Inactive = (Story Ended) Busy Nights
Name: Ryun Torleif (Rye-un / Tor-Leaf)
Race: Fallen Angel
Hair: Sandy Brown
Height: 6'1
Weight: 198lbs
Eyes: Green
Age: 34
Personality: Ryun is a very calm person, showing great interest in even the most simplistic of things. He appreciates the world around him, accepting its faults with its merits. While he is not arrogant, he does not lack confidence and is not afraid to speak his mind directly when necessary. He lacks interest in drinking, wealth, religion, politics, and drugs of any kind. He does however show avid enthusiasm for other aspects of life from history to modern events. One of his most enjoyable pastimes is to simply watch people interact with one another. He can be quite honest as he does not fear the repercussions of criticism and judgment from others.

Appearance: Ryun has a beefy build, while muscular it is mostly undefined and lacks that bodybuilder definition that most desire. His voice holds a hint of a Scandinavian accent, but it is not quite right, as if he is speaking with drawn-out vowels better suited to the 13th century or movies. A well-groomed beard covers his strong jawline and lowered eyebrows can often give him the appearance that he is scowling. He has long sandy brown hair that is just past his shoulders but tends to keep it pulled back in a bun.

Typically, Ryun will wear loose-fitting clothing, common T-shirts, and various regular jackets. Jeans are his preferred pants though he is not afraid to wear shorts if the weather is right. He prefers worker boots or something similar and avoids shoes when possible. The most noteworthy thing about his attire is how common it is.

History

As a heavenly warrior of God, Ryun had no name or knowledge of the passage of time. He was trained to fight and when not training stood to watch over the southern path. After decades of this, he was called to aid in the defeat of a risen demon who was attempting to start an open conflict that would have caused a genocide. With a contingent of warriors, they proceeded to the earth, which was the first time Ryun had ever seen it.

While they searched, he learned of the people that inhabited this earth and the supernaturals along with them. His fascination only grew when he saw their freedom and various personalities. From the simplest of tasks to the most difficult, they all seemed to treat things differently, individually.

When the task finished and he was returned to his prior state of life he was unable to shake the things he had beheld and was warned many times not to think about these things. They were not part of their task and therefore not something worth thinking about. His curiosity however peaked and he left his post on the southern path and returned to the earth. Learning more about them and the pleasures they could partake in. This included the flavors of foods to the carnal desires to even the most basics of things like sleep. Shortly after he was cast out from the Heavenly Host and cursed to walk among the mortals.

What seemed like a short time for Ryun was in fact quite a long time for earth. His first visit in the 13th century which he later found out by researching history books and recalling what he had seen when searching for the demon. To his fall which took place in the 20th century, things had dramatically changed. It absolutely amazed him how quickly humans adapted and grew. He harbored no ill will toward the Heavenly Host for his banishment as he was completely fascinated by the creatures of this world.

As years passed, he learned quickly spending months in solitude without sleep, to help understand what he missed. Even after all this time, there were still things that he did not know. He eagerly explored new things in the beginning, these were based around the morality that creatures placed on actions. Such as what was right and what was wrong, however, in the later years, this became more about the different ways of life and how people lived.

Being immune to poisons he disliked drinking outside of social settings as any poison to the body would fail to work which included smoking, drugs, drinking, and a wide range of exotic foods that would otherwise be quite deadly. He realized that partaking in these substances without restraint drew unnatural interest in him, so he stopped doing it.

Ryun was particularly curious about the control creatures had over one another without the use of heavenly gifts. To inspire obedience, fear, loyalty, even love and other such emotions were exhilarating to him. This led him to brothels and other forms of debauchery like Dungeons. This kink was of particular interest and he maintains this private sin to this day.

He is not ignorant of the world or the people in it. He quickly learned that his method of combat while superior was reckless as Angels have no concept of self-preservation. Because of this, he continued to study various forms of fighting throughout the years. With his increased speed and strength, he was well suited to security work and found this satisfactory to his living needs. Ryun does however try to avoid open combat whenever possible as he is not immune to physical death. Because of this he has not joined any military groups and does not quickly rush into a fight.

Spoiler: Behind the scenes

Name: Trent Chesterfield
Height: 6'0
Weight: 185lbs
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Short/Wavey Light Brown
Age: 31

Appearance: Trent has an athletic build but is not overly defined in his muscle. His deep voice has a gruff overtone to it as if he smokes too much (Which he does not). A well-trimmed beard runs along the edges of his jawline. One of the most noticeable features about Trent is his intense stare and inability or outright refusal to smile. Even when relaxing he looks stern or like he is deep in thought.

He typically dresses in business attire which consists of designer style suits like Canali, Emporio Armani, and some Brioni as well. He has a variety of shoes mostly consisting of Bruno Magli's. On his left wrist, he wears a Bell and Ross Vintage watch. To complete his outfit, he has a set of Bvlgari cufflinks.

History

Trent first started showing signs of his psychopathy at a noticeably young age. A small bird hit the kitchen window, startled he went outside and was completely fascinated by what he saw. As the bird lay there twitching its smallmouth slowly opening and closing as if gasping for breath. Trent watched in morbid curiosity and could not pull his gaze away.

Wanting to see something of this nature again he started with poisons but was quickly displeased with how the birds died when used. It was different in his eyes; they did not struggle or show any signs of pain they simply laid down and died or twitched a little before taking their final breath.

Finally getting the courage to ask his mother for a pellet gun he was able to fulfill his desire. Soon however birds were not enough for him and he moved on to larger animals such as cats and dogs. This behavior was unnoticed by his parents and neighbors though signs were frequently put up for missing animals.

His father Bradly was a larger man known most notably for his beer gut. He worked long hours at a brick factory and had a very particular view of how Trent and his mother should behave. When this expectation was not met abuse followed. While careful not to strike Trent in the face, he was beaten quite badly on a weekly basis.

Trent's mother Malisa was a passive woman. Frightened of her husband Bradly and feeling trapped she ignored the physical and mental abuse that both she and her son Trent were put through. She would be the one to attend school meetings and treated his wounds to avoid taking Trent to the hospital which would have most certainly gotten child services involved.

The school was not much different than his home life. Trent was an underdeveloped child and struggled with a stutter for many years. Bullies and other delinquents were quick to take advantage of his seemingly odd and socially disturbing behavior. The way he looked at others bothered most people including his teachers.

Because of his poor childhood and bad upbringing, Trent learned to lie and often. These started off so simple and were easily detectable. However, as time passed, he got better and learned how to manipulate others as well.

Near the end of high school, Trent's mother developed Munchausen syndrome by proxy. It started showing after he had broken his ankle and soon, he became sick and never seemed to get better. One night while his parents were out, he ate the lunch his mother left for him and collapsed. Having just enough strength to call emergency services. They quickly found out that he was being poisoned on a regular basis. The authorities contacted his father first looking for information on what had happened.

Enraged at the idea that his wife would do this, Bradly rushed home from work. Wrapped his belt around her neck and attempted to pull her outside where the authorities were already waiting. However, in the process of doing this, he broke her neck and is now serving a life sentence for manslaughter.

By this point, Trent struggled to morally distinguish right and wrong behavior. He also had a hard time showing any kind of remorse or empathy when dealing with others. Because of this he was not adopted and spent the remainder of his childhood in an orphanage (Group Home).

Trent attended college as a finance major. However, in 2001 he dropped out learning the basics that he felt he needed to survive. He immediately purchased stock in a company called Cadabra Inc. He continued to pump money into these stocks as quickly as possible knowing this would either make him or break him, he took the biggest chance of his life. Within a few months, the company changed its name to the more popular site called Amazon.com

With his investment sound, he became a millionaire within the next year and was offered buy outs for his shares in the company. Which he sold though kept 2% which he continues to collect dividends on to this day.

WORLD INFOMATION
Inactive: (Story Ended) Forever Bound Pt. 2
Name: Rictor Bullet (aka - Ric)
Height: 6'2
Weight: 223lbs
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Dark Brown, short, close-cut, and parted to the right.
Age: 29

Appearance: Rictor Bullet, has an average build, while muscular he is not overly defined in his body definition. He has a gruff voice that makes him sound like a smoker. Thick facial hair covers his well-defined jawline and while trimmed is often unkempt. His broad shoulders are often drawn back forcing his chest forward and giving him a dominant appearance that can be mistaken as someone appearing standoffish.

Rictor (aka Ric) is often dressed in various flannel shirts and jeans. He will wear several styles of hat's from ballcaps to wide brim cowboy-style hats (Typically with a bull rider bend aka George Straight Bend.) He has several large buckles, but none are from awards. He finishes this rugged appearance with large cowboy style boots, normally in black or dark leathers.

History

Rictor was born to a struggling farmer named Garret. His mother Lisa helped around the house, but they simply did not have the money to maintain their farm and because of this, it fell into disarray. While Rictor was a hardship he was loved by both his parents as they struggled to assure he had everything he needed to live a moderate life and the skills he would require to one day find a life better than the one he currently had.

His father Garret was a firm man but not an abusive one. He was the first to wake up in the morning and the last to go to bed. He held old fashion values that are too easily forgotten nowadays. His mother was a soft-spoken woman but believed that her house was her kingdom. She made the rules inside the house and even his father Garret followed them, she was a kind and loving person but firm when it came to her home.

Tragedy struck at the young age of 12. As an only child Rictor was doing his best to help around the farm, and even then, was aware of how hard life could be. He was taught hard lessons from his father such as hunting, survival, and most importantly hard work. However, in the late afternoon of a bright sunny day, Garret's shoelace caught in the tractor and it ended badly. Leaving Rictor fatherless and his wife Lisa a widow.

Four years later, and his mother Lisa was a worn-down waitress at a local truck stop. They lived in a cheap run-down motel room and Rictor worked part-time, while still attending school to help make ends meet. Rictor had become fiercely protective of his mother over the years, which made her life that much more difficult. She was unable to move on from Garrets loss and if any attempt to do so was made Rictor was quick to put a stop to it.

At the age of 17, Rictor's life would change forever. While hunting he came across wolf tracks. Knowing that it was a bad idea but unable to shake the excitement of having a real-life wolf pelt, Rictor began hunting the wolf. It was bigger than most and he was careful to avoid any tricks that might give him away. Staying downwind he continued tracking it for nearly six hours. Then he saw it, a massive gray wolf, the biggest thing he had ever seen in his life. Twice the size of any wolf he had ever heard of. It reminded him of those dire wolves they learned of in school. He aimed to make sure his first shot would be a kill shot. The body was not visible enough, but its head stuck out against the darkening background like a shining sun. BANG! He fired, The Remington ADL kicked hard but the shot rang true and tagged the wolf in the side of the head causing the whole thing to spin around like a top before crashing to the ground. Rictor yelled out in triumph "Woo Wee! Hell, Yeah Baby!" He stood quickly moving toward the corpse of the large wolf. He noticed its legs kick several times as he approached but such a thing was not uncommon for an animal in the thralls of death. Then it became suddenly still completely unmoving, again he did not concern himself with it and moved quicker.

The savage attack that ensued was impossibly brutal. The wolf he had shot was a rogue werewolf and it intended to mutilate and kill him in the most horrendous way possible. Which it did, Rictor laid there in a pile of broken mutilated flesh. His face was torn open with parts of his scalp exposed and his cheek completely ripped open. His arm twisted and missing large chunks exposing the bone. His body was indescribable with his inners strewn out across the ground for the birds to feast on. Laying there in the dirt around the cold wet pools of his own blood he blinked a final time unable to take that last gasp of breath and all the world around him faded to nothingness.

When he woke, He felt warm, his clothing was torn to shreds but aside from this, he had no noticeable wounds anywhere on his body. It could not have been a dream as the dried and caked blood all over the ground and his skin would suggest otherwise. He considered that perhaps he had been attacked by a fay of some kind and that this was simply a lesson he was meant to learn from.

As the days passed into weeks. Rictor continued life as he normally would, doing his best to explain what had happened to his mother Lisa, but even she struggled to fully grasp the story he told. As the moon became full his nightmare returned and his mother Lisa was his first victim. Rictor's rampage continued for over a year, never fully understanding what was happening, and never truly coming to accept what curse had befallen him.

He was eventually found by Jack Edwards a pack Alpha in Montana. At that point, Rictor was a mess and for the next few years, Jack and his pack worked to help Rictor control his wolf. While in time Rictor now more commonly referred to as Ric, was able to come to grips with what happened. He refused to accept his life. He spent more and more time in his wolf form and was warned repeatedly about doing this. He allowed his wolf too close to the surface, and his emotions reflected this which was often punished as a result.

Life had just become easier for him with the wolf in control. It did not hurt; it did not dwell on the past and most importantly it was not afraid of anything. Jack and several other pack members had warned Rictor that allowing his wolf to take control like he was, could lead him to become exactly like the wolf that attacked him. He knew the risk and simply did not care.

Rictor had a grim outlook on life and humans in general. He got into many fights in the pack, fighting for dominance always trying to prove himself. He was not the lowest pack member, but he was not the strongest of them either. Rictor found himself in the middle someplace, cannon fodder he often called it.

Rictor was a heavy drinker, when he was not taking care of his pack business, he was normally found at the bar drinking or running wild and free when he could get away with it. Aside from Rictor's bad personality and aggressive nature he was also a slob, he kept a dirty small trailer for his house out in pack territory because he could not afford anything better. The pack provided but no one said they provided well. He typically hunted for his food rather than go shopping, and cleaning was just something he was not interested in. While he would shower and care for himself his house did not receive such attention. His personality combined with his continued drinking also did not allow him to work or at least maintain a job. Instead, he worked for the pack as a standing guard or scout when needed. His loyalty was never in question just his smarts.

As he never finished school his education was low, to begin with, this was often shown when it came to numbers or complicated language. Rictor truly embodied what it meant to be trash and was as unruly as they came.

STORY ENDED​

Inactive = (Story Ended) Pirates Black Heart
Name: Tomas Mallory (The Butcher)
Height: 6'2
Weight: 215 lbs.
Eyes: Dark Brown
Age: 32
Hair: Dark Brown with Pepper Gray Highlights, shaved short

Personality: Butcher is a vicious man, brutal by every sense of the word. Unlike others of his ilk, Butcher does not allow free reign aboard his ship. He rules with an iron fist at the tip of a blade. Those who do not like it can either get off or die. The atrocities committed by Butcher are beyond counting. He is a top earner for his trade. Most noticeably however is his absolute intolerance for the wealthy. He is cold, calculating, and ruthless. He acts without consideration of the consequences or morality weighing him down.

Appearance: Butcher keeps his hair cut short and has a noticeable scar running along the right side of his head which has displaced sections of his hair. He has a thick slightly groomed beard which matches his hair color including the peppered gray. He is a well-built man though the definition is not something he cares about. His skin is sea torn and shows the roughness of being on the salty waves for so long. Typically he is seen wearing a thick brownish frock which has a leather shoulder pauldron and several belts strapped around it. He is almost never without his saber and flintlock pistol. He has large metal earrings that hang from his right ear and several tattoos covering his chest and arms.

History:

Tomas Mallory as a young man was raised in a god-fearing, and loving home. His father a military man by the name of David, took great care to assure that Tomas was raised properly with a strong education and physical adaptability to survive in most situations. While never allowing him to focus on either of these two things directly.

As a boy and well into his young adult life he desired to be something greater than his father was. A man of legendary talent who vanquished the enemy and became a chivalrous lord among men. His interest only peaked further as he learned of the sea and the freedom that came from traveling on it. Joining the military service voluntarily rather than waiting to be drafted he was able to select navel as his career path. At the age of 16, he was accepted into the service and maintained his status until the age of 19.

This was the first run-in he had with pirates, and they were not prepared for what awaited them on board Tomas Mallory's ship. His men brutally and efficiently handled the attack. Rather than repel the attack, however, Tomas pressed his advantage and took their ship for his own. His brutality did not end there, however. Murdering each crew member and forcing some to fight to the death against one another. He then hung many of their corpses off the edge of his newly acquired ship and let them rot against the seawater. His intention for doing this was to cause fear in his enemies and any others that might dare attack him or his men.

When Tomas returned to port to celebrate his legendary victory over the pirates however what awaited him was not the adoring cheers of fans. He was stripped of his rank for the atrocities he and his men committed. Several of his men were executed and made examples of. However, because of Tomas's father and his own military experience he was spared this fate, but damned to be banished from the city and stripped of commendations or awards he was owed.

Even his own mother and father condemned his acts as evil and stated clearly that they never wanted to see or hear from him again. Enraged by this with a mixture of mortification that anyone would look down on him this way he gathered what men were still loyal to him and took to the seas in a stolen ship.

The name Tomas Mallory eventually was lost to the seas. What replaced it was The Butcher, and with this new name he quickly became one of the most feared pirates to ever sail the open waters. His name crossed children's lips when ghost stories were told around the candle lights. It was spoken when shadows loomed over walls or when a dark ship sailed into the port at odd hours of the night.

The Butcher was merciless and vengeful. Rumors started about drowning babes in their mother's milk, a falsehood of course but he let them grow and they continued to do just that. He wreaked havoc up and down the coast lines for decades. Generations of people from country upon country learned of his horrific acts.

Butcher's ship The Bloody Bones, became synonymous with death. Those who saw it knew that no mercy would be found no quarter would be given. He held honor among the thieves but reigned supreme when crushing his enemies. Bounties for his death reached staggering amounts only beaten by legends like Black Beard which he hoped to one day rival.

Inactive = Broken Hostage (story on hold)
Name: Luke Edwards
Height: 6'2
Weight: 219 lbs.
Eyes: Blue
Hair: Light Brown
Age: 28

Personality: Luke is emotionally detached from others. He is not a violent person and certainly not homicidal but has the potential to be. He is withdrawn from most people, and when he focuses on something his focus is laser sighted. He struggles to draw his attention away from it. His underlining nature is to control his environment and everyone in it. However, he most certainly does not show this side of himself to others and remains quiet and withdrawn staying deeply locked in his inner thoughts rather than openly expressing his desires.

Appearance: Luke is a well-built man. He works out regularly and this is reflected in his physique. He keeps his hair neatly trimmed with a small wave to the right. He has an intense stare which is often confused for glaring. Five-o-clock shadow covers his strong jawline as he will go a few days without shaving. He has a clear complexion but is noticeably tan like someone who either sunbathes or is frequently in the sun.

He likes to wear slacks of various colors, from tan to black, typically held by a leather belt. He also enjoys long sleeved button shirts rolled up. He is by no means a rich man, and his clothing would reflect this being commonly bought items and not the expensive name brands one might expect from gap or other establishments. He enjoys loafers but will also wear dress shoes when needed.

History

Luke was a poor child; he grew up on hand me downs and thrift store specials. Aside from this, his home was not a joy to be raised in either. His father left while he was still young. His mother now single, fell to the drink quickly. She worked at an unforgiving job which left her little time to care for her son. What time she did have was spent drinking away her problems. While she was not abusive to her child, she was neglectful to him. Uncaring of his activities, schooling, or lifestyle.

As he became older, he grew distant, keeping away from other children in high school and simply watching them from afar. He was not stupid but by no means was he considered highly intelligent being average in most everything he did. He did have one quality which he excelled at, which was running. Luke could run and enjoyed doing it. His coaches focused on this and because of it he learned the basics needed to work out and keep his body in shape so it could keep up with him.

As an adult, he took a job at a construction company. Mostly being a flagger for road work in the hot sun. He was not ashamed of his body and spent much of his free time jogging or working out. Not to an excessive amount but enough to garner him attention from the opposite sex. This, however, caused an internal struggle which he could not face.

He had a strong emotional detachment from others. He tried dating various women, but they never lasted as he could not show his true self to anyone. If only they could be made to listen, then he would find his true love. Aside from being slightly mentally disturbed his sexual deviancies were also a problem. He longed for control but was often afraid to take it. If only he could truly force someone to understand him then this too would no longer be a problem. If only she would notice him. He will make her notice him.

 

[Redfren]

Inactive = (Story Ended) No Mate Motto
Name: Michael Bailey
Height: 6'3
Weight: 238 lbs.
Eyes: Blue (golden flecks)
Hair: Light Brown (Blond Highlights)
Age: 128 years of age (appearance Mid 30's)

Personality: Michael has a strong and often aggressive personality. While understanding and often open with others he has a very low tolerance for those who defy him and can often be highly volatile when dealing with such offenders. Outwardly Michael often comes off as unapproachable and dangerous. However, those who know him, are more familiar with how deeply he cares and how protective he can be.

Appearance: He has a very rugged and free appearance. Never seeming to care much for fancy clothing and designer attire. While not the most well-built man in the pack he is not without his definition. He tends to keep a five-o-clock shadow most days but otherwise seems clear of hair from his chest and back. Two noticeable tattoos run down each of his arms. His chest for those who see it also has several deep scars. Michaels gaze is perhaps the most intimidating aspect of him as he often looks like he is scowling at an individual, the only thing that would trump this would be his commanding voice sounding as if he has served multiple terms in the military.

History:

Michael was born as a werewolf. His life was filled with training and hardship Born in 1892 he lived a difficult life and is considered quite old for someone of his kind. Serving in not one but two wars he found that he was uniquely suited for combat.

Once he found a pack and dominance battles started it was clear that he held an advantage over others. Within 12 years he rose to become the pack Alpha and took the position very seriously making dramatic changes to the pack structure and behaviors. Which included allowing humans and other breeds of supernatural's to be integrated into the pack itself. This caused a wide influx of problems which over the years were handled one after another. While some still resent his openness to allow outsiders in the pack it was clear that anyone wishing to join needed to accept this new reality.

Because of this, his pack has always remained slightly small in comparison to the purer packs. He also outlawed the creation of Blue Bloods within the pack itself. While not able to prevent those who were already created, he would no longer allow such behaviors to take place.

Michael's wild ideas of how a pack should be run drew the attention of other packs and their councils however it was deemed that he could continue to run his pack as he desired until another was able to take his place, or he stepped down from the position.

During his long lifespan, Michael has had many lovers. However, he is never found a mate, the singular person whom he thought would make a good mate was determined to destroy all that he worked for and hoped to achieve. As a result, they separated over 12 years ago. She was removed from the pack and sent to be with another if they would accept her. Since this time Michael has sworn off women and the hopes of ever finding a mate himself was lost.

Inactive = (Story Ended) The Lure Of A Demon
Name: Benedict Atticus (Baron)
Height: 6'1
Weight: 192 lbs.
Eyes: Brown
Age: 35
Hair: Brown (Currently Bald)

Personality: Benedict has little empathy for others. He is a driven man by his own personal goals and agendas and does not believe in the system to provide protection or social normality. He often uses manipulation for his own benefit and can be noticeably short-tempered. His cruelty is known far and wide, but it is his ability to simply not care that really sets him apart. If something does not benefit him or his agenda, then that particular subject is of little importance to him. Because of this personality defect, he has distanced himself from others like family and lacks social skills that would make him an important member of society.

Appearance: While Benedict keeps himself in shape, he is by no means a man that works out or exercises. A good metabolism is what keeps his weight in check. As he has a fading hairline, he often shaves his head bald preferring the way this looks. He keeps a well-groomed beard and smokes cigars like most people smoke cigarettes. He has no tattoos or any other markings that would identify him and aside from a small patch of hair on his chest he is not a hairy person by any means having no hair on his back or much of it on his chest. Benedict keeps his nails well-groomed and prefers the look of a well-dressed businessman to that of a common person. Expensive clothing only begins to explain his outward appearance as he often goes in for manicures and grooming done by professionals. He considers his body a temple and treats it as such save for the cigars and occasional drink.

History:

Benedict Atticus had a brutal childhood. His mother passed in childbirth leaving him alone with his drunk father. Aside from the typical abuse that followed him most of his life. He struggled in school and often found himself as an outcast. Lacking any money for himself a life of crime was quickly his solution for modern-day problems. This lifestyle started small, candy, smokes, food, then moved on to larger things like cars, and finally credit cards. His life did not truly start until his 27th birthday when he realized that he could make more money by loaning people money they did not have than he could steal. Having successfully fleeced several cars he had saved a substantial amount and started his first loan with a 62% interest rate. To his surprise, the man paid him back interest included, and this started him down a road of loan sharking. He became extremely popular at this and quickly hired enforcers to get his money when they struggled to pay. As the wealth poured in so did his bad choices as he started giving out loans to more dangerous people and became more well known. Brutality was his calling card and even this was becoming difficult to enforce as guns were quite popular in his line of work. In addition to all this, he started to collect rare and obscure things, artwork, books, relics. Even a few heists were set up by him simply to gain one particular piece of art that captured his attention. Since that time Benedict took on the street name Baron or The Baron and was known as a vicious crime lord.

His sexual proclivities reflected his desire to see pain and suffering in the hearts of others and as a result, he had taken the lives of several prostitutes in his time. He never desired a family and what he could remember of his own prevented him from forming any real connections with people. While his group of men did reflect a mafia-like setup they were not. He stuck mostly to theft and loans and stayed away from the harder criminal aspects like money laundering and other such high-end crimes.

It was recommended as his wealth continued to grow that he invests in high-end companies that focused on loans however what companies he did acquire were more low-end check cashing spots. Which he also increased the interest in only using legal methods to collect. This allowed him to explain his income and prevented law enforcement from looking too closely at his other shadier business practices. In all his time as a loan shark, the single most devastating practice was murder. Doing this helped no one and was the last result. It is easier to get money back from the living than it is to get it back from the dead. Broken fingers and missing toes are encouraged overtaking someone's life, though he has never had a problem doing either. Times are getting tougher, and he is recently found himself lacking in the muscle department.

Inactive = Beretti Crime Family Story (Story Ended)
Name: Vincenzo "Spade" Rosolino
Height: 6'1
Weight: 187lbs.
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Black, cut short, and slicked back.
Age: 34

Appearance: Spade is known to wear awfully expensive suits and ties with overcoats and a fedora. It is said that a single suit could cost upwards of three thousand dollars or more. He often has an overnight shadow or a weeks' worth of facial hair covering his strong jawline. He is not one to work out and because of this, he has a very average build, though most know him as a fairly strong man he makes no claims to this himself.

Personality: He is a very calm and collected man. It is said that he appears calm even when committing horrendous acts of violence. Spade has a very no-nonsense attitude toward most things. He has unwavering respect and loyalty for the family but seems less interested in showing that respect to those under him. While Spade can be explosive it's typically when he's calm that you need to watch out. He's been known to end someone's life after sitting down and having a friendly conversation with them as if everything was normal.

History:

Born in 1891 to an Italian immigrant, Vincenzo was raised in an extremely poor family. Never knowing his father who stayed in Italy he quickly sought out others that would share his interest and suffered from the same struggles that he did. He joined a small street gang and later became a bouncer in an organized crime family for a brothel. This job and the people that paid him are what would pave the rest of his life going forward.

What Vincenzo saw were the most impressive and powerful men he had ever experienced in his life. Given his position, he wasn't able to impress any of the people he encountered but it didn't stop him from trying. During this time, he had grown remarkably close to several of the harlots that worked at the brothel, and it wasn't long before his job as a bouncer put his life in real jeopardy. One of the younger gangsters from the North Side had gotten very rough with a woman there. He was a made man, but Vincenzo didn't think about that at all as he rushed to stop the brutal assault that was taking place. What he wasn't aware of is that Filippo Beretti was present at the time and watched the entire affair go down.

As the man pulled a gun, Vincenzo didn't react at all and charged him knocking the gun out of his hand and beating the man who was nearly 10 years older than him at the time half to death. Once he finished, he pulled out the man's wallet and asked the harlot how much was owed. She gave a number and instead of stealing the made man's money, he pulled out the correct amount paid her put the rest of the money back in his wallet, and took him outside where he set the man against a wall and gave him a drink.

The Boss, Filippo Beretti was so impressed with how he handled the situation that he offered to give him a real chance and made him a bodyguard to the consiglieri. This was the chance that Vincenzo needed, and he jumped at the opportunity given to him. It wasn't long before he was given more difficult jobs and he also became increasingly violent showing his ability to kill without mercy. Law enforcement eventually caught up with Vincenzo and arrested him on one count of first-degree murder. He was set to serve life in prison however they offered him a deal where if he spoke about the activities he witnessed even if it wasn't incriminating they would let him go. Vincenzo refused outright, even attempting to assault the police for suggesting such a thing.

He only served one year in prison however before the charges were dropped for lack of evidence and witnesses. After this, he was officially welcomed into the family as a soldier, but his journey was not finished. Within a few years, Vincenzo was making more money than most of the Capos at the time. He never failed to give his kickbacks, but several feared he was too influential and that he might replace them. At the age of 23, a hit was ordered on Vincenzo one which he barely survived; everyone knew the hit came from his current Capo even he knew this. However, instead of retaliating, as a normal person would have, he went to the underboss, which was a significant risk. He asked for permission to retaliate and after a few days, it was granted. Which he did and exacted his revenge ending the man's life.

Again, the family was impressed but not only his ability to make money but his respect for their traditions and his willingness to do what they said without question. It would not be long after this he would become a Capo himself. Once that happened, he established a small gambling area which would later turn into one of the more popular underground casinos. He also began running his own brothels and other various illegal activities. Vincenzo took the name Spade because he would leave an ace of spades on his victims of which there were many.

Active = A Dark Magical World (Story Thread)
Name: Zane Maddox
Height: 6'2
Weight: 205 lbs.
Eyes: Hazel
Age: 43
Hair: Dark Gray with white sides

Personality: Zane Maddox can be extremely arrogant and has severe control issues that show heavily in his personality. Zane is the kind of person that has codependency on others or at least the need to control them. Often, he will do this in order to feel safe, confident, and secure in his own life. Examples of Zane's personality might be that he will start doting on a girlfriend or someone of importance showing a great deal of attention and care to them as time goes on this will taper off and becomes far darker. Isolating the person completely when possible, insulting or lowering their own confidence levels and self-image, easily becoming frustrated with questions. He is not a good person and has been known to lie, openly attempting to change others, criticizing and belittling others often, refusing to take no for an answer, because who would tell him no? Zane can also be a very jealous person.

Appearance: Part of Zane's image of control is to assure he is in the best physical shape possible. Because of this he works out and has a fantastic and well-defined build. He is well-groomed and often has little more than overnight stubble on his jawline, which is well pronounced. The most noticeable feature about Zane aside from his piercing gaze is his hair. It is unclear if he dyes his hair to even it out or if it is naturally darker on the top and light on the sides. He also carries himself proudly keeping his chest broadly displayed and his shoulders back.

History:

Born into a wealthy family Zane lived a privileged life. While his family was not filthy rich, they were easily beyond the millionaire mark and because of this Zane wanted for extraordinarily little. Until the age of ten, it was never clear what his family did for a living or why they were so wealthy. By that time, he had heard everything from gangster stories to stock market success. Little did he know the truth would be a rabbit hole he could never climb out of.

At the age of ten, he was taken into a formal school and tested for his magical ability. Prior to this, he was not even aware that magic was a real thing. To everyone's surprise, Zane was very adaptable to magic and how it is constructed. Not only this but he excelled at it. Having a specialization in materialization and transmutation spells it became apparent to everyone that Zane was something unique and special. Most mages only had one specialization, but Zane appeared to have two. In addition to this his ability to understand the fundamentals of magic and how it works exceeded some of the most trained people in the field at that time.

It might all seem like a dream come true. But with his accomplishments also came overprotective parents. They controlled everything in Zane's life, what he ate when he ate, what he wore, where he studied when he studied and so much more. His life was so controlled he did not even know what a public setting was like until the age of sixteen. Even then during his most rebellious stage security guards were called in to always watch him. His phone was heavily monitored, and privacy was a concept that simply did not exist to him.

Life continued this way until Zane had nearly finished college. At that time, his father suddenly passed away and a deeper investigation found that much of their wealth was created by his father using his own life force. Decades of his father's life vanished so he could live a wealthy life. Not long after this, his mother followed the same destructive path using her own life force to magically speak with Zane's father from beyond the grave. With that, his family passed and he was finally free but knowing what to do with all that freedom and wealth left him unsatisfied for many years.

Eventually, Zane was approached and asked to educate new students at Vanderson University. He agreed and originally started off as a specialization mage teaching students about materialization magic however after finishing more schooling himself he moved on to general studies and has taught at the school for the last ten years.

Inactive = (Story Ended) A Taboo World
Name: Dean Mayberry
Height: 6'3
Weight: 189 lbs.
Eyes: Hazel
Hair: Dark Brown, cut short.
Age: 43

Appearance: Dean has a better-than-average build. Staying in shape with swimming and treadmill work out's he's lean but not overly muscular. He has a hard voice with a slight New York accent and often uses a lot of profanity. A well-defined jawline that is often covered with overnight stubble, intense gaze as if he's upset or angry.

Personality: He has a very foul mouth and uses a lot of profanity when speaking. He has the look of a killer about him and the personality to match it. Being highly aggressive and lacking any concern for his own welfare allows him to do things that others would consider dangerous. He can be very dominant and is often distant when referring to his own life. Dean trusts no one, and because of this can be very socially awkward, allowing paranoia to override his common sense.

History:

Dean was born in 1978 and grew up in a very poor and difficult family on the streets of New York. His mother (Heather) worked two jobs to keep the bills paid and was often absent for most of his life because of this. His father (Winston) was a heavy drinker, who did not work and considered himself a stay-at-home Dad, which was the furthest thing from the truth. He was abusive to both Dean and his Mother Heather. He drank too much and made their life very difficult with his spending habits and aggressive nature. Many nights were spent listening to his father and mother fight and argue.

Always struggling in school and being less popular because of how much they struggled financially, Dean quickly distanced himself from others and started to become socially awkward and openly embarrassed when they would go out to all-you-can-eat buffets. Watching his family take home as much as they could, made him the focus of many other children who were more fortunate than he was. He had some learning disabilities brought on by depression and his lack of attention and interest in subjects, Dean fell behind in school. He was bullied often and had more than a few students take that to the next level and openly attack him or fight with him. Attempting to resolve this by telling his mother or father did not help, as his mother Heather couldn't do anything, and his father referred to him as a wimp or some other derogatory term and would strike him saying things like. "Do they hit as hard as I do? Then hit them back." This was the life Dean knew until the age of 17.

At this stage of his life, he met his first love. A beautiful girl that was able to look past his socially awkward nature and his wealth and saw Dean as a determined, dedicated young man that was giving a real effort to everything he was doing. She only saw the best in him and encouraged him to improve his life, which led to his first part-time job and other life improvements. One day while at work Dean's girlfriend was taken home by one of her male friends. That man became inappropriate with her and drove her to a secluded area where he proceeded to assault her before taking her home. Terrified and blaming herself she eventually broke down and informed Dean what happened and that was the moment his life changed.

Confronting the person, the argument became heated, and Dean pushed him down a hillside. His neck was broken and he died moments later after hitting the bottom. This was when Dean realized he was different. He didn't feel good about what happened, but he didn't care either, it was like a disconnection between what had happened and what he was feeling. He rationalized his behavior and even saw the benefits of this person no longer being involved in anyone's life. There was no investigation as people assumed he had fallen from the hill. Which was the first murder Dean would get away with. He also didn't tell his girlfriend or even think about the matter again simply stating that he spoke with him, and it wouldn't be a problem anymore. She found out about the death and left Dean fearful of what he was capable of.

From this point forward Dean's fear of others dwindled considerably, and he became far bolder in defending himself. Including a heated argument with his father which led to him holding a knife to his fathers sleeping throat and telling him that it was within his power to end the man's life whenever he wanted and that if he ever laid a hand on his mother or himself again, he would do it and happily go to jail afterward.

Dean's next problem was his wealth, and he really didn't have the education or experience to change that. In the hope to better his life, he joined the U.S. Military and found that he had a knack for the service and many of the skills required to make something of himself. After he got out, he returned home and thought about attending college to better his life. Around this time, he met a local member of the Los Cosa Nostra or (Mob) he was unaware of the person's affiliation at that time. The person was very upset about someone who had insulted them and made a statement that he would pay someone to end the man's life rather than dealing with the matter internally. Dean approached the man saying he would do it, he stated that he didn't want to know anything about the person making the offer and didn't want any money upfront. Once the job was completed he was to just leave the money in a location and move on. With nothing to lose from accepting these terms, Dean took his first hit. He didn't do anything flashy or impressive he simply followed the guy one night ran his car off the road, walked to the passenger side, and tossed a Molotov cocktail in the window before driving off. Neither waiting to see the results of his task nor leaving evidence behind to trace him to the deed. Concerned that the man who sanctioned the hit would not pay him Dean was pleasantly surprised to find out that he did. Which started his life as an official hitman for various groups and wealthy people. He never had an interest in becoming a member of the Mob and instead saw the potential in simply taking contracts.

As his wealth increased, he grew distant from his family and was openly ostracized by them. While they were unaware of what he did for a living they were aware of how dangerous he had become and wanted nothing to do with him thinking he was involved in organized crime, which he wasn't. He took a position with a local mercenary company on the recommendations of someone else. This company was a front designed to show steady income for his financial records. The truth was he paid them, monthly to assure he stayed on their books. Because it was a classified operation anyone asking for details about his employment was given limited answers if any at all.

Not Active = (Story Ended)
Name: Damien Styx
Height: 6'2
Weight: 173 lbs.
Eyes: Dark Brown
Hair: Near Black, Long, Straight, past shoulders
Age: 36

Appearance: Damien is a well-built male with a mix of Asian and American for his heritage. He has a thin beard that traces along his sharp jawline. His striking brown eyes seem intense and is often compared to someone who has seen too much death in their life. Seeing this man smile is rare but when he does it's a model-worthy event as small dimples form up with his wide grin.

Personality: He has a dark empathic outlook on things and is often referred to as a sociopath or outright narcissist. He's very quick to anger and has a cold unforgiving nature that will often lead to outbursts or open assault. While not a true psychopath he shares many traits with them. Damien is very good at putting up a false persona and can typically fit into any crowd very quickly. One minute he's your best friend the next he's putting two rounds in the back of your head while walking you home. There's very little indication that he's going to snap but when he does the consequences are often deadly.

History:

Damien had a very bright childhood which allowed him the luxuries few if any got to experience firsthand. Because of this he was extremely spoiled and did not conform to society's norms. This became apparent in grade school when he began assaulting other students who attempted to pick on him. When a teacher stepped in, he attempted to stab them with a pair of scissors and was immediately expelled. After this, he was homeschooled which only further separated him from the normalities of society.

His father Hideyoshi Styx came to America before meeting his wife, Jessica Styx. He started as a simple banker at the young age of twenty however over the next few years he became involved in wall street and quickly started to make a name for himself with predictions. It wasn't long before he was offered a full-time position at a fake company designed to steal and mislead its clients. The job was simple enough for Hideyoshi he was to hype up a particular company or stock that the company either owned or was invested in that was about to crash or close. Once the investor was hooked, he would get them to invest as much as they could within the portfolio and then wait for it to burn down around them. Before the investor could even complain the company was packed up and had moved on to start a new one. This type of Ponzi scheme was extremely popular and made Hideyoshi and his young wife millions within a matter of years.

His wife Jessica was a budding model for an agency before she fell in with Damien's father. She was almost twenty years younger than he was but always seemed happy, at least at the start of their relationship. Hideyoshi was very demanding and controlling and didn't want other men to see his wife. Because of that, she was forced to give up her dreams of being a model and instead required to stay at home and raise Damien while Hideyoshi worked. That all came to an end, however, when Damien turned sixteen.

Three days after his birthday, Damien's mother Jessica took her own life and hung herself in the bathroom. She had discovered that Hideyoshi had been having multiple affairs and also had children with other women. Several of which he was taking care of in private homes of their own. When she confronted him about this, Hideyoshi beat her senseless and threatened to move her to Japan where she wouldn't even know how to speak the language. Unsure of how to handle the situation she ended her life and was later discovered by Damien himself.

This started Damien on a much darker path, and within the next two years, he was studying overseas per his father's request. Learning Japanese and various martial arts. Still, the money never stopped flowing and because of this, he was considered something of royalty there. Hideyoshi did have other children however none of them were male and given his nature this was an unacceptable outcome for the man. On Damien's nineteenth birthday, Hideyoshi was arrested. That month millions of dollars along with property and other things were transferred into his trust and bank account. Damien himself wasn't even aware of this until he returned to the states to find out why his father hadn't contacted him or sent him money and was informed of the situation by the family lawyer.

Hideyoshi was charged with many crimes and sentenced to sixty years in federal prison. He was also ordered to turn over all assets including his finances to the state. To avoid that he transferred everything over to his son and locked it behind a trust. Because Damien wasn't involved in his fathers dealing and wasn't even in the United States at the time. The transfer was successful, and the money was not able to be claimed by the government. Hideyoshi was over fifty when he was charged, and his sixty-year sentence was a life sentence because of his age. Without the possibility of parole, his life had truly ended. Damien did attempt to stay in contact with Hideyoshi, but he insisted that the two no longer meet or associate with one another at all and have never spoken since.

Damien has since moved into a type of criminal transport service. Taking various goods, people, guns, and drugs across the seas via his yacht for money. Though he didn't need the money and mostly did this because it felt right to him. He had almost no rules regarding what he would transport except one. He would not trade in children for any reason and any attempt to do so without his knowledge would lead to every bit of power he had to seek revenge. Aside from this, he had transported people many times, some being sold into slavery others simply trying to escape their country or the people who kept them. He also transported drugs and guns across open waters and for the most part never really had any run-ins with the law.

Because of his line of work Damien has become extremely dangerous. In his lifetime he has ended the life of more people than he cares to count. He's never bothered being with a woman because they were always so easy to get that he never found any appeal to keeping one around long enough to be anything more than entertainment. He also has ties to many different organized criminal outfits from the mafia of America to the Yakuza of Japan. He even has ties to various drug lords and Russian gangsters. He does not associate exclusively with any of these groups.

Inactive = Hell Motel (Story Ended)
Name: Jett Walker
Height: 6'5
Weight: 210 lbs.
Eyes: Light Brown
Hair: Brown, cut short (Buzzed on sides)
Age: 44

Appearance: Jett is a large man who has spent most of his life working in construction or flagging on the roadside. This is reflected in his appearance, having beaten, and worn skin. He typically has an overnight shadow or a few days of facial growth but never allows it to go much longer than that. While he is a physically powerful person, he lacks muscle tone and definition, showing some muscle tone but not enough to indicate he ever works out or lifts weights. Jett has a deeply gruff and rumbling voice as if the better part of his youth were spent yelling. Often, he will wear a standard work jacket and t-shirt under it with basic blue jeans or pants. He prefers boots over shoes and will use his work boots which are either tan or black depending on the pair.

History:

Jett Walker did not have a good childhood. He suffered from an abusive drunk father and a distant and uncaring mother. Their family was far from wealthy and always seemed to struggle from one day to the next. His attitude quickly spiraled out of control as he was once in a fight with another person his own age and lost running home frightened. Force to go out in the yard and fight the person again until he either won or could no longer stand, Jett learned very quickly that if he wanted to survive, he needed to be stronger.

His mother worked two jobs and while on her way home got into a car accident. The incident was blamed on her for falling asleep at the wheel though no one confirmed if this was true. She did not survive the accident however and this sent Jett's father into a tailspin of alcohol and further abuse. Realizing that he would not survive if he stayed, he contacted his grandfather for help. His grandfather owned a local motel in a rural area and had always treated him well. This time was no exception as he offered to send money to Jett so he could get a place of his own, or for him to come live at the motel and work for him. Jett accepted the money however his father found out about it and took this along with another firm beating for going behind his back.

Soon after he reached an adult age Jett moved out and took a job as a flagger on the street waving off oncoming traffic if they neared a construction zone. The work was hard and required long hours, but it was enough to establish himself and get a small apartment and truck. His grandfather passed away soon after leaving the motel to his father who didn't care about it at all and let it remain abandoned for the next few decades.

Eventually, Jett met a young woman and got married. However, his father's personality came out in him quickly especially when he drank, and because of the continuous abuse and fighting the two had, a divorce soon followed. In addition to this Jett served three years in state prison for his abuse and violations of the restraining orders. He returned to what he knew and started flagging again when he got out. His father and he did not speak during any of this time nor did he ever intend to speak with the man again.

Years later Jett was contacted and informed that his father passed away. He signed the papers needed to have him cremated but did not request services or ashes. His home was sold as it was in poor condition it didn't net much in profit and was barely enough to pay off the debt collectors that now sought their money from Jett. Because of this situation, Jett was terminated from his job to resolve his father's passing, he was required to leave the state for a considerable amount of time. Unsure of what to do he realized that his father still owned the motel that his grandfather had left him, which now belonged to him.

Heading out to Montana to look over this motel himself, Jett realized that the town of Hamilton was quite small and really out of the way. Bitterroot Valley was little more than a pit stop off Highway 93 and the motel was so far back and away from the town that the business it got could not have been good. Paying for the permits and transferring all the bills such as power and cable into his name he filed his business license with the city hall and was determined to make a go of this place. His intention was to use the money he made from renting out rooms to refurbish and rebuild the motel. Little did he know that he just inherited a hell motel.

Inactive: One Fateful Night (ENDED)
Name: Ivo Lorcan
Height: 5'11
Weight: 177 lbs.
Eyes: Hazel
Hair: Chestnut brown, cut short on sides.
Age: 30

Appearance: Ivo is well known for being heavily tattooed and having several piercings on his body. He has three piercings in his ear, one in the center of his ear, one on the nub of it, and one near the top. Two more piercings in his nose, it is also rumored that he has his lobes pierced but does not often wear these. Few know but many would like to find out if he has piercings lower on his body.

Tattoo-wise he is absolutely covered in them, having tattoos on his head, his hands, his neck, more covering his chest, and a few down on his legs, it is unknown if his groin area is tattooed but his back has matching tattoos as well.

Ivo is well built, and while not heavily defined in muscle tone he does have a respectable figure and a nice solid stomach which he often shows in his concerts. He does work out but not enough to maintain a highly defined body definition type.

He was born in London and because of this, his voice has a strong English accent. However, when he sings there is no indication that he has an accent at all which is one of the reasons people are so drawn to him.

Ivo knows how to take care of himself and does so often. He regularly keeps his face shaven and has no hair on his chest or back. Because he likes his arm tattoo's to easily be seen he's been known to wax his arms when needed and also grooms under his arms preventing any hair growth at all. Ivo can be quite obsessive regarding his appearance making sure his nails are groomed and he is clean-shaven from one day to the next. This includes his feet and groin area, he's a showman and his body reflects this.

History:

Ivo was born in London, and to a family that was far removed from wealth. He has three brothers and a sister which are all younger than him. Being the oldest in the family he quickly learned that he needed to provide when he could, and because he focused on this his schooling suffered quite heavily. While Ivo's childhood was not filled with abuse, it wasn't pleasant.

His lacking grades made life even harder for him and he struggled to maintain focus in school. Hanging out with a bad crowd he started to become fairly aggressive and found himself being expelled from one school to the next for fighting and his continued outburst.

In a school designed for troubled teens, he finally found his calling. Being forced into a music class, his doubts and participation were low. However, Mr. Jennings was not one to give up and started having him try different instruments while still teaching him the fundamentals of singing. Hating the standard style of instruments, he continued to fight against the idea until one day his teacher handed him an electric guitar and told him to get a feel for it. His love was immediate as was his passion to better understand it and how it worked. Shifting his focus to this class and his teacher's willingness to educate him was a life-changing event that he still credits Mr. Jennings for to this day. He learned harder music, how to use his voice and how to play the guitar and quickly improved based on the songs he liked to listen to.

Later when he informed his family, he wanted to pursue this as a career they rejected his concept immediately, encouraging him to get a real job working in construction or something else. His refusal continued to cause problems in their home as he pursued his musical dreams. Eventually, his family became fed up with his behavior and kicked him out. Not having anywhere to go and being short on cash his options were limited. Staying in London was just not working for him, there were such strong requirements to really make something of yourself there. Expectations that he just didn't meet, so he decided to try his luck in America where dreams are made, and anyone can do anything they want.

It didn't take him long to start finding small gigs in bars and other clubs where he could perform live for a small fee and tips. He was eventually approached by a producer and hungrily accepted the offer; his only problem was they wanted a full band and told him he couldn't keep using the music of others. They gave a list of suggestions, and he interviewed a bunch of people finally forming a group.

To get his name known he decided to sing cover songs with slight alterations for the start of his career but knew that if he was going to really make something of himself, he would need to start writing his own songs, or accepting songs that others had written but not produced. Which there were a lot of. With the support of his band, his producer, and a record label actually backing him he started his first tour, and it went extremely well. His popularity tripled in days, everything from his style to what and how he sang drove people to him.

This also led to more of his antics and rockstar life, feeling like he was on top of the world, problems began to build but were dealt with as quickly as they came. Instead of making his own songs as he had planned at the end of his tour, his producer decided that he should do another tour, this time even bigger and larger than before. Going as far as the Mexican border and up to New York. They really wanted his name to be widespread before he started making and releasing his own stuff. After six months on the sidelines, his tour started in earnest and his lifestyle got just as crazy if not more so than it was last time.


InActive: (Story Ended)
Name: Buddy Kennedy (Bud)
Height: 6'2
Weight: 183 lbs.
Eyes: Light Brown
Hair: Dark Brown, styled a bit wild and spiked
Age: 34

Appearance: Buddy or as he prefers to be called Bud, has an attractive physical appearance. Being well built and defined, he actually almost never works out himself. He enjoys walking and his metabolism is high enough that a simple walk gives him a definition that most dream of. He likes to be clean-shaven but has been known to sport overnight shadow when feeling lazy. He has no tattoos or body piercings at all. His stern face is complimented with a very prominent jawline and strong chin bump. Buddy has no hair on his chest or back and grooms himself well keeping what hair he does have under his arms trimmed and or removed completely, this grooming is not limited to his chest as he keeps his nails and feet along with his groin in good shape as well.

Buddy tends to wear button-up shirts and dress pants. Neither of these is super expensive but it's a style he prefers even if they are Walmart bought. He also has a fairly rough voice, and this can often make him sound upset or aggressive when he's not intending to be.

History:

Buddy Kennedy was adopted at the early age of four. The reason for his adoption would not be known to him until much later. Thankfully it wasn't because of abuse but instead because of drug use and crimes that his biological parents committed that eventually made the environment unsafe. He was soon after adopted by the Kennedys and started his life anew. He also didn't spend much time in the group home before they picked him up for adoption.

Right away Buddy showed some oddities. He was socially distant and didn't get along with others well at all. He hid under his bed to sleep for the first year, and openly wet himself during his youth but this eventually stopped of course. His adopted parents were always understanding with him and helped him adjust to his new life very quickly.

Buddy also started showing some unhealthy interest in his stepsister Peyton. Of course, this was quickly addressed by his stepparents, and it was explained to him in-depth that it was not acceptable for him to behave or think the way he was. Things calmed down after that and returned to normal however he spiked again in his late teens when she started to really develop. This time taking things too far and sneaking peeks at her at inappropriate times. This time it wasn't his parents that explained the wrongness of his actions but his friends. After becoming the butt of their jokes and being told how sick and wrong he was, he once again dropped his fascination and moved on with life. Maintaining a friendly brotherly relationship with her and nothing more than that.

In school, he was popular enough to have a circle of friends but never really excelled at anything. No sports or side classes and certainly not education. As he got older, he quickly started taking various jobs that he could handle while attending school. Smaller things like McDonald's and Burger King. This started to train his mind in how a job should be treated and how it should be handled. Giving him a poor set of work experience and bad ethical work mannerisms.

He also struggled to maintain a job longer than a few months and bounced from one to the next often. His biggest problem was his dislike for authority and his overall dedication to the job itself. If he was tired, he would sleep in, if he didn't want to go to work, he would call in. Needless to say, this caused a number of problems in his personal life as well. Struggling to keep a place of his own and relying on his parent's goodwill to take care of him. Which they did filling his head with encouragement and supportive feedback as the days ticked past.

At his current age, however, he just couldn't go to them anymore. They were strict in keeping the house clean and wanting him to find work. Making sure he saved his money instead of spending it on games or movies. Always hounding him to keep up his insurance on the cheap car he had, rather than driving around without it. This eventually caused a breakdown in their willingness to continue helping him and left with no options he contacted his sister in hopes that she could help him. To his surprise, she agreed and within the day he packed up everything he had and headed to her home.

Entering the family business with his father he quickly established himself in the company and had taken on a management role since that time. He currently works at Mason Communications which is a Marketing company designed to provide everything from Digital marketing to public relations and more.

His childhood was demanding, and he was expected to excel in school in any field he decided to take. Which included Football or other sports. He didn't have a lot of time for personal activities as his family maintained a strict conditioning process for him. Everything from mandatory piano lessons, to at-home tutoring, so he would have an edge when attending regular classes. It gave him extraordinarily little time to socialize and because of his strict upbringing, he developed more than a few quirks which are still reflected in him today.

At an incredibly youthful age, Logan was taught to hunt with his father. What originally was a pastime activity, quickly turned into a die-hard hobby. His passion for this activity only grew and he soon increased his expectations from standard game to big game. His first trip to Africa is still memorialized in his home through trophies and photos. Logan's passion for this activity only continued to grow and soon he was traveling out to remote areas alone or with his dogs to make these hunts even more challenging, sometimes staying away for weeks or even months at a time.

His adult life was not as restricted as his childhood but remained much the same as he was truly conditioned to strive for excellence at that point. He attended college at the University of Notre Dame and immediately focused on Marketing, Business and Management, and other like-styled courses though his major never shifted from Marketing. After receiving his Master's degree in Marketing he intended to go for his Doctorate but decided against it and instead focused on the company itself, accepting the job his father had offered.

Logan gained a few personality traits during his life and quickly found that he was a very dominant person. He had more than a few lovers in his life and often felt that various fetishes worked best for him, especially when the woman was submissive to his overall desires. This led Logan into a vastly different lifestyle, which he had no shame at expressing and showing, in public, around his friends, or in the privacy of his home. Openly accepting this lifestyle and all that came with it. Unfortunately, Logan could not be satisfied and often found faults with the women he was with and because of this, he was never able to settle down or maintain a long-term relationship. He had little trust in people and quickly made assumptions about them if they were attempting to befriend him or enter a relationship with him because of his financial status and background. This distrust for people is one of the reasons he travels alone when hunting, stating that he needs time away or alone to think.

Logan owns a respectable family home in the suburbs but is rarely there preferring to sleep at his uptown penthouse apartment, rather than returning to his house. It's closer to his job and doesn't require him to travel far between shifts. For all his faults and personality traits Logan is quite loyal and honest. He believes that the truth is a far more effective weapon or tool than a lie ever could be and uses it in this manner. He also isn't known for cheating or deceiving the person he might be seeing, as he is more likely to speak his mind and state that he wants something than he is to go behind someone's back and get it.

Inactive: A Dark Dystopia (STORY ENDED)
Name: Colton Black
Height: 6'3
Weight: 236lbs
Eyes: Dark Brown
Hair: Deep Brown (near black), shaved on sides
Age: 34
Classification: Predator

Appearance: Colton has oily pulled-back hair, which he keeps shaved on the sides and the back. The length of his hair reaches about the middle of his head. He also has a very thick beard which is often ungroomed and given the world at large, this is not uncommon. While he does groom it, when possible, he rarely ever shaves it as he dislikes the cold against his face. He has a very noticeable scar across his right cheek just under his eye from a knife cut. His features reflect his ethnicity, and while his accent is not thick it is noticeable that he was raised by Russian parents. He can be found often wearing a thick leather jacket and old cloth gloves with the fingers cut out. He has a black t-shirt that is dirty and has several holes in it but covers that with a chest piece of black worn leather. He also has black jeans that are just as worn as his shirt but like his chest covers these with a black leather pair of chaps to protect himself from quick thin knife cuts.

History:

Colton's father is unknown, as he was a result of a violent and brutal assault on his mother. She never spoke of who did this, but he suspected it was one of his many uncles. He was raised in the open waste and his family was large enough that they created a band of raiders. At a very young age, Colton was required to learn how to take care of himself and fight. He was taught the ways of a Predator and embraced them fully.

At the age of 9, he was standing on the front lines with his family fighting and robbing with the rest of them. His mother died a year later but the cause was unknown. During her life, she was treated very much like a slave. Used by family and friends as a sex slave or pack mule, because this was simply how things had always been, Colton never questioned it or even cared much.

He continued to learn everything he could about the raider lifestyle and fighting. By his teens, he was one of the deadliest members of their group and would often be sent out alone. One of the traits he picked up was that he strongly disliked being touched. At a young age, he was molested and eventually raped but never spoke of it. After this event, he absolutely refused to be touched by others and openly attacked any who tried to do so. The next time one of his family members got a bit randy and attempted to make use of him, he slit their throat and cut off their manhood, shoved it in their mouth then declared that he would not be used in this way by anyone.

Because of his aggression and open show of it, along with his willingness to kill his own family. Colton quickly became paranoid and believed that his family was plotting to kill him or enslave him. Anytime they met in a group he would question their motives for doing so. Especially if they looked in his direction. Instead of openly attempting to kill them, he decided it would be best to leave. While many protested his choice and attempted to stop him, he stuck with it and made his way into the wasteland alone.

Armed with the knowledge of a raider and the open aggressiveness of a predator Colton made short work of anyone he came across. He traded slaves, murdered innocents, stole, and abandoned people. At one point someone put a bounty on him to get revenge for the murder of his wife. The one thing Colton never did was sexual assault. Aside from being a victim of it himself, his desire to avoid being touched never changed.

Rumors have been heard and accepted as fact that a large settlement has cropped up in Las Vegas or what was once Las Vegas. As hoards of people headed in that direction, Colton did as well. Still traveling alone, his thinking was anywhere a large group of people gathered there were also a larger group of victims. The problem was he was on the other side of the United States, as transportation was not readily available, he planned his trip and headed out.

Notes/personality: One of the most, if not the most powerful Fey Lords there is. Lord Walcott is extremely pale like a vampire might be, his body is chilled at all times, Deep scars cover his chest and eyes. No hair grows on his body, arms, legs, or other areas, Prior to meeting Emilia Pendragon, Lord Walcott was a cruel man, he had little to no human emotions and struggled to understand even the most basic of mannerisms. It is said when Walcott kills a person he wipes them from existence, because of this how many have ever truly upset him is unknown because no one would remember them when he was finished. Walcott is extremely blunt and can often be considered rude because of this. (Does this make me look fat, = The outfit is not why you look like that.) His lack of tac, and overall failure to realize when he's being rude makes him very difficult to speak with. Of all the Fey Lords Walcott's power is considered the most dangerous and all regard him as a dangerous person because of this.

Active: Fangs and Claws
Name: Adam Salverson
Height: 6'7
Weight: 253 lbs.
Eyes: Topaz Blue
Hair: Dark Carmel Brown, (Long past shoulders.)
Age: 30
Race: Werewolf (Blue Blood)
Blue Bloods are unique types of werewolves and often considered Royals, because of this Adam has full access to his five forms, is slightly stronger than others, and heals a little faster. Normally werewolves only have access to three forms.

Appearance: Adam is a very tall and extremely well-built man. His body definition easily equals or surpasses most bodybuilders. He has beautiful straight Dark Carmel Colored hair that reached well past his shoulders and is often left wild behaving much like a mane. In addition to this Adam has a short-cut beard but typically keeps it full. He has been known to try different styles of facial hair, but this often is for humor and not as a stylish statement. His Blue eyes are Topaz in color. He has no hair on his chest or back and clear lines running along his hips.

Werewolf Forms:



Homid – This is his human form and is virtually indistinguishable from an ordinary human; in this form, he can easily travel through cities and crowds without being discovered.

Glabro – (Like Mr. Hyde but Lupine) In this form while he is still mostly human and can communicate, if necessary, though badly. He is stronger, faster, and more resilient than the Homid form but is only a shadow of his true form's killing power.



Crinos (Werewolf) – This is a true battle form. There is no solution that violence can't solve, and this form aims to do just that. Superhuman strength, speed, and one of the most efficient killing machines in the world. Humans that witness this form cannot comprehend what they've seen, and weaker-willed humans will rationalize the terrifying sight they just beheld. Those of stronger will often break into hysterics and need to be put down.



Hispo – A prehistoric throwback of Wolves. This is the very definition of a Dire Wolf and easily the size of a small pony but is a wolf and restricted to the limitations of that form.



Lupus (Wolf) – This is the true wolf form, aside from being slightly more built than a typical wolf they are virtually indistinguishable from a typical wolf. Most would mistake them for an ordinary animal or even a well-trained dog, be it a big one.



History:

Adam was born under auspicious circumstances. To others of his Clan, he is often referred to as a Blue Blood. This incestuous relationship between siblings created Adam. However, upon discovery of this forbidden and outlawed act to create a Blue Blood or Royal. Both of them were killed shortly after his birth. Adam was then taken to the Maroc (Leader of the Wolves in several local states.) Bran decided to raise the boy as his own and teach him the traditions of their kind. Unlike Bitten Wolves and Born Wolves. Adam's pure birth brought with it a number of impressive abilities compared to others. For example, he was a bit stronger and faster than most and healed faster than others. He also had access to many forms that were considered lost. Though he seldom used them. In addition to this, he found himself with remarkable resistances to unique or magical-like abilities, or so he's been told.

Because Adam was considered a Royal and was raised personally by the Maroc, it was believed he would either be given his own pack or take over as the new Maroc when Bran stepped down. During his training and his life, he excelled in violence and hunting. Quickly establishing himself as the enforcer of the Maroc and being called on to enforce laws that the Maroc set in place. For example. If a Pack Alpha got out of control and started doing things that were unacceptable the Maroc would order him to stop. If he failed to heed the Maroc's orders, Adam would be sent to deal with him personally.

Adam takes his position very seriously as well as the traditions that are involved. Many think he is too serious, but he does have a playful side that few see as he believes he needs to keep up appearances. Aside from being part of the Maroc's pack directly he never took a pack for his own. However, he felt as if Bran was grooming him and recently people have started to treat him differently. Adam had always been respected more than others because of his bloodline, and the Maroc, but now he was being treated as if everyone knew something and he was being left out of the loop.

Regarding the war, Adam had no problem aiding when called but his focus was on pack enforcement, not the war. Because of that, his knowledge of vampires is quite limited as is his exposure to them. He had killed more than a few but never with the intention of improving the war. Only in self-defense or territorial disputes. His priorities led him elsewhere.

WORLD THREAD!
Viking World (Free to Use.)​

ACTIVE: Vikings Blades of Blood
Name: Bjorn Toft
Height: 6'5
Weight: 212 lbs.
Eyes: Blue
Hair: Brown, Long, cut on sides.
Age: 25

Appearance: Bjorn is a big man, easily being one of the largest people in his family. He has a thick beard that runs down the top of his chest just above his collar bone. He has several piercings in his ear and a number of battle scars on his body. His voice is deep and reflects just how often he yells and screams. While Bjorn is not defined as we might know a bodybuilder today. There is no question he is extremely powerful and well built. Bjorn like most people of his region is a hairy man. Having a hairy chest, arms, and legs. Luckily his back is clear of it. What is present is thin rather than bear-like. He has a thick tattoo of various symbols to honor Odin, Thor, and Tyr on his right hand along with a tribal tattoo on the side of his head to honor his clan, and another on his back to honor his first raid and finally on his lower back another to honor his raiding group.

History:

Bjorn's life has not been an easy one. Born to a large family he had, a total of twelve siblings. Only three of them still remain alive and that of course does not count the unknown number of born slaves that share his bloodline, or concubines that birthed children also not part of his bloodline.

He was born to Agda, the second wife of his father Sigsteinn. At a young age, he learned of a horrid raid that took place on his village resulting in two of his brothers being slain, his father's original wife being taken, and much of the land being destroyed. Unlike the others in his family, the stories of Bjorn are still told to this day about his desire to wield an axe. When he was born as part of the rights passed onto him by the Gothi (priest), an axe was laid on his side. Still a baby it is said he reached out and gripped it. Unable to lift the axe he simply held it and screamed and cried when they took it away. The Gothi (priest) expressed that this was a sign and that Tyr had blessed him.

Children are raised to stay away from their fathers and adult affairs. Learning to play rough and listening to stories as they were passed down. However, Bjorn was anything but a typical child. He practiced with his axe daily and long into the night. He once swung his axe so many times that his arm became numb and was unable to be used. He was told to stop and rest, but later that night was seen outside using his other arm and continuing to practice. It wasn't enough for him to know how to fight, he desired to be strong. Because of that, he would help around the village often, attempting to lift or drag things that most children wouldn't even bother with. He did this of his own accord and continued to do so for much of his life.

At the age of 10, a vicious illness swept through the village, causing various deaths and destroying the crops. At the time it was unknown what the cause was however Bjorn lost both his mother and five of his siblings to this sickness. It was later revealed that this was the work of a curse on their land and the foul magic of a dark Sidir (witch) after destroying the dark symbol they had hoped the curse would leave but it did not. Years of starvation and sickness nearly wiped the village out before it finally departed, and life could return to normal. (Early Bovine Plague.)

The last two brothers in his family died in combat while performing local raids on other villages in the area.

Unlike most children who could not raid or take part in combat until they reached the age of 18 (forum rules.) Bjorn was taken into combat at a very young age. 12 in fact and continued to go into battle ever since. He is easily become one of the most skilled and powerful warriors in his village and was eventually awarded the right to form his own raiding group and own his own ship. Which he called the Bone Hunters.

Bjorn was married, he may even have a child with that woman who was named Brina. She was quite young when they met and eventually married when she reached 18 years of age. (forum rules.) However, the marriage would not last. Riddled with arguments and disagreements, the two fought heavily about slaves, gatherings, his going out at night, his desire to raid, while he did help with domestic duties, she felt she was deserving of more. Eventually, their arguments reached a boiling point and she physically struck him. While at a gathering hall. While around others Bjorn proceeded to seriously beat his wife. It took three Drengr (Warriors.) to pull him off her. Rather than wait until they struck each other three times it was determined that they would be permitted to divorce, and she was immediately sent back to her own village. At which point Bjorn swore off wives and stated he would find suitable concubines and breed this way.

Much to his family's disapproval, which they were firmly against. They had attempted to wed him multiple times since then and each time ended in failure and outright refusal. His father and brothers the two that remained continued to inform him of what a disgrace it was for him to be without a wife. However, Bjorn was firm in that he was not suited for married life, and that no woman could handle him. Little did he know what the Norns (3 Fates.) had in store for him.

INACTIVE: The Deal (Story ENDED)
Name: Griffin Steele
Hair: Chestnut brown
Height: 6'7
Weight: 192 lbs.
Eyes: Light Blue
Age: 41
Personality: Griffin can be very charming when he wants to be. He has been seen as engaging, thoughtful, considerate, and quite charismatic. However, behind closed doors, Griffin is an altogether different person. He can be quite Jealous, very controlling, violent, emotionally abusive, and will blame others for his behavior.

Appearance: Griffin has an athletic build. He will often sport overnight shadow or a few days of growth but prefers to keep his facial hair short if not completely removed. He has no real body hair at all, this includes under his arms and his legs. He has a nice voice but can drop its tone very quickly giving most drill instructors a run for their money. He will often dress in nice clothing but does not go out of his way to were suits and ties unless he has to.

History:

As a child, Griffin was anything but wealthy. His father had left them when they were still very young, and his mother worked two jobs to maintain a small two-bedroom apartment that he shared with his younger brother. By the time Griffin was six he was cooking breakfast and cleaning the house regularly.

At sixteen years of age, he was already starting to show a lot of unusual signs. His school was quick to take notice of this, but his mother was far too busy to properly handle it and get him the help he needed. Some of his earliest signs were antisocial behaviors, deceitfulness, and unstable or explosive anger. He held extreme idealizations but no longer hold such views. More than anything else Griffin held a very narcissistic personality which he still maintains even to this day. His grandiose demeanor and sense of self-importance are only inflated by his wealth and success later in life.

Struggling through school Griffin still manage to get a job under the table at the age of 15 and made the most out of that job painting homes and stripping walls. Most of his money went to help his family survive from one day to the next. His brother Jeff was not so dedicated but excelled in school and was quite popular. His dreams were bigger with each year, always trying his hands at sports. While Jeff was talented his talent was never impressive enough to match his ambitions. Because of this Griffin and Jeff did not get along and often fought about responsibilities.

Griffin's real problems started when he was given a scholarship for welfare and low-income advancement. Qualifying wasn't a problem and at the time Griffin did not even consider how a college would react to a charity scholarship. Which would lead to hardships and a lot of mockery during his time there. He attended a local college and majored in Business, with a minor in finance.

As he was introduced to women for the first time. Never having the time or much luck with women in high school. He found himself enthralled by the idea, but immediately took things too far. He was accused of sexual assault, harassment, and domestic violence. He agreed to leave school with nothing but his bachelor's degree if they agreed to drop the charges which they did. At the time they believed this was the best solution for everyone and did not have to result in nasty court battles to end his scholarship.

Griffin quickly turned his sexual frustrations to prostitutes but was barely managing. Not wanting to get stuck behind a desk he took a train and moved to New York, New York. This is when he really started to make a name for himself. Working low-end jobs in blue chips and living in a small run-down apartment. When he had enough to invest in various stocks he did so. What extra money he had he spent on prostitutes and quickly learned that his desires to harm these women and control them were acceptable so long as the money was right.

While he never killed anyone his abusive behavior continued for many years unchecked. While that happened, his stocks started to pay off and quickly. Before he knew it, he was being given investment opportunities that he had never dreamed were possible. Griffin was no fool though, social media was a big payout but a risky venture. What wasn't risky was the laziness of people. That was something that would never change. Because of this, he began investing in computer companies that marketed games. Then for the next two years slowly began to invest in Hollywood markets.

Unable to maintain a stable relationship Griffin didn't even try. Eventually, however, he was considered to be one of the most successful brokers in New York. Packing up his life he moved to Hollywood and decided to take a more direct approach to his investments. Here he was able to purchase a respectable mansion. Invest in well-known companies and future projects that might be taking place. His success only continued to grow and with his excess of funds, he began to invest in what he considered long-term ventures. Hotels, restaurants, and nightclubs.

Griffin had left most people with an impression that he was a respectable and notable business tycoon. However, with his darkness left unchecked for so many years, what happened behind closed doors quickly spiraled out of control. Wanting to dive deeper and deeper into his depravity, Griffin began to make deals with very shady individuals many of whom had ties to well-known organized crime families. Taking a private jet to a small island and enjoying all the pleasures his victim could afford him. Even if someone believed he had done these things, with his wealth, influence, and his ability to do this outside of the U.S. there was very little that could be done about it.

ACTIVE: Trafficked
Name: Marco Bellotti
Hair: Dark Brown (Near Black)
Height: 6'4
Weight: 186lbs.
Eyes: Hazel
Age: 35
Personality: Having a strong personality and some issues with control. Marco can at times be difficult to speak with. He is not known to have a friendly or empathetic outlook on life and can at times be quite rude. While he is not prone to violence, he is not above using it to accomplish his goals.

Appearance: Marco is 90% Italian, and this shows in the color of his olive skin and his other features. While he is lighter in completion than most Italians there is no question that he is one. He is well built for a man his age but not overly so. He prefers to dress practical but will dress up when the need arises. He often has a well-groomed beard. When he is not speaking his own language which is Italian, he speaks with a thick accent that is difficult not to notice.

History:

Marco Bellotti was born into a wealthy family and most of his life was spent living in wealth. His vineyard has been passed down from father to son for as long as he can remember. He is an only child and was spoiled when he was at home. At seventeen years of age, his mother died from a sudden and acute heart attack, and this prompted Marco to start taking better care of himself.

His father was never the same after that and quickly started deteriorating. The Vineyard was held by an estate manager while Marco finished up his schooling His major in school was Weapon engineering and was a specialty course under mechanical engineering. He attended his schooling in America at Columbia University in New York, NY.

Later in life after finishing college he returned and took control of his vineyard. Being forty miles away from the closest town or city is exactly what he wanted and was a life he was more accustomed to. While Marco is not filthy rich, he is well above the standard for the upper class. When he is not working his Vineyard, he is a legal arms dealer, helping to design and build weapons before selling them to local governments. He has most often worked with Lockheed Martin, but this is not his only client.

Marco prefers for things to be done in a particular way and can be quite obsessive when it comes to assuring these standards are met. While he has never delved into the crime aspect of things he is not above doing so if it means getting what he wants. Marco can be quite violent and has taken several courses on self-defense, being a formidable opponent for most people. While his skills are not equal to or greater than an established MMA fighter. It would not be impossible to think he could hold his own against one at least for a short time.

His father died when he turned 27 leaving him alone. He has fancied himself something of a ladies' man but his need for control has always prevented him from maintaining any kind of long-term commitment that wasn't invested in his wealth. His lack of trust in women and his desire to control things have kept him at arm's length. Those who have shown interest in him he's considered to be after his money. Even if at times that was not true, he was simply unwilling to take the chance.

Active: Broken World
Name: Grimshaw Harken (Grim)
Height: 6'2
Weight: 184 lbs.
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Sandy Brown w/Grey
Age: 45
Classification: Predator

Appearance: Grim has sandy brown hair with spots of grey starting to flick through parts of it. He typically has overnight stubble or more but does attempt to keep his face groomed when able. His hair is long and reached his cheekbones with waves and various curls near the back. His dark eyes show someone that has been close to death many times. Grim often looks like he is scowling, but those who know him well can easily spot the subtle expression of emotions that scream what he's feeling as loudly as a newborn child.

History:

Grim was born to a woman who had been the victim of a raid on their settlement. She was already pregnant by that time. It is believed his mother died in childbirth but if this is true or not is unknown. He never cared to know nor attempted to find out.

His childhood was as horrific as one might have assumed it was. Raised in the raiding group of predators known as the Wasteland Razors. He was immediately educated to collect water, empty waste buckets, clean up after people, and more. This torturous life of abuse maintained itself until he was in his teens. When his job description changed to include the personal use of his body for others. After over a year of this additional attention. Grim finally snapped and killed one of the men who had sought him out. Instead of fleeing or fearing the consequences he stood proudly over the bleeding corpse and waited for his life to end.

What the Wasteland Razors saw, however, was a man who no longer wanted to be a victim. Which prompted them to start grooming him for the harsh conditions of the waste. This included vicious fights with other captured members in the camp. Within a few short years, he became a well-established and brutal fighter and killer of humankind.

Grim believed in the values of the Wasteland Razors and continued to believe in them for many years. Those too weak to be of use should not be allowed to function on their own. Those who have but cannot keep what they have do not deserve to have it. These kinds of twisted moral views were conditioned deeply into Grim. Which he always embraced and used when going on raids, attacks, and hunts.

The crimes against humanity that Grim had committed over his long life were far too numerous to count. He may have children in the world, many in fact though he would not know if he did or not. Grim never became the leader of his group but he did become a trusted and respected commander of it. While ranks were not exactly used it was implied those who could lead would do so, and Grim fell into this category fully.

ACTIVE: Forbidden Love!
Name: Jason Henderson
Height: 6'2
Weight: 211 lbs.
Eyes: Green
Hair: Dark Brown
Age: 42
Occupation: Steelyard Worker/Grinder/Wielder

Appearance: Jason is a well-built man for his age, aside from his job aiding in helping him stay fit, he also works out when he can. He often sports unkempt facial hair and wears glasses. He has a deeper voice and a stern gaze when he looks at someone for a prolonged amount of time it can make them feel uncomfortable. Jason has no tattoos but does have several scars on his left leg and one on his back.

History:

Jason came from a dysfunctional and abusive home. His father was highly abusive to his mother and at the age of thirteen when she died in a fatal car accident, it is believed she was arguing with him on the phone. The abuse that he suffered at his father's hand was unreasonably aggressive and without purpose. Telling him to finish his schoolwork, then assaulting him for not cleaning the house an hour later.

Additionally, it is believed that Jason suffered sexual assault under his father, but this was never proven and rather suggested by those around him. At a young age Jason realized that if he wanted to stop the abuse, he would need to start becoming someone that others feared. This led him to a life of hard work. Unfortunately, he lacked the focus and attention needed to attend college and instead took on side jobs that others struggled with. Construction work, road work, pipeline work, and finally his job at the steelyard.

Jason realized very quickly that he had anger problems but could never quite get control over this becoming an abuser himself. He has been arrested multiple times in his youth for fighting in bars and domestic violence. He also had a very possessive and jealous personality which did not work well with his girlfriends. Eventually, he met his wife, and for a little while that worked. However, his drinking, partying with friends to unwind, cheating, and unfaithful nature caused many problems. Which reached a peak when he started abusing her as well. Throwing her down to the ground, slapping her, and more.

Fearful of what he would do with their daughter the mother took her kid and moved away, filing for divorce and leaving the state. After she passed in a tragic car accident it was assumed his daughter would come home to him. However, they couldn't find him and as a result, she was turned over to relatives or a foster home for several years.

Considering the large number of failures Jason had, paying his bills, his child support, and staying ahead while maintaining a respectable credit score was some of his good points. Jason was no fool with money and believed that paying his bills had to be a priority. He also wasn't afraid of hard work and maintained a job for as long as they would have him suffering under some horrid conditions at times but always stuck with it. Until the company moved, shut down, or let people go.

Getting his first house after finding a stable job he continued to make payments until he was able to actually pay it off. He has since maintained his yard, and the house, keeping it clean and well-groomed. But he lives alone, he knows that he has anger problems and any relationships he's attempted to start have failed because of this. Jason continues to work to this day and is waiting for the day he can retire. He is not a rich man and would be considered middle-class at best. He absolutely hates drugs and gang violence and has very strong opinions regarding this. He does not however have a problem with prostitution and has made use of these services several times though recently has stopped because of increased police presence.
