Synopsis

Liam del Morte is the Chief Executive Officer of Camp Eclipse.

He is a strangely hopeful and confident man despite all the pain life has given him. A tireless optimist and kind heart, Liam relies on looking on the bright side of things. He has come into his sense of wisdom and responsibility.

Liam is the second son of the late Wolfram and Tori del Morte, younger brother to Salsolan Silas del Morte in the once non-Luperci branch of their family. As an ex-member of the fallen New Caledonia, Liam was once a High Lord of Caledonian nobility. His skills as a merchant, mounted warrior and brewmaster were what he was most recognized there. He made many friends and found family among the pack, but now that it's gone, he has founded Camp Eclipse with others. He lives there with his son Sphinx del Morte and his mate Kule Pana.

Once a non-Luperci turned Luperci Verto, Liam has evolved into an expert merchant, passionate fighter and avid partygoer. Though he has found much of what he was looking for in Nova Scotia, his brother and new family among them, this strange new land is more than he bargained for. Though the story continues to advance it's a crooked rhyme left unfinished thus far. It's only beginning, and Liam now has more of his people counting on him than ever before to see their hopes through to the end. (See OOC Assumptions)

Liam does not remember the tragedy consciously, but distant relatives in the del Morte Luperci Ortus branch told him of what happened. Terrible murderers slaughtered his parents in front of Liam as a pup. In spite of how their attackers cast Liam into a fire in the process, he survived... just with scars aplenty marred across his legs and arms.

His family also mentioned his missing older brother, Silas del Morte. He disappeared before Liam was born. The trauma stirs in his subconscious and festers into symbolic and visceral hallucinations to this day.

He itched to find and know his older brother, his only surviving direct relative. He felt a need to fill the survivor's guilt hole in his heart. With a few members of his family from Portland in tow, they travelled Nova Scotia's trade routes. He originally resolved to come with them temporarily to see more of the world and maybe find more clues about his missing older brother.

Instead he met Kule Pana and joined New Caledonia. Before its fall, Liam climbed the ranks until he became a High Lord of the noble Court of Dawn. He earned the Brewmaster, Dragoon and Merchant co-ranks before its tragic fall. In order to protect his children and the children of other Caledonians from further horrors of war and conflict, Liam left before that winter could grow to deadlier heights than the last winter.

It was in the Miramichi Watershed that Liam and other former Caledonians formed a loner band called Camp Eclipse. They subsequently chose him as their leader.

1.  Characteristics

1.1  Appearance

General Physical Appearance

The del Morte family is most usually taller and more lean or muscular. Liam is no exception to this. He is quite tall from his family's genetics and is muscular as well. This is from transporting goods for trading, working sometimes as a longshoreman and also from archery. Archery has caused his arms to be especially muscled.

He prefers his Optime form over his Lupus form. In it, he has brown hair styled into a mohawk that he keeps cut shorter. He avoids growing it out, as he prefers his hair to be out of the way during trading and other activities, but long enough to have an alluring look to add to his charisma for selling. During the siege, it had grown out somewhat however. It has begun to curl at the ends. He may or may not stick with this new length.

He wraps each of his limbs in white bandages and had pierced his ears to hold gold earrings. However, half of his left ear was torn off by a mercenary during a war for New Caledonia, so he can only wear earrings in his right ear now.

He has two sets of scars, one set over his heart and one along his arms. These are both a result of the attack when he was a pup, having them last this long. Most recently, he has a horizontal scar laying across the bridge of his muzzle and a somewhat circular and jagged scar on his thigh from the war.

His unique mixture of earthy colors helps him to pop out among any crowd. His fur is predominantly coffee brown, with the tip of his tail and his underbelly being grayer.

1.2  Personality

Summary: Optimistic, determined, charismatic, brave, friendly, loyal, warm, wise, obsessive, opinionated, workaholic

Summary: Life is a glass half full, if you ask Liam, and there are plenty of opportunities to work to overflow that cup. He is optimistic, and tends to be less swayed by pessimism and nihilism. While he does not always assume the best in others, and can be paranoid about unknown intentions, he is realistic about expectations, and has the will and determination to improve the outcome of most situations.

He is extremely charismatic, often using a silver tongue to haggle or persuade others. He does not keep to corners and is not softly spoken. He is quite brave and amiable, and is unafraid to put himself out there to meet others as an extrovert. He shares much empathy for those around him, and this often is most focused on those that are down on their luck... Or also grieving for someone missing from their life. He is focused when he trades, but is not cruel with his career, and is resolutely loyal to those he loves. He has quite the moral compass (for now), and rarely approves of underhanded actions and intentions that hurt others. His heart hurts too much when he sees others suffering, and greatly dislikes being the cause for that.

Liam is relaxed and laidback. He was energetic when he was a pup, but through the years he has been alive, he has mellowed out. He takes it easy when he can, avoids neglecting himself, and values his free time. Despite being an extrovert that is the life of the party, he likes to decompress eventually, and can be seen meditating among quieter spaces.

Incentives
  • Motivations: Keep the peace, protect Camp Eclipse, forge allyships & trade relations, live deliciously
  • Fears: Abandonment, fire & war
  • Likes: Working hard & playing hard
  • Dislikes: Cruelty, senseless violence, dishonesty
Biases
  • Packs: Thinks Salsola is not worthy of Trust and that only some of its number are worthy of Respect. Believes Salsolan leadership to be cruel and greedy. Respects Del Cenere Gang in most ways, but frowns upon their anti-wolf bias greatly. Trusts and Respects Casa di Cavalieri.
  • Color: Golden eyes stand out to him as special thanks to his family's beliefs (ex. Silas del Morte). Is suspicious of and treads lightly around wolfdogs with heterochromia and silvery pelts.
  • Age: Extremely protective of the young and the vulnerable.
  • Scent: Is suspicious of any and all that smell unnaturally clean or unusually herbal in scent (signs of a disguised/dishonest origin).
  • Ideology: Vehemently condemns any that condone servitude, slavery, religious zealotry, monarchy or war. Vocal about freedom, democracy and sovereignty.
Archetyping
  • Demeanor: Kind-hearted, affable, charismatic, confident, persuasive.
  • Outlook: Optimistic.
  • Alignment: Neutral Good.
Sexuality & Gender
  • Sexuality: Bisexual with no preference.
  • Gender: Has a good understanding of and experience with non-binary and transgender luperci.
Spirituality and Substances
  • Spirituality: Follows the Eclipsian pantheon. As a Sunweaver, he is a devotee of Valleui. Whilst paranoia may take root during high stress, his faith and his friends & family stabilize him into feeling more Trusting of others again.
  • Substances: Adores any and all of them, especially high-proof booze and lots of marijuana.
