His lean physique began to show the early signs of athleticism, though still with the softness of a typcial young child. His sandy blonde hair, which had become thicker and more manageable, was often kept slicked back out of his face, a style he seemed to naturally adopt even at this young age. This hairstyle gave him a polished look that was unusual for someone so young, but it suited him well and became a signature part of his appearance.

==== BEFORE ENROLLMENT Appearance (11-17) ====
From ages 11 to 17, Colton underwent significant changes, both in his appearance and behavior, as he navigated the tumultuous period of adolescence. At age 11, Colton already displayed the tall, lean physique that would define him as an adult. His sandy blonde hair remained slicked back, and his pearlescent light blue eyes retained their captivating brightness. As he approached his teenage years, however, Colton began to develop a rebellious streak.
Around age 13, Colton's life took a dramatic turn. He and his twin brother Caesar were already familiar faces in their respective modeling worlds—Colton for his mother’s fashion company and Caesar for their father’s sports brand. However, during an important runway show, Colton was attacked by Roman Grimes, a rival whose family had long-standing animosity with the Deveros. The attack left Colton with an X-shaped scar below his left eye, a permanent reminder of the violent encounter and a symbol of the deep-seated rivalry. This incident generated significant controversy and temporarily derailed Colton's modeling career. In the aftermath of the attack, Colton's rebellious behavior intensified. He began experimenting with his appearance, getting multiple ear piercings and adopting a more edgy, punk-inspired style. His hair, once neatly slicked back, was often styled in a deliberately messy fashion, and his clothing choices reflected his defiant attitude. This new look, combined with his scar, added a rugged element to his already striking appearance.
Colton's behavior also became more erratic and manipulative. He started acting out more frequently, challenging authority and engaging in risky behaviors. His natural charm and good looks, which had always been assets, now became tools for manipulation. He learned to read people, understanding their desires and weaknesses, and used this knowledge to influence situations to his advantage. This manipulative streak became a way for Colton to exert control in a world where he often felt pressured by expectations and competition. Despite his rebellious phase, Colton continued to model, now with a defiant edge that intrigued and shocked the fashion world. He embraced his new look, incorporating the scar and his rebellious persona into his runway appearances. His defiant style resonated with a different segment of the fashion industry, allowing him to maintain his career despite the controversy. Colton's parents, deeply concerned about his behavior and the direction his life was taking, decided to intervene. They enrolled him in Thirlcrest Academy, a prestigious boarding school known for its strict discipline and focus on character development. The hope was that the structured environment would help Colton regain his footing and steer him back toward a more positive path. They were particularly worried because Colton had been modeling in a rebellious style that clashed with the image they wanted for their company.
While Colton worked as a runway model for his mother's fashion company, his twin brother Caesar worked as a sports model for their father's company. This division of roles often highlighted the differences between the two brothers, with Caesar embodying the disciplined, athletic image their father valued, and Colton representing a more rebellious, artistic side. 
At Thirlcrest Academy, Colton knew he'd have to face the challenge of reconciling his rebellious nature with the expectations placed upon him. The school provided a structured environment that aimed to curb his defiant behavior and help him rediscover his potential. Despite the strict rules, Colton's creative spirit and unique style continued to shine through. He quickly learned the school's social hierarchy and used his charm and intelligence to influence his peers and even some teachers, often bending the rules without getting caught. Throughout these years however, Colton's manipulative skills would become more refined. He would feign obedience and progress to satisfy the administration and his parents while secretly maintaining his rebellious activities. He used his looks and charm to form alliances with influential students, ensuring he had a support network to fall back on when needed.
Despite the school's efforts to change him, Colton's time at Thirlcrest Academy only sharpened his ability to navigate and manipulate complex social environments. His manipulative nature, combined with his striking appearance and rebellious style, made him a formidable presence both on and off the runway, hinting at the complex and powerful individual he would become in adulthood.
==== AFTER ENROLLMENT Appearance (Act 1 - "Welcome to Hell, Devero" Quote By Roman Grimes) ====
At Thirlcrest Academy, Colton initially presented himself as the charismatic and stylish individual he had always been. Arriving at the prestigious boarding school, Colton stood out with his tall, lean physique and striking features. His sandy blonde hair was often styled neatly, and he made a habit of wearing shades on his head, adding to his effortlessly cool demeanor. Colton and his twin brother Caesar, despite their different personalities, wore matching school uniforms, a symbol of their shared heritage and familial ties. The uniforms, typically consisting of crisp shirts, trousers, and sweaters, highlighted their sharp features and athletic builds. Colton's rebellious streak was subtly evident in his uniform, often accessorized with a personal touch that set him apart, like the shades perched atop his head.
In the early days at Thirlcrest, Colton often wore a smile on his face, exuding confidence and charm. He quickly navigated the school's social hierarchy, using his manipulative skills to build alliances and influence his peers and even some of the faculty. Despite the school's strict discipline, Colton's natural charm and intelligence allowed him to bend the rules without getting caught, maintaining his rebellious edge. However, Colton's demeanor began to change when he encountered Roman Grimes again. The sight of his old rival reignited the deep-seated animosity and trauma from their previous encounter, where Roman had left him with an X-shaped scar below his left eye. This reencounter had a profound impact on Colton, triggering a transformation in his appearance and behavior.
As the tension with Roman grew, Colton's appearance became more subdued and serious. He began wearing reading glasses, a stark contrast to the shades he used to sport. The glasses gave him a more studious and introspective look, reflecting the internal changes he was undergoing. He also started wearing the school cardigan or polo more frequently, adopting a more conservative style that was in line with the school's dress code. Colton's once confident and charming smile was replaced by a perpetually angry look. His eyes, once bright and captivating, now carried a hardened, intense gaze. A toothpick often hung from his mouth, adding to his tough, brooding persona. The toothpick became a small act of rebellion, a way for Colton to maintain a semblance of his defiant nature in the face of growing internal conflict.
The reencounter with Roman not only altered Colton's appearance but also deepened his internal struggle. His manipulative tendencies intensified as he sought ways to outmaneuver Roman and regain control over his life. The rivalry pushed Colton to become more calculating and strategic, using his intelligence and charm to navigate the complex social dynamics at Thirlcrest.
Despite the school's efforts to provide a structured environment, Colton's rebellious spirit and manipulative nature continued to shape his interactions. The presence of Roman served as a constant reminder of past trauma and unresolved conflicts, fueling his anger and determination. As Colton adapted to these challenges, his outward appearance reflected the turbulent emotions within, marking a significant period of growth and transformation in his young life.
