#shadowhunter original

| Gabriel Thiebaut | 18 | lycanthrope | Paris |

“Marriage is an institution,” Gabe recited, the formality in the words mocking. Theo looked up from his glass, the ache in his eyes heavy; he pressed himself to smile. “And?” He said, knowing full well the comment was only half finished. “I think I’ve seen my fair share of those.” Gabe jibed, a flash of cynicism in his voice, as he flipped the towel across his shoulder; he leaned forward, resting his arms on the bar top. “As for you,” he continued, pulling the nearly empty glass away from Theo and raising an eyebrow. “I think you’ve had your fair share of that. Hard liquor and Shadowhunting. Not a good combination, by my reckoning.” 

Shadowhunter families

The Ironcrests

Anthony Ironcrest [age: 18 / hair: black / eyes: grey/green] The eldest of the Ironcrest children, Anthony (pronounced with the ‘th’ sound, not the hard ‘t’) is tall and well-built but questionably graceful and light on his feet, much to his twin sister’s frustration. He’s an old romantic who appreciates traditional values and has a love of the arts but is equally gifted in the more artisan crafts. His weapon of choice is the Persian shamshir. 

Aileen Ironcrest [age: 18 / hair: black (dyed red) / eyes: hazel] The twin sister of Anthony and younger by 6 and a half minutes, Aileen is the counterpart to her brother’s outgoing nature; she is often cold and distrusting of strangers and is overwhelmingly protective of her family. She is very focused on her training and Clave duties and specialises in both the longbow and the tabarzin.

Jaime Ironcrest [age: 15 / hair: brown / eyes: green] Born Jonathan Ironcrest, Jaime came out as gender non-conforming at the age of 12 to her older sister. Living in a society where she would be looked down on for who she is, Jaime keeps her true self a secret from her parents and the Nephilim as a whole. She is an enthusiastic keeper of animals and has a pet scorpion. She is currently following in her brother’s footsteps and training in the use of the shamshir.

Thomas Fenland [age: 18 / hair: dark brown / eyes: blue] Thomas is a natural born athlete whose sporting prowess compliments his combat style; he is exceptionally strong for his age and deadly quick.

 Lyall Fenland [age: 16 / hair: blonde / eyes: silver grey] The second half of a lethal parabatai duo with his brother Thomas, Lyall Fenland is a promising young Shadowhunter as well as an incredibly intelligent young mind.

Augustus ‘Gus’ Fenland [age: 18 / hair: grey blonde / eyes: sapphire blue] Born to the Heavenblood family but later orphaned and adopted by the Fenlands, Gus has Downworlder blood from his faerie father. He is an introvert who exerts strange behavioural patterns, similar to mundane Asperger’s Syndrome. His faerie ancestry imbues him with lightning reflexes and mild telepathy. 

The Whiteharts

Daniel Whitehart [age: 17 / hair: black / eyes: hazel/gold] Spirited, artistic and utterly selfless, Daniel Whitehart is a credit to his brother.
