Name: Vespasian Timaeus
Nick Names or Alias: V
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Sexual Preferances: Straight
Employment: Yes
Job Title & Description: He is a research scientist at Monsanto Inc. He works on his own invention, the "Genetically Dominant Aggressive Agricultural Gene" or the GDAAG for short. He has used Monsanto's already impressive hold over the market of soy beans and is working on extending it to Grain, Wheat, and Corn.
Appearance:
Vespasian is usually wearing blue jeans that are tattered with age. He also wears a baggy black shirt with a tribal pendant around his neck. He also wears a large brown trench coat with many pockets on the inside that are filled with salts and elements of the periodic table. Vespasian is strong and it shows even through the baggy shirts he always wears, but no female has ever seen his bare body to attest to the status of his muscles.
Vespasian has a ring of Mind 2 effects to connect him with others so that he might be able to find and connect to those he cares about when he has his rare mental break downs. It has the family crest on it, which is Yigdrasil the serpent curled around the World Tree with a shield in the background with "Nemo me impugna lacessit" inscribed on the serpent.
Vespasian has a Verbena tatoo that has the effects of life 3 inscribed in him. It is a tattoo of a pentacle with a tribal pattern around the edges and nordic runes surrounding the tribal pattern. His mother put this on him to protect him in his quest for vengeance against the nephandi that killed his father.
Misc.:
Personality: He is genial to most people, and generally liked for a technocratic mage. He likes walks in the parks and on beaches or anywhere in nature as long as its at night. He is controlling by nature but not towards people, he has a kind of disregard for the health and well-being of random people. He does care about their lives, but not much beyond that. He won't go out of his way to harm or hurt other people, and is generally internalized. His favorite activity is by far to sit in his garden and write down his stories.
Vespasian is an odd character. He loves studying, but hates school. He loves chess but hates winning. He loves martial arts but will never demonstrate them except when threatened. He is passionate but restrains his passion in all ways. He is very much a repressed person, but he is like that by his own will. He has never indulged in drink, nor in pleasures of the flesh, as well as drugs. His only vice is that he smokes like a chimney. He has been smoking since age 14. He loves building things such as cities or houses of cards. He is extremely great at organization and problem solving but never very good at practical problems. He is lofty in speech and in ideals and tries to hold himself up to his own ideals. He doesn't look down on others but feels that if he is to lead others to ascension then he must be perfect. At the same time he curses himself for never allowing himself to relax, party, drink, or sleep around during his teenage years. He worries about these urges of his own passionate nature he received from his mother, a powerful Verbena. This results in a tumultuous and roiling bout of emotion that goes on deep inside Vespasian allowing him to use this passion to fuel his magic with its intensity in dire situations. This also provokes most to view him as a moody genius and thus contributes to his loner status. He feels alone at the top of a mountain surrounded either by enemies or supplicants, never with an equal to identify with. This results in massive paranoia and stress which is why he smokes so much.
Likes: He loves nature...in a twisted way...he loves perfecting it or at least what he sees as perfecting it. He is always looking for ways to control nature, to harness its energy for progress and privatization. He wishes to own the world through the land itself. He likes industry, or rather the pursuit of work and labor. He often will eschew tools in order for him to use excess effort to accomplish tasks. In other words he pathologically takes the harder way in life. He loves roses, flowers, and all types of greenery fancying himself a gardener.
Dislikes: He dislikes free love and any such hippy nonsense. He hates the idea of community and the proletariat. He hates the people who complain about their lives and their problems without solving them. He also has an irrational fear of sea creatures.
History:
Vespasian was born to Anita and Rasputin Vones II on September 6th 1988. Vespasian was born at a healthy ten pounds even within a Verbena compound. He had been conceived during the Verbena fertility festival on Easter, and as such was imbued with a natural affinity for life and spring. When he was born, he was the healthiest baby the entire compound had seen, appearing not at all jaundiced or malnourished. The Vones family was the pride of the Verbena cabal in the Southern United States. His mother trained him in healing magic while his father taught him in offensive magic away at war against the Technocracy.
His father was a potent medic and animator fighting along side the Garou and other servants of Gaia the earth mother against the evils of the polluting of the Technocracy. Rasputin was a force to be reckoned with, giving his all to his cause...that of Green Peace. He fought tooth and nail for animal and plant rights, while fighting as well for environmental protection in legislation. His day job was an attourney for Green Peace, and his night time was running with wolf packs of Garou, shapechanging with his life magic and healing their kindred. He was a potent medic but mostly was used for his ability to bring the inanimate earth itself to life. He made golems. His most famous battle was against the Technocracy's installation of the Alaskan pipeline. The battle was almost won, the Wendigo and their fiercest warrior, Winter's Edge, had the Technocracy on the run, when a Nephandus rose from the bowels of hell and started incinerating Wendigos left and right, unleashing a portal of Wyrm-spawn as well. Rasputin was able to make an ice fortress in time to save most the Garou as well as his son and wife but the technocracy's paradox generators rendered him insane by bringing down the mallet of the world's complete rejection of magic, leaving him defenseless as the Nephandus tore him apart devouring his soul. Winter's Edge delivered a stirring eulogy for his fallen comrade and even added him to the list of fallen brother's certain to enter Gaia's embrace upon death.
Anita was shattered by this loss and took her son, Vespasian back home turning her backs on the Wendigo's as her will to fight had been crushed. She turned to drugs and alcohol to rid her memory of her husband, but in the end found it too much. She tattooed her husband's symbol into her son's flesh while imbuing him with her last ounce of magic as she killed herself.
Vespasian took these horrors of the fight against the Technocracy personally, and abandoned the Verbena not wanting to share in his fathers and mothers fate. He forgot all about his Tradition and moved on to high school. Then to college. And finally to magic. His powers weren't neglected, he still practiced but forgot all the Verbena rites and the earth worship, simply wishing to just forget. His passions and all those happy times of his frolicking high and drunk with his clan mates were forgotten and repressed. He was recruited by Monsanto after getting his degree in bio-engineering, not knowing that Monsanto is actually a Technocratic front to recruit new mages. There he developed the signature product which made the domination of the entire agricultural market possible, the "Genetically Dominant Aggressive Agricultural Gene" or the GDAAG for short. Since then he has been rewarded handsomely and been nominally recruited into the New World Order branch of the Technocracy.
Now he is at a loss for what to do, or even what to desire, having fully repressed his emotions he simply goes about his normal day to day life without anything to break his ennui.
