Biography
Hola! I'm Arcadio Escobar. I'm the son of the sweeper. There's a legend in my hometown that repeats itself every so often. An evil priest murdered a man and buried him with a chest. One day, after the priest died, the sweeper wanted to find the treasure to provide him with money. He followed the bells to the treasure and started to dig, but then the hands of the murdered man grabbed him. He ran away from the skeleton, but lost the treasure. He didn't get the treasure back, but with the two coins he had, he was able to buy a new shovel and send his eldest son to school.

My family life is pretty quiet. My older brother has gone to a good school and made a name for himself, while my older sisters have gotten jobs too. Being the youngest in my family, I didn't think there was anything in store for me until I got a letter from Ever After High telling me to come here. I then found out that I am set to be the next sweeper in The Bells.

Ever After High is quite far from where I live. My home is located on the coast of Sinaloa - definitely far away. I like Ever After High, though. It has lots of nice people and lots of interesting classes. I especially like Storytelling 101 where I get to share ghost stories with the other students. I try to be athletically involved too - I'm on the swim team. Living near the coast makes swimming come in handy.

I don't know if I want to repeat my father's story. I don't like the thought of a skeleton coming out to jump at me. I get antsy whenever I go into cemeteries, and a skeleton jumping out at me is the last thing I want. Still, an adventure might not be so bad. At least I'll get out alive. I think I'm going to stay neutral in this whole destiny conflict.

I was diagnosed with autism a few years ago. Students can tell because I bite my hand a lot. My right index finger is all chewed up. It's hard for me to wear gloves because of it. I do manage, but it still comes out when I'm nervous.
