not very greedy. He’s worked hard for everything he has and is proud of what he’s accomplished.
