This 31 year old New Yorker from Washington, D.C. goes by the name of Elias James Monroe. He is currently a resident of the Staten Island Borough and works as the Owner of Luxe Night Club.
The people who know him will tell you that he's Open-minded and Charming, but don't let the soft side fool you. He can also be Aggressive and Impulsive.
HEADCANON
Elias is a part of the London mafia. He was confronted outside his old job in Washington, D.C. and was paid to turn an active murder into a cold case. He took the money and did what was asked. As soon as their bosses caught wind of how talented Elias truly was, they recruited him. He faked his own death and headed to New York, where he now runs his own team, using Luxe Night Club as a front for all things business. 
HEADCANON
He has previously been married. Straight out of high school, he married his high school sweetheart Amelia Thorsen. The two were married for roughly a year and a half before Elias caught her in bed with his best friend shortly after their twins were born. He took her to court and won full custody, stripping his ex-wife of all future parental rights. 
HEADCANON
Elias is a multi-millionaire. Ever since he took his first contract with his now bosses, his daughters and him never had to want for anything. Not many people know this about him as he likes to keep a low profile, careful not to draw unwanted attention from those who could destroy his entire existence.

This 26 year old New Yorker from Queens goes by the name of Aziza Noelle Riley. She is currently a resident of the Manhattan Borough and works as a Recording Artist for Empire Records.
The people who know her will tell you that she's Creative and Friendly, but don't let the soft side fool you. She can also be Sarcastic and Blunt.
HEADCANON
Music is a huge part of her life and her greatest passion. So when she dropped out of high school at 16 to pursue her dream of becoming a singer, it didn't come as a surprise. Thankfully her mother supported her decision. Aziza does not doubt that if it were not for her mother and unwavering support - she wouldn't be where she is today.
HEADCANON
Aziza struggles with anxiety and panic attacks that stem from her father abandoning her at a young age. She tends to hide it pretty well. She doesn't want people to judge or, even worse, pity her. She's never divulged this secret to too many people, only those whom she's super close with.
HEADCANON
She is a huge nerd. Be it over books, movies, tv shows, video games, or comics. She has an extensive collection of them all. Aziza loves to delve into fiction as it has always been an escape from reality for her. She's even cosplayed a few times and hangs out at conventions when she has free time.

This 27 year old New Yorker from Queens goes by the name of Trevor Alexander Callahan. He is currently a resident of the Manhattan Borough and works as the Recruiting Agent for the Atlanta Braves.
The people who know him will tell you that he's Hardworking and Supportive, but don't let the soft side fool you. He can also be Sensitive and Hot-headed.
HEADCANON
Trevor grew up in foster care at a young age after his mother left him at child services and never came back. At age 1 to age twelve, he was in foster care. However the last family he joined, he was the only child and it was a couple that never could have kids. They decided to adopt him after having him for a year. Sadly, his parents divorced when he was 20 years old and it really affected him. 
HEADCANON
Trevor was always a baseball fan but his adoptive father would help him and coach him. It was bonding that Trevor never experienced since he never had a father or a father role model in his life. Even though it was a hobby at first, Trevor got serious about it. He worked super hard in high school and working different positions. He was able to get a full ride scholarship to college where he played college ball. Because of his performance in college, he was able to get recruited to the Atlanta Braves and played as their pitcher for many years. Now back in NY due to a career ending injury. Now working as a recruiting agent for the Atlanta Braves. 
HEADCANON
His injury happened a year ago. When he found out he couldn’t pitch anymore and needed surgery, he spiraled to the point he was depending on drugs and alcohol, even not doing physical therapy. That’s when his parents came together and got him into a rehab in Atlanta. It helped him realize it’s not the end of the world and he can focus on new things. He can still be involved with the team and he can go back to NYC and try to fix things with his first love.

This 26 year old New Yorker from Queens goes by the name of Juliet Rose Jennings. She is currently a resident of the Manhattan Borough and works as a talkshow host for the Just Jules Show.
The people who know her will tell you that she's Creative and Flirtatious, but don't let the soft side fool you. She can also be Stubborn and Untrusting.
HEADCANON
Juliet has never met her father, though she is aware of his identity. She was raised by her mother, Joan, and occasionally, her mother's sister, Nora, who she swears she inherited her gypsy spirit from. Her mother lost her battle with cancer when Juliet was 17. Nora took up residence in their Queens home until she was sure that Juliet could fend for herself.
HEADCANON
Juliet 100% believes in the paranormal realm. She believes in spirits and demons and even angels, though she does struggle with the idea of just one God or that God being male. She has a reading with a medium, Madame Marina, at least once a month, but she gets her tarot cards read at least once a week.
HEADCANON
Juliet first found fame at the age of 22 when she auditioned for the television show The Voice. After winning the competition, she signed a recording contract for Reckless Entertainment. She released her first album shortly after her move to LA and toured the globe all before her 24th birthday.

This 41 year old New Yorker from Manhattan goes by the name of Madison Piper Calloway. She is currently a resident of the Manhattan Borough and works as the Medical Examiner for New York City.
The people who know her will tell you that she's Reliable and Trustworthy, but don't let the soft side fool you. She can also be Reckless and Sarcastic.
HEADCANON
At fifteen years old, Madison had to grow up quickly. She was stripped of her childhood when the FBI and NYPD raided her family’s Manhattan brownstone, searching for Doctor Oliver Calloway, who is now known as Dr.Killoway, it wasn't a very thought out name. Oliver Calloway just happened to be Madison’s father and one of the most prolific serial killers to come out of New York. 
HEADCANON
Madison ended up following in her father’s footsteps and became a doctor, but instead of using her talents for evil, she became a medical examiner and decided she was going to help law enforcement find men like her father. Her goal in life is to make up to New York City for the hell her father put them through. She had originally tried to be an OBYN, but the criticism was too much for her to bear. She was getting death threats, claiming she would be just like her father. So, she changed her focus and decided to find people who followed in her father’s footsteps. 
HEADCANON
Her entire adult life,Madison was told she wasn’t able to have children, which she had come to terms with. The doctor’s had said things about her being infertile, so Madison stopped caring about protection of any sorts and to her surprise at the age of 39 she became pregnant with a little girl, her boyfriend at the time was significantly younger than her and relinquished all his rights to the child. Madison always acts like it’s no big deal, but she’s terrified of her daughter asking about her dad one day.

This 32 year old New Yorker from New Orleans, Louisiana, goes by the name of Hazel Emily Maeve. She is currently a resident of the Brooklyn Borough and works as a Supervisory Special Agent for the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
The people who know her will tell you that she's Observant and Empathetic, but don't let the soft side fool you. She can also be Guarded and Sarcastic.
HEADCANON
Hazel’s life started… rough. Her mother passed, and her father was abusive, so she spent most of her time since she was about six in the French Quarter, either conning tourists or picking their pockets.
HEADCANON
The person she has photos with as ‘her father’ is actually the police officer who picked her up for petty theft in the Quarter. She had been 10 at the time, her biological father had died, and she was surviving on her own. The officer took her in and raised her into the person she is today.
HEADCANON
Hazel was one of the youngest members to ever join the BAU, which put her at odds with most of the members. She always pulled her own weight, helping cases along and finding new angle when no one else could, but it took her taking a bullet to the shoulder before her team really saw her as one of them.

The people who know her will tell you that she's Loyal and Honest, but don't let the soft side fool you. She can also be Impulsive and Stubborn.
HEADCANON
Chloe was a product of a one night stand. Her mother Vanessa Evers, stepped out on her husband and had an affair with a man named Patrick Walsh. Patrick was also her mother's first patient as well. Chloe didn't know about Patrick until her teen years.

This 34 year old New Yorker from Brooklyn goes by the name of Johnathan Maximilian Logan. He is currently a resident of the Brooklyn Borough and works as the Owner/Artist for Ragged Ink.
The people who know him will tell you that he's Creative and Trustworthy, but don't let the soft side fool you. He can also be Possessive and Aggressive.
HEADCANON
Johnny wasn’t a planned kid. He wasn’t unloved either. His parents only wanted three kids, which they got, all girls, but then Johnny came along and ruined the all girl household. He is loved equally (maybe a little more by Mommy) with his older sisters. Though he is favored by his older sister, Freya, who tends to always look out for him when he is in need, especially now that they’re adults. She always seems to bail him out of jail when he gets into bar fights.
HEADCANON
Music was once Johnny’s passion. Drumming, strumming, and even piano-ing. But after a while, he lost interest. Well. It wasn’t because he got bored, really. It all started with a girl. His dreams, aspirations to become something, make a name of himself in the business, was soon chased down the drain when his ex-girlfriend said his music sucked and no one would ever listen to his shit. He believed it and gave up. But after ending that toxic relationship, he got back into it. Though, music is no longer his dream. The only thing he gained from that relationship is heartbreak and anxiety. Mixed with depression.
HEADCANON
Johnny always knew he was different in the sense of sexual orientation. He’d ogle at women, and he’d ogle at men, both captured his attention at the tentative years of middle school. He asked Julie Brunei to go to the school dance but also envied Tina Denmar for taking Zeke Peskie. After high school, Johnny experimented with sex, drugs, and people — finding himself to be pansexual. Sex was sex, and people were people. Though still a little confused with it, he finds himself just enjoying people and what they have to offer him.

This 26 year old New Yorker from Salem, Massachusettes, goes by the name of Mari Jane Harte. She is currently a resident of the Brooklyn Borough and works as an Associate for The Soundgarden Record Shop and Venue.
The people who know her will tell you that she's Creative and Hardworking, but don't let the soft side fool you. She can also be Stubborn and Quick-witted.
HEADCANON
Mari never knew her father until about a few years ago. Her mother always told her that her father abandoned them when she was born causing Mari to hate her father when in truth her mother never told her father about Mari, causing the brunette to be raised by an alcoholic mother who abused her on a daily basis.
HEADCANON
In high school, Mari won her school contest for Battle of the Bands. The grand prize was 5,000 dollars and a meeting with a record exect in New York City. After graduation, she moved to New York and met the record exect. Instead of taking her music seriously, he tried to sleep with her. Mari denied his attempts and the record exec and made it quite difficult for Mari to gain a record contract with anyone in the city, causing her to give up on her dream of being a professional musician.
HEADCANON
Mari has only been in love once. It was her childhood best friend who she finally admitted to her feelings their senior year. He rejected her due to the fact that he was dating the most popular girl in school. Ever since then, Mari has had a string of flings or one night stands, never allowing herself to get close to anyone ever again.

This 27 year old New Yorker from Roswell, New Mexico, goes by the name of Delilah Madison Garcia. She is currently a resident of the Queens Borough and works as a Social Media Influencer.
The people who know her will tell you that she's Loyal and Caring, but don't let the soft side fool you. She can also be Stubborn and Vain.
HEADCANON
Delilah is back in New York mainly because the police are looking into her baby daddies death. It had been ruled a suicide, but new things have come to light that say otherwise. The thing is.. It wasn't a suicide, Delilah staged it to look like one, but she's the one who killed him after a bad fight over him pushing his way into their lives again after not wanting Bentley for so long.
HEADCANON
She cheated on her wife last year. She regrets it. It was merely a product of being lonely. But she's determined to fix her marriage for her kids before all else, but also because she can't imagine life without her wife by her side. It's her biggest regret to date.
HEADCANON
Delilah only popped off on social media because not only is her wife famous, but so is her sister. People are always asking her about them both, what they're working on, and if they'll be around. So she feels very.. second place and used just to get to them, but despite that, she keeps using it to her advantage simply to have something to do and to make a little money on her own.
