Spike is Tess's boyfriend in The Last New Start. He initially doesn't know that she is being babied, but may become a caregiver to some degree later.
He lives on the south side of Raybridge, far from Palmerston.
Personality
Spike uses humour as a coping mechanism when he is worried. He can put on a few different accents, and will often address a stressful situation as if he is some character archetype. His favourites include confused Russian tourist, angry celebrity chef, and stoic mafia boss. As long as people are laughing with him, he doesn't worry so much about the actual problem.
He's very resilient, and has got used to looking after himself. Not particularly good at sports but has high stamina. He is also good with words; knowing how to put people off balance.
Family
- Shawna - (mother) Worries about Spike when he's not at home
- Duke - (stepfather) Married Shawna 6 years ago. Calls her 'princess', and if he thinks she's upset he'll take it out on Spike regardless of the reason
- Walt - (possibly a stepbrother?) A drunk, prone to random acts of violence if he doesn't get what he wants. Curses constantly.
- Brad - (younger brother, possibly illegitimate?) When he's home alone, Spike is scared of getting under his feet and makes an excuse to be elsewhere. This is probably because a day home alone always involves some kind of narcotics and he can be very unpredictable
- Nik - (younger half-brother) 6yo
When Spike's father died, the family had very different coping mechanisms. Older brother Brad decided that his dad had 'failed' and went off the rails, drinking and stealing. Shawna couldn't cope with trying get him to behave, and turned to drugs. A year later she married her dealer, Duke Cale. Theoretically the kids took their stepfather's surname, but Spike refuses to use it.
Appearance
Spike is a little scruffy. He has dark hair that looks something like a mop, cut unevenly. He has been trying to grow a beard, but can't really manage more than a little fluff. He's a year younger than Tess, so has 2 years of high school left. His uniform is worn but still usable; he seems to only have 2 shirts, one of which has a small burn on the collar which he refuses to tell anyone how it happened.
