[sub][i]"Jerbear."[/i] - Given to him from Piper Deveraux. & [i]"Ray."[/i] - Given to him by his parents.[/sub]

July 6th, 1990. [color=a8a8a8]♦[/color] Twenty-Five. [color=a8a8a8]♦[/color] Male. [color=a8a8a8]♦[/color] Heterosexual.[/center]

	[sub][ ♕ ] R E L A T I O N S H I P  S T A T U S[/sub][hr][indent][color=a8a8a8]Complicatedly Dating. Speculation and rumour has clouded Jer's bachelor status over the years, colouring his availability in mutinous shades of grey from lack of confirmation of whether or not he's actively pursing a fellow musician, such being none other than the Piper Melandrie Deveraux, a well famed violinist. Aside from their accompanying concerts and performances across the states in various [i]galas[/i], and even recordings, there is little else to testify to their mutual affections; but figures of a held hand here, an arm draped over the shoulders, and a press of a kiss to a cheek have amplified their duet into being [i]"covertly shagging."[/i][/color][/indent]

	[sub][ ♕ ] P R O F E S S I O N[/sub][hr][indent][color=a8a8a8]Musician - [i]Classical Venue: Piano & Cello[/i] - [i]D'Cahors Hall Instructor.[/i][/color][/indent] 

	[sub][ ♕ ] I N  D E P T H  A P P E A R A N C E[/sub][hr][indent][color=a8a8a8]The debut of the D'Cahor heir is defamed as being of the nontraditional masculinity sort, his appearance borders androgynous frailty, a feminine sort of glean that resisters in the sharp planes of his frame; all composed of lanky limbs, wiry muscle, and a sort of balletic grace reserved of a man in his profession. Contrary to his occupation and fame, Jer is donned with sporadic ink and pierced lobes with an identical hoop pierced through his nostril, this, compounded by the erratic dishevelment of his hair - flaxen strands of wheat and waterlogged blonde that peak at the ridge of his jaw - Jer is the least bit visually confirmed as a classical prodigy. Adhering his slender physique, Jer caps out at just a bit of six feet, befitting to his stature enough to be considered appealing. His impression is betrayed as a slight man swathed in every shade of black and grey imaginable, his initial introductions appear stoic, reserved, and perhaps aloof, but the glimmer of mischief ignites far into eyes of tumultuous blue, only clouded by the immersion of work and music when his muse captures his heart in a vice.

The D'Cahors pride themselves not only on musical capability, but also appearances, and whilst Jer is a walking pallet of monochromatic, the finery of his threads are cues to their abundant wealth. Casually done-up is a common term issued, expense hardly wasted on their wardrobes. Staying true to his preference of self-representation though, Jer will stand casually swathed in a fleece pullover and ebony trousers, all made from ridiculously priced sources of course, but the consistency never wavers unless performing publicly.[/color][/indent] 

	[sub][ ♕ ] H A B I T S, Q U I R K S, O D D I T I E S[/sub][hr][indent][color=a8a8a8]Jer will, more often than not, drum his fingers in a rhythm, mimicking the pings and keys of a piano, constantly burdened by the music that canters and plays through his mind at a constant. He does much the same with mimicking the pull and play of his Cello, even going as far to posture himself as if straddling around the instrument and humming the tunes to accompany his miming. This is sometimes done violently, pending to his state of mind and well famed style of manic performing, despite all reservations of the music industry he dominates. 

He possess a quirk of twirling his piercings with his forefinger and thumb, be it the hoop in his nose, or those picked to his ears, either one will suffice when anxiety and nervous qualms over take his stagnant thoughts. With his slight fidgeting, Jer possess the long bourne penchant of biting on pen caps.

On the low-key side of observation, Jer is a routine smoker, much to the displeasure of his partner.[/color][/indent] 

	[sub][ ♕ ] H O B B I E S[/sub][hr][indent][color=a8a8a8]Writing music, usually vast amounts of sheets and scores, Jer has taken up the hobby of writing his own compared to covering older, much more respected performers long before his age. This hobby sometimes spans to lyrics and fantasy operas and entire scores that encompass an orchestra, but none ever seem to make appearances outside his abundant amount of binders containing them. Commonly he translates popular pop culture songs into various versions befitting his primary instruments. 

Considered to go in hand with his primary hobby, the pianist is an avid reader, usually burying his concentration in sheet music and compositions by fellow musicians. The fact that he sometimes shreds these into mere confetti is often bypassed as another source of anxiety, but is best left to its own and not to be questioned. 

He wouldn't say it aloud, and he'd do his best to avoid public rumour and speculation, but Jer has the notion to venture into various forms of music, desiring to master all instruments and eventually practice his vocals to give some of his jotted down lyrics a meaning to their bland scrawl. Thus far this hobby has remained uncultured, due to his latest tour of concerts.[/color][/indent]

	[sub][ ♕ ] P E R S O N A L I T Y  T R A I T S[/sub][hr][indent][color=a8a8a8]Mischievous, Boisterous, Dedicated, Perfectionist and Complex Anxiety.[/color][/indent]

	[sub][ ♕ ] P E R S O N A L I T Y[/sub][hr][indent][color=a8a8a8]With flourishes of laughter, twinkling mischief and playful inclinations, Jer is the primary creature of light hearted methods and teasing, the latter done onto those closest to him. It might contradict the music he plays, but it swells into the manic spread of emotions he creates from those black and white keys. Jer has developed his own style, his own method to ensuring that his music reaches those of his intended, going as far as to butcher the score with his rapid, violent playing, and it somehow fits him. Clinging to him much like a second skin, the ability Jer possess is prodigy standard, his genius practice laced with his animated laughter and figure. A source of eternal exuberance and cheer, the sort of man that dallies and is all the dressings of an easy going person of well off fanfare. These glimmering smiles, wide and bold, are easily swept into spontaneity, Jer's sudden decisions done and performed with little logic, all for the sake of a laughter to be shared later, at whichever expense is exploited.

However, under the impressions of the sun, the shadows fester and brew. Dark, deep, dismal pools that can reap a man's heart, and sometimes, his soul. Jer's anxiety is compounded by the weight of his fame and the name uttered frequently in the music industry, his family is a sire of wealth and fortune, and coloured in the hues of violet hubris. In this, Jer has become nothing but dedicated to the music, to his instrument, nearly bordering an obsession to the score and a slave to his muse. It has bred and fostered a perfectionist within him, in which constantly battles against his manic and aggressive methods, toying with him daily; much like a cat to a string. But, if he is to perform like a wraith under the influences of his own emotions, then he just must do so perfectly - anything short is insultingly unacceptable. His disorders are sometimes told as insufferable, mostly muttered by those who perform with him or those that he will accompany, and none but Piper have been able to endure Jer's technique.[/color][/indent]

[indent][sub]Former award winning musical prodigy, retired violinist. Highly famed instructor, originally from the Blanchard family of renown musicians.[/sub][/indent]
[ [color=ffffff]father[/color] ] Raymond Carlton D'Cahors III. 
[indent][sub]Former award winning musician for his famous composition [i]LeFortescue[/i], retired pianist and conductor. Currently heads the various D'Cahors company and halls, third generation of the D'Cahors line.[/sub][/indent][/color][/indent]

	[sub][ ♕ ] H I S T O R Y[/sub][hr][indent][color=a8a8a8]From the beginning, Jer's fate was a tapestry woven ahead of his conception, his mere thought and pondering birth laid out in a rigid intention without any room for individuality. Hardly anything else was to be expected from such figures, both Cordelia and Raymond still adorned in the lamplight of fame, fortune, and mutterings of their well determined match. It was with little ceremony that the violinist from the Blanchard household would find hand in the D'Cahors; it was a match made under romanticized companionship, the composer, the accompanist, the duet that would later spear head into affairs and matches. To say it was intentional, to see the two paired in every concert, gala and company hall would be quietly disputed - romance happened in all shades to musicians. Jer was bourne to play the piano, he was sat down at a small age, carefully constructed and conformed to perform even when he could barely reach the keys with his babe hands. The world received the D'Cahors heir with almost bestial fanfare, speculation to his would-be fame already being printed, he was meant for grandiose promises and little else would be given to and taken from him. Such was the predetermined destiny of every D'Cahors.

Life and fame often called away his parents, but Jer understood this necessity under a very young age and was well endured under the act of smiling, laughing and performing to the masses that he was nothing else but a wonderfully loved boy, doted on daily. Homeschooled, raised by nannies and under the music of the piano, he was performing and perfectly executing Chopin at the age of eight and by eleven he was performing in the same concert halls as his parents - a prodigy, a genius, all done under long hours, endless nights, and legacy burdened to him. Flourishment was found within him in spades, sort of a naturalist impression until the manic routines began, his music and playing took on a harder edge, a bruising sort of quality that alarmed most if not all who had become docile under his younger musings. Some were even offended, finding little respect in Jer's sudden [i]rebellion[/i] to the score - Cordelia and Raymond thought this is a performance of revenge against his upbringing. But, the truth had little to do with vengeance, Jer was just simply finding his niche, his forte, his call to the piano he loved so dearly that had been there in the place of his family from the beginning of his tutelage. Whilst considered blasphemous, Jer's tactics and techniques continued to swell, sometimes the music would brood, sometimes it would sire anger, and sometimes it was so raw and powerful, it left halls mute and awe struck. Such was Jer D'Cahors' effect on the world.

But, hidden was the sweltering anxiety within himself, something that burned and could only be tamed by the routines of summer spent at the beach, to release and uncoil, to allow himself a moment of reprieve from the pressure of his daily life. Though it was fleeting, Jer found relief and peace in those days, even if the following Fall saw him to records, concerts, and albums and eventually into Piper Deveraux when he turned fifteen. Their first duet sealed their contracts, finding them both performing together often, if not almost religiously until their soloist performances. Since then, Jer has been rumoured to be on the downward spiral, almost purely destructive with a smile torn across his face the entire time.[/color][/indent] 

	[sub][ ♕ ] E X T R A[/sub][hr][indent][indent][color=a8a8a8][sub]♢ There are many D'Cahors Companies and Halls scattered across the states, with two found over seas. While mostly cultivated on music, D'Cahors also lead into the performing arts and dance.
♢ Jer has always wondered why Cordelia and Raymond have decided on one child, he's never had the courage to ask why.
♢ Favourite celebrity: Natalie Dormer.[/sub][/color][/indent][/indent][hr]

[indent][sub][color=#cecece][i]Single[/i] - Known to live the "bachelor's life", the tabloids like to paint a wide picture as to why Yuri has yet to shake up with any of the ladies ever on his arm. Always seen waving to his "dates", as they were, off in cabs or other forms of transportation, but never sliding in for a night of companionship. Various speculation suggests Yuri resembles his mother, never settling for anything but the best; such assumption spark a lot of controversy when seen out with aspiring actresses, ablaze from previous "Oscar" worthy performances.[/color][/sub][/indent]

[indent][sub][color=#cecece]Director and Screenwriter[color=9bcef8]*[/color] - Has written for numerous TV Shows, though he's directed for a few movies. Most of them are independent - ways to stretch his wings - though a few have been critically acclaimed. Those have only been co-directed, however.[/color][/sub][/indent]

[color=9bcef8][[color=#7b7b7b]▣[/color]][/color] [u][color=#d8d8d8][b]In Depth Appearance[/b][/color][/u]
[indent][sub][color=#cecece]Patient is a startling 6'4" and weighs 198 lbs with a body mass index of 24.1; blonde hair, blue eyes, caucasian, male. Most weight carried in the torso, where the muscle seems heavier set and thicker - though the legs aren't spared a rigorous, routine exercise, they just lack the heavy definition and attention paid to his upper half. Patient contains an athletic build geared more toward lifting heavy objects than speed or endurance (note: nurse screamed in Spanish upon accidentally sneaking up on him; something about a large bear, a few choice words, and a slap to the face that ended up smacking his neck). Extremely healthy individual with little to no scarring, aside from the starburst just above his right eyebrow. No tattoos or piercings seen. Lacks a sex life (apparently). Carries himself with a perfect, almost rigid posture and prefers not to be touched for lengthy periods of time - only allows efficient, clinical touches. Voice is deep, as usual, with a very soft lilt to it (can slip into a self-trained, Russian accent because why not intimidate my nurses more?) Blood pressure normal. Has increased chance of heart arrhythmia due to genetics and a lower than normal alcohol tolerance, as well as an increased risk for liver disease...[/color][/sub][/indent]

[indent][sub][color=#cecece][i]Notes from his therapist:[/i]
[color=9bcef8]*[/color] Due to a brief few months of deafness (onset by a severe case of influenza), when put in a stressful situation, Yuri reverts to ASL to speak and refuses to put voice to words.
[color=9bcef8]*[/color] Can't seem to stare people in the eyes - a possible case of the usual parental problems, i.e. daddy issues.
[color=9bcef8]*[/color] Rather impersonal and very dismissive, especially concerning anything he does wrong. Shuts down easily, as if disregarding the matter entirely fixes it. A case of "ignore the problem and it goes away." When this doesn't work, he tends to turn on himself before anyone else has the chance to. Make a joke out of yourself and you don't become one.
[color=9bcef8]*[/color] Worried he had epilepsy as Mr. Tchaikovsky tends to space out often and with little warning. However, looking closer, it's very easy to tell when something disinterests Mr. Tchaikovsky as he tends to slowly let his eyes flit away from where his attention should be until he can safely crawl back into his own mind.
[color=9bcef8]*[/color] When given a pen and paper, Mr. Tchaikovsky scribbles inbetween his words; the margins of his journal are filled with countless scratches and he goes through pens alarmingly fast.
[color=9bcef8]*[/color] Fixates on one aspect of a person, not in order to remember them (he has quite an average memory), but rather because he tends to pay closer attention to the smaller things, rather than the big picture. Has slipped and called me "Polka Dot Bow Tie" on numerous occasions and, "Lisp" for my receptionist - not out of spite, I've noticed.[/color][/sub][/indent]

[indent][sub][color=#cecece][color=9bcef8]*[/color] Of the numerous things Yuri does, most of them are for work, in one form or another. However, he does gravitate toward writing smaller projects, such as poems and short stories. The latter, of course, often ventures into fan fiction, something he tells no one... ever. He's a secret nerd.
[color=9bcef8]*[/color] Being a writer, in general, means countless reading and most, if not all, of it is devoted to research. Accuracy when writing is a great skill to have. However, as a hobby, Yuri tends to read whatever he can get his hands on. He's a particular fan of older works, like Jane Eyre, and fantasy, like C.S. Lewis.
[color=9bcef8]*[/color] And, of course, Yuri wouldn't be himself if he didn't rigorously exercise three times out of the week. He also jogs every morning before starting the day. He particularly loves swimming.[/color][/sub][/indent]

[color=9bcef8][[color=#7b7b7b]▣[/color]][/color] [u][color=#d8d8d8][b]Personality[/b][/color][/u]
[indent][sub][color=#cecece]A mystifying individual. With sweeping gestures and a pair of furrowed brows, Yuri embodies a Michelangelo statue with the grace of a thoughtful expression, laced in the marble curves of his hard jawline. He's an unmistakable figure sitting down and a beacon of stern eyes standing. Undoubtedly, many people see Yuri as a constant, a wave of force to back up the intimidating tilt of his shoulders and the confidence in the jut of his chin. Yuri, to a person withheld the grace of his actual company, personifies the stereotypical terror settled in a mountain of a man of Russian decent — someone who drips vodka and Soviet Union from iron pressed suits. People's perspective of Yuri detail exactly what Yuri wants people to perceive. All of his machismo, the stoicism, build up a great act and an even better wall. If people are too intimidated to find out that there's more to Yuri, all the better to hide himself in that shell.

Beyond the cold aura, Yuri comprises of a man lacking any self-worth with no idea of how to fix what's always been broken. Not ironically so, as is a common occurrence, underneath the stoic demeanor lies a man who feels deeper than most. For Yuri, challenges come in not being swayed by his emotions, rather than feeling them, at all. Many, many times, Yuri prefers to ignore his problems and his emotions tend to comprise of 90% of those problems and the 10% being people, in general. Ignorance, however, forces Yuri to always look in on himself in a light he's not too fond of. Most of Yuri's anger can be focused on that sole point, allowing him to overcome petty frustrations caused by other people. What he does for other people stems from both his need to please his family and a need lack of worth for himself. However, that does nothing to lessen the impact and sincerity of his actions. His smile is real and his offered hand is even more so.[/color][/sub][/indent]

[color=9bcef8][[color=#7b7b7b]▣[/color]][/color] [u][color=#d8d8d8][b]History[/b][/color][/u]
[indent][sub][color=#cecece]The Tchaikovsky family's legacy starts with Afon Tchaikovsky becoming a new man, moving to America with his wife in tow and a baby coming sooner than planned. Both he and his wife had already paved the way to fame and fortune through calloused hands, sweat, and blood, but no tears. They started from scratch in Saint Petersburg and made something of themselves within Russia's dearth scene. America seemed the next step and with Afon soaring in on an already influential stream of work and dedication, along with his Wife's various gigs both within Russia and outside of it, allowed them to land a spot that gave them the acclaim they needed. Now it was just raw talent and connections allowing Afon to pick a spot ahead of the game.

A son (and a possible heir, to Afon, at least) came with the move, and the quiet year allowed the two to raise Yuri well enough to pass him on to a nanny when the move from Reno to Los Angeles came quicker than expected. However, where his father saw a boy to take over his legacy, his wife saw otherwise and did her best to nurture and raise Yuri to be as good a man as she could make him. That quickly became a task once his father began toting around his personal assistant, conditioning young Yuri to be a spitting image of his father. That didn't work out as well as the man thought and before he knew it, he'd lost his hold on the young boy. Aspirations and ideas found themselves inside Yuri's head and with the idea that he needed to please his father, Yuri took to them with a determination far beyond an adolescent. The disappointment facing him turned that idea on its head.

To curb this enthusiasm for things Afon deemed trivial, he took Yuri to his closest friends, a tight knit circle of parents with kids of their own. He'd hoped the influence would turn Yuri around, show him the wonders of what his father offered him and the talent that he could nurture and develop. For a moment, it did. It allowed Afon to plant that crippling idea that he needed to live up to what his father expected of him, no matter the cost. From there on, it was nothing but disappointment and that destroyed Yuri. It pushed him further into the shell he hadn't known surrounded him and forced him to build barriers against a world he felt worked against him.

That notion propelled him through high school and college with hard set goals in mind and a lack of friends who he considered tried and true, like those he'd see come summer. Further on, he experienced nothing but crippling failure from his father and a flop he always thought he'd been responsible for. And a divorce that sprouted from it. If he felt responsible for the failure of a movie, he felt even more so about this. However, his mother reassured him and pushed him in a direction she thought fit him best - just a suggestion and nothing more, but he took to it like a mission. Because, if there was anything he didn't want to do it was disappointing another parent. That also meant showing up to his regularly scheduled appointments with his assigned therapist.

Who he is and what he wants to become seem to be the core of Yuri's problems. Moving on from one parent's idea of him to the other doesn't seem to be the best choice, something his therapist tells him to always keep in mind. Always asks, "What do you want, Yuri? What do you want?" and he can never quite wrap his mind around an answer. Or, at least, something he deems sufficient enough to be considered an answer.[/color][/sub][/indent]

| [color=990000][b]Personality Traits[/b][/color] |
Easy to talk to, rarely acts anything less than neutral, has few true friends, difficult to make angry,
difficult to calm down, and gets aggressive with everyone.

| [color=990000][b]Personality[/b][/color] |
She is generally laid back and carefree making her easy to talk to and get along with. Though she is
almost always friendly she tries to keep people as arms length as possible actually and becoming her
friend takes a lot of effort and time on their part. It is worth it in the end however as once you have
earned her friendship you have it for life along with her trust. This does come with a downside however
as if you do something to ruin that friendship you are never getting it back. The best you can hope for is
neutrality with her.
While she is never one to negativity outwards she does deal with it in her own way. The hardest thing
to do however is piss her off. It takes a lot of poke and prodding. To the point where you have to almost
be doing it intentionally. Once she does get angry though it is never pretty. She gets aggressive and
difficult to deal with as the aggression isn't aimed at any one thing everyone nearby gets hit with it.
Calming her down is a chore as it usually takes lots of fighting and training to get it out of her system.
Though she almost always feels bad afterward for those who she yelled at after she calms down.

| [color=990000][b]Place Of Origin[/b][/color] |
She was born in her mothers large personal house in Gig Harbor, WA.

| [color=990000][b]Family[/b][/color] |

neither one hates the other.
Irene Miller – Mother – Actress and Model – The two of them are extremely close.
Rose Miller – Twin Sister – College Student for Business – The two of them are incredibly close and
protective of each other.
Alice Miller – Younger Sister – High School Freshmen – They have a close but rocky relationship.

| [color=990000][b]History[/b][/color] |
She was as the oldest of two twins in her mothers private residence with no complications. Her early
childhood was fairly normal for a kid like her. She had everything she wanted, loving parents, private
tutors in the eveings, and a nanny among other things. Life was perfect for her until after her younger
sister Alice was born. Life was starting to get bland. She had too many things, her tutors classes didn't
interest her, and didn't really have many friends in school. She started to become a “problem child.”
She got into fights with other kids, some of her grades started slipping, sneaking out, and was just
generally causing problems. That caused many problems at home and fights with her father. It was
around this time that she began getting close with her nanny and one of the live in bodyguards.
Her nanny took it upon herself to get close with her so in hopes that she would calm down having
another person other than her mother and father and it helped she did calm down some and though she
still got into fights though much less often. They eventually grew so close that she was like a second
mother to her. Around the same time she also found one of the bodyguards training in the yard one day
while he was training. She was fascinated by the moves he was doing and watched for several days
before approaching and asking him what he was doing and if he could teach her. He was extremely
hesitant at first but after several times asking from her and an okay from her mom he agreed. She was
and eager student and quick learner. As the years went on things got more and more stressful as her
issues with her father got worse. Other things happened as well such as her nanny dying in an accident.
Most of her friends moving and a handful of other smaller things. It all culminated in one two year span
of issues.
The first and foremost is that when she hit high school she immediately fell into the wrong crowd and
falling into doing drugs. By this point the bodyguard had stopped teaching her as he had nothing else
left to teach. Over two years things spiraled down into a confrontation with her father about it when she
was sixteen. He'd caught her while she was high in one of the hallways in their house in front of a large
china shelf. They got into a huge argument that ended when she tried to throw a punch. Her dad easily
caught it due to her condition and she tried to pull herself free. When he finally let her go she had just
tried to pull away, wasn't expecting it, and stumbled back into the shelf bringing it down on them.
Neither was injured and she dropped her habits nest day.
Many good things came of these events however. She was able to meet her nannies daughter and the
two very quickly became friends and recently girlfriends though they are currently having issues. She
was also given an opportunity and she was seen by an MMA coach after a fight with a couple guys
allowing her the chance to fight in a controlled environment rather than on the street. Her mom also got
her a couple small roles in acting.
Also her times at the Summer house where always the bright points of the year though her two most
difficult years she didn't go as her family felt it was for the best.
