This is Michael! He’s Flynn’s cousin who lives in the east end of Detrix.

This is actually my first time drawing Michael and I think he came out looking pretty cool. Michael is actually diabetic and has a service animal called Marigold - named after his one and only true love: money.

When Michael was younger his parents went into a lot of debt with som shady people, and being an older brother he was very used to having to act like everything was fine for his little sister Casey, this led to him discovering he had an incredible poker face. He would spend day in day out at one of the casinos: counting cards and robbing people double his age of their life savings, as far as his parents were concerned, he had some sort of part time job and that’s where he was getting all this money from.

He continued to climb the ranks as he grew older, getting banned from certain casinos and taverns for winning a suspicious amount of times, but had gained enough money to get started on his own little casino, it was small and pretty crammed but it worked, give or take 7 years fly by and he has the most big, successful and busy casino’s in all of Detrix, enough to money to buy and sell someone’s bloodline and happily has the loan sharks his parents here one indebted to on a contact owing him an amount of money that would take generations to repay.
