BASICS
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Name/Nicknames ||
Chase Dillon Smith. He has no real nickname per say, however his brother used to call him 'Brace Face Chase' when he had braces.
Age/Birthday ||
Seventeen years old with his birthday on August 21st.
Reputation ||
Because of the large size of the school that he attends, Chase has gone relatively unknown other than to be known because of his twin brother, Chance. The two of them are known, for the most part, as the troublesome twins though Chase has been dubbed the calmer out of the pair since he's been trying to distance himself a bit from his over active brother. But while that may be the case, many musicians and singers know about Chase given how often he works with the people studying those arts by either recording their voice and music, helping with them lyrics, or sitting in class with them since he generally gets lumped in with the group. He is known as the 'sweeter twin' or the one who seems to care about animals, given he times that he's helped a fallen bird that he's seen laying on the ground while he was walking to class.
Job ||
He has no job that he is currently working at, however he does do volunteer work at the local animals shelter every weekend and has been doing so throughout the time of the school year since his second semester of attending the school.

Friend(s) ||
While he gets along with just about everybody he comes into contact with, Chase isn't sure whether or not he can call a lot of them his real friends. Of course, he has made a few friends due to the connections he has made over the course of the years of him being at the school, however there doesn't seem to be one person, other than his brother, that he tends to hang around with on a regular basis.
Enemies/Rivals ||
No enemies, though he does have a few rivas within the school, such as probably the case with everyone attending the school. Really, even if he doesn't like it, he somewhat considers Chance to be a bit of a rival to him.

Relationship Status ||
Single.

APPEARANCE
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Height/Body Type ||
Chase is 5'10" and has an athletic build, though it can be seen that he may be a little more lanky than anything given his height and body mass. He's grown into himself over the years, however.
Hair color ||
Dark brown. It's generally wavy and somewhat curled with the way that it sits on the top of his head.
Eye color ||
Brown.
Clothing style ||
His clothing style has changed a bit over the past two years. Instead of trying to follow his brother around in the same clothing like they used to in the past, he's been trying to branch out to be a little more of his own person. He's found a bit of a love for button down shirts, of all different types of colors and materials, so normally he'll be seen walking around with that type of shirt on. Sometimes he'll keep it buttoned and sometimes he won't, leaving to see the shirt that he wears under it. He's taking a liking to skinny jeans, though he'll really be happy with wearing any type of jean pants or shorts if the weather permits.
Ethnicity ||
Biracial- a mix between African American and Caucasian.
Playby ||
Ronny Banks

BACKGROUND/FAMILY
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Family ||
Father – Rodger Smith – Wildlife Veterinarian || Chase is close with his father, especially given the fact that he looks up to the man for the work that he does and because of the animals that he's able to interact with. More often than not, when having a conversation with the man, Chase ask him about what ever he did for the day at the zoo, such as what animal he looked at, what he had to do, and how he did it. It can be a bit tiring speaking with Chase, Rodger thinks, but he loves it nonetheless. It's almost a little flattering to think that his son may one day want to follow along with his career path to do what he is doing, however he isn't going to hold his breath for him to become a veterinarian. Of course, it is always a possibility, he knows, however he also knows that his son has a love for producing music, and given the fact that he's going to a high school designed to help him get more into the business, he figures that his son will get more into that.
But regardless of that fact, when ever the twins are back home, Rodger finds himself spending more time with Chase when he is around, given how Chance has no care for animals and doesn't hardly want to spend time at home any longer. He loves it nonetheless, and he's just happy that he was able to give his sons the opportunity to do what they love to help further their life in the future if possible.

Mother – Kelsey Smith – High School Music Teacher || Chase adores his mother; she is the number one woman in his life, after all, and he respects her to the highest extent. Still, he may be a little closer to his father than anything, but Chase loves Kelsey nonetheless and normally will ask for her advice on something if he can't go to his dad or brother about it. There's always just this calming aurora around the woman that he can't help fall into. But not only that, Kelsey was the one who introduced the world of music to her two boys. It had been a fleeting thing really, something that she only wanted to get them into because she loves music as much as she does, however after realizing that they had a talent for it, she couldn't help but want to delve her sons more into it. She quickly took notice that they each had their own differences with the world, however, seeing as Chase seemed more into the actual music with the instruments while Chance seemed to be more into the singing aspect of it all.
It only surprised her when they decided to take things a little more seriously, and after they made the decision that they wanted to take it to the next level, she helped them out with it.
Brother - Chance Smith - Attends Metric High School || Despite the fact that Chance is older than Chase by five minutes, the two still have a close bond with one another, something that will likely never change. Always have they done just about everything together, and always have they found themselves in some sort of trouble with one another. The two of them are alike in many ways, but, then again, they're also different. Chance in considered to be the more hyper of the two while Chase seems to be the more, rational thinking one of the two, but regardless of that the two of them have their own quirks. More often than not the two will wrestle with one another to try and prove who is better, given the competitive nature that the two have, especially towards one another.
Even if they are close, however, Chase has been trying to distance himself from his brother a little. The way that Chase is most known around the school is because of his brother and never his own person, and he wants to get away from that because he is his own person and he is not just 'Chance's twin brother'. The feat is a little hard seeing as they live together once again going into their senior, but as Chase has been maturing over the years the usual antics that they used to find themselves getting into have become bothersome while Chance still finds them amusing and wants to continue with the acts. It's caused a little bit of a rift between the two, but they are still close.

Backstory ||
Chase was the second born out of the pair that his mother had birth. He had been the bigger of the two that came out of the woman, however it didn't take long for his twin brother, Chance, to catch up with him as far as weight and length goes. But, overall, throughout the course of his life Chase has been happy and has had a relatively good life. With always having a companion around to run around with and play with, when he was a child he was hardly bored, despite the fact that his parents were often off doing work, or their father rather, throughout the day while they were stuck with a baby sitter after their mother went back to work. But when he was younger he was a little more on the shy side; when around his parents and around large groups of people, he would usually duck behind his father in an attempt to try and hide himself so that he wouldn't have to talk with anyone, however by the time it was time for him to head to school, that little bit of his personality changed, and he soon started to follow along with his brothers troubling antics and often caused a bit of trouble himself. He's always been a curious boy though; always running from one point and then moving onto another when something caught his interest.
Throughout elementary and middle school, Chase followed his brother around and caused all sorts of mischief. More often than not if one of them was sent to the principals office the other wasn't too far behind for one reason or another, and while neither of them had ever been suspended because of something they did, they both have had their fair share of detention slips. But things started to change for Chase after they entered high school. While he still found it amusing and fun all in the same right to mess around with his brother in class and while he found it amusing to switch places with his brother to pull one over on their teachers and classmates, he started taking schooling a little more seriously then. His change in attitude only happened when he realized that going into high school would set the bar for what he would be able to do in college, something that worried him and bothered him to the point where, a few times, he had found himself unable to sleep because of his own worries. Yes, he had his music, but that was beginning to change as well once they entered high school; Chase found his love for it, and he found that when he and Chance were together they were a good pair for it.
When they were younger they sung together in their church choir after their mother got them into it. They were compliments often and given high praise for the sounds of their voices, and as the years went on the dynamics of what they were doing started to change. Chase was introduced to a few instruments through his mother after listening to her play the guitar after a while, asking if he could learn and play it as well. The same could be said for the piano, and while there were other instruments that he had tried to play (and failed), those were and still are the two main instruments that he plays.
It wasn't long after entering into high school that he figured out that he could change music when ever he wanted to, and to record it as well. He learned more about the practice and tried it out for himself, making beats and putting them together in a program that he downloaded on his computer one day while searching through google for what he wanted to do and what he wanted to know. And he found that he had a talent for it. He was shortly after introduced to the world of music producing, and at one point at the time he declared that that was what he was going to do in the future after hearing that Chance wanted to be a singer one day in his life when he got older. It was then that Chase got the idea that, if they went through this path together, they could work together in the future with him being the producer and Chance being the singer. It could work out!
They found about Metric of the Arts High School at the end of the freshman year, and after begging their parents they were able to audition to the school, the two of them combining forces with one another to create the best performance that they could, to which worked given how they had been accepted to the school, and the next year they were sent off.
Throughout his time in Metric, Chase has enjoyed his time. He's learned so much and made so many good connections that could help him in the future! But even so, going into his senior year, he's a little nervous because of the decision he's going to have to make at the end of the year; to further the career path to becoming a music producer for future artist, or to become a veterinarian, something that he has also dreamed about doing. He loves animals, and even though music is a big part of his life he still takes the time to research things about different species and of the new medical advances that they had made in the field. He just wants to help animals, but he also doesn't want to give up on his dreams of being a producer. Oh, the choices! This year, he felt, wasn't going to be a fun one.
