Noam is a character in my Year Nine Addergoole pieces, including Birthday Present. This is an excerpt from his description:

He’s even-tempered to the point where people think him phlegmatic, calm, and rarely prone to outbursts; he was a quiet child who became a quiet teenager. This leads to people under- or over-estimating his intelligence; it also leads to them under-estimating his anger when it does flare
