His every move seems almost as if it were thought of beforehand as a result of his high co-ordination, trained through time spent on his interests. Liam possesses a pointed nose and a small chin. His eyes are blue, a very light sky-blue, almost looking grey. Liam's skin is incredibly soft, especially considering the usual wear and tear from his hobbies. Liam, naturally brown haired, dyes his hair a light blonde to match with the ghost-like paleness of his skin, giving him a hauntingly bright look that only serves to highlight his graceful movements and attractiveness. Despite nearing his thirties, Liam still appears as if he was in his early twenties. Liam achieves this through heavy washing and light make-up. Liam almost always wears suits, often of gaudy colors and obsolete styles. Despite this, Liam manages to look good in almost anything he wears. He often smells of lilac.[/indent] [hr] ♚[color=black][i]Personality:[/i][/color] [indent]Among his colleagues, Liam is known for one thing: being stubborn, this stubbornness is what led him to leave the Belladonna, and it is also what lead him to leadership, as his unyielding pursuit of power appealed to many of the Royals' younger members, and of course the fact that he is highly thought to have killed the last leader. Liam is ruthless, cruel, and determined, meaning that if something doesn't go his way, he will ensure it does through any means necessary. He is also heavily paranoid, and as such is wary of all of the other assassin groups; it is as a result of this that the Royals are among the least understanding about intrusions into their domain. Liam has a special dislike of the Black Cats and Avia, the former due to a personal vendetta, and the latter mostly due to a perceived hypocrisy in their methods.[/indent] [hr] ♚[color=black][i]Background:[/i][/color] [indent]Liam was born in the park district, or at least he thinks so. Liam was already in a group home by the age of four years old, growing up amongst the other orphaned children and spending his time by sitting around and playing with toys. He was adopted on his seventh birthday by a wealthy business tycoon who provided him with a stable home life and a happy childhood, spent playing baseball or reading novels. His father later met a bartender who he married after dating for three weeks. This woman was heavily abusive to Liam, both physically and verbally. Despite his connection with his father, Liam was unable to bring himself to speak out due to fear. One day when Liam was thirteen, his foster parents went to the business sector of the city, where his father worked, on what was supposed to be a usual trip. They never returned. Once again orphaned, Liam quickly turned to crime to support himself. It was during this time that he discovered the existence of the Belladonna. Liam attempted to join, and was successful, taking the code-name Magnolia. Serving as a Belladonna assassin for two years. His second year was not his best. During a normal assassination, Liam was caught and "Magnolia" became a wanted man. When the Belladonna refused to aid him, Liam angrily stole as much as he could and fled the district. With what he could scrounge, he managed to raise enough money to lose the heat, but now he was alone, back to square one, penniless and homeless. The Royals, however, were more than willing to receive a former Belladonna assassin, and Liam joined their ranks without a second thought. Despite the distrust of his elders, Liam established himself as a highly competent assassin, earning a large amount of money due to the high charge of Royal contracts. Eventually, the white king died, and at this point, Liam was known as the black queen, and thus the first choice to succeed to leadership.[/indent] [hr] ♚[color=black][i]Leisure activities:[/i][/color] [indent][i]Liam is a prolific fencer and is the owner of the "Match City Boutique", formerly a Royals front which Liam has turned into a legitimate business.[/i][/indent] [hr] ♚[color=black][i]Extra:[/i][/color] [indent][i]-Liam's Royals are focused on holding their territory and conquering the others. -Liam still does hits personally, and his favorite method is either a silenced pistol headshot, or a slash to the carotid artery with a knife.[/i][/indent][/hider]
