GENERAL BIOGRAPHYSteve Harrington was born in 1966 to Mr. and Mrs. Harrington in the small town of Hawkins, Indiana. His father owned an unknown business and the family was relatively wealthy, lived in a large house with a backyard swimming pool (near the woods and the Hawkins Lab). Mr. Harrington had a poor relationship with his son (Steve refers to him as a "grade A asshole") and without any siblings around and his parents often travelling out of state, the boy often found himself seeking the company of others. Steve began attending Hawkins High School around 1981, eventually befriending Tommy Hagan and Carol Perkins who he hung out with most of the time. His growing popularity landed him many girlfriends and quite some recognition from his peers which he later on realized meant nothing.Self-centered with a thirst for attention, Steve has held up to his jock title up until he began dating Nancy Wheeler; someone whom he had fallen in love with and still states to be his first real love up to this day: the same person who helped him realize that his high school persona wasn’t worth being a jerk for if he could instead develop meaningful relationships with those who actually gave a damn about him.When Nancy's best friend, Barbara Holland, suddenly disappeared, she became distant and Steve thought she was cheating on him with the school outcast, Jonathan Byers (someone whom he had been on bad terms with at the time, picking on the poor teen with the encouragement of his peers). Following a few ignorant actions (which he still regrets to this day), Steve had a change of heart, told his friends off, and set out to make things right. By coincidence, and with some hesitation, he ended up heroically saving the day (fighting the Demogorgon) and a few months later even reconciled with his girlfriend (or so he thought at the time).

ENNEGRAM - TYPE TWO
Twos are empathetic, sincere, and warm-hearted. They are friendly, generous, and self-sacrificing, but can also be sentimental, flattering, and people-pleasing. They are well-meaning and driven to be close to others, but can slip into doing things for others in order to be needed. They typically have problems with possessiveness and with acknowledging their own needs. At their Best: unselfish and altruistic, they have unconditional love for others.
TAURUS SUN,
The drive to establish and maintain a sense of security is important with Taureans: they are learning about security, and what it means to be able to maintain a stable sense of self. Typical sun in Taurus traits include being hard-headed, down-to-earth, tenacious, reliable, loyal, and sensual. In friendship, they display grace, charm and good humour. In love, they are reliable and constant. They tend to be characterized by warmth, kindness and generosity – seeking to share the good things in life they have found with others.
CANCER ASCENDANT,
Cancer Risings are continuously moving through various emotions and especially influenced by the feelings of others. This means that when they’re paying attention to something, they’re entirely immersed in that subject. They are true sweethearts who genuinely want to see their loved ones feel good and look good. If they notice a friend in need, they’ll carve out time and make sure that they show up. At their best, Cancer Risings are looking for a safe space, someone who allows them to put their guard down and simply relax.
LEO MOON,
Lunar Leos require lots and lots of love and care in order to function well in the world. When they feel slighted, these people can be dramatic in their emotional displays. When their pride has been hurt, they are given to big scenes and sulking. This rarely happens in public, however. Lunar Leos are far too concerned about their image to make splashy scenes outside the comfort of their own homes. Lunar Leos are often personally popular folk who are valued for their integrity and strong sense of justice.

ORIGINAL
Follows the events of the original series. If it matters, please specify if you would like a S1/S2/S3 or S4 version of Steve as it can be crucial for how I portray his character.
TEXAS CHAINSAW
After defeating the Mind Flayer & threats of the Upside Down Steve has been offered the opportunity to attend the University of Texas as a compensation for the horrors he's suffered. Still haunted by the events that took place in his hometown he was convinced to leave his previous life behind and pursue a new one- a fresh start, or at least that's what it was supposed to be. Only now the monsters he faces are more like people than the ones he sees in his nightmares. (POST S4, MULTIPLE VERSES)
UNTIL DAWN
Who would have thought that a trip to the snowy mountains could lead to a night of horrors filled with death & despair...?

FOG REALMS
During a night in late autumn, the brunette was on his way home when a thick fog made it impossible for him to drive any further. Hearing the ominous whispers of the dark, Steve considered turning back at first, though the distant cries for help- cries of people he knew and cared for drew him into the depths of the unknown. Agitated, the young man pursued the source of the noise with little to no regard for his own well-being, ignoring all the alarming signs that could’ve saved him from the Entity’s call.
