Mitch Sarculo

Mitch Sarculo is a character in Thirlcrest Academy. He is the former second in command of the Peacekeepers.
==Appearance==
Mitch is a 18 year old senior, standing at 6'0" and weighing roughly 188lbs. He has dark green eyes and a long, dark brown mullet with a soul patch. Mitch's right eye is notably fake, having lost it during a brutal period of peacekeeping where Mitch had his eye taken in an act of revenge due to him doing the same thing to another student.
Mitch commonly sports his black denim jacket over a white tucked in dress shirt. Alongside this he will usually be seen wearing his usual khakis and boots.
==Character Information==
When Mitch first arrived at TCA he held vastly different morals to which he holds now. Initially, Mitch saw the rampant bullying throughout the school and thought it was none of his business, believing he'd have a much more comfortable time sticking to the sidelines. This was all until he became better friends with Ben Brangman, his virtuous morals of doing the right thing rubbing off on him over time. This changed Mitch from someone who only went along with the creation of Peacekeepers to make money, to someone who genuinely believes in protecting and avenging undeserving victims of violence and bullying.
Over his time as a Peacekeeper, his attitude to dealing with threats shifted drastically. Nearer the beginning, Mitch seeked to represent the 'peace' of peacekeeping, believing at the time he should be able to achieve his goals without needing to enter conflicts himself. Over time, this ideology changed. Mitch realised in order to keep others safe, they had to fight fire with fire, adopting a more common approach of showing strength rather than diplomacy.
In recent times, Mitch roams the campus a non-clique. Though while not being a member of the Peacekeepers, his past values are still very much present in his decision making and interactions with other students. While he may not be actively protecting the weak like he used to, he still puts his priorities towards taking on hostile individuals. He doesn't view himself in high regard however, beliving fighting to be the only thing he's truly good for, even if it means putting his own health at risk to protect others.
==Relationships==
=== Ben Brangman | Close friend ===
One of Mitch's oldest friends, Ben was one of the first people Mitch met when he came to the academy. The two were quick to become friends, having eachothers backs as non-cliques before the two formed the Peacekeepers in response to rampant bullying they had been seeing school-wide. Mitch looks up to Ben, his influence being the reason Mitch's priorities switched from avoiding conflicts to wanting to protect students out of his new belief of doing the right thing.
=== Ricky Sarculo | Brother ===
Mitch's younger brother. The two, while looking somewhat similar in appearance, used to have vastly differing morals- more clearly apparent with Ricky as a member of the Autoshop Club and Mitch as a Peacekeeper. Despite these differences, Mitch didn't view Ricky in low regard, even coming to him for support and favours when it came to assisting in conflicts. In recent times, Mitch finds himself proud of his brother after learning he had left his previous club and joined with the Peacekeepers, a decision he admires and respects.
