Matthew can be very stubborn when it comes to things/people he wants and likes.

He connects the dots easily on trainings and missions, when not distracted. He can easily find creative ways to avoid guards and get what he wants.One of the things that make him really angry is when people he cares about are either insulated or hurt. It's known that Matt once in a while messes something up.
Even with his many faults he is just another one of the good guys. He tries to be a hero when he can, but doesn't always do a great job. He doesn't open up to many, just the people he really likes and trusts. When it comes to his family

BACK TO BASICS...
NAME. Declan Jerry James
→ Some call him Declan; some call him James. It's confusing to some because his last name is commonly a first name, but he's used to it enough that he responds to both. And the middle name? Yeah... it's embarrassing, so let's not talk about that, yeah?
AGE. Eighteen [18]
DATE OF BIRTH. July 10, 1996 [07/10/96]
→ Declan's been told that the number seven signifies 'divine perfection' and ten is 'completion,' and likes to think that it means he is completely, perfectly divine.
PLACE OF BIRTH. Williamsburg, Virginia, U.S.A.
GENDER. Male [XY]
SEXUAL ORIENTATION. Heterosexual, as far as he knows.
RELATIONSHIP STATUS. It's... complicated.
DIVISION. Icken.
→ He's exceptionally good with poisoned needles and knives. But, you know, the brute strength approach usually works too.
GRADE. Twelve [12]
HEADSHOTS...
APPEARANCE.
(view spoiler)
FACE CLAIM. Jan Borrink.
HAIR COLOR. Light brown.
EYE COLOR. Pale blue.
HEIGHT. 6'.5"
DISTINCTIVE MARKINGS. Aside from a few small scars, he doesn't have anything really noticeable. And while he's not against tattoos and/or piercings, he simply has no desire to have any for himself.
VOCAL ATTRIBUTES. He has a deep voice - not a husky voice, just a deep one. The kind of person you want to volunteer to read out loud in class because they're just that good at that. More often than not, however, there's that condescending tone that turns many people away.
UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL...
PERSONALITY. Here's the sitch: Declan James and Eden Lafayette are the best in their division. It's simply undeniable. And yes, Declan will tell you all about it, because, well, everyone, even the incompetent, should be able to hear about Declan's greatness. Eden? Not so much. She's talented, he'll give her that. But not nearly as talented as he is. Because, well... she just isn't. And that's all the reasoning you need on that.
So yes, Declan is an arrogant, condescending douchebag to 99% of the people he encounters (and the 1% is the teachers, because hey, he doesn't want to fail). It's a fact. (Seriously, he's pretty sure that Eden has like, a scatter plot or some sort of statistic for it.) Because one of the things that Declan James discovered early in life was that it's a lot easier to pretend like nothing bothers you. Because people won't think that you're weak if they don't see that you're weak. And well... why give people that advantage over him, right? Why would he be so damn head-over-heels with that girl that he dumped? Why would he always try to prove himself to her and no one else?
Because he loves her.
That's not something he can say about many people in his life. But he loves her. And when he says that, he doesn't mean that he wants to bang her into the next millennium with a couple romantic dates on the side. It means that when he works with her, he has to fight to keep his focus. When he sees her in the hall, it takes everything he has to turn that gaze into a glare. When he saw her almost die, it felt like the ground had been ripped out from underneath him.
Because she understood him. Like no one else had. Because Declan James is not a good person, okay? He's at a school to kill people. But she understood him, how everything could be a moral struggle but also not at all, the way he could feel remorse but sleep at night. She understood it. She understood the way he always felt like he had to act tough. She understood it. They knew each other, and not just in the Biblical sense. He loved her for the way her hair dried on its own with just-barely-frizzy little curls on the end, and the face that she made when he knew she was judging him, and the way she looked when she smiled. And he still does.
But he's always been really shitty at expressing his feelings (or, at least, in an articulate way that isn't crying) so it's going to stay that way. Because... she doesn't want anything, right? So it'd be worthless to give it another chance? But just maybe, maybe, if Eden was willing to give him one more chance... No. Because he's not going to compromise his position. She's not that important, right? Just a girl. (Or at least that's what he tries to convince himself.) Because he knows that him pining over her is more than a little bit unhealthy.
And besides. Heaven forbid Declan Jerry James look weak in the eyes of the Ymira student body.

(view spoiler)
Eye color: Dark Brown

Vocal attributes: Soprano; Charming; Whimsical
Distinguishing feature(s): A tattoo of a sparrow on her right lower back (view spoiler) .
Personality:
"Rules are lovely and all, but I think I'll have to pass. The way I see it, the most important part is when it mentions being punished if we get caught."
-Suzume to a fellow student during her freshman year
"What do I love? Sunsets, butterflies, birds, and you, of course."
-Suzume to one of her ex-boyfriends
"'Why am I so cheery?' I think think what you really mean is 'Why aren't I wallowing in self-pity'. Simple, the sun's still shining, the earth's still turning, and I'm still breathing. My every decision until I stop though, is just that, mine. So what's really unclear is why I shouldn't be happy."
-Suzume to a fellow student during a particularly dreary mission
"Lying is a game, you see. In it, you put on a show and see how long it takes for your audience to see through the illusion. Some might claim that it is not, though, simply on the grounds that there is no amusement to be found. I, however, think that the problem is merely that they're playing with themselves."
-Suzume to a target shortly before assassinating them
"Yes, I'm aware of my sins, but if my soul may be sacrificed to save many, so be it."
-Suzume to her mother shortly before enrolling in Ymira Academy
Strengths:
{Dancing} While years of training under masters of traditional Japanese dancers, including her own mother, have allowed Suzume's natural talent for that particular dance to flourish, it can also be noted that her training and talent, combined the acrobatic grace that she inherited from her father, allow her to excel at most types of dancing. The love she has for dancing doesn't exactly hurt either, though, and in fact, it's the reason that she often takes it upon herself to learn new dances.
{Stealth} Although one of the focuses of her father's training was to remain cloaked within shadows until the moment when it becomes necessary to strike, Suzume has also her own spin to the skill of blending in with one's surroundings. This uses her personal ability to draw people's attention to pull off something akin to a social version of a magician's sleight of hand. After all, the last person people generally suspect to be a stranger, or even a spy, is the one willing to draw attention and converse comfortably with everyone.
{Charm} While Suzume's charm is one of the key components in her favourite strategy for blending in, it's also what allows her to usually be extremely successful when coaxing key information from targets during missions.
{Acting) Overtime, Suzume has come to realize that unlike many people, she has no trouble evaluating a role she needs to take on and easily slipping into it like a second skin. In fact, she often turns it into a game of sorts, one in which she attempts to see exactly how far she can get a person, or else a group, to fall for her act, so that she might laugh upon their foolishness.
{Languages} Cyril, upon recognizing his Suzume's natural talent for conversation, decided that the best way to take advantage of this would be to ensure that she knew a multitude of languages. Therefore, due to his training, she is currently fluent in English, French, Italian, and Japanese, and is currently working on learning Russian.
Weaknesses:
{Rebellious Attitude} Suzume has a tendency to deny the power of authority figures, oftentimes simply for thrill or else to enjoy the irritated looks their faces tend to don as they grow more and more impatient. However, for this reason, she doesn't exactly have a wonderful reputation among teachers, as well as teacher's pets and their ilk.
{Need for Motivation} Seeing as Suzume usually requires some sort of reason in order to complete a task, be it money, revenge, or simply because something seems fun, without this motivation it's generally rather difficult to actually get her to focus on something. Instead, she'll simply either complete the bare minimum or else entirely avoid the task.
{Capriciousness} Plunging into things without much forethought isn't exactly a very good quality in anyone, let alone an assassin or spy. Therefore, while things tend to work themselves out when Suzume acts rashly, or else she manages to simply move on, hopefully learning something, after getting into a sticky situation, it's still a liability.
{Cooking} Being raised pretty much as the heiress she is, Suzume hasn't really ever had much training in practical skills. Therefore, no matter how much cooking fascinates her, the lack of experience as well as her often reckless attitude don't exactly make for a good cook. Nonetheless, this doesn't stop her from attempting to cook whenever she has the chance, and occasionally unfortunately ignorant souls are offered her cooking.
{Romantic} Having grown up listening to the story of how her own parents met, and, eventually, fell in love, Suzume started to believe this was the norm at one point time. As result, when over time she discovered that this was not the case, she subconsciously decided not to admit it and rather cling to her ideals. Nowadays, this results in her constantly getting into relationships which have very little emotion in them and don't get very far, but nonetheless have her convinced that she's entirely convinced, at least for a while.

History: Despite the love Miu and Cyril Blackwood share for each other today, there relationship wasn't always so positive. Initially, all Cyril was searching for was a female with a bloodline and talents worthy enough of birthing the next heir of the Blackwood family, which had once been knighted for its services to the crown, and since then continued to family business: espionage and assassinations. Among the candidates he found was Tsukino Miu, the youngest daughter and sixth child of the Tsukino family, which held a long tradition of raising some of the best dancers in the east. Nonetheless, even among all the beautiful blossoms that surrounded her, Miu possessed a certain grace that set her apart, as well as a sharp mind and silver tongue to back up her pedigree as well. However, due to both Miu and Cyril's intellectual and spirited natures, they had a habit of clashing and perplexing each other rather than merely getting along. Nonetheless, time wore them down, and before they knew it, they were laughing in the other's presence more than yelling. Four years of courtship then ended with a engagement, which, in approximately a year's time, became a marriage.
While Cyril had once sought to merely marry and hopefully produce the next greatest assassin, with Miu, he actually found himself in a healthy and loving relationship. Thus, when Suzume was born a female and Miu's constitution proved only just strong enough to get her through one childbirth, Cyril content himself with the idea of simply being grateful that he had a beautiful daughter and his wife was still alive. It would be several years before he'd actually consider training his daughter to be the heir to the family trade. Therefore, until she was about six, Suzume lived a life similar to many of her female ancestors, her mother included. Despite being born in one of her father's apartments in London, as soon as she was old enough her parents decided to move into the estate of one of the Tsukino family's estates which was also inhabited by the family of Miu's older brother Ryou. Through the years, Suzume received preaching from all manner of distant relatives and masters of dance on how she much constantly remained poised, calm, collective, and a long list of other adjectives that held little interest for her. Instead, like most children, she preferred to wander, only to what was considered a greater extent. She quickly learned to walk, and even run, and once she did, she was off to see the world. Of course, she wasn't always able to get away from her lessons, rarely even, but overtime she learned what it was she needed to do to even win a mere minute of freedom.
One might believe that Suzume's talent for slipping out of sight would've quickly informed her father to reconsider his earlier judgements. Nonetheless, having already almost lost his wife and only possessing one child, Cyril was not exactly eager to take too many risks regarding his family at the moment. As a result, it took a visit from his own mother to remind him of the family values as well as point out the abilities of his daughter. Therefore, it was Suzume's sixth birthday that marked her father's return to the covert world, as well as the start of her own path.
Although Cyril obviously had issues with imparting his own knowledge upon Suzume at first, when it came down to actually acting, he realized that he could not hesitate. In turn, his training did not coddle Suzume in the slightest. He wasn't ruthless, obviously, as he loved her and always has, but he knew that he couldn't afford to go easy on her, as the world would not. Therefore, young Suzume was often covered in bruises, though the major causes tended to be both her training and curiosity. Still, though Cyril didn't hold back when it came to physical training, he was reluctant to explain to his daughter the purpose behind it all. As a result, the young girl saw it all as more of a secret game, which, while furthering her ability to conceal the truth, did not assist in her understanding of the world. It would take an entirely different and more dramatic event to cause Miu to realize what direction she would have to eventually take with the knowledge she acquired.
When Suzume was eleven years old, she was kidnapped by a group of thugs who hoped to hold the young heiress for ransom. She was held in a deserted warehouse in which they lived, and the criminals believed they had concocted the perfect plan. They had stolen a limousine and claimed that her father had hired them to drive her to him on her way home from school, and Suzume, believing the best of people at the time, followed them without question. After all, they didn't look too suspicious or anything, and her father did occasionally send chauffeurs. Having been a bit sheltered due to her days being split between training by her father and mother's family, she also didn't suspect anything when she was held in the same place for a few days. However, Suzume was extremely bored. Therefore, she suggested that they might play hide and seek, and the thugs, ignorant of the implications of her version of the game and as well as rather sick of simply sitting around and waiting for the family to make up their minds about what to do, agreed. Of the four thugs, none of them understood that that when Suzume meant run to the base she'd picked, they truly had to run, so one by one the first three went down after being hit by the hilt of a kitchen knife. They weren't dead, inexperienced Suzume was merely mimicking the action her father had done much more lightly to her when she failed to escape during their games, but they did have a fair concussion, as she hadn't ever realized that Cyril had always been holding back on her. The fourth kidnapper, however, was not aware that his companions were still alive. He merely watched in shock and horror as a eleven year old girl seemingly killed off his friends while he carefully moved to where his gun was stored. When Suzume finally found him, she was rather confused to find a gun pointed at her as well. While her father had never quite advised her of the danger of the danger of using her skills on others (he'd merely said that he'd be extremely angry if she did and that was enough to stop her), he had warned her that a gun was an atrocity used to harm people brutally and messily, generally by cowards. Therefore, when the criminal threatened to shoot, Suzume remembered the fact that her father had told her that if stabbed, a person would likely not harm her. After plunging her blade into the chest of the man though, she was shocked to see that after a few minutes, not only did he drop his gun, but he also stopped bleeding. Therefore, she ran to a telephone and called Cyril, who quickly whisked her from the scene. In the end, the entire incident was covered up by publicizing the story that the thugs had fought over the ransom money, which lead to one dying, three injured, and Suzume miraculously unharmed, at least physically.

Other: Suzume's carefree attitude, particularly when it comes to the school code, hasn't exactly won her any brownie points with the teachers. If anything, most of them would like nothing better than to send her off, but between the fact that she's rather talented at not getting caught (other than the incident regarding her red highlights in freshman year) and her father's family is filled with former alumni and generous sponsors, their hands are pretty much tied.

[ History ] The only child of a career chemist and his botanist wife, Harry was fascinated by the intricate properties of his father's 'rainbow water' and 'sick sweets' and his mother's 'pretties'. Ironically, and in accordance to their ill-disguised desires, Kristoffer and Agnes Frankenberg were overjoyed to discover their 'little Harry' taking to their chosen fields with such a marked enthusiasm, realising before long that they had a prodigy on their hands. A practitioner of the old school of medicine, where doctor's produced their own remedies by dicing and distilling various chemical components, Harry soon began to receive personal instruction from his father whilst his mother saw it as her role to instill within their son a love for the beauty of nature. It was at the age of five that he killed his first victim. Finding his son dissecting a rat he had poisoned with his very own compound the boy had proudly called 'no-squeak', it soon became apparent what must be done. Packing the lad off to boarding school with a pet cat for company, the hope was that Harry, previously something of an introvert loner, would acquire the art of making friends, and in caring for 'Duchess', come to value the precious commodity that was life. Never one to let his beloved parents down, Harry soon brought further acclaim to the Frankenberg name, astounding his teachers with his almost encyclopaedic knowledge and desire to devour all they had to teach in the fields of not only biology and chemistry, but in history, music, and, of all things, Latin. Far removed from all he had known as a child, young Harry was forced to alleviate the awfulness of his isolation by extending his social feelers, eventually forming a small group of close friends. It was only when word filtered through to his parents of suspicious absences from the school menagerie, and the suspicious sickening of a teacher Harry allegedly despised, that the suggestion of his ultimate destination for further learning presented itself, having extended the offer of a full scholarship to study biochemistry, which was gladly accepted.
