There was a snap and a rustle of leaves as a mass of bright red, curly hair and the head it was attached to burst forth from one of the leafy boughs of the outlying trees near the Circus grounds. Blaire settled herself into a sitting position, leaning against the pale grey trunk and tilting her head back, nose in the air. She took in a deep breath and scowled, making a gagging noise.
Blaire squinted at the brightly coloured tents with a look akin to disgust. She glanced down towards her similarly bright-haired brother, calling out lowly in a thick Scottish dialect. "I don't know if ye can smell it too, Malcom, but it -reeks- o' Hunters over there."
She lifted up a pale hand, pointing idly to the massive main tent. "Silver, smoke, and the blood o' thousands. Nae other way to figure out who's a Hunter and who isn't, using yer nose. Are ye comin' up here to have a look, or must I drag ye up in this tree?" she asked, grinning.
“Hunters? I thought I caught their scent… maybe it wasn't a wise idea to come here in the first place,” he responded cautiously. Malcolm, like most supernatural beings, didn't have a good… relationship… with the Hunters. At least their hate for them was justified, while vice versa it’s because they were just different from everyone else.
“And I will come up on my own accord. The McKennen Clan wouldn't let me hear the end of it if they heard my little sister had to drag me up a tree, would they? It would look bad on my record,” he added, placing his gun back into its holster on his belt before climbing the tree, the occasional snapping of branches being heard as he climbed up.
Upon reaching the top of the leafy boughs of the outlying trees, he narrows his eyes towards the Circus as he gently ruffles Blaire’s fiery red hair, much like his own, in a playful manner. Scowling after a few seconds he proceeds to place himself on a different branch, as their weight combined would most likely make one snap, with his gaze focused upon his sister.
"Well, now yer up here, I dinnae want t'be!" she chuckles, getting her hair ruffled. Smiling up at her brother briefly, her gaze snaps back to the circus grounds curiously. "Now, here's the plan...We go in, find who's in charge, an' figure out how to throw those blokes off our trail." Blaire nods firmly, clearly not having enough foresight to figure out the majority of issues that could arise from such an idiotic plan.
"Oi, can ye hit one o' them from over here? If they got out? Then again, we might end up hittin' one o' our new coworkers and that would be -very- awkward..." mused Blaire, rubbing her chin.
Malcolm chuckles as he scratches his chin, pondering on her question. "I reckon I would have a good chance at hitting something at this distance. How about you go down there and put an apple on your head so I can get my eye in and make sure?" he asks, grinning as he carefully makes his way down the tree. "Let's go and find out who's in charge then, but let me do the talking this time around. I still have memories of you getting us both in trouble a while back when you did the talking."
"That was -one time-, and how was I s'posed to know they were policemen?" sighed Blaire. She twisted her body a little, snatching a final peek down at the circus before disappearing down the branches. Her hand shot out, grabbing the lower branch before she fell flat on her face in the dirt. Blaire looked across the beaten path, glanced up at Malcom, waved, and started jogging down the path towards the Circus.
"OI?! WE'RE LOOKIN' TO SEE THE MANAGER!" Hollered Blaire. 'Subtle' doesn't even seem to comply with Blaire's dictionary.

Oh! Me and Sitches have been working on an opening post which I'm going to post now. I have never done a collab, as she put it, before so I hope I do it alright ^^ I will, of course, edit it once I get word from her if I did it wrong or not, but at least it's there for now!

HI MaNGER AM SPUPPRNATRL MooNSTR
It sounds like a plan! What better way to introduce yourself?!

I have a feeling Malcom and Blake are gonna have some conflicts of interests. (Mainly: Fire)
Totally! Although, I think the fear is much worst as a werewolf. I mean... fire + fur = bad! But if Blaire and Blake become best friends, he will no doubt spend a fair amount of time around him xD
Stitches said
Blaire is considering walking in, going right up to the manager and being all "Want us to throw these hunters off the trail?" because she isn't subtle and assumes that's what the manager of a circus full of supernatural beings would do when faced with a team of Hunters.
I reckon Malcolm would step in and start talking more... how to put it... politely after his sister has "introduced" them so to speak ^^
There! My character sheet is done and I hope it's up to standards :) Just tell me if there is anything 'wrong' with it and I will change said 'wrong' thing with it ^^
Name: Malcolm McKennen
Nickname: Deadeye
Age: 36
Gender: Male
Species:
Weakness: See ‘Species’
Powers: See ‘Species’
Primary Position: Sharpshooter
Secondary Position: None
History:
The McKennen Clan have been werewolves for as long as they can date back in the Archives. In terms of family history, the early years were tough; back then, one barely had silver in the household to stave off massive, feral werewolf attacks. But one could call the McKennen Clan as “foolhardy” - they didn't give up and after over 50 years of Lycanthropy in the family, they started discovering solutions.
Malcolm McKennen, being the oldest of his generation, was the first to experience at the age of 6 the grueling mixture of difficult training for mental fortitude against what will, sooner or later, be inevitable, and nostalgic memories of playtime in the McKennen Castle which was located deep in the pine forests of Scotland.
Malcolm was considered the most responsible out of his generation, often keeping a wary eye on his mischievous younger sister called Blaire. It’s a good thing he did too, because he had lost count of the amount of times he has had to save her. The most notable of the incidents was when she mischievously stepped into the dangerous pine forests, deciding it was a “good” idea to explore them despite warnings from her parents and even her siblings.
Making sure to make mental notes of various land marks which he could use to find his way back easily, he gave chase and found her, just in time, being attacked by several savage ferals - and in the blink of an eye, shot five hardened silver bullets towards them. Intending not to kill the savage ferals, the bullets scraped across their murderous skin, forcing the ferals to retreat into the pine forests.
Blaire, who was now safe, received a long talk delivered by her older brother as they made their way back to the castle, but since that day the two developed a close bond with each other. They were often seen in each other’s company for the rest of his duration at the castle, and, of course, during her training in which he offered his help towards her.
Unlike the rest of his siblings who broke the curfew several times, he preferred to abide by the curfew, and instead used the time to hone his abilities, mainly his eyesight and hearing, and dedicated the time to practice shooting his beloved revolver. Otherwise he could be found with Blaire or keeping watch on the pine forests to make sure none of the ferals came in a close proximity to the castle.
This continued for the rest of the year before he left the luxuries of the McKennen Castle behind him, setting off at the age of 19 to make himself a living in Scotland. Although, Malcolm did return to the McKennen Castle for Blaire’s Birthday and Christmas every year, sharing stories of his adventures in the “outside” world with his family, despite having “orders” to make his own life away from the luxuries of the McKennen Castle. This continued for 10 years, which is an entire decade, before Blaire became 19 and was ready to leave the luxuries of the McKennen Castle.
Malcolm, possibly for the last time in his life, returned to the McKennen Castle and picked up Blaire. Together they stepped out of their home, giving it one long last look, before disappearing into the pine forests together to make their own life in the world. To this day they still continue to travel together, trying to find a place where they can gather their bearings in peace instead of withholding their true nature from the public.
Personality:
Malcolm can best be described as being very posh and refined in all his actions and chooses to dress up in clothes that look like they are from the 17th or 18th century. Despite his charm, however, he is shown to be mistrustful of new faces which “make him nervous” but overall is a good person who has just had a series of bad experiences in the past with humans since leaving the McKennen Clan. It’s for this reason he can often be considered “over protective” of his sister, Blaire, and is often seen steeping into situations concerning her well-being.
Although, once he has learnt to trust someone overtime, he is shown to have great compassion towards them, going even as far as to consider them a part of the McKennen Clan. Otherwise he is intelligent and cunning, especially in dangerous situations, and doesn't hesitate to make the difficult decisions even if people will hate him for it.
Having spent years to specifically hone his eyesight and hearing, considering them the two most important senses, it’s fair to say that in time he has become quite an excellent marksman, capable of hitting “most” targets within firing range. It’s this area in his life that he chooses to display his good, and wicked, sense of humor, as he uses silver bullets, which, ironically, are one of the few things that can harm and kill him.
Likes/Dislikes:
Malcolm loves the McKennen Clan and especially his sister, Blaire, above all else, but when it comes to pastimes he loves shooting, hunting, reading and even writing. It’s not rare to find him practicing his shooting on a target or having his nose buried inside a book. What Malcolm doesn't like, however, is fire. It’s a long story… but it’s needless to say he is scared of it, and respects it. Otherwise he doesn't like discrimination, disloyalty and cheaters.
