Trent DeWhite

 

Trent is a straight-A, determined student possessing quite an overactive imagination (a trait reminiscent of Lawrence Hodges). Much like his brother Jared, he has a tendency to overreact, and his mind tends to stray from reality, though not to the extent of making up conspiracy theories. Ultimately kind-hearted, Trent isn't afraid to tell his friends his honest viewpoint—with a bit of a snarky streak every now and then—and finds expressing his intelligence to be natural (to the point of being completely unable to pretend otherwise).

 

Trent was president of the science club at school, was a member of the school debate team, is interested in space science, and is a skilled cello player. He has recently been showing an interest in broadcasting and acting, despite once possessing a morbid fear of the microphone. Marvin Washington is his best friend, and he is close friends with Mandy Straussberg (on whom he also has a crush). He is also friends with Max Hampton and Liz Horton.

 

Family

Trent is Jared DeWhite's younger brother; both Jared and his father Stephen played fairly large roles in the Novacom saga.

It was revealed that Trent will marry Mandy Straussberg in the distant future. This is fitting, because Mandy is Odyssey Middle School's other top student. They are currently close friends, but not dating, although he has developed a crush on her. Through this marriage, his mother-in-law will be Rachel Straussberg, his father-in-law will be Stephen Straussberg, and his brother-in-law will be David Straussberg. Additionally, he will have a grandson, whose name is not given (though is mentioned on the official website as Brandon). He also has an unnamed granddaughter.

His maternal ancestors are the McAlister family, one of the core founding families of Odyssey. Abel McAlister is one of his known ancestors.
