Name:Equinox Ry
Age:Seventeen years old.
Personality:Equinox, like his sunny counterpart, derives his name from a naturally occurring earth phenomenon. Equinox, or “Quin” as Solstice likes to call him, is a stoic, quiet boy who prefers sticking close to the walls. Despite his introverted nature, Equinox finds fulfilment in helping others (indirectly, that is. Quin’s palms get sweaty just thinking about replying to another person’s gratitude).
It is Equinox’s kindness, however, that leads to his imprisonment.
Criminal Offense:Treason, Assaulting a peace officer
History:Equinox admired his father. He was the Ark’s chief engineer, working tirelessly day in and day out to maintain the state-of-the-art ship.
It was through his father that Equinox found out what was wrong.
Thomas Ry had been aggravated that night, worried. He made his son promise not to tell…but news like this could not be kept secret.
The Ark was dying; its life supports failing. And if Thomas and the others couldn’t figure out how to save the ship, everyone else would follow.
Solstice had offered to help. Being Councilman Evans’ son had its perks, and getting past security and into the Ark’s communication systems was one of them.
Not long after the message was sent did the guards find them. Both boys fought hard, managing to bring a couple of the officers down. That was until one of them pulled out a laser knife and swiped across Equinox’s face.
Soon after Equinox found himself face-to-face with his very own isolation unit.
Relationships:Best friend of Solstice Evans
Other:Equinox suffers from periodic anxiety attacks- which ain’t that hella cool.
