[b][color=bcd4e6]Personality[/color][/b]
[list][*][i][SELF-CONFIDENT][/i] – Whether Demetrius realizes it or not, he picked up a lot of traits and skills from his father, one of which is his confidence in himself. Being born into a family of such high esteem, he’s used to keeping up the strong and positive image of the Chiklis name, but that confidence has seeped into his personal life as well. He has no issues justifying his own reasons for saying or doing what he wants, though he can be quick to tear down others for being “dumb”. 

[*][i][IRRESPONSIBLE][/i] – The only thing Demetrius holds himself responsible for is… nothing. Was it his fault he’d gotten held up in the traffic and arrived five minutes late? Was it his fault that he’d accidentally left a borrowed book lying around, and that it had gotten stolen? Was it his fault that he’s just too damned attractive to belong on God’s green earth? The answer to those questions, of course, is a clear, resounding: [i]no[/i]. In fact, the speed at which Demetrius runs away from responsibilities can only be rivaled by the speed at which he can pick up a girl.

[*][i][VIOLENT][/i] – As is his nature, Demetrius is a violent being. His aggression, whilst it can manifest itself in words, prefers to manifest itself in punches thrown. Angering Demetrius usually means risking a black eye, but there are a few people with whom he will go out of his way to punch a wall instead of their face. He’s constantly teetering on the edge, and it doesn’t take much to set him off.

[*][i][MATERIALISTIC][/i] – Demetrius doesn’t believe in the saying “less is more.” He believes that “more is better” - and the prettier or more expensive something is, the more worthwhile it’s bound to be. Objects, ownership, and wealth are his three most important priorities; the bigger things in life - like his future - aren’t priorities to him. After all, with his seemingly bottomless supply of cash, what [i]doesn’t[/i] he deserve?

[*][i][PERSISTENT][/i] - Used to getting his own way for most of his younger years, Demetrius finds it hard to let go of anything once he has a grasp on it. He doesn’t hold back when it’s sucking up to a acquaintance to get on their good side, or wheedling yet another loan from his father. He’s willing to do whatever it takes to get someone to help him, and will try a million tactics before he’ll decide to give up --that is, if the other party still has the patience to deal with him then. He’s got his eyes set on Hermia, and a billion ways to pursue her. For someone like Demetrius, backing down just isn’t an option.

[*][i][JEALOUS][/i] – What Demetrius wants, Demetrius gets. Often though, what he wants is what somebody else has. The very thought of not being able to obtain it for himself drives him insane, and it’s well known around town that if you have something you really want to keep, not to let him hear about it. Because nine times out of ten, his jealousy will get the better of him and he will do all he can to get the object or person of his desire.[/list]

[b][color=bcd4e6]Biography[/color][/b]
[indent]Demetrius grew up in Coventry, Warwickshire, the youngest son to a wealthy businessman and his beautiful wife. The Chiklis name, as one of the primary shipping magnates in the United Kingdom, were, and continue to be, one of the richest and most influential names on the continent. From the day he was born, Demetrius had everything he wanted handed to him on a silver platter. To outsiders, his life was enviable. But behind closed doors, things were quite different.

Demetrius’s parents were far too busy with work to deal with a child, and so, tended to leave him and his siblings in the care of a nanny. This detachment between parent and child, perhaps, was why Demetrius’s troubling behaviour went undetected. People never seemed to like staying around him for long, with the exception of Helena, a childhood friend. His carers had a curious habit of never lasting more than a month at a time - the frequency and intensity of his sometimes self-destructive tantrums driving them away from the Chiklis estate. Simply shrugging it off as the unreliability of the working class, Demetrius’s parents turned a blind eye to these so-called [i]“episodes”[/i]. As far as they were concerned, there was nothing wrong with him -- well, apart from being spoilt rotten, that is.

Demetrius was the kind of kid who cut people's hair while they weren't looking, or caught bugs just to burn them under a magnifying glass. He even set fire to one of his classmates’s lockers -- by accident, of course, and no one was injured. Just by flashing those doe eyes of his, Demetrius got out of a lot of trouble as a child. But the final straw came during the first week of third form when Demetrius stabbed an upperclassman three times in the neck with a drawing compass for calling him names. Sitting in the headmaster’s office with his still-bloody hands folded in his lap, he had done his best to look contrite while his mother did all the talking.

Like all children that didn’t quite fit in, Demetrius had a lonely childhood. He blazed through the school curriculum all too quickly, driven to boredom and frustration by the lack of challenge that school presented. But it was only a matter of time until he graduated, and the then nineteen year-old Demetrius enrolled in Oxford that very same year. There, he threw himself into his coursework, desperate for something that would actually engage him. Of course, it didn’t help that whenever he returned home in the summer, Helena would be there, clinging onto him with all her might like a lovesick puppy. All that excess energy pumping through his veins needed somewhere to go, and Demetrius soon discovered where that ‘somewhere’ was.

Tired of Helena’s constant mithering, Demetrius was pleased to find out about an arrangement that his father had made while he’d been away. An engagement between him and Hermia, a girl from an equally affluent family, to keep both their wealth and reputation intact. Finally, he’d be rid of infuriating, pesky Helena. Or at least that’s what he thinks is going to happen. Little does Demetrius know, however, his fiancée has a fella on the side, though it’s not going to take him much longer to find out.[/indent]
