† Personality †
Basic Personality: Micheail Sullivan is the kind of disgustingly gorgeous man who honestly has no idea he’s disgustingly gorgeous. It never fails to surprise him when anyone (especially women) pay attention to him, and he’s anything but arrogant. He tends to be quiet, but one should never make the mistake of thinking him to be shy; he’s just a man of few words, and he only speaks when he has something of value to say (of course, “value” could mean valuable information, or just valuable to the flow of conversation, depending). Micheail is often said to be cold and detached, and in a way, he is, but he’s mostly perceived that way because he’s quiet and he only rarely breaks the look of calm on his face (granted, sometimes calm looks more like pissed on Micheail because of his sharp eyes and naturally pursed lips).
In his wolf form, however, the Ice King melts and Micheail’s lighter side comes out. He becomes friendlier, playful even, despite his wolf’s size and power. Some people see this as the “real Micheail,” but the reality is that Micheail has both sides in himself, and despite their contradictions, they are both true to him.

Hates:
† Ignorance

† Annoying laughs
† Stupid/useless people
Talents:
† Memorization/learning things very quickly
† Cooking
† Conversation, provided the subject is something he’s interested in
† Communicating without speaking (that is to say, communicating a message using expressions or body language)
† His very dry, tongue-in-cheek sense of humor.
† Despite his assertions of being a nerd, is actually decent at sports (not good, but average).
Habits:
† Hides his emotions behind his intellect
† Needs a strategy for almost everything
† Can connect anything to war (much like a very bloody form of ‘Six-Degrees-of-Separation’)
† Loves movies and books more than reality (he is particularly fond of old films, i.e., from the 1900s up to 2015, when he says that standard 3-D ruined everything by causing a wave of horrible movies).
† Knows a lot of useless trivia, like Sacagawea’s son’s name or the exact number of casualties in any given battle
† Very difficult to get talking; however, once one gets him on a good subject (history, politics, sex, etc), he’ll never shut up.
† Runs daily, and is teaching himself (with the aid of several texts and the internet) mixed martial arts.
† He’s quite picky about what he eats, and prefers nutrition to taste; however, like any wolf, he’ll never give up meat.
† He has awful arachnophobia. This has been described as being particularly hilarious when he encounters a spider in his wolf form.
† Appearance †
Skin Color: White, rather pale for a wolf.
Hair Color: Brownish (natural red/ginger highlights in the summer)
Eye Color: Blue
Build: Slender, but reasonably in shape.
Piercings/Scars/Tattoos: None, a few scars, and none
Choice of Clothing: Honestly, he dresses kind of like a nerd.
Wolf Appearance: Micheail’s human appearance is actually very misleading; as a wolf, he’s actually reasonably large. His fur varies from brown to red, particularly in the summer, just like his hair, and his eyes are still the same very piercing blue. As stated above, he becomes vastly warmer in his wolf form, so despite his large size and the immense physical power that comes with wolf form, he’s actually more of a really big teddy bear. Or teddy wolf. You get the idea.
Other: At around 6'3", Micheail is quite tall, which may explain his wolf's size; if he worked out more, his human form has the potential to match.
† History †
History: Micheail was born in Dublin, Ireland circa the year 2008, in the middle of an upwelling of Irish pride in his particular community, which led to his being given a Gaelic name (he also learned Gaelic through his school). His father, Scott Sullivan, and his mother, Orla, were both successful stage actors, and though they were little known outside of the UK, they were quite the toast of West End. Soon after Micheail came his younger twin sisters, Sinead and Mairead, and his youngest brother, Daniel.
In 2015, when Micheail was eight years old, the family moved from London, where they’d been living, to New York, for Scott and Orla to perform on Broadway, which they’d been being asked to do for quite some time. However, life and show business in the Big Apple turned out to be complex and fraught with difficulty they didn’t need trying to raise four children so almost four years later, in 2018, they moved back to London to general rejoicing from that theatre community.
But although they didn’t know it, they had arrived just in time for the war.
Micheail’s father was killed on May the First, the initial attacks, trying desperately to protect his family. Orla took the place of protector brilliantly; with a strong maternal instinct, she managed to keep her children safe through the time of quarantine. Micheail experienced his adolescence through blood and death. One night in 2026, when tempers were running high, Micheail wandered into the wrong part of Hyde Park, a known hot spot for bloody activity, and tried to start a fight. Some say it was a stupid shot at revenge for his father’s death, others a suicide attempt—but one thing is certain: that was the night Micheail was bitten and turned into a werewolf.
At first, he dared not tell his family. Orla had lost a husband, and now she would be half-losing a son. It caused Micheail angst for quite some time, until his mother and siblings finally sat him down and told him, “We already know.” It was quite tearful, but Micheail’s family did not abandon him as he’d thought they would.
A young wolf in the city of London in those turbulent times was always in danger. He found himself a mentor, an older werewolf called Niles. Through Niles, he learned that he could still go after his dreams of learning and being something better, and he was the one who paid for many of his initial college courses when his mother couldn’t afford them. Micheail found solace in his studies, and to this day, whenever he is in any turmoil, he will retreat into some dark library corner and study.
Micheail spent most of the years leading up to the treaty trying to stay alive and trying to find a balance. His siblings, to the best of his knowledge, all died, as did his mother. He felt the sting of their loss as an impetus to keep moving, and to keep his memory alive.
In 2182, he met a woman called Moira Shaw who made everything come together for him. She was a werewolf who was born some twenty years after Micheail. The two fell deeply in love very quickly, and were married in 2184. They had their first child, a son called Scott, a year later. However, a brutal tragedy of chance stole this chance at happiness: Moira and Scott were both killed in an attack by vampires in 2190, when the boy was only five years old. Their deaths, much like the deaths of his family, were a devastating blow.
After the treaty was forged, a safety (albeit a shaky, tense safety) was finally achieved. Micheail quickly set up shop as a respectable historian, believing himself to be finally at balance. He has remained fairly below the radar to this day.
Mother/Father: Orla Sullivan/Scott Sullivan, both deceased
Siblings: Sinead, Mairead, & Daniel Sullivan, all deceased
Offspring: One son, Scott II, deceased
Other: Married for a time to one Moira Sullivan (nee Shaw). Moira was killed in 2190 with their son, Scott.
