There isn't anything in particular that stands out about Caden at first glance. His height is average, measuring about 5'10" with a lean, muscular build. Being a doctor means also being a bit of a health nut, so he does his daily rounds of jogging around the park and exercise routines. He's a card-carrying gym member, and yes, he drinks protein shakes. That doesn't mean he's very fond of them though, but it keeps him in shape, and his coffee addiction far outweighs his good habits. So he can be bad too. One of his most prominent physical features is probably his cheek bones. They're well-defined and they seem to give him an Adonis-like vibe. His eyes are arguably a deep hazel color, but more often than not they appear to be a dark brown. They're quite expressive from time to time, but it's often a quirk of his lips that really gives him away.
There's this mystery about him that draws other people towards him, like moths to a flame. And when he smiles, however rare, it only adds to his charm. Caden knows how to treat women and he treats them well, even if they're blood sucking vampires. He isn't partial to race when it comes to that. Maybe it's that simple fact that makes people feel compelled to trust him, sometimes telling him their deepest and darkest secrets without the aid of hypnotism or any other mind boggling psychological techniques. His doctor/patient confidentiality seems to suffice. This Irish man takes long, confident strides, but there isn't an inkling of egotism about him. After all, there is a big difference between being sure of yourself and being sure of everything. If he's wrong, he'll admit it.
His short hair is brown and when he isn't wearing his traditional white lab coat, he's usually donning collared shirts and jeans. Semi-casual is his style of choice, though he cleans up very well when the situation calls for it. Ask anyone. Being Irish means that there's always a bit of an accent in his voice, but he's lived in Mercy for so long (even if it was off and on for a good while) that he's basically Americanized. But whenever he's comfortable around someone else, little phrases like "a wee bit" will slip from his lips. No one minds, of course, and they find it part of his brooding charm. Did I mention he's broody? Oh, he's broody, usually thinking ahead or lost in thought while the rest of the world keeps moving. It's almost like he's waiting for something... let's just hope it's not reality coming to prove to him how much life sucks. Literally.
Above all, Caden is a very ambitious kind of person. He's the man with the plan, who's known what he wants to do since he was a little kid. Then a few of his patients went haywire and he realized that this town was full of more than just your average dementia or dog bites. So he's also a blood supplier to some of the creatures of the night, namely the vampire coven. So you can rule out hating them, because he is risking his neck for them if you think about. On that note, it can be argued that he's also reckless. Caden knows the consequences of his actions, but he chooses to put himself in danger's way, holding up his end of the treaty with the blood fiends. For one reason or another, he appears to be loyal to them in that sense, but he won't stand to see them harming people either.
That's why he feels it's best to supply them with blood, in hopes that innocent lives will be spared. Plus, it doesn't hurt to make a little money on the side now, does it? Yeah, so he's a little corrupt. Being a doctor doesn't pay as much as it used to when all they had to worry about were colds and diseases. He's a fan of old muscle cars and there's nothing like sharing a few pints with the fellas. Caden is friendly and approachable, usually able to strike up a conversation with ease. He was a football player in high school, the star quarterback actually, but his passion has always been being a doctor and helping people. He's compassionate about both humans and the not-so-human beings that co-exist with him in Mercy. What can I say, he's the kind of guy that's easy to like and hard to hate.
Caden Ryan Thomas was born in Dublin, Ireland. He was an only child, so he learned how to be independent and self-assured, which served him well when they moved to the states. To here, actually. He didn't remember alot about his hometown besides some flashbacks here and there, so he wanted nothing more than to leave this place and he did. It just felt like he never belonged here. So when Caden graduated from high school, he traveled back to good 'ole Ireland and it was like a breath of fresh air. He learned more about their customs, how to mix a pretty hardcore drink from his uncle who owned the local pub, and he thought that's where he belonged. Then he got a phone call about his father having a heart attack, so he returned to Mercy. Truth be told, he'd started to miss it after he left.
Ever since he was a child, Caden has always wanted to be a doctor. He was often embarrassed by jokes about how he just wanted to "play doctor," but after graduating from the University and becoming the town's doctor, those jokes seemed like distant memories. He was even engaged for a short period of time to a lovely young woman that ended up in the coroner's office, after being attacked while he was doing his night shift. Caden blames himself for not seeing it coming, for not telling her about the things that really lurk out there. But she died from a fatal stab wound, so humans are just as dangerous as any fanged creature of the night. She was even pregnant with their first child, which he discovered after doing an autopsy. It was a hard blow for the Irish gentleman, but he has moved on. Sort of.
It took many drinks though and a few moments of vulnerability that could have gotten him killed. See, he went to investigate her murder. Caden walked around town and tried to figure out what happened, what person had a reason to hate her that way, but he ended up making a treaty with the vampires. It wasn't forced. He wasn't cornered and threatened with the promise of death. In fact, he probably would have welcomed a deal like that back then. But an old patient ended up being bitten by their kind, by the vampires, and Caden offered to get him some blood, for a price. And thus began his little side business. Sometimes he finds himself believing that humans are the real monsters and that they just blame everything else.
