(note: this is a character of color, and a half-sibling to the Tragic Hero)
Life had always been a struggle between appearing strong in the eyes of their peers, and trying not to let the secrets of their relatives overwhelm them. The Martyr was born the discarded child of the Mad Scientist, half-sibling to the Tragic Hero, and always had been bound to end up in a bad place. But the difference between them and their sibling was that despite the secrecy of their birth, the Martyr was praised for their power. It had been long since someone within the Lestrade organization had been born with one of the three powers. The Martyr is a Watcher, able to talk with the dead. They’re invaluable to the organization, but at the same time, without their knowledge, they are manipulated by all parties within. Even more so, given that the disappearance has put everyone on edge, and the Martyr might be the only one who can say for sure whether the heir to the Servine family is dead or still alive.
The Jester - They’ve always thought of the Jester as a friend, and will continue to do so, because they just see the other as a result of the nature of the organization, and thus everything they do will always be in service to the organization. They don’t like to join them on missions, but neither do they know how to properly refuse, so they join. The violence and the backstabbing feels wrong, all of it feels wrong, but even so, they follow. They do what the Jester asks, and in return the Jester talks with them, participates in friendly conversation and banter, makes the Martyr feel right at home. It can’t be a bad trade, can it? And as far as they know, the Jester seems to care about people, genuinely care at times, that the Martyr deserves that kind of care as well.
The Mad Scientist - The Martyr does not know about the circumstances of their birth, and is completely unaware of their relation to the Mad Scientist other than they’ve always been the one to teach them about their magick. There is nobody else who can tell them more, old text might hold answers, but they raise questions too, and those questions the Mad Scientist will always find a way of answering. But outside of the lessons, they are cold and distant towards the Martyr. They seem to care for them only as a student, nothing more.
The Tragic Hero - this familial relationship too is unknown to the Martyr and to the Tragic hero too. They’ve never much cared for the other, who has gotten themselves into trouble as if second nature, but they’ve always wondered for the truth behind the murder. They wonder whether or not they believe that the other has truly been responsible for almost starting another war. Still, the Martyr treats them as others do, with little respect and a lot of distrust.
