Caleb

A tall, quiet guy who is intensely passionate behind his humor. He hides a huge imagination and deep philosophical web behind an athletic body and an awkward demeanor. He can be funny, but his life-of-the-party abilities are hit or miss. There's a lot going on in his head, too much sometimes, but he can focus his kaleidoscope through the lens of heroes and stories. When he's having fun, he's full of endless witticisms, puns, complicated jokes, intricate pop references, and the occasional seriously encouraging speech. He can be distant, but he will always give you his best. He has expressive brown eyes, a button nose, thick eyebrows, and straight, wild brown hair. He loves his job and makes it as fun, silly, and meaningful as possible. He has the mind of a fox with the habits and body of a wolf.

"He said what to the teacher!?! He's such a Caleb..."
"That's nonsense, but it's kind of funny... sounds like something Caleb would say."
"Who comes up with this kind of stuff? That's an idea worthy of a Caleb..."

relij

A sense of value for the "way things are done". A nostalgia for the habits of oneself or one's community in the past that creates a certain fierce loyalty to them in the present.

Relij derives its etymology from 'sacrilege' (yielding the possible alternate spelling of 'rilege'), which is an unquenchable desire to break tradition and resist doing what has been done before. Relij is its opposite: instead of viciously breaking traditions or ridiculing them, relij upholds, strengthens, and praises them.

"Marianne's got relij; she plants dahlias in the front garden every year."

"The block party is a blast every year cause everyone shows up and brings their favorite dishes, favorite people, and favorite games. The relij is strong in this town."
