Garrett Graham

Garrett is described as the kind of guy who dominates any environment without having to try very hard. He's tall, strong from hockey, with a defined college athlete's body—not in the "perfect" sense, but in the sense of someone who lives training and moving. His hair is described as a golden-brown, usually messy, and his eyes have an intense and provocative expression at the same time. He usually has a confident, somewhat mocking smile, the kind that makes it seem like he always knows exactly the effect he has.
His demeanor is as striking as his appearance. Garrett is naturally charismatic: he jokes, teases, flirts effortlessly, speaks confidently, and seems comfortable around anyone. But the series shows that much of this is also a mask built by the constant pressure of his life—mainly because of his complicated relationship with his father and the absurd demands placed on his hockey performance.
Behind his reputation for being popular and arrogant, he is extremely intelligent, observant, and protective of those he loves. He has a sarcastic sense of humor, enjoys provoking reactions, but pays attention to small details that almost no one notices. When he becomes attached to someone, he becomes the type of person who supports, defends, and stays with them, even without knowing how to express his feelings directly.
His energy in the series is very much that of a "tired golden boy": someone admired by everyone, but who carries too much pressure inside. He always tries to appear in control, but little by little he shows a more vulnerable, caring, and emotionally intense side.
