Neil Josten - Exhausted by life on the run, Neil is forced to adjust to his role as Fox. With similarly traumatized teammates and his sudden emergence into the spotlight, he finds himself conflicted with his desire to remain hidden and alone. Ultimately, his love for Exie proves stronger than his fear of his father.

Appearance

Neil is described as a short, athletic young man. In the past, Neil dyes his hair black and wears brown contacts to disguise his identity and blend in. His hair is red and his natural eye color is a cool shade of blue. It has been noted several times that he greatly resembles his father, to the point that he cannot even look at his reflection without feeling sick. Neil has extensive scars on his body, resulting from abuse and injuries inflicted on him by his father, as well as from his life on the run. By the end, he gains additional scars, as well as burn marks on his left cheekbone and arms. His wardrobe consists mostly of worn, basic clothing items such as T-shirts, jeans, and sneakers. He does not have much of a sense of style, valuing practicality above all else, choosing clothes based on their ability to hide his scars and make him blend in with a crowd, becoming a "gray shadow".

Character

Neil is perceptive, which is necessary for life on the run. Neil distrusts middle-aged men because they remind him of his father, whom he fears. This is why Coach Wymack initially scares him, even though he promises Neil that he will never hurt him. Neil distrusts other people. He rejects their offers of help and tries to solve every problem on his own, which makes him withdrawn and secretive. Neil also tries to be in control of the situation at all times. Neil is almost as obsessed with Exie, even though he has had to stay away from it for most of his life. This obsession drives him to risk everything to play for the Foxes. He does not back away from a fight, although as "Neil Josten" he would not start one. Neil has a fiery temper, which he got from his father.

General information

Neil has the key to the Fox Stadium. Sometimes he goes to the library to use the computer. Neil loves to run and is the fastest player in the 1st class of the Exy, running a mile in four minutes. Because he was enrolled so late, Neal missed the early registration period for athletes and had to register with other freshmen in August. At first, Neil decided to study Spanish, as languages are useful on the run, and he was not going to stay in Palmetto, planning to go to Mexico if he considered his position too risky to continue staying here. Later, in his second year, Neil changes his major to mathematical sciences. He's good at picking locks. He inherited his skills from his mother. Neil speaks French and German. To explain why he speaks French, he lies to Nicky that his mother is French, but he doesn't mention German at all. Neil does not take drugs or drink alcohol, fearing that in a state of intoxication he might tell something about himself. As a result, he has a very low tolerance for them. One day, Neil was hitchhiking from New Mexico to Phoenix with various truckers. He pretended to be a sociologist conducting a survey. Neil does not like sweets and prefers fruits to vegetables. Neil's favorite color is gray. Because of his life on the run, Neil had never been to the Exy Stadium on the night of a game until he joined the Foxes. Neil doesn't like baseball-he told the agent at the hospital in the king's Entourage about it. Due to the extensive scars on his torso, Neil does not change clothes or take a shower in front of other people. To put on his gear, he goes into a toilet stall, changing there. Neil smokes sometimes, but more often he lights a cigarette and lets it burn out on its own. The smell of smoke reminds him of his mother, which is both soothing and painful.
