Hair Color: Black and blue.
Eye Color: Grey-blue.
Notable Features: Tongue pierced; tattoo around left forearm signifying his issue with drugs in the past.
Play-By: Josh Ramsay.
General Description: Tall and skinny, this boy definitely has a punk rocker feel to him, even now. Skinny jeans and converse are most widely found in his wardrobe as well as an abundance of t-shirts and dress shirts. Vest, ties, hats, and jackets are common means for accessorizing. Every once in a while, Alaric is known to put on a little eyeliner, but never at the work place. He tends to look a bit younger than he is sometimes, but that might have a bit to do with his personality. His dark/bright hair falls directly into his line of sight most of the times and is often seen flicking or brushing it out of the way. (Yes, the guy was an emo boy in high school). Ric has his tongue pierced and can sometimes be seen clenching and unclenching it between his teeth while he's thinking. That or he's tapping his fingers on something.

Strengths: Piano, guitar, singing, music in general, helping people.
Weaknesses: Math, speaking (sometimes gets all flustered and can't think of what he's wanting to say), his history.
Fears: Driving in the rain, losing someone he cares about, losing a student.
General Description: It's been stated by some that Alaric might have a bit of a Peter Pan complex seeing as this almost-thirty year old still has no problem goofing off and acting like a kid. He loves to smile and laugh, and he loves being able to make other people smile and laugh. He's a far cry from the silent, depressed boy that walked in the doors of St. Helena's when he was a freshman. Ric is fairly open with people, having no problems telling them he was in St. Helena's for four years (drug addiction, self harm, and an eating disorder -bulimia), though he barely talks about the reasoning why.

Of course, this child-at-heart knows when it is time to be an adult. When he walks into the school building, he's like a different person. He's still the general sweet and caring guy he always is, but he's more calm and professional. He hates seeing all these kids and he refuses to ever call them "troubled". The majority of them just need someone to care, to help, to sincerely reach a hand out to them without doing it for the paycheck. That's why Ric is here.[/justify][/blockquote][/size]

History: Ah, April 1st is a day Alaric Tomas Jester's parents will never forget. It's the day that brought their little bundle of screaming joy into the world. Of course it only got better from there. The Jester family was heavily into the music business, Mr. Jester himself being the head of a record label. It came as no surprise then, that at a young age Ric followed in his sibling's footsteps and learned to play guitar and piano. It wasn't something he really enjoyed at that time, but little did he know, by the time he got to high school, music would be his lifeline.

Life was as peaceful and calm as it could be in the Jester household with Mr. and Mrs. Jester fighting at least once a day over this and that, but Ric and his siblings learned to cope and tune it out, focusing instead on their hobbies. Ricky boy didn't spend too much time at home as he got older, wanting to escape the constant battle for the shelter of his friends' houses that became more like home. Even when away from the fighting and the yelling, Ric's growing insomnia wouldn't let him sleep.

As a young teen, he and his friends experimented with all types of drugs and alcohol. Alaric tried some of the heavier stuff, and as could be expected, he ended up addicted. The boy spent a good part of his high school career on some sort of drug, though even he himself couldn't tell you what had all been in his system at the time.

It was when Alaric was busted at a party with a heavy amount of drugs on his person that he was arrested. It was his freshman year in high school and his parents options were juvie or St. Helena's. Two days later, Alaric was entering the school building, angry and going through painful withdrawal symptoms already. Life was going to be hell and he knew it.

Ric refused to completely get clean, though, and kept using even while in the school. That was, of course, until the day he got the phone call in his junior year. One of his friends from home had died of an overdose. That hit something heavily into his drug clouded brain. With the help of a counselor that Ric will never forget, the boy turned his life around.

He went through a great deal of pain as he quit cold turkey, but he was determined. The boy that had died had be the smartest and the best guy in their group. Alaric hated that he had to go while himself just continued wasting away. He was going to make his friend proud, though. He swore it.

Clean, happier, and no longer self-harming, Alaric's last few months in the school were actually quite blissful. Once high school was completed, Ric barely able to graduate while most of his friends didn't, the boy enrolled in a local college where he decided to take the time to learn more about his favorite subject: music. Ric was pretty undecided what he was going to do through his first year of schooling. However, that summer he volunteered at an arts camp and he found that he rather enjoyed being able to teach people the things he was good at and he knew well. That wasn't quite enough, though, and Ric continued on with heavy schooling to become a counselor as well, feeling the desire to help kids that are like he was.

So, it was decided, Alaric Jester would become a teacher. Of course, not many places would be willing to hire a teacher with blue hair. Ric refused to change his appearance, though, and that would severely limit where he would get hired at. Of course, there was one place he figured would love to hire him, so he applied to St. Helena's, his old high school. There were many fond and not so fond memories of the place, but one thing was for sure, Ric was ready for this. [/justify][/blockquote][/size]
