Important Info:
- The Innocent Dove- the youngest son of Daylen, 20 and deeply sheltered from the dark life of his father and family. He has an idealized perception of the family, and so far has been spared from the truth.
- The Restless Soldier- the elder son of Daylen, 23 and angry at the world. He became a soldier, despite his parents protests, and was dishonorably discharged after several violent attacks against his fellow soldiers. He wants to join the family business but his over protective father has threatened to geld anyone who tries to bring him in.
- The Empress- Daylen’s wife. They married young; her parents were wealthy and they were able to manipulate them into giving her power of attorney. They took all their wealth and were eventually able to remove them entirely.
- The Game- from the time he was in his thirties, Daylen has made a bit of sport out of his infidelity. He seduces a man, gets him to fall in love with him and eventually murders him. He calls them his toys, or pets. It’s an open secret in the family that his various affairs will inevitably lead to the young man going missing. His murderous intent is tolerated by the family because Daylen is so useful.
- Motus Operandi- Daylen is a serial killer with a rather unusual ‘type’. He targets not racial groups, genders or sexualities but those he believes are simply... attractive. People he believes he can get to fall in love with him. Ultimately the age, gender and ethnicity of his targets are not relevant to him. So long as he or she is sexually attracted to him, they are a viable target.
Bio
Daylen grew up in relative privilege. In a powerful family with great expectations on him, he was under incredible pressure. As a young man that pressure nearly broke him, but in the end he became hardened by it. His own parents encouraged his monstrous future, seeking to make him strong. Tragically, they died when he was still fairly young. Inheriting their modest fortune, Daylen set aside what plans they had for his life and created his own.
Eventually marrying, he and his wife, his Empress, were a powerful pair. They walked a path of deception and challenges, and only together were they strong enough to succeed. His in-laws did not approve of the union, all too aware of the criminal element of Daylen’s rather large family. He knew his future would only be certain if he claimed power, and so the loving couple set out to claim her parent’s wealth and authority. Through a series of manipulations and calculated risks they were able to gain power of attorney over their fortune.
With that nest egg they began scheming once more. It took years, but Daylen was able to maneuver himself into a position of respect and power. He gained a place on the Council, and with his network of spies and informants he was able to uncover an investigation against the family. All it took was pulling the right strings. With naught but words and a few well placed vices he was able to unravel the investigation. With that masterful manipulation his value to the family was proven without a shadow of a doubt.
By this point their sons were born, and Daylen realized the terror of what it meant to be a parent. He saw in those squalling little humans his one true weakness. He would do anything to protect them. So he sheltered his children, keeping them safe from all harm and danger. Protecting them from the truth of the family business. He knows he cannot protect them forever, but Daylen would sooner see the world burn than let harm come to his children.
