Hawthorne is the youngest member of the Keepers, second youngest of any currently-existing Keepers-universe characters. The youngest, Avery, is six months younger than him to the day. Hawthorne is the baby of the modern Keepers team, which he doesn't like. He's only three years younger than Maya - that's the same age gap as Niko and Valentina. Why should he be any different? He works hard to improve his control over his powers.

## Appearance

### Simple Appearance

Hawthorne has deep auburn hair and scattered freckles. His eyes are deep green and he has a bunch of small scars up and down his right arm from thorns. He is missing his left arm and created a replacement out of plants.

### Detailed Appearance

Hawthorne Parker stands at about 5’2” for now. His auburn hair is soft and fluffy and very thick. It just barely reaches his ears and can be partially pulled back with a hair tie. The redder tones in his hair catch the light beautifully in the sun. His face is dotted with scattered freckles, mostly concentrated on his nose and cheeks, adding a more youthful look to the already young boy. Hawthorne’s eyes are deep green and always curious. His thick, dark lashes enhance his already innocent and wide-eyed gaze. He has a few small scars up and down his right arm from the thorns he often deals with. His most noticeable feature is his left arm. Born without one, Hawthorne uses his plant powers to create a fully functional prosthetic of vines. He often allows flowers to grow on it, adding a touch of color to his appearance. He favors t-shirts and shorts most of the time and likes yellows, greens, and browns.

Hawthorne Parker is a character with a distinctive and memorable appearance, one that is both endearing and unique. Standing at a modest 5'2", his petite stature belies a resilient spirit that shines through in his overall demeanor.

His auburn hair is a true testament to nature's artistry. It is soft and fluffy, with an abundant thickness that gives it a certain volume. The hair just barely reaches his ears, allowing it to be partially pulled back when necessary, but it usually flows freely around his face. The redder tones in his hair have a captivating quality, catching the sunlight beautifully and casting a warm and inviting glow. This feature adds an element of radiance to his overall appearance.

Hawthorne's face is adorned with scattered freckles, a charming characteristic that is mostly concentrated on his nose and cheeks. These freckles add a touch of youthfulness to his already youthful appearance, making him seem perpetually boyish and approachable. His wide, innocent gaze is accentuated by his deep green eyes, which always seem to hold a spark of curiosity, as if he's constantly exploring the world around him. His thick, dark lashes further enhance the innocent and wide-eyed charm of his gaze.

Upon closer inspection, one can spot a few small scars that run up and down his right arm. These scars are the result of his encounters with thorns while dealing with plants, serving as a testament to his hands-on approach to nature. They add a touch of ruggedness to his otherwise gentle appearance.

Perhaps Hawthorne's most noticeable and intriguing feature is his left arm. He was born without one, but his resourcefulness and connection to nature have led him to a unique solution. Using his plant powers, he has created a fully functional prosthetic made of intertwining vines. The vines are not only functional but also beautiful, as he often encourages flowers to grow on them. This touch of color adds an artistic and natural element to his appearance, symbolizing his deep bond with the plant world.

In terms of clothing, Hawthorne prefers a comfortable and casual style. He can often be seen wearing t-shirts and shorts, which allow him to move freely and stay connected to nature. His color preferences reflect his affinity for the natural world, as he often chooses yellows, greens, and browns, further aligning himself with the beauty of the outdoors.
