Meet SEBASTIAN DERR. They are TWENTY-SIX years old and hail from STOWE, VT. Sebastian embodies the supernova, KEPLAR. They use he/him pronouns. Their faceclaim is MATTHEW DADDARIO.
Keplar reminds me of a strong Black coffee, a clear night sky, catchy indy/pop songs you canāt remember the words to, worn out vans/converse, diesel from that first truck you had that kept breaking down, smell of 2nd hand leather, liquor straight from the bottle, hoodies one size too big, guitar with a missing string, cigarettes, the feeling of an all nighter, and fuckboi vibes
BIOGRAPHY
(TRIGGERS: alcohol, foster care, social worker experiences, mental health diagnosis, addiction, arson, and law enforcement encounters)
āHe fell through the cracks.ā It was one line that stood out to Bast as he read his case file the social worker had left sitting open on his desk as a youth. He was never placed into foster care. He should have been. However, having attractive and highly charismatic addicts for parents meant that the storytelling and explanations for why things werenāt quite right was superb. From a young age he learned that if you were nice, polite, and could lie through your teeth that a lot of doors of opportunities opened.
āLarge and unstable familyā was another comment from the file but that one didnāt rub him the wrong way. It was true. His mother slept around and his list of half siblings made the Brady Bunch look like a joke. He stopped attempting to bond or connect with the youngest of them after he was 17 and left home.
āDiagnosis: Oppositional Defiant Disorderā - He remembered being more offended at being called āoddā when he was going for more of a ābadassā vibe when he was a teenager. He later understood the diagnosis to mean that he didnāt listen to conventional rules and was often stubborn just for the sake of taking control over a situation rather than actually having a problem with what was asked.
His first short stint in Juvenile Detention was right after he left home and was couch surfing with some friends when his girl-at-the-timeās parents accused him of arson when she broke up with him. He was there when the fire lit but he sure as hell didnāt throw a match at it. He convinced himself the girl set him up.
The incidents that led him to his current destination at Polaris were sporadic but eventually he caught onto the fact that he had the unfortunate knack for setting things aflame when he was upset. Sometimes it was as small as his cigarette burned down far too quickly. The worst was when he caused a house fire after his dealer attempted to throw him under the bus for some shady pill trading he had nothing to do with. No one was hurt but the explosion spooked him. He avoided confrontation at all costs after that.
Much to his surprise, the āpoliceā officer who pulled him over for a legit DUI ended up being a Scout who worked for the Ursas. The Scout informed him that he would be coming along and thereād be no choice in the matter and that he knew all of his history with fire setting. And the shocking part was that he did know. From the explosion all the way to how his last cigarette flashed.
INCLINATION
Kepler is a supernova on the brink of implosion. To understand a starās life cycle is to know that a star has the most energy right before it combusts and eventually folds in on itself and turns into a black hole. Keplerās intentions of shaping Sebastianās life are unclear as well as reckless, however, there doesnāt seem to be an overtone of malice. Only a far reaching last ditch effort to prove that this star can accomplish something before it vanishes. Ā
