#eoh!spike

The Goth Punks live together in an abandoned warehouse that’s been modified for survival use. This, of course, excludes Spike and Pierre who ran away upon immediate revival.

Their utilities are powered by Cassandra’s magic, not any outside interference like the government considering no one owns, nor tries to own the warehouse because of “dangers”. Cassandra is in charge of the basic utilities, but Damien powers any biotech and magic experiments he does. That also includes his transformation devices given to the four living outside the house.

Damien and Cassandra even live at opposite sides of the house due to easy conflict between each other. Cyril and Shinobi act as mediators but ultimately side with the redhead. They mostly keep Damien for her smarts and because they feel they could “tame” her with promises of his “obsession”. Darcy keeps to himself and only follows Cassandra, like during hits or to settle disputes he tries to stay out of.

Spike and Pierre ran away and moved in together immediately to protect each other from the Goth Punks. They’re the only ones who thought Cassandra would quickly betray anyone who doesn’t follow her. Over time, they relaxed on that thought and got back in contact with Cyril, soothing their worries but still not going back to join the group. They still feel like they can only trust themselves as orphans who relied on each other from the beginning.

You wouldn’t catch them dead saying this, but Shinobi teases Darcy because of their crush on him. They like how rude the man is, weirdly enough. Cyril does find him cute, but thinks Shinobi deserves better. She even admits this to both them and Cassandra.

Cassandra

“You Terrains have intrigued me so much that I have an offer to make. Let’s start an alliance. I can give you all the info and technology we have left and can scrounge up, and you get us acquainted with Terrain society and these three back into it.”

Cass was a bit of a stickler for rules. She grew up with the Penilian ideals ingrained. ‘Trust no one but yourself and your family.’ These ideal get twisted in her mind and her family becomes the goth punks and she gets disillusioned of Penilian society anyways.

Penilian society describes themselves as a family -a giant one- but thats bc it functions mostly like a beehive; royalty are the main ones to birth children. The “worker penilian” may adopt the larva and help raise them. There are schools centered on specific topics for the commoner larva to choose but royalty choose for their larva.

Cass grew up as the child of a duke, so closely linked to royalty. She was taught and mastered fighting and the use of magic, which is why she always carries a demonic grimoire. They also prepared her to be a good leader, which she used those skills for the goth punks and gathering them (manipulation was apart of it).

She was sent to Earth, with a few others, and monitored with a device as an example for others of Terrain society and any weakness of it to take it over. Her failure was aired live and she ended up banned from Penilian after Damien’s failure and her showing protectiveness over her gang.

Alucard

Alucard grew up in a big household with his parents, siblings, aunt and uncle, cousins, and grandparents. It was pretty crowded so not many people would notice if a child or two was missing home for a while.

He, an older sister, and his cousin Osmose were experimented on in a secret room in their basement. That sister died to an “illness” and he and Osmose never got along well.

He also never got along well with Cyclops and Hanzou bc he sees bits of himself in them.

While Alucard hung out with Cass bc she understood him, his main reason was his own thoughts of revenge against his family. He never does act out any revenge, he’s a sheep in wolf’s clothing.

He was a bit bitter if the idea of an alliance but follows Cass either way.

Joins College at the same time as Otis, but not majoring in anything yet.

Cyclops

Cyclops grew up neglected. He family keeps to themselves and only gave their children the basics to life. He’s the youngest in the family and was always the butt of a joke.

His family life didnt stop him from being nice in other places but bullies quickly smothered that idea, making him wish to scare them off and everyone who picked on him. His last straw was losing his eye to one of his bullies and his parents did nothing about it.

He stuck with Cass bc he knew just hanging out with her would scare people off and she was nice to him too.

During the Heroes of Pico’s School, he wasn’t actually at North Korea, he was a shut in at home. He was hiding for a long while at home until Cass called him over to help with the convict situation.

Now, Cyclops ends up with the long end of the stick in the future. He doesnt work on the violence side of the group anymore but he becomes the designer/maker of everyone’s vigilante outfits. Cass and Damien had some say in some say in designs of some outfits but they were at least polished up by him.

He also designed the logo, came up with the name and goes back to his name, Cyril. He also talks to Spike and Pierre every now and then after meeting them again when they were 19.

Majoring in Fashion Design

Hanzou

They a middle child close in age to the eldest. Most of their parents attention was on their older brother who was the smartest and and their younger sister who was a spoiled golden child. They was always in the background and craved affection from others.

In middle school, they found out they were mixed japanese, which lead to their obsession with the culture. Hanzou was shunned for their loud and “obnoxious” behavior but they found a place of comfort with the goth punks.

They’re just generally excitable, and wishes no harm on others, but when Cass asks for their help in the shooting, they didnt want to disappoint the few people who was close to them.

After being revived by Damien and experimented on as a result, their brain flipped a switched and not only did they stay unwaveringly loyal to Cass, but became a bit more violent. Theyre the opposite of Alucard and Cyclops in terms of violence; they dont crave it necessarily, but is very willing to carry it out.

Their personality is generally the same since childhood ignoring their capabilities of violence.

Damien

“You want me to be your engineer? And that’s not even the funny part… you’re trying to bribe me with my worst fucking enemy, hah. Y’know what, fine. I got nothing else to do on this shithole of a planet. Maybe i can find a way to take over it myself with this.”

Damien is an arrogant guy that fully believes in only himself. He was raised by a commoner penilian, aka a worker, and hasnt gotten the ideals ingrained in him. His guardian neglected him and made him raise himself. He snuck around into classes that interested him and is a quick learner, catching the attention of royalty and leading to him being educated deeply in bioengineering and magic. His genius was the reason we was sent to Earth but his lose was the result of his lone wolf personality and overconfidence in his fighting ability. He was taught a more supportive role but he was never that way, always trying to the initiative.

He has a loose understanding and ability to use manipulation but its a bit basic compared to Cass’. He could mostly gather people who would only use each other but couldnt fabricate a close bond like Cass had at first.

When Otis defeats him, he gains a major obsession over their strength and ability to defeat him thats somewhat overshadowed by his promise of vengeance; also a bit mixed together.

When he does become the engineer for the group, he actually takes a more supportive role to “observe” and also wait for Otis to join.

Double majoring in Bioengineering and Theory of Magic (magic is ingrained in terrain society)

Despite their many issues and absences, they were all able to complete school around the same time as the ng trio.
