a lil s'nopsis:  

he is an artist & thus nearly always covered in some kind of art material, more often than not, paint

used to work part time with his mother while attending college to earn a BFA in the literal fine arts

a year into studying he was bitten 

( by a rogue or non-pack unaffiliated lycan, perhaps but who’s to say really, he doesn’t remember the who of it. this is a wanted connection ). 

he very nearly didn’t survived 

( in fact, technically he died for several minutes before defibrillation brought him back to life. )

he’s got some trauma surrounding the subject & likely won’t talk about it.

subsequently to the attack, he quit working as an assistant for his mother & dropped out of college to come to terms with uh being a lycan & what that meant for him

during that time, whilst on a particularly chaotic full moon bender, he had come in contact with another lycan who helped him with his control & also informed him of the History of their kind / their war / the current tentative state of peace.

( this is also a wanted connection ) 

generally thinks that keeping the peace would be the best option for everyone & doesn’t particularly see the point of a war

nor feel as though it is really his place to be involved considering the nature in which he was turned

the above being said he does feel a sense of loyalty to the pack for ‘ taking care of him ’

dislikes being in the lycan form to be completely honest, there’s a sense of internalized fear & uh has a bit of a monster complex about it

currently works odd hours at an art gallery to pay rent & has moved into his studio now to save money

his parents’ have quite prominent accents when they speak english, which they used to do much more when he was a child but generally speak a lazy combination of cantonese & mandarin in the house

as a result he has a mishmash of english / new york accent when he speaks english

lil more history ( feel free to skip this bit, i suppose?? it’ll all be on his blog eventually if it isn’t already )

his grandparents immigrated to London, England during the 1950′s, had a single child in the 60′s ( his mother ) who married his father, a fellow Chinese Englishman who studied law

he only lived in london for about three years so he doesn’t have much memory of that but his grandparents still live there & he used to visit every summer as a child

his parents immigrated to New York City in the late 90′s just in time for the turn of the century

his father opened a small law firm

his mother works as a tailor, as stated above, keung used to assist her  

they were very close until a few years ago ( after he was turned, he kind of became estranged from them for their own safetly & generally only joins sees them once or twice a month despite them all living in the city )

he used to get bullied as a kid in school for uhm ?? everything. ya know, the early 2000′s? when racism & the word ‘gay’ was tossed around a lot without much thought or consequence

his parents are rather liberal though & were supportive when he eventually came out to them ( there was a learning curve involved but, generally supportive ) before going to college

the only thing they ever had a big disagreement on was that he chose to go to school for an unstable career in art instead of joining his father at the law firm 

mostly this was an issue with his father being Openly disappointed any time the subject was broached

this also manifested as a lack of interest in his art which still upsets keung

his dropping out of school has disappointed them further & put more of a strain on their relationship

considers going back to college but the near death experience has made him rather restless & uncertain about his future / what he truly wants

pinterest board for him if anyone’s interested in that.
