(You said "detailed forms", so here's my most detailed mom friend.) Name: Arden ("Valley of the Eagle")

Age: 14 and 1/2 years

Gender: Male

Element: Earth

Appearance: Arden is a person of about average height, though he may be a few inches taller than others, though it is not really enough to make others look up to him unless they are very short. He has a round face and a more-or-less average-round build, with upturned eyes. His eyes are an interesting variation of hazel, being a light brown in the center and having blueish-greenish flecks around the edges, with bits of green so light, they could be mistaken for yellow around the border between brown and green-blue. He suffers from a slight case of astigmatism ([6]), though he wears glasses to correct it. These glasses are rectangular, mainly being black on the frames but having temples that are more tortoiseshell. The frames are also pretty thick. He has somewhat dark skin, being about the shade of milk chocolate fudge, or a bit lighter. He has a light splash of freckles across his nose, which many do not notice until they get close. Not much muscle is visible on him, and he does not know how to wield a sword all that well, though he is actually a bit stronger than he looks (not by much, however. He cannot lift a person). He has a soft, somewhat musical, kind-sounding voice, and dislikes having to raise it by much. The voice only strengthens his being the mom friend. He holds himself in a relaxed manner, and is almost never vigilant--why would he be? He just wants to be a good boi and make friends--and is easily surprised because of this. He smells suspiciously of cookies, frosting, and/or pastries, with a just a hint of mint that is still noticeable. He always seems to have a bright, welcoming, cheery expression on his face. His hair reaches about to midway down his ear, and is pretty curly. He has no bangs, though sometimes his hair will get in his face and he has to attempt to blow it away. It is dark brown-black, and he has one heck of a time trying to comb it in the morning. He prefers to wear short-sleeved shirts, even in winter, and does not seem to ever grow cold. A thin jacket is usually overtop this shirt, though sometimes it is tied around his waist. He tends to wear dark jeans/jean-shorts, and shoes that he can work in the garden with/run in. "Garden shoes" would be anything old, or rain/combat boots. These must always be dark, to hide stains, and most of the time, are one of the following: black ones that have little green, leafy ivy decorations winding around them, with the ivy spelling out "It's thyme to plant!", or are: mint-green ones dotted with purple umbrellas. He prefers tennis shoes whenever he is not in the garden, however. His socks are typically black or gray ankle-lengths. Arden also typically has an earth-toned medium green-and-brown shoulder sling bag...slung over his shoulder. Inside are emergency medical supplies (bandages, water for dehydration prevention, some cough/throat ache medicine, a shoulder sling, and some more "emergency" serious supplies, etc.), some snacks (such as granola bars), a small bag filled with smaller bags of seeds ("You never know, okay?"), and other things that nobody knows.

Personality: Arden is, in short, the mom friend, which might earn him a bit of teasing depending on the person. He is kind of an extrovert depending on his mood, and is always one for making friends. He likes using compliments because they seem to make others feel nice, and lifting moods brings a smile to his own face. A bit of a sociable one, he very much enjoys carrying on conversations if they seem to help, whether they be about something meaningful or that stupid thing his dog just did. He thinks he is a pretty good listener, if he does say so himself, and tries to solve problems head-on rather than just waiting it out, which can lead to some bad situations. He is very determined and tries his best to fight for whatever it is that he believes in, which could end nicely or in flames. He is known as the mom friend for a reason: if someone he cares about wants to do something, he will support them the whole way, even if he disagrees with it, and will congratulate them at the end. A very nurturing guy, he tends to take care of others, be it through their emotional hardships or their small cuts on the knee. He, surprisingly, actually knows a lot more about medicine than he lets on. If he freaks out over someone being hurt, you better freak out, too. Also, a lot of the herbs he knows have something to do with [insert in-universe version of Culpeper's Herbal here], so you have been warned. An extremely sympathetic and sensitive person, he tends to break down crying during sad books and other sad things (-loud, gross sobbing- "wHY DID MR. WHISKERS HAVE TO DIIIE! WAAAAAH!"), which makes him fun at parties. He trusts others possibly way too much, and it may be his own fault if he gets his heart broken by someone or something that was clearly going to hurt him. In spite of this, he is a very loyal person. He is also trying a bit too hard to please the ones he cares about, choosing to take most of the workload and overworking himself to the point of collapse. He is also extremely stubborn, and if he wants to do something, he WILL do it. Likewise, if he feels that he shouldn't do something, he WON'T do it. If something is bugging Arden, it is going to stay on his mind until it's resolved. He tends to overthink and overworry about things, especially if they concern his friends, family, or others he cares about. If this happens, he tends to crave sweets more than he already does. He tends to make his life an open book, and can't keep a secret at all, which is really, really bad in a lot of circumstances. He would, in short, not make a good spy. Most everyone, though it of course depends on who, thinks of him as hilariously innocent. This isn't true at all and he just actually is an extremely passive-aggressive person. He hates the fact that he is sometimes seen as just some child, and is trying his best to break out of the mold by trying to be like others. Hint: it's not working. He is very much an anti-bully, and if he sees someone being bullied, he won't fight the bully; he won't debate with the bully; he's probably going to grab that bully by the ear and scold them about their life choices. Then, he is going to lean in close to that person and whisper, "No one will ever believe you." One of his friends taught him that, so thank you, friend. He is also against curse words, and will (gently) smack the first person who even dares to mutter "heck". Arden is also somewhat clingy, and hates being left alone with nothing but his thoughts, so he'll seek out companionship wherever he can find it. He also has an irrational fear of deep water, heights, and the dark--not the dark in his bedroom at night, pitch-blackness where he can't see his hands in front of his face and feels blind. However, he loves nature and plants, and loves studying fossils and geography. Prehistory is a lovely subject to him. All animals--be they ugly, pretty, rude, or loving--are amazing to him, and he loves them all. He also is very much against animal abuse and kill shelters, to which he says he would "shut them all down right now". (Abusers included.) He also knows how to bake, though he doesn't do it often. Sports, on the other hand? He C A N N O T, period. Though he is't too grand on the battleground--have you seen those muscles? That's right, they don't exist--he can and will silently sabotage something that he really dislikes so that it falls apart from the inside out. And, trust me, it takes a lot to make Arden hate something or someone, so if he hates you, you're in trouble.

Password: I don't really have a least favorite. Maybe wood? I don't know, it's an element in some Chinese mythology, but I just always felt it was a bit...useless...to have wood and metal as elements. Aren't they from earth? Why not just combine them?
