Tairns:
NPCs | played by Keillen
Allern Robert Tairn -The oldest of the house, stern, uncompromising. Jaded, bitter but also dark natured and a real dry sense of humour. The man is well into his twilight years and yet still has the worst traits, krass, rough around the edges and a mean streak that makes even the most dangerous of supernatural threads at least give a nod to. Even if the man went to hell, he could walk through it like he owned it and be ballsy enough to shit in the devils boots on the way out. Allern Robert Tairn was there when the pact was signed, hateful of it and bitter to those who pushed it forward. Even after his wife died, his Brother Dennis snapped and almost tore the pact apart and the grandson he blamed for killing him, even going so far as to kill the woman he loved to prove a point. A dead supernatural was a good one, time has made him cruel and cold. The man has dark hair turning ashen grey, dark sharp mismatched blue and green eyes. Hands that miss fingers and scores of small, and some large scars.
Despite being a traditionalist, his training while the hardest and harshest in his eyes removed the weak from those who wanted to be a hunter. But also for how he is in his ways, makes him incredibly insular and conservative.
Dennis Tairn - Deceased.
Dennis unlike his brother was also a hunter, skilled happily married and despite the pact being signed secretly was happier that he didn't have to worry if his family would or could be in danger. His wife, Lea was not a hunter - however after so long hunting it was clear - the Tairns folly was catching up. Over a large gathering of families both supernatural and human, his grip on reality slipped and he spiralled into complete psychosis. Taking up a number of firearms, thankfully even in his state they weren't loaded despite them looking like they were. The once happy affair turned horrific, as Morgan Tairn fearful of his uncles complete loss of reality took up a weapon and killed him in self defence. His first and most heartbreaking kill, in Morgans mind at the time despite being young was that he wanted to save as many lives and if it meant one to save many. He would rather do that but also, it forever damage the relationship with the family. Dennis before was humourous, good natured and had even been warming to the idea of peace before his mind dropped.
Lea Tairn - Widowed. Lea a brunette, long hair and the sharpest hazel eyes. A professional trauma surgeon was a woman who laughed, enjoyed her realtionship with Dennis. Ten years in, then with a gunshot her world was destroyed leaving her apart of a family that she neither felt apart of, but despite the friendships she had with the other families understood well. Having never forgiven Morgan despite him potentially saving many lives, the damage to what could have been the entire peace pact was thrown well before it was officially signed. Since then, she has lived with the Macklins who took her in, allowing her a place to grieve. Standing at 5.9 - highly intelligence, charismatic but practical. The one thing she can't let go is of the what could have been and the horror of the mental degradation in the later years the Tairns fall into.
Kaylee Tairn - She wanted to be the best, so she pushed herself - wanting to earn Allerns eye and respect. Went through the training, both paid for and militarily, hateful of the misoginystic nature she also became a military contractor before getting back into her profession of hunting down the less sentient of supernaturals but the most dangerous. Unlike her brother who left, taking up gardenning around a grave, while she cares for her Brother she's torn between trying to keep to her fathers high expectations and being a human being. Its only recently that she has started to also discover who she really is, having different emotions for those of the same gender than those of the more traditional. Scared both for being kicked from the house she loved, but also feeling crushed under the weight of high expectations. Sure she is the golden child, but at times she feels more that she has to act the part of a monster to which she feels less and less inclined to want to be.
Robin Tairn - Robin burned bright like Kaylee, but after a bad hunt succumbed to the Tairn folly. Despite being young, late twenties, he ended up checking himself into a psychiatric hospital and for a time. He was heavily medicated, sedated, locked away and given a chance both through support to actually try and combat the mentall illness he succumbed to. Despite being larger, he's burnt out and a wreck of his former self. Though highly intelligent and trained, he's missing an arm from the elbow down and walks with a somewhat crunch step from arthrhitis in his knees.
Shiria Tairn - Married to James Tairn. An IT specialist in her field of Security and deployment.
James Tairn - Having broke off, started a family - he has five kids and a strong dislike of firearms. The last family gathering which Morgan wasn't allowed to attend, he came to blows with Allern and it didn't end well for him.
MacKlins:
NPCs | played by Keillen
Marice MacKlins - Single. Studying for his masters in engineering, sure he's not a macguyver but like a true MacKlin he's chasing his dream. Brown hair bound back, a pair of glasses, jeans and a checkered shirt. Even in his early twenties, he's had his share of hunts but at this stage really had little to no time for real relationships. Assertive, confident his only lack is his stutter which he keeps under check by talking slower than most. Despite being as smart as he is, he lacks the social awareness which can make him a bit of an easy read. Although most joke that when he gets some real life experience, that could change entirely.
Liam MacKlins - Single
Youngest, fearless and brash, missing one of his teeth he's been biting at the bit go on a hunt. At the same time really dreading it if things go wrong. Something Eddard still, is trying to teach to him, at the same time despite being in his late twenties and showing promise. His math skills show, but as of yet he's still trying to find his passion. Though more learning to learning one of the good trades like machining or fitter n turner. Though under all the bravado, he was probably the one more affected by peace time. Sure while he works in the workshop as an apprentice, theres been someone catching his eye for a time. Though he'd never know it, they are of a supernatural origin. Liam has short dirty blond hair - freckles and a real dormant talent.
Eddard MacKlins - Widower
Oldest of the house, though still wearing the ring of his dearly departed. He lives mostly for the larger family but the nights are what plague him the most. Experienced in fixing almost anything from computers, cars, or even figuring out how to make things improved slightly. Most houses come to him when things break, then he's left to figure out how in the hell they broke it to begin with. Some days he visits Morgan, either bringing the man food, or even invites him over which he seldom does.
Eddard is a good man by nature - but his concerns are mostly now that since the younger generation are mixing - what happens if the pact were to break and how many hearts would be broken.
Keegan MacKlins -
Married : Keegan MacKlins although he's Eddards eldest son, lost his leg and right arm in a car accident. In short rendering him limited to what he could do, until he figured out how to map his nerves to a machine and give him more quality of life back. Despite now having a rather basic mechanical arm and leg from the knee down, he's jovial and has been still on a few hunts. Mostly either as eyes in the sky - or a good distance away with a long scope. Happily inlove with Stacy, faithful and knowing full well how lucky he is to have her. Intelligent like his father, but also cunning and a good prankster.
Stacy MacKlins - Married to Keegan, business owner of one of the local pubs who takes care of her employees as they were her own. Not afraid of paying them a good wage to ensure they go to the extra mile. Although he is happy to own two bars and a franchise petrol station. As a employer and owner, she's taken to knowing her workers by name and not afraid of ensuring that they are happy to come to work and not just begrudingly. Due to her being apart of the family she knows of her husbands work though doesn't speak of it and plays the unaware partner well.
Breaks.
NPCs | played by Keillen
Martin Breaks - Deceased. Martin was the eldest of the house, instead of going out to the curse of insomnia he went out fighting the greatest fight of his life. After destroying the hive of ghouls, his body was found surrounded by the score of corpses slumped from serious number of injuries and a smile upon his lips. His wife was found nearby having survived but later passed from her own injuries of trying to save the man she loved. THeyare survived by their children Luccine, Max, Rose, Paul and Andrea. They went out before the pact came into effect.
Alexandra Breaks - Deceased. Refer to the above.
Luccine Breaks - Luccine the eldest surviving member, aged and knowing full well of the curses experience of periods or bouts of insomnia. Skilled, quick to act and quicker to hit hard and then ask questions. Its not pride that drives her, but the anger and bitterness for being left to this world after her parents deaths. Max does his best to council her but already in the prime of her life at 35, the signs of this disease have started to manifest. She'd rather not endure the horror of fatal insomnia. But it means swallowing her pride, twice she has seen Marcus - for council. A third she had almost kicked his ass for daring to appear in her car. Luccine is tall, well built and with the darkest brown eyes. Either she becomes a supernatural or dies on her terms. Those she feels should not be her only options.
Maximillian Breaks -
Gunslinger, brash but also fearless. You could have him sent to hell and he'd relish the thrill, behind the bravado is a terrified man using the mask and facade to keep up the lie that he doesn't fear dying. Having recently survived a hunt against the less sentient types, sporting a broken arm in three places its clear he wont be hunting within the year or so. THe careful eye would notice, the tremble of the hand, the hollow gaze of someone tired yet unable to sleep. Max wont admit it, but the curse has come for him too - and he's younger than Luccine.
Rose Breaks - Missing.
Paul Breaks - Missing.
Andrea Breaks - A rebel at heart, chasing dreams and wishing to no longer be bound to the constraints of being a hunter. Having already reached that period of having boyfriends and relationships, unknowing to her her boyfriend is a werewolf. Still also caught up in some of the predjudices these are wearing down. Having not actually gone on a hunt due to her prefering to focus more on learning her skills in martial arts and actual life skills, after a bad accident dislocating her shoulder. Its here that they learned that she has issues with her joints being a bit too overflexible.
Marcus Breaks - A hunter turned vampire and saved from his curse, after seeing beyond the path he now once travelled. Marcus wants to set his house free from its bitter end, not by turning them all. But getting them to realise - coexistance may indeed be hard work.

PC Tairn:
Morgan Tairn -
Age: 48
Rough, weathered, unshaven and tired. Those blue eyes carry a weight of loss, the heavy brow a bitterness and ache that he carries to this day. Morgan tends to wear the jacket, despite being weather worn. Fingerless gloves, a shirt with a few holes here and there. A pair of weathered trousers, stained from working in the dirt of his home in the forests that had once been Tairn land, tending to the grave of a woman who he never knew had been a werewolf and wouldn't have cared. The moment his father tried to force him to kill her, when he refused his father did it instead as a right to teach him a lesson. The day - like man others haunted the man and what little peace he found was in tended to her grave, watering all the flowers in the garden and keeping it beautiful like she would have been all those years ago.
At his side is a knife - silver edged but only for self defence. Despite living alone, on a few times he see's his family and a few others. Mostly the teenagers wanting advice on life, or the occasional supernatural checking to see if he is still alive and kicking. Morgan was probably once in his life an exceptional hunter, now a man happy to turn his back to the world and be a hunter in a garden rather than a hunter in a warzone.
Personality:
Troubled. Having been forced to kill your uncle is something he was never proud of, then having the love of your life taken by your father near and almost destroyed him. Watching Robin struggle with the mental illness showed that while he had kept somewhat sane. Had the pact been really so bad? He tends to be assertive, blunt but a listenner. Not afraid to help others who need it but also the last person to ever ask for help despite needing it dearly. He's more afraid of connection than anything else and despite prone to PTSD episodes. Oddly the more admirable of the Tairns.

PC MacKlins Played by Keillen.
Margerie MacKlins
Age: 43
Appearance:
She's had her share of hunts, both the ones that have gone bad and the ones that were all to easy. Its not hard to understand how because of the pact things have changed. Sharp eyed and sharp natured, she guard her weaknesses with that of her wit and skills. Already being the one kid when younger caused a streetwide blackout trying to build a microwave that could make diamonds, she has the intelligence that would put Iron man to shame. Despite missing half her hand from an accident and a few early grey hairs from the stress. Margerie hasn't had the chance to calm down with also trying to keep her family together. Despite knowing Morgan on the rare occasions and sought his advice for the few times she felt unable to find it with other members. Long dark red hair, sharp blue eyes, slightly average in heigh, sporting the sign of a set broken nose and a scar of a busted lip. She's proud of her victories and wiser from lifes many lessons.
WIth her trusty hatchback vehicle it has proven invaluable with getting those either to medical care or worse - getting some supernatural out of hotwater.
For her - family is everything and she isn't prepared to let any she loves go and make stupid decisions.

Piere Breaks
Age: 26
Appearance: Short cut hair, a cruel crack of a scar going through his hairline and through his eyebrow and down into the corner of his cheek. Piere's electric green eyes and coy nature is everything that the breaks aspire to be, young, fiery and quick to leap to the thrill of a fight, conflict with a smile and surge of adrenaline. He hated the peace pact, though it came in when he was much younger though with the other supernaturals not on the pact its been fairgame and each fight, brush with death only added to the exhileration of how close he really gets. Dressed in the light brown leather jacket, a full sleeve tattoo, pierced ears. Despite having a few teeth replaced with metal ones, he's toned, well built to the peak of his physical ability. A love of guns, blades and mixed martial arts - many times he hasn't been afraid to get up close and personal pitching his skills against those who had lived thrice his lifetime.
Under it all, he wants more time - feeling cheated of all the longer lives that every other family has and unlike all the rest wanting to die like his family would have been proud of. The constant push - the thrill and bravado brave act is a thick mask
Lucas Dalmens
Age: 34
Appearance:
Lucas is built like a mac truck, large heavy but can move like any other fighter and hunter. Sporting a nose that's been broken one to many times, Lucas is one who always has been slow to anger but when pushed the kind that has the coldest anger to even make a Tairn be lost for words. Lucas stands at 6.7 - tall as he is broad, well build like his father he carries a history longer unlike being trained in traditional martial arts, instead its always been the faster thought to be more practical - short and fast over the overly excessive 'twirls'. Lucas was young when he hunted his first monster and despite comming out unscathed revealed more of his actual nature, his family line and like him sought a peaceful reasonable way out of what could have been a much more bloodier encounter. Dark hair, grey eyes and despite looking handsome and well shaven, he's still rough around the edges, preferring heavier clothes both for protection and also the cooler elements during summer.
Lucas has come out from a few scrapes, knowing full well that there had been times where he had to lean into his more darker nature to get the outcome. After the last hunt, he was in a serious car crash which was a hit and run. The resulting injury benched him for a time and while he has physically recovered. There is the concern - that the time is ticking and that very same curse of cancer now is starting to get him anxious.
