Character Profile

Hey guys, I'm Cal Grant. I live in St. Paul, Minnesota and go to Central High School. I play football and basketball. I've got a pretty normal family, I'd say. Mother, father and sister. My dad's an intimidating guy. He's the broody, stern, norwegian type but deep down he's caring. Gad, whenever we come home with any sort of injury he'll just tell us to "spit on it". After the war, he immersed himself in work. Which happens to be operating streetcars. I swear, he's married to them or something. If he found out that I want a car he'd go crazy. My mom, on the other hand, has a soft heart and is very thoughtful. She's surprisingly good at ignoring people too. She's always worried about what dad thinks about things. Last but not least is my sister Peggy. Unlike the rest of us, she's a very open person. Jeez, does she have guts. She'll say whatever's on her mind. She's the peace maker of the family. I mean, I love my family and all but it's embarassing having a streetcar driver as a dad. I also have this thing, where I need to help the less fortunate. It doesn't matter if it's an animal or an actual person... I just need to.
