Shaun Gallagher
we all started somewhere
Birth name: Shaun Orin Gallagher
Alias: Shaun Gallagher, but his friends call him "Sammy", or at least they use to.
Gender: Male
Age: 25
Birthday: April 5th, 1986
only skin deep
Play by: Benjamin James
Appearance: Tattoo on his chest right bellow the neck slightly to the right side:
Obtained at 17 after "Sacrificing himself to the 'Black Death' The tattoo represents not only a coming of age and a sense of responsibility within the group, but it also symbolizes the loss of one's soul, the cursed mark of the forever damned.
Shaun stands at 5ft 11' and he typically wheres dark but stylish clothing. The clothing itself would qualify as semi-formal with black and white dress shirts, collared shirts, sports coat etc. Dark slacks and dress pants are common as well as beige.
He also wears a metal cross with a surprisingly sharp end, and a red gem in the middle around his neck, cliche, he knows, but one should never forget one's roots, and it is a reminder of the great things that are to come.
on the inside that counts
Personality: Shaun is a sociopath plain and simple. For those who do not know much about the traits this entails I will go on further. Shaun is a very intelligent and outwardly a very likeable young man. He is Charming and charismatic(includes turning on and off his Irish accent), and he uses these tools in order to manipulate others to do what he wants. He has a grandiose sense of self believing that he, in fact, is invincible and he is capable of 'taking care of' anyone he chooses. He tends to exploit the work of others, rather then do any real work himself, though he has often proved to be quite capable. He has no feeling for others, and no remorse for his actions. He could and has destroyed peoples lives on a whim, with little to no benefit to himself. He tends to seek out conflict as if he is craving it, however it is rare that he has to live up to the consequences of his actions due to his intellect and general cleverness.
He has taken care of his sister for the last 6 years and in that time he has developed as much of a relationship with her as he is capable of. 'Caring' for her would be a strong word as the true concept of caring is beyond Shaun, but he will go out of his way to protect her, granted that it isn't too inconvenient for him. His reactions range between vast indifference, to caring and compassionate, and sometimes he spirals into rage around her for no apparent reason or cause that lies within her control. As a result the relationship can be characterized as abusive, and simultaneously addictive for both people involved.
To top it all off Shaun revels in both giving and receiving pain. Often pain is the strongest thing he can 'feel' and thus he revels in it, and he finds joy in inflicting and controlling others with pain as well.

some of us are... different
FOR MUTANTS, Leave blank if you are human.
Power(s): Genetic Manipulation creation and destruction. Manipulation can for the most part only be done with his own genes and very minimally to others this allows him to adapt to situations properly ala 'darwin' as well as heal himself but only with concious effort. Creation only allows him to do one thing, which is create one copy of himself, which retains and shares memories, when one is dead the other one becomes prime. Destruction allows him to tear apart people on a genetic level. This is fairly ineffective from a distance and become much more powerful when Shaun can touch the person, essentially putting their cellar structure at his mercy to destroy...slowly.
Weakness(s): What Weaknesses he is invincible!
besides that weakness he also can occasionally have a lack of focus and bouts of impulsivity. He cares more about himself and his pleasures then anything so he often will become addicted to either giving or receiving pain and become detracted from his goal, or he may become bored and just walk away. Personality problems abound, plus he may lose control of his manipulation from time to time causing gruesome effects
Other skills: I wouldn't mess with him XDother
Allegiance: Brotherhood
