Travis Vanderscheldon

''"Someday we'll run into each other again, I know it. Maybe I'll be older and smarter and just plain better. If that happens, that's when I'll deserve you. But now, at this moment, you can't hook your boat to mine, because I'm liable to sink us both." - Travis Vanderscheldon''

Character Analysis
When Travis was human he was a mix between serious and joking. Out of his five friends he was one who could have made it into the popular crowd but chose friends over the social crowd. He is kind and friendly towards people. He loved football but was a coward. He had a terrible feel of being in front of the public with all eyes on him. He tried many times to overcome this fear but nothing had worked for him. He would constantly ditch schools whenever he would have to present anything for the class usually giving him bad grades. As Travis becomes a demon he begins to act more devilish and sneaky. He always has the same expression with narrow eyes and a smirk. No one knows whether he tells the truth or a lie at times and eventually becomes evil. He only cares about himself and is very self-centered. He will kill or hurt anyone in his way. Except, he has a weakness for small children as he likes the way their mind works. He is intrigued on how pure and innocent children are. Although he is a demon and acts like one, he hates to be judged and only seen as that.
