[/b] Being physically fit is very important in the Moon family and so, like every other member of his large family, Dresden does what he can to stay fit. But not only does he do it out of requirement by his family, he enjoys it. There's nothing better than a five mile jog each morning before school to really get the blood pumping and the brain working. When he's not goofing around or doing school work, chances are he's off somewhere doing something pertaining to physical fitness. It's almost an obsession of his.

LIKES !
FOOD ! Due to the amount of time Des spends exerting himself, he has to replace that energy someway, right? As a result, he puts away food for three people on a daily basis, literally. His eating periods usually take up to two hours due to the amount he eats, but he's a growing boy with an out of control metabolism. But he loves foods of all kinds and varieties. He's willing to try anything at least once, because he might just like it, but he tends to stick mostly to basics: hamburgers, hot dogs, barbeque and such. Of course, he tries to stay balanced, eating plenty fruits and vegetables.
OUTDOORS ! There's nothing Dresden loves more than the great outdoors. Nature, period. He tends to play a lot of sports with his friends and his brothers, and rarely spends time inside. He doesn't deal that much with any form of technology, preferring trees and rocks and rivers to anything electronical. He likes to scale tall trees, leap over boulders, dive down waterfalls and anything else that requires extreme physical activity. Guess you could say he's also a bit of an adrenaline junkie.
[/ul]DISLIKES !
BULLIES ! For a guy his size, which is smaller than average, Dresden's no stranger to bullies. Even within his own family, despite his stocky stature, his cousins see fit to tease him about his size. Though Dresden's capable of laughing it off and moving on, it still bothers him immensely, and perhaps that's why he tries twice as hard at everything he does to make up for it. He can't stand people who pick on others because they're different or not with the 'in-crowd', and Dresden's glad he doesn't fall into that category - not if it means taunting people for who they are.
STEREOTYPES ! If someone calls him an 'Indian' one more time, Dresden's sure he's going to gouge their eyes out. The correct term would be Native American, and while Dresden's proud of his heritage and the hardcore traditionalists that are his grandparents, he doesn't like how people assume he knows secret rain dances or goes on quests to 'find himself'. His family indeed knows a lot about history, remedies, and other useful information that's been key to their survival, but that's about it. He doesn't run around half-clothed wearing animal pelts and scalping people, and he doesn't like when people assume he does.
[/ul]STRENGTHS !
OPTIMISM ! There's rarely a moment when Des isn't upbeat about something. Life, thus far, for him has been a bit rocky, but Des likes to focus on the ups more than the downs. There's so much to life, so much to live for, and given his upbringings, he's developed an apprecation for Mother Earth and all that she embodies. There's always a silver lining within every storm cloud, is what Des believes. Some people don't like that he's always smiling but he can't help himself. Besides, some things you can't change, so why not be positive about the rest?
[/ul]WEAKNESSES !
GIRLS ! Every boy's fantasy is to have a beautiful girl by their side, is it not? Well, something along those lines. Dresden can't speak for all guys, but he knows that the male population can become putty in the hands of the right girl. He's no different. A lot of time, he gets distracted by the pretty girls, and Dresden's never shy about making his presence known to them. He's been shot down a couple of times, but that never slows him down. If a pretty girl asks him nicely to do something, chances are he'll do it. Which isn't always a good thing.

Dresden Gabriel Moon was born on January 1st, 1975 to Cheyenne and Daniel Moon, and though he was technically their son, the entire tribe accepted him as one. Dresden wasn't any different from most babies: he cried when he was hungry, or needed to be changed. He was cheerful and especially nosy, so much so that once he learned to crawl, then walk, someone constantly had to keep an eye out for him to keep him from wandering into anything dangerous.
Growing up, Dresden was a well-behaved child. He respected his parents and his elders, and did chores and other things required of all the younger members of the tribe. While he stayed in San Francisco, he was constantly visiting his other relatives who preferred the peace and solidarity of the back country. It seemed nature itself constantly called to him, luring him there amongst its trees and rivers, where he would find himself lost blissfully for hours at a time. His parents hardly ever had to wonder where he was, but were constantly worried that one day he would seriously hurt him. Though, a lot of his time was spent with his older cousins. They spent most of their afternoons engaging in physical contests of strength, and while Dresden was the smallest, he certainly wasn't the weakest. Dresden grew to love his cousins and adopt their raucous, carefree attitude about life.
One particular cousin that Dresden grew very fond of was Delora Moon. She was his age, born in the same year, and that in itself gave them reason to bond, being how her brothers and sisters were a good two-three years older than them. They spent time alone, wandering the forests, observing different plants and animals and talking about their lives. Dresden shared his love of nature, and the things he was interested in. He also listened to Delora ramble about which boys she was into, and the type of family she wanted. She quickly became more than a cousin to him. She became a sister. Until that one fateful day she lost her life. They were running along the edge of a bluff. It was a dare. Dresden taunted her about being scared, and Delora wanted to prove she wasn't. It was fun, until she lost her footing and fell. Des wasn't fast enough to catch her and well... the rest he's buried deep down in his memory. After the fall, he stopped spending so much time around them, as that branch of the family blamed him for her death. And it was his fault.
Years later, the memory of Delora still fresh on his mind, Dresden began attending high school. But it wasn't a typical high school. By this time, he knew of his powers and his parents didn't want to send him to a normal school, where something bad could happen. What better place than a controlled environment with kids just like him? Dresden grew to love magic school, and he quickly made friends with people. He found people with the same abilities like himself, and some powers that blew his mind. There were teachers who empathized and desired to teach them all control. It was unlike any environment he had ever been in before. It was in his two years of magic school that Dresden learned to control his abilities, and also that he wasn't alone. There were kids just like him with the same struggles, and it was much easier when you had a couple of friends to lean on or be encouraged by. Sometimes, he preferred his solitude, but for the most part he was happy being surrounded by so many supportive people.
Now, Dresden is a sophomore in Magic School. Classes are tougher, and he's made more friends and even a few non-friends, but that's life for him. He only has two years before he graduates and hits the real world, so Des wants to take advantage of this portion of his life, where he's basically responsibility free. When he's not doing homework or goofing off with friends, sometimes he brings himself to visit the site where Delora fell, listening and wondering and wishing things could be different. Since then, some of the tribe have forgiven him but there are still many that treat him like a stranger. Still, he has his older cousins, and his parents. Life can only get better, right? At least, that's what Dresden hopes.
