coming from a very well off family, milo is very much deeply rooted into high society for the most part. he has connections, and he knows how to use them. he also has two younger sisters (twins) who like to really rile him up and annoy him. his whole life though, he’d been expected to do things a certain way, keeping his presence among people a certain way, and never let his father down, as he was a successful businessman with a reputation to uphold, something that often taunted over milo as he knew he needed to work just as hard to stay on his father’s good side. with all of that in mind, milo is very much a player of the game type of person, as he was raised with such intrinsic values. milo wants to be successful, but not in the same way his father is, and despite the cold and harsh reality of how he grew up, milo has taken it upon himself to build up the personable skills to maintain a very mature presence. using this to his advantage, milo also has the connections in which he’s wanted to become a lawyer, and ultimately get into politics one day. he’s determined, can play the system, and manage to benefit by false promises, something he’s very good at.
growing up in london, delphine was raised by an older couple, where she very much became interested in older concepts, like history, art, and english literature at a very young age. her mind was something that her parents were very proud of her for, as she was very advanced for her age, something that she was constantly reminded of as she continued to get older. the thing about having older parents, was when she entered high school, both of her parents’ health was on the decline, and her dad was more frequently ill than not. it took a toll on delphine during high school, and while she was bright enough to stay afloat during her years there, she became more of a social recluse, opting to stay home with her parents and focusing on them and her studies. she graduated still at the top of her class, but did not get accepted into the school she wanted, making the more closer school the most obvious answer to stay near her parents. delphine often took care of her parents during college, and without warning her father passed away the summer after she graduated and had gotten accepted into a phd program in the united states, following his passion for english literature. it was in his memory that she found herself taking in classic literature, and eventually went on to become a professor on the subject, delving deep into the books for inspiration and to be closer to her dad.
a true conspiracy theorist at heart, nolan loves all things sci-fi related, and also enjoys a good mystery. he is also a twin, and his sister is his best friend, someone that he confides to about anything and everything, especially as he became more involved in a specific government conspiracy that led to the uncovering of human experimentation on genetics to unlocking mutations to gain abilities. as a young teenager, he wasn’t sure what he was expecting, but to find out that both his dad and sister have the same genes that were unlocked during this, nolan can’t help but be a little jealous that he’s nothing but normal, when all he wanted was to grow up and be part of the story. despite that, he was raised to find all the facts he could, and even though he loses confidence sometimes, he’s really quite brave as he continues to look for more information on mutants in his town.
