Once Upon A Time - ACTIVE -- Name: Edric Liddell (Alias: Henry Carlyle), known in The Enchanted Forest and Wonderland as the Cheshire Cat Appearance: -- Height: 6'2" Weight: 160 pounds Wardrobe Style: Since returning back to Storybrooke, Henry's maturity of behavior is further made apparent by his 'evolution' of clothing. His typical apparel now consists of a tie-less three piece suit (coming either in black or gray) with a white or light blue button down shirt, and slightly beat up brown or black leather shoes. He keeps a rotary gents watch strapped to his left wrist, and still uses his tortoiseshell rectangle-framed glasses on occasion. Example Outfits: Age: 28 Status and Job: English teacher at Storybrooke Elementary Skills: Henry was born to be a showman, extremely charismatic and eloquent with a sharp wit to boot. His friendly, cheery demeanor and warm inviting smile are usually enough to defuse any tension in a situation with ease. Henry's natural way with words, as well as an ample amount of ingenuity and creativity make him as capable a liar as he is a speaker, able to spin tales together into capable falsehoods with little-to-no indication of deception. As a result of Henry's apparent maturity upon returning from The Enchanted Forest and Wonderland, he's overcome most, if not all of his emotional turmoil, as well as adopting much of The Cheshire Cat's patience and long-term thinking into his own lifestyle, making him slower, more calculated; less likely to form haphazard plans or make rash actions. Henry is a quick learner, and can pick up on most any skill in a relatively short amount of time, though he finds the creative arts more to his liking as opposed to anything laborious. Because of his interest in such topics, as well as bouncing from job-to-job in New York, Henry displays adept skill in cooking, mixology, singing, dancing, photography, and art. Talents: Henry has inherit dexterity and reflexes that are far above-average, the skills he gained as a street magician only furthering this ability. As such, he can execute sleight of hand, card tricks, and even a bit of pickpocketing with ease when the need calls for it. Though not much of a musician back home, Henry has an inborn talent to play music, specifically the piano, an instrument he is well-practiced in, his natural deftness coming in handy when it comes to playing. Henry is an avid reader of books, his thirst for knowledge coupled with his quick learning allow him to absorb information like a sponge; becoming well-versed in the topics of history, English, mythology, magic, psychology, philosophy, and religion as a result. Strengths: Henry's time living alone in The Enchanted Forest before being roped into Rumpelstiltskin's plans has left him with a heightened sense of instinct and perception, as well as heightened senses and reflexes. He can sniff out deceit or disguise easily, and is rarely tricked, though it has happened before. Henry is a capable researcher, highly skilled at finding information wherever he can. This makes him well-prepared for most situations that will arise as he constantly hungers for new things to learn. His time spent in poverty in Wonderland before becoming a magician allows him to empathize with the common people, as well as leave him a capable set of "street-smarts". Lastly, Henry is quite aware of his attractive features, and thusly never wastes an opportunity to look nice, whether it be how he styles his hair, dresses, or otherwise presents himself. Though not the richest man around, he strives to look the richest. Weaknesses: Though toning down his licentious, womanizing nature, as well as attempting to grow up and settle down, Henry's biggest weakness still lies in his cowardice and unwillingness to confront issues. He's been a runner for many years, and doesn't have any intentions of stopping. As a result of this, Henry will suppress his issues inside of him, as opposed to openly facing up to them. This causes him to shell up and push away others who would like to help. Secondly, Henry still can be somewhat arrogant at times, due both to his magical prowess, as well as his intelligence. Because of this, he can occasionally come across as rude or insulting, though this is far more subdued than it was before. Lastly, Henry still has the small battle of the nasty smoking and drinking habit he picked up over the course of his life. Though far from out of control, it is still a bad habit he needs to quit. Relationships: -Strongly dislikes Mr. Gold/Rumpelstiltskin for personal reasons, who shares this animosity in kind. However, the both of them are seen commonly speaking or assisting each other, though this is more likely out of common need than benevolence. -Shares a mutual disdain with The Evil Queen, known in this land as Mayor Regina Mills. Though considering her a nemesis to be vanquished, Henry does revel in the fact that there is information he knows but she does not. -Is the true love of Dr. Faye Stevenson, known as Dr. Heather Jekyll in the Land Without Color. Though originally a volatile relationship due to his noncommittal behavior and unwillingness to be serious, he is finally starting to settle down and accept Heather as his one true love. -Has an interesting relationship with Evelyn Hyde. Though she is as much a part of the whole individual as Heather is, Henry is painfully aware that one wrong step could end with the violent woman slaughtering him. Nonetheless, the two of them oftentimes share provocative conversations, usually ending with a night of passion. -Has a friendly but not close relationship with Nick Chopper, otherwise known as Mark Dufresne. Though the two have clashing personalities and interests that make most chats awkward, Henry will nevertheless seek the older man out for sensible advice and guidance when he feels lost, the woodsman more than happy to oblige. -Gets along well enough with Ruby, or Red Riding Hood. Though he never interacted much with her persona in The Enchanted Forest, he finds himself getting along with her Storybrooke counterpart quite well. Though at one point physically attracted to her (ending in a drunken lovemaking session) Henry tries to keep the relationship purely platonic. -Has interacted very little with Count Roland, known in this world as Sheriff Robert Leland. Despite barely knowing each other aside from name and occupation, Henry holds him at a distance as the sheriff's curse causes him to be a completely-loyal servant to Regina's will, obeying her every command. -Dislikes David Nolan for his 'trespassing' onto Henry's and Snow White's friendship. Though Henry holds an air of brittle courtesy around the 'King', he will make his disdain known on occasion. Besides all this, Henry harbors no wish of rebellion or revolution, simply too uncaring of authority to be so bold. Nonetheless, Henry will never refer to him as 'King', or 'Your Majesty'. -Maintains an acquaintance with Snow White, or Mary Margaret...though the relationship is far from being what it was years ago, due both to Snow's shift in behavior and his hatred of order and rules. Henry fears the friendship may be severed soon, unless it is saved by both parties involved. Brief Bio: Transformed into a grinning cat by Rumpelstiltskin's dark magic, a strange turn of events has allowed the illusionist operating under the name Alexandre to find himself in the Land Without Magic, free from the effects of the Evil Queen's Curse, retaining the memories of his other life. The Cat, now calling himself Henry Carlyle was transported to New York, an undoubtedly daunting location for his first trip to the Land Without Magic. Quickly being forced to adjust himself to modern technologies and styles, Henry spent the first five years of his trip bouncing from job to job, becoming a seasoned veteran of the modern world. Eventually feeling himself lose purpose of his true mission, Henry pooled his funds together and made the expensive journey to Maine, to break the Dark Curse and free the inhabitants of The Enchanted Forest and beyond from the Evil Queen's grasp. Music Gallery: Henry's Theme Other: Though an expert in modern-day pop culture, Henry's interests are far more 'vintage' in style. His most prized possession is a Walkman cassette tape player loaded to the brim with Oldie pieces from the early 1900s. He also enjoys a good book from that time period, the classics being the most interesting to read, in his opinion. Also, on a slightly strange note, Henry has an odd addiction to candy, either keeping a moderate amount in his pockets or fishing to grab some from anyone foolish enough to have some available. Lastly, while Henry is currently driving a rather worn-down Nissan Leopard, he is currently pooling funds together for an Eggshell Blue Citroën DS 21 Pallas.

Nightmares - INACTIVE -- Name: Kincaid 'Cade' Washington Age: 30 Gender: Male Appearance: Former Occupation: Formerly a bodyguard of the Sundowner organization. Mode of Operation: Gunslinger History: Before entering the Nightmare Protocol, Kincaid Washington functioned as a regular member of society in the United Front. Though not directly a soldier or security officer, he served as part of a powerful and well-known bodyguard and bounty hunter organization known only as Sundowner. The organization was famously known for frequently assisting with the local government/law enforcement, even occasionally branching off towards vigilantism. As such, being a member was by no means shameful, and Cade was considered an honorary officer for his work there. Despite the reputation his job was given, Cade tried to keep a low-profile, and simply did the jobs he was paid for; only occasionally going out of his way. This career gave Cade a semi-prosperous, if slightly unstable life to enjoy. However, when the Faithful began using "The Word" against United Front cities, drastic measures had to be taken. Sundowner was temporarily integrated into the military, and the Nightmare Protocol was enacted as a countermeasure to the Faithful's immense power. Now without a job, running out of money, and the fear that his entire nation would be destroyed: Cade signed up, undergoing surgery to become something better. Loadout: Cade carries a light loadout to minimize weight while maximizing effectiveness. His typical mission loadout consists of four high-grade pistols that come with detachable silencers for discreet killings, hairpin triggers, and extra ammo hidden on his person. Along with these are a large amount of throwing knives, a grappling gun, and a combat knife.
