IN CHARACTER

Name: Blake Castillo

Age: 34

Occupation: Member of Primordial MC and a Mechanic at Thane Auto

Time in Olympus: 26 years.

A little summary:  Now, here is the hard part... lmao.

Trigger warnings: mentions of violence, mentions of drugs and alcohol, addiction, parental abandonment (my poor child), death of a parent, and vague mentions of gang activity.

Blake was born in New Orleans, Louisiana to a pair of high school sweethearts but her father relocated back to Olympus after Blake’s mother abandoned him and their three children (Blake and her two younger brothers) for drugs.  Blake was around eight years old when she moved to Olympus and did her best to blend in which was hard to in a town where everyone knew everyone.  It was safe to say, she stuck out like a sore thumb even though her parents were native to Olympus.

Unfortunately, Blake’s father struggled with new found single fatherhood and could never find a balance between work and family but when Blake was old enough, she picked up his slack in terms of his family life because she understood that he was doing what was necessary to make ends meet even if it meant being involved with the MC.  While Blake’s father worked, she made sure her siblings were taken care of in every sense of the word: fed, bathed, and well dressed.  As a result of taking care of her siblings literally until they graduated from high school, Blake is very maternal and has an incessant need to take care of people that she loves.  It can be rather annoying especially since she doesn’t have children of her own... but she loves being Auntie B.

In high school, Blake saw her father struggle with addiction and had spent one too many nights caring for her father after he’d find himself at the bottom of a bottle of whiskey.  Blake never thought too much of it and did what she could to get him to bed and disregarded the drunken tales he’d tell of men getting their fingers or tongues cut off.  There were many nights she’d find her dad in a pile of his own vomit and found herself caring for him just as she did her siblings which was frustrating for Blake because she felt like the parent in most occasions as her father still struggled with prioritizing his family.

To help her father, Blake took on a job at her high school as a tutor as a way to make a little extra income.  It was comforting for Blake to know that she was able to save up her own money, even if it was only twenty dollars here and there.  Though, she never really got to save up a whole lot as she would have to buy milk, other groceries, or other necessities for her or her brothers.  She would often find herself giving herself the short end of the stick to make sure her brother’s needs were met as they were younger and didn’t understand why they didn’t have the other stuff kids in town had.  Blake often made sacrifices for her siblings even if it meant sacrificing herself.

In her free time, Blake could always be found spending it at the shop as she had taken an interest in mechanics opposed to cosmetology or nursing as other girls her age had wanted to pursue.  Initially, her father was apprehensive about her spending time at the shop because he feared that she would become involved in the MC somehow and he was never able to bring those fears forward.  However, his obvious disproval of her involvement at the shop, only fuelled Blake’s want to participate more which her father should have anticipated.

After graduation, Blake had been offered an apprenticeship at Thane Auto and she took it happily and the rest is practically history, lmao.  After her apprenticeship, she was offered a full-time position at the shop as she had proven herself useful and it wasn’t long after that she had become a prospective member of the club.  In terms of her involvement in the MC, Blake had exceeded expectations in almost all of her tasks as she had always gone above and beyond to ensure the job was done though she hated being on someone’s beck and call.  Her father damn near killed someone the day that she became a fully patched member of the MC after her twenty-second birthday.  However, it wasn’t many years later that Grayson had retired from the MC entirely, anyway.

After a few years, Blake is thriving as a member of the MC and all seems to be going well until her father was murdered in the midst of the war in town.  It took everything in Blake for her to not kill the president of the opposing club herself, but she knew she needed to be strategic.  The grief of losing her father damn near killed her.  She struggled with the reality of it for awhile and constantly blames herself (as she does for most things, anyway.)

MISCELLANEOUS FACTS

Blake is literally the worst type of person sometimes because she is either a cold ass bitch or loves you with her whole heart.  It literally depends on who you are.

She’s introverted AF and literally hates spending time with people unless she actually cares about you.  People are so draining and she truly prefers to spend time with her dog, Zeus, that she took in after her father died.

Blake is literally my fave character that I’ve played and I am so excited to give you guys the new and improved Blake. :~)  I have tons of headcanons and other random info in her stats page and I am hyped.

WANTED CONNECTIONS

friends, obviously – blake struggles when it comes to making friends, but when she does, she holds them very close to her heart and usually considers them like her own family.

HER BROTHERS !!!!  i would literally die for the castillo siblings.

any type of romantic relationship – friends w benefits, exes, one night stands, crushes, flings, etc.
