Personality
Specious: Lucian is a moody guy, a cynic and skeptic. He is arrogant, comes with knowing that he’s smart, handsome, rich and has everything going for him. But he can't have people know that. He is incredibly polite, thanks to his mother making sure he learned all the manners and always executed them perfectly. The boy can be rather mysteriously charming.
Discerning: Being good at judging people and situations, he had to learn how to use the information. With time, Luke worked on learning what to offer to whom and even better and judging whether a negotiation is worth the compromise or not. He also learned when to threaten and when to please.
Perspicacious: He’s reserved and resigned, he lets things go on as they are, so long as they are not in his way. But he is observant and he is good at reading people and knowing what they want. He could easily be a human lie detector, having seen his parents pull of lies after lies to his face and to each other. Eventually, even his sister fell into that boat. He made a practice of sitting around during mealtimes, eavesdropping on conversations and catching lies.
Skeptical: After his history with his parents lying to him, blatantly and almost through his childhood, Luke developed a healthy dose of skepticism. Not to mention, observing people and the things the did to each other with such ease, increased his cynicism. No matter how much he tries to be appealing and charming, working in large groups. especially for the genuine benefit of someone else, was never his cup of tea.
Chauvinistic: With most entitled females around him, setting a bad example by being either to controlling or too whiny, he lost patience with the gender as a whole. Though he isn't rude to them, because he is too aware of social protocol, but he doesn't think too highly of women and believes that they are the weaker of the two genders. He is yet to meet a female who has convinced him otherwise.
Manipulative: Victor loves to corner people to get what he wants from them. Though he'd usually always make it seem like a win-win, it usually isn't. He is especially nice to the seeming underdogs and loves taking them under his wing. He believes everyone has sides that are advantageous if nurtured right. He is not beyond fanning and fueling the fire to get his own will.
History:
Lucian is the product of two wealthy families. Both families sit on lands with large factories and farms. Their wealth is enough to let them sit at home for generations to come. Despite that both his parents work. His mother is a well known corporate lawyer and his father is a politician. Though the two climbed up to their positions based more on their social status than their efficiency. His father is from Italy and his mother from England. The first six years of his life, he was treated like THE prince.
Then his younger sister arrived and she was quick to become the princess. Lucy (Lucille) became the first reason his parents started pushing him to become less spoiled and more hardworking. He relinquished resistance, out of arrogance he liked to collect information anyways, so he was happy to bury himself in books.
His parents didn’t really lead by example, but they soon grew to be very strict with Lucian and push him to do better in every field. They didn’t deny the things he wanted, but their words and attitude grew cold if Lucian didn’t behave according to their will.
The parents were busy making Lucy a pampered simpering princess and Lucian a hardworking, efficient man. Lucian began resenting his sister and his parents, school and gaming became his refuges. He was gifted with exceptional memory and talent. Though his natural skepticism prevented him from making too many friends or excelling at any team sport, much to his father's misery. He did captain the football team in school though, simply because of his connections.
His father was always pushing him to man-up more and more. Which automatically meant he had to show more interest in sports.They urged him to join a martial art. Krav maga was picked for him. Resigned to his fate, he got leaner and meaner, though he didn’t like having to struggle to win. When he was about 13 he found out that his parents were in fact involved in a lot of illegal trade. In a way he lost respect for them, for their sheer hypocrisy, pushing him to do the right thing, while they were taking the easy way out. Instead of calling them out, he learned to bide his time and the tools of the trade from them.
The same summer he also found out that his father was having an affair with another woman. Initially, he felt pity for his mother. Then he noticed that as his father started getting better and busier at his work, his mom tried to tighten her hold on her son even more, pushing him beyond his limits. He grew distant and started empathizing with his father, mostly because the man wasn't around and the woman clung to her son's every move.
By fifteen as he earned himself some attention from the girls in his school, possibly for being a brooding, quiet, but rich guy. His first 'girlfriend' had a problem with everything he did, or so he thought. Including his Krav Maga classes, he also believed she was horrendously upset about the other girls that fawned over him. Eventually he believed she cheating on him and it gave him the perfect excuse to break up. (Not to mention a fist fight she caused). Soon his values changed a little. He stared assuming that males have the right to keep themselves happy on any grounds… And women are at fault and are all too controlling.
This is when he started nursing his chauvinistic side and started being emphatic about being called Victor and not Lucian, since that was a name his mother picked. Now he basically had two identities, Lucian Vincitore and Lucian Garrett. When he got older, he fashioned himself a third, Victor Garrett. His parents should have gotten divorced, but they gained too many benefits from each other's positions.But they lived separately. He looked down on them for not having enough pride to do the right thing.
By eighteen after getting into a big fight with his sister, since he had no tolerance for her incessant whining and tattling about him to their mother. He broke her laptop in one of those very rare flashes of anger and left the house, midway through his gap year and moved into an apartment with a college girl who was one year his senior but incredibly patient with his ways. He applied for political studies in several prestigious colleges and got through almost all of them. He chose the best one, and was taught all about the Overwatch crisis. Growing up resenting these 'heroes.' He finished corporate law like his mother and now looks for an opportunity to enter politics.
