BIOGRAPHY.

Your family life could be divided into two distinct parts: before and after your mother's death. When your mother was still alive, you lived a blissful existence. Your father was a lawyer and an influential figure in the community, and your mother took care of her three sons. You were the youngest child in your family-- the one who preferred to read or tuck yourself in your mother's side rather than play around with the other kids your age. You were a shy thing, almost too soft for the world you were born in, and though your mother said your heart was your strength, that proved to be difficult to believe as time went on.

Unbeknownst to you at the time, your father was secretly a hunter when not working. He kept the secret from your family, but the secret came to life the day your mother perished. It was a revenge ploy: your father killed a vampire's companion, so they took your mother as a form of punishment. The knowledge that your father's actions caused harm to his family caused him to spiral, and it wasn't long before he abandoned his job and dedicated his time to training his sons to destroy the vampires and other supernatural beings once and for all.

You were never a fighter, not even in your youth. Your hands shook the moment a weapon was placed in them. Your body froze the moment your father pushed you to practice fighting moves with your brothers. You cried the moment a punch was thrown, even when you were just watching from the sidelines. You weren't meant for the life of a slayer, and your brothers saw that all too clearly. They tried their best to keep you out of the business, to tuck you away from your father's zeal, and you were grateful for them. You spent their training sessions reading about medicine instead, longing to be a healer more than someone who harms for a living.

Your brothers' dynamic worked until they went missing on a routine mission. Your father's mental state grew worse at the knowledge that two more family members were gone because of supernatural beings, and he set his sights on you as his last living heir. You had no one to protect you from his fervor, and you were forced into the mold of a hunter despite your reservations. You trained under his guidance for months, longing for the day your brothers would return and relieve you of your duties. They never did, and you were instead forced to take the lives of those considered undead or non-human.

It was ironic how your father deemed you a success and let you go hunting on your own, only for you to crumble at the first sign of violence. You cornered a vampire on the outskirts of Lafleaur and were set to kill it, but something within you held back and stopped your hand. You just watched the vampire and saw a humanness staring back at you, and it was enough to make you falter and drop your weapon. You watched as the beast ran away, and guilt (and a mixture of awe) wrapped itself around you at the knowledge of what you've done.

Now, there's even more of a hesitancy in your step as you trail behind your father and any other hunters you come across. You know you'd be looked at as a traitor if they knew you intentionally failed to kill one of their targets, and that knowledge shakes you every time you look at your father or go on a mission. You still long for the day when you can leave this life of bloodshed and violence behind, but as the days drag on, you begin to wonder if that's even possible anymore. Little hunter, are you the deer or the wolf?

WANTED CONNECTIONS.

THE HAUNTING: The vampire (or other supernatural creatures--- im flexible tbh) that Wren let escape. They have haunted his dreams since that day--- his mind thinking about why he didn't kill them and why they didn't kill him in return. He finds himself longing to see them again, unsure if it's the desire to finish what he failed to do the first time or just to gaze upon their features once more. One could call his feelings a crush that's meant to blossom into more, but he wouldn't dare acknowledge that out loud. After all, he was raised to despise vampires, not long for their hand. (This is definitely designed to be an enemies to lovers, forbidden love connection!)

THE VAMPIRE WHO KILLED HIS MOTHER: This is the one who started his father's descent into hysteria. Wren is said to look just like his mother, so they more than likely would be able to put two and two together upon seeing the new hunter. Whether they brag about their kill or feel bad for taking away someone's mother is UTP.

THE SUSPECT: This is a hunter who doesn't believe that Wren is truly doing his job of hunting the supernaturals. They're suspicious of his claims that his missions are successful (as they should be, because they're definitely not) and are determined to expose him as a liar and see what's holding him back from completing his duties.
