DONTTELL: Zeke used to be a "bad boy," someone who loved parties and cared about nothing more than having a good time.
He tries very hard to convince himself that the life of a monk is the life he wants.
SCAREDOF: Going back to the way he was, death, fire
WANTTO: Become an official monk and live that way until he dies
STRENGTHS: Kind, fun, good-humored, easygoing, responsible
WEAKNESSES: Uptight, set in his ways
TALENTS: Charismatic, ambitious
ABOUTME: Zeke is an aspiring monk, who decided to become that way after a close call with death. He lives and acts as a monk should - celibate, living in a monastery, doing his best to think of nothing but God. He feels he needs to do this because he spent so much of his life partying and not caring, and now he feels like he needs to make up for it. But this isn't really who he is.

Zeke is really a very fun person to be around. He still loves parties, no matter how much he tries not to. He used to be a bad guy who cared about little more than himself and having a good time, but he's realized that there is much more to life than just caring about yourself. He really isn't cut out for the life of a monk, and deep down, that isn't what he wants. But he is very set in his decision, and sees it as an obligation to God for saving his life.

GOODMEMORY: Zeke's best memory was waking up in the hospital after the fire, sore, but alive. A pastor from a church other than his own came to talk to him, and Zeke felt like he had seen the light for the first time.
BADMEMORY: Zeke's worst memory was when his friend's house quickly caught fire, sending everyone into a frenzy. Zeke had a hard time finding his way out, and suffered severe burns. It was a close call with death, and the most frightening thing to ever happen to him.
HISTORY: Ezekiel David Valmont is the oldest child of Derrick and Mayella Valmont. He has only one other sibling, Thomas, who is seven years younger than him.

When Zeke was a child, he loved to play. He hated school and sometimes caused a bit of trouble, and his parents cracked down hard on him. His strong spirit began fighting back against them when he became a preteen, and a rift began to form between Zeke and his parents.

By the time Zeke was in high school, he hated his parents, and they were losing patience with him. He only cared about the parties his friends threw, and having a good time. He was arrested multiple times, along with his friends, for things like underage drinking, DUI's, and drug use or possession. It broke his mother's heart, but only made his father more and more angry. What was worse was that Thomas, then about ten years old, wanted to live the exciting life of his older brother. He followed Zeke everywhere, no matter how horrible Zeke was to him to try and get him to go away.

When he was eighteen, Zeke began to date a girl named Deanna Wigget. She was sexy and fun, and interesting enough to keep Zeke's attention for more than a night or two. She got pregnant, got scared, and told her parents, who told Zeke's parents before Zeke himself found out. For Derrick Valmont, this was the unpardonable sin. He made Zeke pack up his things that very night and leave the house, telling him that he was no longer his son.

Zeke hid his hurt by celebrating his new freedom. He moved in with a friend, and the two of them threw some of the most awesome parties that their friends had ever been to. One night, drunk out of their minds and playing with fireworks, the friends set off a big one that quickly turned into a deadly situation. The firework careened out of control and flew through the kitchen window, where there was alcohol everywhere. The firework exploded, and the alcohol ignited.

Zeke was still in the house, and had a hard time getting out. By the time he did, his shirt was on fire, and he was too drunk to remember to stop, drop, and roll. He screamed and ran for his life, but being intoxicated actually saved him. He tripped and fell onto his stomach, muffling the fire and putting it out, though not before it had burned his chest and part of his stomach.

Zeke was taken to the hospital for treatment, where a pastor from a nearby church visited him. He told Zeke that God had saved his life, and explained to him why it was important for him to give back to God with the rest of his life. Zeke decided that the best way to do this was to give up all earthly pleasures and become a monk. He left his friends, whom he believed were bad influences, and even the whole country of England to start over entirely new in America.

Now, two years later, Zeke is living at Holy Cross Monastery in West Park, NY, and is very close to being able to take his vows to officially become a monk.
