| Personality |
Mercury is the type to cover his self doubts, and fears with sarcasm or humor. Often times he’ll look at others in a questioning way wanting to understand what makes them, them. In hopes of understanding himself, and finding the place he belongs. Though often times only sees the masks they themselves wear. But, that does not deter his search to understand.
He often tried his best to make those around him smile. But, even despite that he is lonely as no one sticks around for very long. Because they find him creepy, and are unnerved by him. Or die as death seems to follow him around like a shadow, as is the curse of the wraith. But, he doesn’t really mind it infact he sorta finds a fascination with it.

| History |
Mercury was born from the shadows alone in a wood, and stone cellar that reeked of death, and decay. His body wisps of smoke like shadow. He was alone, and didn’t understand what he was or who he was for that matter. The first thing he saw was a small skull. In picking it up a name or a series of words ran through his mind, and when he came round the skull had turned into his very first mask. He knew what this was: Origin Mask. In putting it on he found he’d become more solid he opened a mouth, and tested out speech. He first words being: Mercury, Grimm, Abital. It made him laugh deciding to make those words his name. Then he heard the groaning lamentations of a dark skinned man with broken legs that was dying of infection, starvation, and thirst. This man spoke with Mercury for a while telling him about the world. In return he asked Mercury to not let him die. Not till he had vengeance on the one that threw him in here, and abandoned him to die. As the last breath left this man Mercury touched him this man had become the next mask: Sly Mask. Taking their clothes Mercury left to seek out the nice man’s revenge.
He got out of the cellar after banging into it a couple times. Then looked around he saw the house, and knew that’s where the mean people lived from the memories in the Sly mask he wore. He quickly got over there, and broke into the house. Or more walked in as the doors weren’t locked. The first thing he was greeted with was a divine scent, and walked towards it. Sitting on a tray was small brown round disks with black spots in them. He ate one feeling hungry, and then the rest as the taste was amazing. Hearing shouting coming from up the stairs Mercury walked up them. Then stopped hearing loud noises BANG BANG heading into the room he saw a bleeding woman, and strong man. Then he looked to the man who was huge, and fat. It was amazing he was able to even pull the trigger with those sausage fingers. Clearly they were terrified seeing Mercury, and was questioning what he was. He took a step towards the fat man ugly man. He knew this man had also made the other innocent suffer, and so decided to end the fat man’s existence. It was so easy to strangle lardo, the man was slow, he was faster, and stronger.
He turned to the two that’d been shot that were quickly bleeding to death. They thanked him, and they revealed why they were killed in their last breaths. Thankful someone heard their story the two passed on leaving two masks the woman had secretly been a mage.
After that eventful first day of his life Mercury stayed in the house for three days. Till finally moving on taking the three masks with him in a duffle bag, and stole some clothes that’d disguise him. Having remembered the fear from the fat man, and decided to disguise his body. So he could go unnoticed.
He traveled all over ireland learning different things tasting many different sweets. To pay for it all he’d take odd jobs, and play poker meeting new interesting people. Learning more, but occasionally he’d come across people that were dying, and in need of some kind of solace. Or at times even revenge. A service Mercury was more than happy to provide.His travels had taken him to Brazil as he’d learned of Carnival of all the people walking around in mask, and costumes. So Deciding that was the perfect place he could finally relax, perhaps maybe even finally make friends that'd stay. He did find one friend a girl that could bend, and control light at will. He'd become both fascinated, and infatuated with this woman. But, what happened next Merc should've seen coming, but he didn't. Someone took his friend, someone took Eddie from him. What Tia had done to her there are no words, but: Rage, Horror, and Disgust.
Mercury has tracked Tia to England, and his plans for her are far from kind.
