Female

Closeted Bisexual

Single

Eldest daughter of the Montgomery family

Known for her radiant beauty, Emilia stands at a respectable 1.71m, or 5'6". With her usual heels however, the girl can exceed heights of 5'8" or even more. With a slim pear shaped figure; her waist thin but hips wide, Emilia maintains it by yoga on a daily basis, almost to the point of obsessiveness.
Emilia's main attribute, however, is her face. Or more notably, her eyes.

Bright crystal blue eyes, framed with dark brown lashes. The shade varies, with flecks of grey if you look closely. Emilia's lips are a sweet shade of pink, found with a natural pout. Her hair is long and naturally wavy, the light blonde locks falling halfway between her shoulder and chest. Her skin is unblemished and unmarred, her appearance a flawless finish.

Emilia also has a couple of tattoos, most hidden under her clothes. One notable tattoo can be seen on her wrist, a nod towards her astrological sign: pisces.

Emilia doesn't have a single style that she follows. Her closet ranges from the grungiest outfit to the softest, 'girliest' dress one girl can own. Typically, however, Emilia wears pastel or monochromatic colours, styles ranging depending on the day and her mood. She also owns multiple pairs of heels and wedges, all for different occasions. It's also to be noted that Emilia wears the big brands, the designer clothing to showcase her wealth. Accessory-wise, Emilia tends to stick to small, simple earrings and cage rings. Makeup-wise, Emilia tends to stick to the natural or nude shades: light pinks or browns to emphasise her lips or eyes, but usually seen with a thick coat of dark, waterproof mascara.

Despite Emilia's soft, gentle appearance and day-dreaming ditsy persona, it's best not to completely believe what is to be seen. Her soft smile can easily twist into a cruel one, her gentle personality into a vindictive bitch, who'll stop at nothing to destroy those that cross her. Her cruel side is not as known, and those that hear the rumours tend not to believe it, falling for her sweet persona and the cycle repeats itself again.

To say that Emilia is a believer is an understatement. She loves reading all things astrological, and having her future read. She doesn't care if others don't believe it or call her dim-witted for it, Emilia loves reading the predictions, especially seeing when it comes true (which, surprisingly happens quite often).

While Emilia isn't book smart, or the most intelligent one in the room (she's of average, however), she prides herself on her creativity and people-skills. Usually, that translates to thinking up revenge or anything unpleasant for those that have crossed her. Anyway, she has two highly intelligent siblings, no point trying to compete in a race with a broken leg, right?

Emilia is quite the chatty, extroverted individual, adding to her ditzy persona that she puts up often. She uses her appearance to almost fool individuals (mostly working on men) into trusting her and eventually manipulating that trust into something ugly when she requires.

She's also quite the restless spirit. She's always seen pacing or tapping her foot, performing any action rather than sitting still. While she hates staying still - even in her sleep, Emilia is known for moving a lot during her sleep, resulting in her crows nest of a hair in the mornings - Emilia doesn't care if others around her are lazy. It's up to them to do their duties, not for her to go after them. Her loyalties lies with her family and her family only. So far, no one has managed to gain Emilia's trust long enough to for her to be loyal to them; she hasn't been given a reason to do so.

One more thing to note about Emilia is that she's highly competitive, and if the incentive is worth it, she isn't afraid of going through extreme lengths to win.

Emilia has been, and always will be daddy's little princess. Even as a child, Emilia would follow her father around and prefer his company, that habit following to her later years even if its mostly unintentional. Don't get me wrong, Emilia loves her mother to bits, but she will always be known to be the little duckling that followed daddy around.

As a child, Emilia could sense emotions, though instead of realising it wasn't her own, she was a ray of sunshine when she experienced happiness, gloomy when sad, or frightened to death for no apparent reason. Sometimes her fear even followed her to her dreams, often shaping the once beautiful imagination into a dark, dangerous place that no kid should endure. Her nightmares would go so bad that she had to be put onto medication until Emilia could learn how to control her powers enough to be able to keep control of her dreams, or enough so the nightmares aren't as bad.

With the birth of her younger sister came competition for her father's attention. A childish Emilia sulked and had been an absolute nightmare whenever Victoria had stolen her father's attention away from her, often acting out like a spoilt child. This is one phase of her life she wishes to forget, to keep buried and never talk about it ever again. The embarrassment is too strong.

Emilia's love for astrology came on the day she almost drowned to death during an innocent trip to the beach with some friends. Even though Emilia had read the predictions that fateful morning, responding with an eyeroll and a scoff, the girl's leg cramped up while in water and she eventually began drowning, at least until she was saved. To this day, she has no idea who saved her.

Her life in education was somewhat an average one. Unless she put her mind into it, Emilia's grades remained average. Her strengths lie in anything where she could study the human behaviour, especially in subjects like psychology or sociology.

Emilia was harassed by a group of boys during high school. It was nothing dangerous, but just a couple of guys who thought low of women, which was apparent with their lewd gazes and sharp tongues. While Emilia never told anyone about it, just waiting till the guys found someone else to harass, somehow Julian managed to figure it out. It frightened her as the group brought a knife to an impromptu fist fight. To this day, Emilia still feels guilty as she sees the scar on her brother's lip, and while she appreciates his actions, Emilia doesn't stop herself from calling him an idiot for putting himself in harms way for her.

Even though Emilia is not the one taking over daddy's empire, her brother Julian will be instead, Emilia isn't angry about it. Instead, while Emilia isn't completely involved with the family business, she helps out in her own interesting way. Taking a job as the Mayor's secretary. While its not the most glamorous job, Emilia takes her position as an advantage for her family. With access to the Mayor's dealings and folders, Emilia can easily keep an eye on him, and immediately tell her father should the Mayor step out of line.

Empathy: Emilia has the power to sense the people around her's emotion, at least to a certain degree. If she focuses her powers enough, it is possible for Emilia to project her own feelings onto others, but it takes too much energy for her to do so, so she uses it sparingly.

She can only sense happiness, fear, anger and sadness, but she cannot know what exactly causes the feelings unless she sees the individual. Emilia also tends to get a lot of nightmares, especially if she senses fear. Emilia is known to get a lot of nightmares because of this.

Way too many to count, but I know that Natalie Dormer is the absolute best.

Devan Anders Edmond

Devan prefers to be called Anders to anyone who he does not know well.
He is called 'Hawk's Eye,' by some individuals because of his prowess with guns.

23

Male

Heterosexual

Single

Oldest son of the Edmond family

He stands at average of 5'8, a bit taller than his father. He prefers to dress in a loose and unfitting manner for a mafiaso, usually donning a suit with a hanging tie. His hair is also left in a tangled mess, much to the dismay of his parents. His only fixed his attire on important social events for his family, at the behest of his mother.

He also wears a necklace, a wooden carving with words etched inside when opened, not many know what's inside, and Devan would keep it that way. He also wears a few rings around his hands, mostly with grey tints. Has a silver tinted earring on his left ear, and a small tattoo of a clover on his left hand.

Socialising.
Honesty.
Integrity.
Techonology.
Crude, or bad jokes/puns.
Supernatural/Occult stuff.
Snow.

Anyone disrespecting his family members. (Doesn't care if it's him.)
People who talk/interrupt over others.
Individuals who have no clue about gun control.
Pride.
Being tricked.
Unnecessary murder.
People who smoke next to other people.

Honing his marksmanship, he spends a lot of time in the gun range. In tangent with his powers, makes a deadly combination.
Hand to hand practice, given his father's powers, he had been forced to train with his father just in case he get's disarmed.
Has a collection of bullets in his room that he expands everyday.

Skipping stones when he's thinking.
Fixing his clothes when nervous.
Tapping his hand on any surface whilst listening to someone.

Ironically, heights.
His family dying.

Usually found with a goofy smile/grin on his face to those that know him. Devan is narcassistic to a certain degree, taking longer than normal to stare at himself in the mirror. He gives off a lazy vibe to those around him because of how he dresses and carries himself, however this isn't true as he is very focused on his goals. He is also careless to an extent, even borderline clumsy when he's not focusing on what he does as he likes to let his mind wander. His insightfulness stems from his powers, with his father advising him to observe people, as Devan can easily do it, and so he can pick out miniscule details from a scene, even having photgraphic memory. His Naivety stems fromt he fact that he believes some things does not need bloodshed, and thinks the 'families' fighting one another is tasteless and unnecessary, however continues fighting for his family.

He also has a talent for marksmanship, luckily matching his power of 'Mind's Eye'. His talent was found when he was younger, at about thirteen years old, where he easily hit a target a great distance away. Since then he's had a certain love for marksmanship and guns in particular, even starting a bullet collection, growing to a respectable degree.

He has a switch, when he's called to do... less than savoury things, his eyes dim to a lifeless color, doing his job as efficiently and quickly as possible. This side of his personality was developed to help cope with the things his family does.

Mind's Eye or 360 Kinectic Vision.
Devan has the power to see in every direction surrounding him. There is almost none that can sneak behind him without him noticing.

Sensory overload, if Devan absorbs too much information from all around him, it causes nosebleeding in overuse and may even cause migraines or even falling unconscious in extreme cases.

At a young age his father had always told him all about his 'gift' and how lucky he was to have the power he has. There was always a high expectation for him, because of his talent and powers. He was rigorously trained by his father in CQC, and also visited the gun range in the early ages of life. He was said to 'inherit' his family, although he personally thinks the job would be better down by his younger brother.

One of the earliest incedents in his childhood that springs up in his mind is the first time he overused his power. He was out in a forest, his father training him to use his powers, but unfortunately pushed him too hard. His father ordered him to expand his vision farther than usual, a little bit farther than normal. The bright array of colors and light all flooded to his mind, and everything went dark. There was too much information for his brain to process at that given time and he was hospitallized for a few weeks, his mother strongly reprimanding his father for his 'pushing.'

Although his father trained him, and was generally callous, he knew that it was for the good of the family, rather than him alone. He wanted to strengthen the family, for when any danger arrives. Devan had made it his goal to protect his own family, but still believes that he's not fit to lead it. During the recent years of the 'drug' that the three families have been fighting about, he knew his father was right, and he set out to help his family in any way possible.

In his honest opinion, he believes the war between families avoidable and redundant and seeks to find a more 'peaceful' way to settle conflicts, much to his naivety, but when he needs to, gets the job done. He will never let his family members know his view of things.

Donovan Montgomery

Don
It's a shorter version of his name and he loves how it makes him feel like a mafia boss

21

Male

Heterosexual

Uh... It's complicated

Middle Son

Donovan may be a free, casual spirit but he still takes careful care of his appearance. Smooth, white skin is graced with not a single hair (except for his head, of course) nor blemish. He "finely crafts", as he puts it, his hair into what it is and takes thirty minutes to get ready. He also "sculpts" his beard every morning, "crafting" it into what it is. He stands at a tall 6"2 and is more of a lean man, not overtly muscly but not skinny. His style is very casual and comfort based, he cares more about his actual physical appearance than the clothes he wears. He could be seen walking around in black sweatpants, long t-shirts, sandals and a beanie. He can always be seen carrying a long, black case containing his bokken and hakama. He has a scar right on his left eyebrow from when he was nicked by some thug in a street alley. He has two earrings, one on each ear.

Donovan is known as a free spirit for a reason. He is known for his lazy attitude and rarely moves from his little hill in the local park, seen lying there and watching as the clouds pass over his head. He is not known for being motivated, quite the opposite actually, and can be seen getting dragged from his hill towards his house for chores or meetings. He sleeps till he can sleep no more and can almost never be woken up by someone else. He doesn't do much and he tries to avoid the fighting although the occasional opportunistic rival criminal will try to sneak up on him and kill him. This will usually end in a bokken to the face.

He doesn't talk about it much but he is addicted to the feeling of slo-mo, the slowing of his perception of time through listening to classical music. It is like a drug to him, the high adrenaline rush and the relaxing feeling of sleeping for hours afterwards makes him feel good. Although it is overworking his eyes and he will eventually lose his ability to see, he loves the feeling of being able to watch everything in detail. To see the clouds crawl slowly across the sky, the bird flying past him, the sound of the soft laughter of children as they run past him. Mix that in with his almost constant use of marijuana to forget about his problems, he is a very problematic person although most wouldn't realise it. He knows this, scolding himself for using it too much but can't do anything but enjoy the warmth he feels when using it.

The only things that get him going is cooking, his kendo and violin lessons, watching anime and baking cupcakes. Otherwise, he is seen with his earphones in, watching as the effects of slo-mo take place. He talks a lot when he isn't doing any of those things and doesn't take things seriously but he could also be called excessively modest at times, even self-deprecating.

Donovan's main power is the ability to perceive reality in a slower way than it currently is when listening to classical music. This can be used to see the subtle changes in someone's movements, analyse their facial expressions, react to the situation with quick reflexes and be able to think ten steps ahead of the opponent. With his bokken, he can easily deflect knife and hand strikes, following up with a strike of his own. This ability raises his adrenaline to ludicrous levels hence the addiction. This ability doesn't work very well during fights when his bokken isn't in hand due to the high amount of adrenaline and energy being released when the ability is used in combat, the bokken acts as a conductor to let him course energy through so it doesn't stress him too much. With his violin, he can enrapture an entire audience of non-power users within a fifty foot radius, making them pause whatever they are currently doing and go still. They enter a coma-like state and is in this state as long as the music is playing. When the music stops, anyone who was captured by the music will be in shock. This ability does not work on power users.

Don's main ability has the potential to kill him or, in the very least, blind him. During slo-mo, the eye muscles are being strained and pulled at, continuously sending signal after signal to the brain. This high amount of stress can lead to serious headaches and incapacitates him if he uses it too much. It also doesn't mean he is necessarily faster or stronger, it just means he has a chance to have a faster reaction time. If his body is not up to it, he will not be able to dodge bullets. An easy way to get rid of it? Take his earphones off or get rid of his bokken. The violin power does not work on power-users and requires the user to stay in one spot. This gives his opponents the potential to be sneak up on him. And for both, it is the ease of access. He cannot carry his violin case around. Too heavy for daily use. And his bokken, while lighter, still needs to be taken out of it's case to be used. Without it, his main power cannot be used.

Donovan was born into the Montgomery family and was always a lazy child. Right from the get go, he never caused trouble for his parents, being one of the calmer siblings in the the family. He was always laying around back then, never doing anything more than eat, shit and sleep even when he turned into a toddler. He was the kind of baby that woke up suddenly, looks you in the eye, gets bored and goes back to sleep. He was constantly napping and the only thing he ever got excited about was when he first listened to classical music. It was a very quiet afternoon and Mr. Montgomery was looking after his son in work. Bored out of his mind, his father turned the radio on to a piece by Mozart. He took an instant liking to it and it was the only thing that seemed to take him out of the trance of eternal laziness. Although this was a heart touching moment, he had never really connected with any of his family except for his mother.

In school, he was very popular but was distracted too much to even notice. Most of his teachers thought that he had serious potential for great things but due to how he could easily be distracted by the smallest of things, he never realised them and they checked it up as a short attention span. In reality however, it was due to his newfound slo-mo ability that made him distracted, everything he could study in much more detail and everything was slowed down. Even then, the adrenaline was pumping inside of him although not as much as he is currently, the headaches weren't common back then. This was when he found his second hobby. Cooking. Baking was the love of his life. There are photos of him wearing his miniature fluffy apron, eyes wide as he squatted in front of the oven, watching as a batch of brownies heated.

He began violin lessons at the age of thirteen and realised his second ability when he felt his fingertips tingle at the touch of the violin. He instantly connected to the instrument, man and violin becoming one. At the same time, he started his kendo lessons. This also started his almost rabid obsession with anime and the struggle to find self-control as he took his first drag of marijuana. The mix of drug usage, slo-mo addiction, laziness and emotional struggle for self-discipline made him a mess inside, resulting in the mess he is today. The carefree, light hearted individual with all the potential to reach the clouds, only to be shackled by the very power he was born with.

I mean like, dude. Kevin Hart though. And fun fact, Don is a virgin.

Aaron Gideon Oliver Flint

N/A (Unless 'Mayor', or 'Mayor Flint' is applicable)

43

Male

Heterosexual

Married to Elyse Flint

Mayor of Millbrook

Aaron stands at a somewhat average height of 5'10, and is of an equally average build. Certainly not muscular, he is neither particularly skinny, instead being somewhere healthily between the two. His face often wears a grim expression, a sharp contrast from the upbeat image he naturally conveyed before his election to the Mayor's Office. Most notably, his eyes have a particular, almost indescribable sadness contributing to his negative demeanour. His face is generally clean shaven, though occasionally sports slight stubble. As for his hair, it is kept neatly short and generally styled the same way daily, it does not appear as though much more time is spent on his appearance than the average person, in contrast to many politicians of the day.

His choice of clothing reflects his position as Mayor, almost always seen wearing a suit of some sort. The suits themselves, however, are not necessarily designer or top of the range, and instead appear far more 'average'. This may be the result of recommendations from his political advisors so that he may appear more 'in common' with the citizens of Millbrook, albeit it has to be acknowledged that he is not especially wealthy, and never has been. Certainly, he has a healthy income as a result of his post, though he continues to follow the same spending habits he always has and instead simply saves up a large bulk of his wealth.

Failng in his duty as Mayor
Losing his wife

Aaron is a deeply conflicted man. Where he once stood for morality and justice, he finds himself torn in the situation he is now in. How can he preach ideals of integrity and honesty when he himself has betrayed those values through his association with the Montgomery family in his campaign to be Mayor? Indeed, he recognises that it is a direct result of his election to the post of Mayor that has allowed not only the Montgomery family, but the Davidon and Edmond families also, to reach new heights of influence and power, neither of which will be clawed back by the government without a fight. He was led to believe by August that the activities he would encourage law enforcement to turn a blind eye to would be largely innocent, and go unnoticed. For the first year, perhaps, this was true. There has, however, been a growing escalation of violence that has led to untold suffering, ever since the release of a new drug that has been spreading like a virus around the city. The Mayor's Office recieves letters daily from residents of Millbrook begging for the government to intervene, and for law enfrocement to protect them, as is their duty. Aaron, however, finds himself unable to fully commit to a campaign against crime and the three families, for in doing so he would surely destroy his reputation, and himself.

He is by no means a bad man, and as he sees it, he has been used by the Montgomery family. His naivety has led to his current circumstance, and he blames himself for having ever allowed the Montgomery family to begin their illicit acts without the full consequence of the law. He, however, believed that the implementation of the schemes and programmes he had thought up to economically aid the poor would outweigh this cost, and he has been proven very, very wrong. The schemes he has implemented have been merely washed aside by the violence, and those who were already suffering, are now suffering even more. How much longer he will be able to stand by remains to be seen.

His wife, perhaps, is the only person who knows the true extent of his inner conflict, and she is undoubtedly his strongest support. Without her, his collapse would be all but assured.

N/A

N/A

Born in the city of Millbrook to a family living comfortably in the middle class, Aaron was only a few years younger than the patriarch of the Montgomery family, August. Attending the same school, the two never quite interacted and only heard of one another in passing, with neither being aware of the close ties they would develop in the near-future that would alter not only their lives, but the course of Millbrook.
-
Aaron never particularly had political ambition, quite far from it. Certainly, he was never a man of great ambition, and had far more humble aims of working in social care or a related career, finding great satisfaction in aiding the needy. It is likely that his father, Cedric Flint, inspired this passion within Aaron, being a notable philanthropist himself around Millbrook. Cedric Lane was even named after him, a small nod toward his charitable efforts from the community of Millbrook.
No doubt inspired by the gratitude and respect held by Millbrook for his own father, Aaron felt it only natural to follow in his fathers footsteps as it were, in his own and admittedly small way.

Completing high school with average grades, he was offered a place at the local university for Millbrook after successfully applying. He had applied, and indeed been accepted, to universities beyond the city, though he found himself unable to leave Millbrook behind. Today, he often describes this longing to stay in Millbrook as his deep desire not to 'leave the job undone', though how greatly this is exaggerated for the press is anybody's guess. It was at university that Aaron came into contact with August Montgomery properly, with August being in his final year of university just as Aaron entered his first. August was assigned to Aaron as his 'mentor', what was in essence a university-run programme to better integrate the new arrivals into campus life. Aaron had heard of the Montgomery family, indeed if there's one thing that can be guaranteed among the people of Millbrook, it is that they are all aware of the three families. Montgomery, Davidson and Edmond.

The two never particularly developed a close relationship, something Aaron is keen to reinforce to any who inquire as to his relations with the Montgomery family, and indeed he is keen to dust any relations he once had with August under the carpet. Yet the two did in fact know one another, undeniably, and no matter how much Aaron tries to bury this stage in his history, it continues to taint his image for those willing to dig deep enough to this day. The truth, that Aaron himself will never admit, is that he admired August. His intellect, his dialogue, his ambition. He radiated the image of success, despite achieving relatively little in his youthful life so far, and it was August who first planted the seeds of political ambition in the mind of young Aaron. It is possible, and in fact likely, that August had planned the next ten years of his life to perfection, and Aaron was a part of that plan. For August knew that if the Montgomery family was to truly succeed, to gain the upper hand on the other families that look to bring them down, they needed the political establishment behind them. The only problem was, the establishment at this time was firmly against any and all activities considered to be 'organised crime', and would come down hard on any convicted of such. The solution then, to August at least, was simple. He needed to re-create the political environment of Millbrook, and he would acheive that through Aaron.

Throughout their brief year together at university, August would subtly ensure Aaron was aware of the wider problems in the city. He spoke of his admiration for Aaron's desire to help those at the bottom through social work, but told him the 'hard truth', as he often put it, that unless there was a man willing to take on the city itself and handle these problems from the top, there would be an endless cycle. An endless cycle of men, like Aaron, achieving in the end, nothing.

The idea stuck with Aaron long after August left university, and indeed the two had little to no contact after August left university. Yet after completing his course at university, and after two years of a career in social care, Aaron finally convinced himself that his mentor at university all of those years ago, was correct. He quit his job, and contacted August. Then, in almost a whirlwind of developments, August found himself as the Democratic nominee for the city of Millbrook, running against the incumbent mayor. Despite his pledge to run a campaign of hope and positivity, behind the scenes there was arm-twisting and blackmail on the part of the Montgomery family to secure information, secrets and scandals against the opposition that would bring momentum to Aaron's campaign. Aaron himself is aware of these closed-door-dealings, though remains naive to the true lengths the Montgomery family went to secure his successful campaign, and indeed he himself never released a 'scandal' against the incumbent mayor, instead looking to promote the positive change he would bring about. Such scandals were instead released through 'anonymous sources', no doubt the Montgomery family.
The result, however, was a decisive victory for Aaron's campaign. Three years ago, he was sworn in as the Mayor of Millbrook.

His ascension to the post of Mayor marked a new era for Millbrook, one that has led to the bloodshed and horrors of increased levels of organised crime, with the Montgomery family being allowed to 'slip through the fingers' of law enforcement as a result from pressure above, specifically, the Mayor's Office. Aaron was promised, in return for a blind eye toward what August described as 'innocent' actions from the Montgomery family, funding for a variety of schemes he sought to implement that he believed would benefit the lowest in society. While these schemes have indeed been implemented, the ever-growing feud between the three families threatens to tear the city apart and has, if nothing else, drawn attention away from the 'good' work of the Mayor, instead focusing on the deaths and crimes as a result of, what the press are describing, the blood feud.

Now, however, three years after his inauguration and a gradually growing conflict within the city, Aaron grows tired of not only the Montgomery family, but the Davidson and Edmond families alike. Yet deciding to go after the families will undoubtedly lead to serious reprecussions from not only the Montgomery family, who certainly have dirt on him, but the others as well. How Aaron will proceed in his efforts to bring the city back into lawful control, not even he is sure.

Victoria Piper Montgomery

Vickie, a nickname given to her by family and friends.

Twenty One

Female

Heterosexual

Single

Middle Daughter

Unlike her oldest sister, the long cascading locks found on Victoria is a dark chocolate brown and often found untamed. She also wears them tied into a neater ponytail when engaging in any physical activity to allow ease of movement and comfort. Perhaps it is the set of colours that she choose or simply the way that she applies it, but yet despite her choice of hairstyle, she still manages to retain a good sense of class and elegance without appearing too messy or even unkempt. Possessing a set of startlingly distinctive azure blue eyes fringed with dark brown lashes, they are the most prominent facial feature. Her thin pointed lips are a peachy shade of pink and her pale ivory skin is unblemished of any tattoos or visible scars.

She stands at a height of 1.68m or 5'5" and the only heeled footwear she wears are heeled boots. Her build is a slim spoon-shaped figure, she still manages to get a decent set of muscles from her regular bout of exercises. As for clothing wise, Victoria tends to stick to dark-coloured clothing hues, like black and the darker shades of grey. She sports heavy eyeliner and can usually be seen in blouses and pants with the occasional skirts here and there. As per their family status and that befitting of their wealth, Victoria is often similarly clad in the garb of the big brands, along with other designer-level apparel, be they top, bottom or both. She does not have a habit of wearing any earrings but she however, does wear a necklace laced with several black opals along with a couple of diamond gems.

Despite her how outer appearance and expression may seem to be, once one gets to know her, they would discover her to be rather warm and friendly, to a certain extent of course. Don't expect her to remain warm or friendly to you if you ever double cross her or even get in the way of her path. Blunt and unforgiving, she does not sugar-coat anything and is uncompromisingly forthright. It goes without a doubt that Victoria is highly confident of both herself and her abilities, but not to an extent that would make her seem cocky or arrogant, simply just assured of her own skills and abilities. Spending little to no time idle, she is always found doing something that isn't lazing about, be they business-related or personal-interests related.

She is known to be highly-focused and remarkably industrious, willing to put in the extra mile to achieve her goal or complete the tasks assigned to her. Intelligent and witty with a balanced mix of both book-smart and street-smarts, she has put her talents to good use handling the affairs of the family business despite being no where near the line of succession being the middle daughter of the family.

Once she sets goals for herself, she becomes incredibly dedicated to her goals, pretty much almost to the point of stubbornness. Bold and adventurous, she is not afraid of trying out new things and activities and is always looking forward to learning new stuff, whatever that might be. A good team player who understand the necessity of teamwork and cooperation, Victoria is also an outspoken and ambitious individual who is not afraid to make her views and opinions be known to the rest of the group.

She is able to influence and move objects with her mind, such as lifting objects into the air, altering an object's directional course or to grasp an object firmly in place binding its movement. She is also able to pull objects towards her or push objects away from her.

Although she considers herself to be relatively competent with her power, she is not able to large objects such as vehicles and above, such as lifting an entire car or truck. She is however more than capable of ripping off the door of a car or stripping it of its tires. Using telekinesis takes up more brain power the bigger the object, and using it too often and going beyond her limitations can cause nose bleeding, migraines or simply passing out so she tries to limit her usage of her powers and to limit its use to smaller objects.

Ever since they were young, Victoria and her older sister were always fighting and vying for their father's attention. When her father wasn't occupied with her sister, she would be at his side, preferring his company to the rest of the family. Having being born first, her older sister, Emilia had two extra years of their father's attention and love, and Victoria would often argue for balance. She loves the rest of her siblings and mother as well, but just like the oldest daughter, her favourite person was her father.

As she grew older, that was probably where the similarities stopped and branched off towards different paths. Victoria excelled in her studies and was considered to be incredibly bright, a top student in her cohort, unlike her eldest sister who remained in the average range. Being the friendly personable individual she was, she always made it a point to help her siblings whenever they had any problems or issues with their school work. Growing up, she found an interest in martial arts, and her parents soon found a private instructor to impart the skills of the Taekwondo to her. She performed remarkably well, just as everyone thought she would. Another affair she could interested in was the affairs of the family business. She would watch while her father conducted his business, whether it was in secret or in public in the vicinity.

Victoria was just fourteen when she discovered that she had powers of her own. The reason for discovering it in the first place may have appeared trivial to others, but not to her. One of her most treasured possessions was a ceramic mug that a close friend gave her. Caught up in her work with her books lying haphazardly on her desk, a careless shove later, her mug left the confines of the desk and was heading towards the hard surface of the living room floor. By the time she realised what was going on, and a futile grasp of the air later accompanied by a yell of dismay fully expecting to hear the shattering of her beloved mug, but there no such thing. What followed next caught her by surprise. The cup floated back up into air with less drink in it than before, but it was fully intact, in one piece. After being dumbstruck for several moments, she realised the mug was floating back towards her just as she was staring right at it. That incident was Victoria's first knowledge of her power and she has worked on improving it ever since.

Julian Jeremiah Montgomery

J/Jay— An obvious abbreviation of any name beginning with a J. Julian doesn’t prefer this nickname, but most people have “lazy tongues”, so it’s used frequently.
Jules— A pet named favoured by one of the women he’s seduced over the past god knows how long. He claims it’s stuck, but others rarely ever like to call him it.

Male

If they’re human, he’ll take it.

Forbidden Love (It’s Complicated)

Oldest Son

Standing at an average 5’9” (with a weight of 152 lbs), Jay is what most describe as sex on a stick, regardless of his power. His body is a perfect mixture of a lithe yet athletic build, adorned by muscles which are in turn covered in fading lipstick stamps that he’s either been too lazy to wash off or been unaware of their existence. He does try his hardest to keep up a neat appearance, and when his power isn’t dragging him by the ass into a wild night of drunkenness and riding around in a shopping cart, he can been seen in smart clothing that still attains a slight casual feel to it, such as polo jumpers and a shirt, tie and suspenders. (See here for reference.)

Julian actually has two scars, both of which he got in the same fight. The most serious one is on the upper left corner of his back, 16.5cm in length and 5mm in width. The other one is on the right side of his lip, heading downwards for 2cm.

The only piercings Jay will ever wear is a pair of studded black hoop earrings in his ear lobes.

Julian has a tribal wolf tattoo on his right shoulder, and the phrase “Driver picks the music, shotgun shuts his cakehole.” along the top of his back.

As eldest Montgomery, Jay feels he has a responsibility on his shoulders, and dedicates himself to protecting them no matter what. Despite this, he is at a constant struggle with his powers, as he’s constantly being taken over by the sudden desire to rip the nearest person’s clothes off and take them right there on that table/desk/suitcase/floor. He mainly just has one-night-stands and then gets on with it, having to just ride out his “episodes” the best way he can. Yet, he refuses to get help, as he’s got better things to do than “take useless drugs” or “listen to some useless fella with a fancy degree drone on for hours”.

However, when his power manages to get a hold of him, it drags him headlong into a spiral of recklessness and idiocy. He can go through up to three girls/boys/aliens in one night, and still come home craving more. He can also end up puking in the toilet for two hours straight, and still drink more. He often describes it as though someone is taking over his body, and he’s just there in the back seat, watching it happen before his blurry eyes. Afterwards he’ll often have no memory, and just randomly remember the names of the people he did it with. He’s still paranoid to this day that he’s impregnated someone in his reckless actions, but it’s not like he can remember if it happened.

If you ever wanted to learn more about Julian, then most anyone who knew him would either bid you good luck or tell you not to bother. This is because there’s nothing he does remember about it - the effect his ability has on him has long since erased half of his memories as it slowly strips him of his personality. There’s few things he remembers nowadays - you could ask him to go get you something from the store and he’d come back empty handed with a girl by his side.

The memory most vividly burned into his mind is the first time he took a beating. A few boys were harassing Emilia, and he’d finally figured out where they were (thanks to a little flirting with a couple of people). In the end, he’d managed to get them to back off, but not before he got a cut on his lip and a nasty gash on his back that needed stitches. Though, with all honesty, he wasn’t really expecting them to have knives. To this day, he still looks out for Emmy, no matter how much she reminds him that she’s only 2 years younger than him.

As of the present, however, whatever’s left of his memory is fixated on the struggle between the three families. As eldest son, his father had raised him to have responsibilities, and despite him not remembering barely any of it, it has still affected his personality. He does remember brief glimpses of talking to his father, but most of them are recent, and slowly slipping from his memory. However, despite it, he refuses to get help as he has a duty to protect his family (and soon run the empire), and he intends to fulfil it.

Lust— Julian is attractive; quite literally. People are sexually aroused and attracted to him, no matter their gender or sexuality. Julian sees it as an independent being, capable of choosing who is attracted to him. It also has a mirrored, albeit weaker effect on him - he is attracted to anyone who is most under the influence of his power.

Julian cannot stop this power, nor can he control it. It is constantly active, and he has no idea who it will attract, or when. Also, his power’s strength depends on how strong-willed the people around him are. If they’re weak-willed enough, it can cause a catastrophically permanent effect, sometimes causing people to go full-on yandere mode. Finally, on the terms of the mirrored effect it has on him - it can cause trouble in the context that if their influence declines, or there is someone weaker willed than them, Julian can end up being with a completely different person by the end of the night. Another major thing is that his power slowly consumes him, stripping him of his memory and personality, until all that is left is his lust, and a raging pheromone-induced desire for dominance and women.

It’s a tie between Ki Hong Lee, Christopher Larkin, or Thomas Brodie-Sangster <3 (I’m such a girl lol)

Oh, and Julian drives the new Mini convertible.

Arsene Simon Montgomery

Arsene. He generally doesn't like nicknames, and thinks it's sloppy or rude to call someone who doesn't wish to be addressed with a nickname. He however doesn't mind being referred to as 'Quake' since it's the name of a popular 'shooter' franchise and references his ability. He is also okay with 'Sen'.

17

Male

Asexual

Single

Youngest son

Arsene has short, light brown hair and blue eyes. He is kind of small and lanky with a bit of a lazy slouch and shrinking mannerisms. He dresses very plainly, with t-shirts and jeans. The nicest he'll dress is by replacing his t-shirt with a button-up shirt, and his jeans with dress pants. He'll only wear a suit if pushed by his parents.

Arsene is an introverted and thoughtful individual. As the youngest of five siblings, he's had to balance being babied and being the runt. This has resulted in a dichotomous personality, one that desires to stand out above the rest but also desires to placate the strongest personalities in order to reduce conflict. By focusing on the utilitarian overall happiness and peace of the household, Arsene has chosen, to a certain extent, to suppress his own opinions and desires. However, his pride in the power of his mind, the one thing he believes is truly his, cannot be contained, and is the main source of disagreements between him and his siblings who may find him unbearably pedantic at times. In the end, he loves his family and has divided the world into two types of people: his family, and everyone else. How he treats these two types is drastically clear.

Arsene desires peace, stability, and security above all else and is not hesitant to enact draconian and violent measures against the other families to attain the order he craves. Arsene can easily fall into a rage and become impossible to reason with until after his rage subsides. He also misdirects his anger away from his own family, so even if he was originally annoyed by one of his siblings, he will lash out at someone else. This nepotism, this bias, is glaringly subjective and flies in the face of the objective individual he wishes he was but it is something he actively chooses to ignore. Arsene is a little emotionally underdeveloped, he had started acting a little too much like an adult at too young an age.

Arsene has the ability to control the earth in a five meter radius around himself. The controlled earthen matter can move at a maximum speed of five meters per second. He can use this power to reabsorb earth or earth-like materials back into the ground.

Arsene cannot intentionally break off parts that he is controlling so cannot 'fling' rocks at enemies using his power. He cannot control any earth or earth-like materials that are not connected to the ground until he has reabsorbed it into the ground. He cannot levitate earth or earth-like materials. Arsene cannot violate the conservation of mass, earth he raises in one side of his field of control must cause earth to lower in another part. He therefore cannot ride a pillar of earth upwards indefinitely as he cannot pull more material from the ground after he has passed five meters away from it. Dry sand is too loose for him to control, but wet sand, soil and solid rock is fine.

Arsene barely remembers a life outside of Millbrook, having spent the majority of his conscious years in this city. He has some recollection of when the families were united, but those memories are not very strong. His strongest impression of the other families is one of hatred and betrayal. Arsene was not exactly bullied as a child, but his parents, having gone through four previous children, raised him in a sort of matter-of-fact way, one that was a little less affectionate.

Arsene demonstrated a high intelligence from a young age and was something of a precocious youngster. He did well in class with very little effort, and his pride in this achievement may have caused some resentment and distance with some of his older siblings who did not excel as much. With the family business being what it was, Augustus wanted his children to excel, and inadvertently used Arsene's academic success to cause undesired pressure on his siblings, making Arsene a source of some of their grief. Arsene internalized this resentment and vowed to 'make it up' to his siblings by being acquiescent and accommodating. If ever there was strife in the household, he blamed it on external factors, namely, the government and the gang war. In a rather simplistic manner, he came to the conclusion that destroying the other families would bring peace to the Montgomery home.

It was something of a wish come true when it became clear that Arsene's power had enormous destructive potential, and other than having a limited range, Arsene didn't seem to become exhausted as quickly from overuse of his power. He meticulously tested what his limits were and strives to push them on a regular basis. Arsene is a little obsessed with his destructive power and can often be megalomaniacal and abusive of his power.

Liatris Leon Edmond

Reaver, Leilani, Brat, etc.

19

Male

Homosexual all the way.

Single, he doesn’t mind trying out that ‘commitment’ thing.

Youngest Edmond Son

Liatris in appearance appears a bit more feminine and softer than the average male, and without a doubt he does in fact tend to his appearance on looking as soft and androgynous as possible. For starters, Liatris stands at 5"5, pretty short for a male but he doesn't necessarily despise his height. In fact he adores it and finds it quite convenient when he feels the need to crossdress. He has fluffy curly hair that people tend to have the sudden urge to tussle, and to take body figure further, his figure is fairly dainty but he does have some muscle in him. Liatris is also fair skinned with some rosy cheeks and red lips to go with his fluffy hair and smooth skin. His particular style ranges. If he’s ‘normal’ he has no style at all in particular. However if he crossdresses, he is very particular about what he wears. Nymphet fashion would be the general idea of how he dresses as a female which mixes in some girly fashion with vintage fashion, a basic concept of it really. But just cause Liatris adores crossdressing, doesn’t mean his mindset is fixated on being a woman or believing he is one however. He just simply adores womens clothing more than men's and its also more ‘fun’ in his opinion. The only scars he has would be located on his fingers from playing a knife game called ‘Five Finger Fillet’. He now regrets being the rascal he was when he was younger and causing himself these scars for fun due to the fact that he finds them ‘undesirable’ and ‘not perfect’ when he crossdresses.

♥ Rowing. He finds it fun to do.

→ Being the fucking stuck-up prince he is, He dislikes lesser brands or ‘poorer things’ below his usual high standards.
→ Not getting his way or what he wants unless convinced to not cause a shit storm. This goes to smaller, trivial terms such as: if he doesn’t get those louboutins or some bullshit. Other than that he won’t complain if he can’t get ‘That guy from the other mafia in bed’ or something along those lines that would be considered important to not fuck shit up.
→ The smell of wine absolutely bothers him.
→ People who talk a lot. Sure he adores attention, but who the hell wants to hear your vent if he didn’t ask?
→ Competition.
→ People who bite their nails
→ Anyone who preaches to him about god more than five times in 120 seconds.

♥ Crossdressing
♥ Reading

♥ Checking out other men. But then again, it’s not really a hobby.

→ He rubs his nose or sniffles if he feels bored, or craves/draw attention.
→ Plays with his fingers to show nervousness or awkwardness.
→ Head tilt to the left indicates you’ve lost his interest, he’s tired, or simply doesn’t care enough. Head tilt to right indicates you have his full attention. Like a dog really.
→ He’s very touchy-feely. He’ll openly hug a person he has just met or keep snuggling onto their arm. It fits his amiable front, but usually though he tends to snuggle the arm of those he trusts or every so often have this sudden impulse to bother them rather lovingly.

→ The dark, surprisingly.
→ Abandonment

Be it the good days or the bad, The youngest Edmond son expresses a sort of exuberant behavior that tends to be a warm welcome for new relations to trust almost immediately. You may not reveal personal matters yet, but often times in the first meeting alone theres just this sense of underlying security when speaking to Liatris. He is a person whom you can speak to, vent about trivial matters, and within the week and a few consecutive conversations, reveal the darkest secrets as a way to relieve yourself--Or maybe just the tip of the iceberg. How he acts is what attracts the people around him. His eccentric behavior which is often underestimated to be ulterior motives is disturbingly mistaken as kindness towards newcomers and this foolish behavior is merely just an act to pin others down and play a game. Once he's got you into his trap, he is determined to slowly break you under your very nose. He is cunning, and playing a part that is lesser known to be the 'bad guy' is what attracts his desired prey. If you become a target to Liatris' game, have you noticed anything abruptly strange which you cannot put your finger on? Bad luck perhaps? A loss of money? A pool of dead men by the Edmonds? Perhaps it was this fresh relationship with Liatris/'Leilani'? No, because he gives off a 'lover not a fighter' vibe. And how does Liatris necessarily cause trouble under the noses of others? It's the relationship he builds off and the vibe which he demonstrates. No one is able to point a finger on Liatris no matter what underlying conflict will appear despite being the 'newest in depth relationship' with his said target, and it shows just how chaotically slick he is. He will comfort you in the conflict -his family has- caused, and act just as surprised as you. Then once the task is done, he is sure to disappear again, and move on to his next target.

But while displaying a sort of joyous and loving behavior which entices -or entraps- his prey, to those who has survived his game or keenly knew someone who was in the game, or in some way just knows Liatris--Whatever it may be; Then this behavior comes off more amused than kind. The perfect way to describe this 'fun and loving behavior' can only be seen as 'Theatrical' in the eyes of someone who is truly aware of Liatris or games like his and as a result, this causes Liatris to probably be the most hated Edmond perhaps. This fact does not mean he is known -as he is elusive-, but definitely the most hated after his father due to his nature of being manipulative and even a pathological liar. No matter what corner you manage to trap Liatris in, it's rare to get the truth out of him at all as he either dances around it or flat out continues his charade and some predict that his twisted mind of playing games will indeed lead to his death one day. In fact Liatris is so used to being the manipulative informant in the family that in his free time from having a specific target, he enjoys putting people in chaotic situations. This impish nature outside of work is what strains him from creating any genuine or lasting bonds. But those who do manage to stay and understand him, surprisingly gain the same respect back. Not in the same manner, but he will indeed display a sort of affectionate gratitude for putting up with his shit.

Playing a 'game' with others gives Liatris a sense of superiority which he enjoys. However if the game comes back at him and he's the one who had been underhanded instead, it amuses him even more. However, when provoked, he quickly puts his opponent in their place by simply proving his superiority without actually beating the other person. Liatris also has a sort of inferiority-superiority complex if you will, having insecurities and internal conflict here and there inside while acting high and mighty towards others. While conflicts may happen, Liatris tends to stay out of it in a way and play his role to the end until the Edmonds believe they have control over the situation. He is observant with people, and thus will do anything to get what he wants or if it's a family situation ; Will do anything to achieve what they want to achieve. The fact that he mostly lives to serve for the family is what can be see as conflicting in another's point of view since he is the youngest son, but Liatris does not seem to mind. He is aware of the concept that he is being used but has this sort of undying loyalty he can't shake off.

Liatris has the ability to manipulate the memories of others, However he doesn't consider his ability as an actual power thats 'cool' in his opinion. In terms of manipulating memories, Liatris can manifest them openly or privately, and alter them to a certain degree. When Liatris is looking through the memories of others, nothing can describe it any easier than saying it's like a movie when he digs through the mind of another. But it usually depends on the person and the complexity of their mind or their character, Their mental palace can be a movie theatre with film titles, a library with books, multiple doors, or even a stressful office full of individual files -which he has never encountered but will despise-. Everyone has their own 'mental palace' as he states so it's unpredictable to get a hold of one single memory if the target is unwilling to give it, thus he relies on trickery and wit for the user to at least tip him off. However sometimes that one piece of memory often represents what he wants if the user is strong enough to not tip him off. Example if he wishes to know where a lost dog is or something and his target refuses to tell to which he travels into their mind palace of memories, a book about dogs or a door with claws will indicate what he is looking for. He can see almost everything, But it's mostly key points in their lives or things that have created the character they are today.

The male is also capable to try and restore a certain memory, however it strains him physically since he finds it harder to obtain a blurred memory than simply alter them. This usually takes verbal commanding to guide Liatris to recreate the memory the person seeks, and usually if the memory created closely resembles the original memory it gets easier and memories which fit the memory being created will appear, to which it's a happy ending for the person.

If rushed however or stressed, Liatris can even 'accidentally' place himself in the memory or point of view of others to feel what they felt or think what they were thinking at the time, however he can't do it when he pleases.

Memories are fragile, and Liatris is aware of that. One thing Liatris cannot absolutely do is take a memory away permanently, Like said he could only alter it to some degree. If he does take a memory away, it's only temporary to say the least and the person can try to remember it at will somehow. No matter what, there will always be a sort of trigger to make sense of the original memory. Another thing would be the mental complexity of the people he may encounter. If they have a strong will to keep him out, it is indeed possible to fight against his powers. They can hide the memory, disguise it however they please (more books if it's a library, papers scattered if its a office, etc), even trick Liatris into thinking that the memory being given is the memory he wants as he can confuse them in any way. A downfall of manipulating memories itself takes a toll on his own mental strength somewhat; They can be overwhelming to bear sometimes and he himself can only remember so much that it causes him to forget certain ones or information being given within that memory from an hour to a few days even ; Unless he actively tries to remember what was witnessed and observed mentally or physically. Physical contact is also a must, and very rarely can Liatris do it without physical contact or with eye contact alone.

I figured as he gets older he has more proper control and skill over his powers. Like some BBC Sherlock shit.

Growing up, Liatris was the spoiled brat out of his siblings. Whatever he wanted, he got it on a silver platter within hours or the next day maximum. He appeared more normal than his siblings however, and that was something his father couldn't comprehend exactly. Everyone in the family had powers of some sort that was apparent, but where was Liatris' abilities? He couldn't pick up a car, or pick anything up mentally for that matter. The kid didn't even know how to fly, so how was he an Edmond without abilities? Liatris was fairly late about his abilities but neither parent disgraced him for being the 'normal' Edmond in the family. In fact they seemed to simply adore him even more and develop a sort of stronger protective nature in the meantime, feeling that those with abilities outside their family had the ability to crush their child at any given time so they were always cautious. However, Liatris grew up to favor his mother more than his father--Not that Johnny Edmond did him any wrong it was just something Liatris picked up on for whatever reason it may be.

But while Liatris appeared to be the more 'favorited' one out of his siblings, he was also the more difficult one besides being spoiled which only encouraged his behavior. The youngest Edmond was both the smartest in terms of being cunning and the most devious. Even as a child, while he was popular with children he was rather a a cunning little rascal, tricking the kids into something or striking a deal which made him come out on top. As a child whenever he made friends he loved to lead and reign over the other children, he never picked on the other kids however his snooty and 'i'm better than you' behavior caused him to have a lack of friends, little to none to be exact as he was the type to have a certain 'clique' and leave the other kids out. But even with a clique, It was observed that Liatris was only interested in their toys, or snacks, or whatever a kid adored. The Edmonds felt disappointed in Liatris for being snooty. But it was apparent that perhaps by choice Liatris simply didn't want friends if he had family. And due to this mindset on not being interested in keeping friends besides using them for snacks or toys, this caused Liatris to often read profusely alone whenever he wasn't being a little terror child and sometimes read with one of the parents or both who made time to read to the boy. Liatris gained above average knowledge as a result but that doesn't mean he was an exact genius.

His parents were aware of his manipulative and rather mischievous behavior of course, after the young boy pulled off the most simple stunts or even the most complex stunts, but being disciplined never made Liatris fear them any more. In fact, because they disciplined his behavior it only made him feel more more challenged and determined to get what he wanted or simply see their reactions as to how they put up with his antics. Some would say Liatris' temper in public or during meetings especially with connections was extremely terrible, however his parents would simply reply,'This is nothing.' with ease before putting him in his place and complying to his wishes on joining the meeting or something. Normally when Liatris pulled this sort of stunt, it was often a deliberate way to listen in on whatever negotiations was being made between his parents and some other criminal business. He would play the 'Just a kid here' part and listen in keenly in order to understand how such businesses work before talking about it with his parents rather curiously.

Then age 11 hit, and Liatris discovered his powers in one of his father's meetings with another crime lord who was being punished for crossing Johnny the wrong way. During this time, Liatris was being watched by his mother and the crime lord's wife--Forced to play with their child. "Play the part and keep shut." his mother had whispered to him before their arrival and Liatris simply complied, giving off a innocent vibe who loved to make friends. After a while however he excused himself to go to the bathroom, only to join his father out of curiosity from hearing the yelps of terror coming from another room. The nearby guards had attempted to shoo Liatris away but failed, causing Johnny to stop his meeting--Or for that matter it was more of a 'session'.

"Whaddya want kiddo?" His father peaked through the crack of the door. Liatris leaned in, hearing painful pants coming from a tired man, and seeing a bit of blood splattered on the floor. "I don't like that kid. He's poor, obnoxious, and dumb." he responded. "To bad Liatris, just suck it up for now--Please." the man said with a cough, rushing his son. Liatris glared up at his father with impatience himself and began to throw a fit with himself out of anger. "Fine--I'm telling the guest." he declared. It was only then that the father had pulled the child in as a way to get back to work, and shut his own son up.

Seeing so much blood before his eyes didn't faze Liatris as this very scene was considered 'normal' to him due to his exposure to it from his clinginess with his parents. The victim had been brutally beaten by the hands of his own father and he seemed to refuse snitching on who he had been working for the whole time. His attempt to bring down the Edmonds and be a 'somebody' was a failed one, and Liatris merely sat on a chair near the fireplace quietly. Each hit bruising the man, merely causing him to flinch here and there. Before long, his father turned to the fireplace, wiping his knuckles as a cigarette was served to him and he proceeded to speak angrily about the case involving the man. Going over the details, and bringing together the pieces to lead up to an idea which the crime lord refused to admit.

Liatris stood from his seat and walked closer around his father's victim with silence as he heard his father's shouting. Circling, the boy couldn't tell if the man was truly dead or still alive until he stretched a trembling hand out to touch the man's head and pick it up as a way to face him. "Liatris, stay away from him." His father's voice boomed, causing the boy to flinch. However when Liatris turned around the setting had changed, and it seemed as though he was in the last memory which stuck out to the man while being beaten and interrogated by his father. Of course Liatris didn't know at the time, he explored this specific memory the man had been thinking of and began to fret within that memory in confusion. Who were these people? A plan to bring down Johnny and be the new head? What on earth was going on? Liatris became overwhelmed with emotion as he observed the memory. No one was talking to him, he was like a ghost. Then things went black and he felt like he was being kidnapped suddenly. He was in the position of the man before he had gotten here, and from what Liatris assumed the man had been here for no more than a day before his wife was invited for a 'play date'. The memory had ended from when he was kidnapped and Liatris suddenly came back into the world of reality, shouting uncontrollably in his father's arms. Johnny lulled the boy calm as he held him tightly and tousled his hair. From that night on Johnny became aware of Liatris' powers and the next day had explained what had happened. It seemed as though Liatris had also somehow manifested the memory he was in which helped his father but he was still in shock due to placing himself in the point of view of the man at the time he was being kidnapped.

To keep things short, Johnny had helped Liatris be more focused and in control of his power. At 16, Liatris was actually sent on tasks to deceive and obtain information by force from anybody who had seemed to antagonize his father. Missions like these tend to cloud his father's judgement sometimes; One minute he'd be worried about his son--however moving on to the next he'd be determined that his pawn would win. And with such a mindset, Liatris himself even went as far as to offer up sex on the table in order to play the part well and receive good intel. He sold his body, in return for secrets be it by force or trickery.

→ Keanu Reeves... And Harrison Ford.
→ After days of searching for the 'perfect' female FC which had similar traits to Ezra Miller face wise, I finally decided to give up and settled on Liv Tyler as Liatris's crossdressing appearance and mixed it in with imaginative thoughts such as having more of Ezra Miller's facial features as well as fluffy hair. Bear with me please. Also, extra.

→ Liatris was named after flowers his mother adored.
→ He adores tattoos, however isn't allowed to have them due to being a sort of infiltrator at times. Piercing, tattoos, scars, or anything else which may cause a mark on his skin is forbidden for Liatris personally. Having such would lead him to be exposed much more quicker, and because of his father's greed they simply can't risk scarring or tampering with Liatris' skin any further. It was bad enough he was punished for having scarred fingers from five finger fillet. But often times these were overlooked by his victims as 'unimportant to actually remember' as they were to drawn to how he acted and 'loved'.
→ He enjoys entertaining himself the 'old fashioned' way or making a game of something around him. Be it from rubiks cubes, building blocks, doing origami, etc. He was always known to be imaginative and make use of his free time productively when sex and business wasn't around to take up his time. But due to the fact that he doesn't have that much 'free-time' as there always seems to be something he has to do (not that he ever seems to complain), he finds the little things rather interesting.
