don't wanna live as an untold story
rather go out in a blaze of glory
Hawthorne is young and feral and reckless and charming, in equal measures. He's kind of a jerk but he soothes the wounds he inflicts with the sort of casual charm that some folks would kill for. He's just terribly charismatic, with his gold-edged eyes and his easy smile, and he doesn't have to work hard to make people like him. He's an adrenaline junkie, has been since he was a kid, so he likes to chase whatever thrills he can get his hands on, whether they're jobs or ships or people. He got into the bounty hunter business young but never legitimately; he'd planned to do it all legally, register his ship and hire a nice regular crew and take menial jobs for the rest of a mostly boring life. But after his first job, when he got shot at and first met Dr. Xerxes and made a ton of money for bringing in a whole pack of criminals, he changed his mind. He lives fast and hard, makes friends like they're going out of style and can charm basically anyone put in front of him. Hawthorne laughs a lot and is usually smirking about something, looking self-satisfied and distinguished, his second set of eyes slitted with pleasure. (Those eyes only open when he's truly, genuinely mad about something; it's the one trademark for his temper, when those eyelids start twitching.)
Unfortunately for Hawthorne's many friends, he's not especially loyal to folks who haven't strong armed him into it (like his current crew) and he's greedy as all hell so if he needs to trade in a friend for a favor he's liable to do it. His moral compass is a little wonky and tends to lean whatever direction he needs to go, but those few friends he truly considers his he'll do a lot for. He really enjoys buying people presents and they're always extremely well thought out; it's one of the few things Hawthorne will put his full focus into doing. He's nearly the tallest person on the Vibe Check at 6'3", with Perihelion topping him by a single inch (much to Hawthorne's eternal annoyance). He's widely known for his suave personality but the one person Hawthorne has never fully managed to charm is Honey. Hawthorne trips up when he's around Honey; for the first time anyone else has ever seen he gets a little stupid and stuttery and dumb and Honey has no tolerance for it. The crew teases him about it mercilessly, because everyone figured those two would get on like peanut butter and jelly, but they remain at a strange amiable standoff, where they are friends but Honey insults him and Hawthorne sulks.
