the character

appearance: Mason Luke Morrison is a very handsome guy. Now that the obvious is out of the way, we can get more into detail. His hair is always unkempt - that is the first, very noticeable thing about him. About ear-length and a light brown color, he's constantly running his hand through it, and it is always flopping into his eyes. The last time it saw a brush was probably years ago - now, the last time it saw fingers was probably less then an hour ago. Perhaps less then fifteen or so miuntes ago. It tends to be on neutral ground between wavy and straight - and that's how Mason likes it. He doesn't fuss about the way it looks, so as long as it isn't completely messy, he's fine with it.

His eyes are probably the most captivating feature about him. A subtle shade of green-ish brown, they wouldn't seem like the most interesting thing at first. Of course, that's if you hardly know him. They're a rather dull color, and they aren't excessively large for his face. Set outside a rather aristocratically upturned nose, they would definitely seem the least interesting feature. But that, they aren't. Mason has the captivating eyes, if someone would take the time to actually look - they observe quietly, taking in scenery and people with clarity. Names and faces don't faze him - he can remember someone from years ago. In fact, many would say he has close to a photographic memory. Not complete, but close. Along with that, many people have commented that he has a gaze that is very hard to ignore. Calm, almost seemingly indifferent.

Mason is built well. Anyone with vision can see that - hard-packed muscle in his arms, stomach, and legs. He's built for fighting, and he bears the scars of these fights as well. He has several across his pack, especially one noticeable one across his lower abdomen where he'd been hit with a knife when he was young, and a couple across his arms and one on his chest. He isn't one of the guys who bares these scars like they're medals of honor, but he isn't fond of them. His scars are really a passing thought then anything else. Among that, he has a shadow of a beard and mustache across his jaw - which is strong, as it has taken several hits in it's "time".

the mom: Elianna Morrison {deceased}; Mason's mother was the definition of lovely. A pretty brunette with a fiery personality, her and Mason's father were the scandal in Italy. She was part of a linage of royalty, and he, for the lack of a better word, was a commoner. They came to the London to escape the disapproval of everyone - and that built Elianna up. She was a strong woman, with a heart of steel but sweet as sugar. During any holiday, the smell of cookies would be wafting through the air, and there'd be holiday-themed music playing. She hated the silence, and always had music on when there weren't guests over. Every memory Mason has of his mom is sweet and loving. He can't remember a time she ever cried, or struck out in anger, or got in a fight with his father. Elianna Morrison was a very loving woman, all the way to the end.

the dad: Todd Morrison {49}; Todd Morrison started out his life as an alcoholic and a drug-addict. His father disinherited him early on, and he lived on the streets without a home or family. When he met Elianna and her family took him in, he fell in love with her - but her family never failed to remind him that, while they had "adopted" him, he wasn't really part of their family or the royal linage. Elianna was the only one who over-looked that part of his history, and they first became close friends before lovers. When he asked her to marry him and she accepted, her family threatened hell down on her if she didn't annul the marriage, and they moved to London in hopes of some peace and quiet.

siblings: Anabella Morrison {15}; Mason has always thought of little Ana as "the innocent and naive little sister" who needed his protection. While most of that sentence isn't accurate, it barely misses the mark. She looks up to her brother and counts on him for living conditions, food, etc. Ever since Todd resumed his alcoholic ways. They're as close as siblings can be, and whenever Anabella is in trouble or a threat is thrown her way, you can expect her big brother there to knock some sense into whoever needs it - whether it's her or some other kid who thinks they're all that.

early history: In the fall of October 1989, Elianna and Jack were married. That is it where it begins, of course, because if they hadn't married, Mason's life would've been much different. You see, Elianna was pregnant when Jack and her were married, and if they hadn't done so, Mason Morrison would've been raised with a single mother. Seven months after their marriage, they had a child by this name - Mason Luke Morrison, to be more exact, and he was, in fact, a love child in every meaning of the word. Throughout Elianna's life, she never once raised a voice, hand, or showed any sign of disappointment or anger at her husband or child. She was a wonderful woman - and at the age of 32, when Mason was five, she was raped and stabbed on her way home from work after her car had broken down.

Her death devastated the Morrison household. Mason, who was only five at the time, couldn't understand why his mom didn't come home that night. Everything from that point on changed. Todd Morrison went back to drugs and alcohol, and with a newborn baby in their household, Mason struggled to keep his....well, innocence. When he was seven, he and his sister, Anabelle, went to live with his aunt for a few years until Todd cleaned up. He did, in fact, but after he got his kids back, he went straight back to drinking - without the drugs, this time. Most of his paycheck was dedicated to beer and other alcoholic drinks, and what was left over was used for food and other necessities the kids needed.
