Short & heavy (roughly 5'6, 250 lbs?), with dark shades that he wears nearly all of the time with his red leather jacket. Drives a Chevy Nova with Lambourgini doors and illegal window tinting, blasting the music so loudly that every bolt in his car quivers.
A star basketball & tennis player, but he also likes to play video games - and he hates Mountain Dew. Probably a sophmore in high school, plans on becoming the first person to hike to the top of Pike's Peak with his girlfriend on his back. Loves 'splatter' films (as good ol' PJ calls them), and usually has a crowd of about 20 people around him.

I've always thought of
Estel as looking like his avatar
. About 6'4, 275 lb. with a thick, dark mustache and very intense (and I mean scary intense!) eyes. Sticks to what he knows, which is the books. He's read those more times than he's seen the films, which is a considerable number in both cases. He enjoys a pleasant game of chess, and would not be caught dead using a computer as a gaming apparatus. He works as a bouncer each night, and a very good one at that (his eyes do the work), yet has a softer side for that woman-of-his-dreams.
He used to enjoy soccer and rugby, before he had to beef up for his bouncer position. He still likes to watch those on TV, but can't very often because he sleeps quite a bit of the day. Yet he still finds time to coach a little league soccer team, and sometimes referees for other age levels.
I guess that avatar says a lot!
