Also, I never actually read The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde before I made Gideon/Gyles. Knew the basic premise, decided to just make my own lore and such, but after finishing it, I realized my lore is actually so perfectly in line with what actually happened in the book,,,damn Gideon/Gyles really is fandom oc

Being told youβre days areΒ numberedΒ is never a pleasant thing to hear. Itβs evenΒ worseΒ when itβs not because of something dangerous but because your insides haveΒ turned against you.
Dr. Gideon Irving, a genetic engineer was just trying to live his life, to keep his head down and hustle to make something of himself, and yetβ¦his own DNA is what takes him out. The doctorβs bad report doesnβt initially hit him until the following week when he breaks down in the lab he works at.
Time is suddenly moreΒ preciousΒ and while he doesnβt believe he will be the one to find aΒ cureΒ to cancerβ¦he could perhaps provide something else. A way to lengthen the time more than theΒ monthsΒ he was told he had.
Gene splicingΒ is nothing new, taking DNA apart and putting it back together was what he did for a living after all. It took weeks of working late and the remainder of his energy but he wasΒ determinedΒ to finish this before theΒ diseaseΒ took him. The good doctor became soΒ obsessedΒ with preserving his own life, that he completelyΒ skippedΒ the trial period. The finished concoctionΒ was tested on cancerous cells in a test tube, butΒ neverΒ aΒ living, breathingΒ subject.
Instead, withΒ shaky handsΒ andΒ bated breath, GideonΒ stabbedΒ the syringe into his thigh. If it didnβt help, he still had some time to keep trying. If itΒ killedΒ himβ¦well, that was alreadyΒ inevitable, at least he would have gone out onΒ his terms.Β
But itΒ worked...in a way.
MuscleΒ bulked, sinewΒ stretchedΒ over his form. Gideon lay seizing up and wheezing for air on theΒ floor of the laboratory, no one to hear his pitiful gasps forΒ help.
What eventually arose from the ground wasn't entirely Gideon anymore.
Gideonβs alter ego,Β GylesΒ is still something of a mystery to Gideon. He knows heβs aΒ partΒ of him; they share memories, preferences, likes and dislikesβ but in Gyles' body, nothingΒ ever feels quite right.
Plus they hadΒ twoΒ trains of thought, one panicked voice in the dark calling out to another,Β deeper, more raw one.
Gyles is unsure of his purpose and what to do with his new existence but as Gyles sees it,Β he did save Gideonβs life. GideonΒ owesΒ him.Β
Hometown: Birmingham, England
Birth Date: June 16, 1985
Orientation: Bisexual
Height: 6'5" (Gyles is 7'3")
friendly reminder that due to the animal DNA in the concoction, Gideon injected himself with in order to save his own life, Gyles has many animalistic traits related to those species, most notably the fact that he chuffs like a tiger when he's content :3

Gideon really had no clue if his concoction would work and a lot of hisΒ βresearchβ into a cure for himself was done in a mostly blind way. Despite knowing proper lab procedure and the need for tests to be done to ensure both the safety and effectiveness of any compound that is created in the lab, by the time he came up with the mixture, his time was nearly up, and in his desperation, Gideon was willing to risk any side effect the mixture came with just as long as it kept him alive.
The significance of this is that Gideon is in no way a reckless person. He never was and even upon finding out his diagnosis and that he only had a few months to live without treatment (and treatment that would not guarantee he would survive). It says a lot that instead of taking the news in a rational sense, getting affairs in order, or taking a chance on treatment, he immediately reverted to panic and rebellion against everything he believed in. Gideon believes in science and reason, and yet is reduced to a disheveled scientist stealing from his place of work, working late to create a cure for a cancer that so many other people have been attempting to cure for years.
Gyles and Gideon both will be the first to tell you that theyβre not alike but the gist of all this is that...they are. Gyles is not something evil created from this mold of human and animal DNA. Gyles is not just the parasite that takes over Gideonβs body in the night; heβs a manifestation of those repressed thoughts and feelings Gideon has always had. Parts of himself he attempted to hide or lock away because he felt ashamed of them or felt that had no place in his life.
Gyles is more a part of Gideon than he even realizes.Β
Gideon is a lot more fit than one might expect. Watching Gideon walk down the street, one might assume heβs just this great, big, lumbering sort of man. He almost always appears slightly hunched over, as if trying to minimize the amount of space he takes up, and is prone to dragging his feet, sometimes causing him to trip a bit over his own feet. However, mostly as a means to clear his head, Gideon does have a workout regime he tries to keep to and also does some yoga and meditation. Heβs been doing it for years as a method to curb his anxiety and while he did take a long break after the life-threatening diagnosis that ended with him working late for months until he created Gyles, he did start it up after Gyles introduction into his life. It helps him relax and stretch out his muscles when he wakes up with them bruised from his counterpart's nightly activities. Heβs incredibly limber and strong despite looking rather fatigued during the daylight hours.
Gyles, in a way, does work himself out as well but itβs purely for show. He likes testing this new body of his and the limitations of Gideonβs concoctionβ as a nearly seven-foot-tall, genetically modified man, heβs become aware that he can topple over cars and one swift kick can knock down a lamppost. That being said, once he realizes the destruction he can create, he does it often.
Gideon never told anyone about his condition, even when he stayed late at work to secretly work on his project. Not his parents, not his friends, not his co-workers. He was honestly traumatized by the news to the point where he couldnβt process it well and the concept of self-treating it became his only priority. In truth, if he told anyone and they reacted badly (which, odds are theyβd be at least a little shocked and sad for him), he would have broken down. Gideon isnβt a very emotionally strong sort of man and keeps in a lot of his emotions.
Gyles has a bit of an oral fixation, always biting his nails, sucking teeth, licking his lips, running his tongue over his big teethβ he actually has a lot of small primal habits that are actually a showcase of some of the animal DNA Gideon included in the concoction. He is always slightly hunched over, defensive over his midsection, heβs territorial and possessive over things he deems as his, he smiles mostly to show dominance than mirthβ overall he conducts himself more like a bear than a human.Β
