               ⌜   CIS MALE, HE/HIM   |   castle on the hill by ed sheeran, gryffindor, enfp   ⌟    ⏤   meet JULIAN CHARLES HOOD ; a 36 year old who kind of resembles SAM HEUGHAN, don’t you think? they originally hailed from NOTTINGHAM, ENGLAND where they lived with their parents, ROBIN & MARIAN HOOD, but word is that they’ve been [ LIVING IN COLORADO, WORKING AS A CONSERVATIONIST ]. they’ve always been pretty MAGNETIC & GENTLE, but have gotten way more CUNNING & RECKLESS since they woke up. maybe their power/ability of PERSUASION can help in taking down the dome.

                                                           read his full bio

overview:

the eldest of the hood children, julian was always a bright and vibrant boy with a huge place in his heart for animals

he used to always sneak animals into the hood family house and try to hide them in his room (robin and marian always knew)

his parents told him that animals were always better off in their natural habitat, and the best thing you could do was respect them and their home

they taught him that so they’d stop finding bugs and snakes into their living room, but the lesson really resonated with him!!

it became a huge part of his core beliefs 

soon he started observing animals, interacting a little with them if they felt comfortable or needed help, but otherwise left them alone

and then he found a fawn caught in a bear trap 

he helped it escape and then brought it to the vet, where they patched it up and taught him how to nurse it back to health 

his parents let him help the fawn, and with his father’s help he converted the backyard shed to an animal sanctuary 

soon he started bringing in a multitude of animals — only ones who needed help, of course — until eventually releasing them back into the wild 

when it came time for college at walt disney university, julian decided on a major of ecology and a minor in conservationism 

as the reality of the state of the planet (and the dismissal of the government and large corporations) really began to set in, julian’s view of changing the course of the planet because less idealistic

basically he was bummed but motivated

he started volunteering with non-profits and stuff while he got his phd

and he started petitions and did research and tried to meet with government officials and ceos to make things happen

but they didn’t happen, or they didn’t happen how he wanted

eventually he started using his powers of persuasion to...help him along

he started getting large donations, getting them to agree to change the way they ran business, etc. 

every bit of it was ALWAYS for the environment, but he was doing shady stuff

he started getting blackmail on people so when his powers wore off, they’d want to keep their side of the bargain 

his methods aren’t even questionable they’re just downright wrong and illegal

but he’s never benefited from any of it. everything he gains through these trickster methods always goes right to either environmental non-profits, forest rehabilitation, or ecological research

headcanons:

he graduated from wdu with his phd about a decade ago so idk if anyone would know him from school, maybe if they also went to wda and knew him when they were freshmen 

the eldest hood (thomas is his younger brother so if ur character knew thomas chances are they either knew or knew of julian)

a good older brother, but also a typical older brother?

basically steve irwin, charlie weasley, newt scamander, and robin hood rolled into one whole dumbass

he’s so! gentle! with animals! 

likes them more than people tbh

just v gentle in general he very rarely loses his temper

when he does it’s a very righteous anger

sagittarius sun, scorpio moon, gemini rising

his whole natal chart is just bde 

chaotic good

has caused some not great companies to shut down 

was proud of that but also realized that his actions caused a lot of innocent people to lose their jobs

tries to justify that with the thought of the “greater good”

lives in essentially a shack 

most of his house is overrun by animals that are being rehabilitated 

plant daddy

v flirty, v charismatic, v romantic 

joey tribiani vc: how you doin’? 

covered in freckles

constantly sun-burned (ginger white boy always out in nature?? he screwed. loves the sun, it doesn’t love him back)

is a little insta famous

has been sued before and arrested for the shit he’s done

nothing stuck; in a court of law all he did was ask for things and receive them

wouldn’t ever hurt a fly, would never harm an innocent person (intentionally), has a big heart and would do everything in his power to help the underdog 

doesn’t always realize the long-term consequences of his actions

self-righteous 

single af, focused on his career 

fosters puppies and kittens and helps them find homes 

literally so fucking tender and loving deep down

lowkey lonely, really wants someone to love 

loves animals instead (mood)
