NAME: Dominic Jackson Lucius
ALIAS: The Painter, My artist friend, Jack.
AGE: Twenty-seven
APPEARANCE: Dominic is always dressed appropriately to his artistic pursuits, wearing modern fashion, from suits to t-shirts dependant on the occasion. He has spikey medium length black hair that most times in kept in a messy fashion or combed back.
PERSONALITY: Dominic is seemingly obsessive with his artistic pursuits, always drawing sketching or painting. Whether upon napkins at a coffee shop or at his own personal art studio, his seemingly eclectic nature however allows him to blend in with ease to most social situations.
Dominic hides behind a facade of gentle curteosy and kind tone, though his seemingly real care for others is relatively genuine, he still tries more often then not to be perceived as something he isn't exactly.
At his core he is a foul mouthed cynic who's disinterest in the normal trappings of humanity are only able to be curbed through his artistic expression, believing it to be his window to humanity's core. He is known for provacative art that bends the norm of modern day excepted art pieces.
ALLIANCE: Vagabond
HISTORY: Dominic was raised by the silver spoon, his parents being very wealthy. Though they were rarely around being gone on business most of the time. Dominic grew up going through life with all his needs provided for him, going to the best school, buying whatever his adolscent heart craved. Slwoly as age set on the stale feeling of riches was overwhelming and as Dominic went through his teenage years he sought out a way to feel more connected to other people. It didn't come easily as dominic had lived a completely different life then those less fortunate then him, and never quite seeing eye to eye with the ego's of other wealthy youth. He eventually sought out his expression through artistic expression, painting, drawing, whatever the scenario he would be found creating some art or working on ideas for his next piece. It became his obsession to deal with his lack of connection to humanity around him.
A few months after dominic turned eighteen was when his parents passed away in a horrible plane crash. Being totally devastated by the accident Dominic fell into a state of depression, and eventually hide from the world. This situation lead to a distraction for a time but inevitably his visions and sightings would get worse and worse, seeing them as never before he needed a way to mourn but was never given the opportunity.
It was late one night when he was painting a piece of art, that his depression reached its lowest point. Flowing tears down his face as he painted, his feelings of pain overcame him and he was lost in a sea of regret and hatred for his existance. This was the night when in a strange moment as he was painting a surge of energy overtook him and his fullbring manifested, tieing him to the only release of emotion he seemed to have, his paint brush.
He had always seen strange and weird things throughout his life, ghosts and things, but he had always shrugged them off as imagination or the like until after the fullbrings waking. After this interaction with his destiny however that was no longer possible, idle visions became strange truths haunting Dominic's waking hours. He needed to find a way to deal with these issues but it was seemingly impossible he didn't know what to do.
So with the massive inheritance from his parents fortune Dominic went into hiding for several years, traveling the known world learning what he was piece by piece and practicing his abilities as time went on. He spent eight years traveling around learning all that he could about who and what he was, and when there were no more trails to follow and no more pieces to the puzzle that he could find he made his way back to New York.
Over the last year since arriving in New York Dominic has opened a small art gallery, he uses the art pieces he sells to create connections around the city with all sorts of human groups interested in the art scene. In time his other abilities would hit the rumor mill as it were and it would become somewhat known who he was and what he could do.
