There's always more to your characters than you'll ever play out. So why not share a few of those facts, figures and back story that you've established?
How to:
1. Comment, with a list of head canon facts on your character. (Arbitrarily set at 10. More or less is fine.)
2. Rinse, repeat?
3. Questions from other muns are of course, welcome.
Raoul Silva | James Bond
1. Born in an English hospital, raised in Portugal (what he considers his country of origin).
2. He's got three sisters, one older and two younger. He was very protective of them, and there may have been some childhood bloodshed whenever any of them got picked on/hurt by any of the neighborhood boys.
3. His biological father was an Englishman (hence 1), same with the older sister, but his other sisters had different fathers. And thaaat's because his mother was married to this guy, but sometime when Tiago was very, very young, they divorced, he swanned off. Had various boyfriends, but none of them really stuck around. So he had primarily women he was raised around all his life, but no father figure to speak of.
4. His mother eventually died as a kid (for the sake of thematic irony, probably somewhere near James' age when he lost his parents). Very mundane. Car accident. That left four kids to get picked up by their grandmother, a wealthy, deeply Catholic woman living it up after her rich husband's death. (Didn't help with his mother's financial woes mostly due to her faith--divorces and sleeping around and kids out of wedlock? Oof.) The 'how do you get rats off an island' story is completely true.
5. He always had an affinity for technology and computers. He didn't know what he was going to do with his life during university (in England), but he'd done some hacking and gotten the attention of MI6.
6. He was present for M's wedding. And regrets not having been able to go to her husband's funeral.
7. Bisexual. Very very bisexual. Nowadays he mostly uses sex for intimidation and control, but back in his agent days, he used it much like James--fun and information. He was careful when he needed to be, but he was always very open about it when he could afford it. There was plenty of awkward experimenting under his grandmother's nose, and not everyone who's known in his life has taken kindly to it.
8. He's never had any pets, or owned any animals of any kind. It's just never been something he's thought about, and if he were to ever have some animal dropped into his life, he...wouldn't know what the fuck to do with it. (That said, can you see him in a shelter and falling for the most pathetic, abused, abandoned dog in the place?)
