▾ ⋮ personality:
Tom is nothing short of internal. He keeps to himself, and rarely ever expresses any emotion or feeling. He is always keeping to himself, and is always thinking of ways to better himself, or create something that’ll continue to amuse him. That’s right; he loves to create things aside his vampiric nature. He will actually go as far to call himself a builder with his exceptionally bright mind. Included with his creative nature is a very silent Tom Black. He will do whatever he can to keep a conversation to a minimum, never really caring on what people have to say- except for his fellow house members, which he is surprisingly close with. He always keeps to his studies, seldom taking his eyes off one of his textbooks, nonetheless, thinking of something other than his studies.
Like stated earlier, Tom is brilliant, excelling in anything when it comes to academics; and he is not afraid to let you know that either. When it comes to his own abilities, or his own intelligence, Tom is never afraid to either belittle you based on some stupid comment you’ve made or isn’t bothered to let you know how talented he is; physically and mentally. Tom is also rarely ever seen with someone outside of Void, sticking particularly close with those he most relates to. With his fellow house members, he seems to be a nearly different person. Sticking to his quiet persona, and brilliant mind, he loves to make conversation with them. And even despite these biased feelings based on people outside of Void, he has really great social skills.
When it comes to problems outside of personal issues, Tom really doesn’t care what happens to people- besides himself of course. Like stated, he only shows real emotion and care for those closest to him and isn’t afraid to leave others in the dust while he and his others thrive. This is, by far, Tom’s coldest and darkest trait. He feels it’s what makes him unique. Tom also stays away from parties unless someone from Void- which is never- basically begs him to go along with them. Tom is also a braggart, also stated earlier. Sticking to passive-aggressiveness, he’s never scared to let you know how much better he is than you, if challenged.
Contrary to his dark manner, Tom despises when people attack others or bully them for no apparent reason. He’s never hesitant to stop a situation in which calls bullying. He hates to see other students harassed for any reason, unless they provoked the one ‘bullying’ them, which, to be honest, Tom would have no idea about.

▾ ⋮ history:
Tom, growing up, was always a rather mischievous kid. He would really do what he wanted, when he wanted- at night of course. His parents never really minded what he did either, as long as he never got into any trouble. His parents never really disciplined him, and without any real discipline, he would often get into trouble with the police, or with the grumpy folk who would sit out on there porches at 11 o’clock at night. How was he not caught for being a vampire you ask? He was just good at acting human… or anything that wasn’t considered ‘evil.’ Despite this juvenile attitude he had, he loved to read; he loved to fill his brain with any knowledge he could. And this was somewhat hard for him only because he was a vampire. He could never go out when all the stores were open, which actually led him to his juvenile actions. He would, surprisingly sneakily, break-in to these bookstores solely just to ‘borrow’ these books. And borrow him he did. He would always return the books to the store in the same manner he stole them; he would break-in and put them back on their respective shelves, only when done with them. And when he wasn’t sleeping during the day, he was using his imaginative mind to build things purely to keep him interested until night time.
He would build just about anything, and because of this building interest, he also spread his burglaries to more than just bookstores. He began to steal from hardware stores, general stores, or just about anywhere he knew that sold something interesting. And not long after, in his local neighborhood in Manchester, a bounty was set out for Tom. Though, it was just more of a ‘Be on The Lookout for someone breaking into stores at night and stealing shit.’ Of course, Tom’s parents knew it was him the one doing it. I mean, they already knew (and didn’t mind) that he always left and came back with various books… but never tools and supplies. Did they mind this either? Of course not. Without a scolding or anything, Tom was let off the hook. However, as tensions rose for various store owners across the city, Tom scarcely ever went out to steal things anymore. At this point, he only went out to hang out with the other neighborhood delinquents, or the ‘normal’ kids of the neighborhood.
Tom never did have any intention of ever going to school, believing that all the books he had read- all of them varying from non-fiction to Chemistry textbooks, and even mythical story books- were more than enough of a substitute for education. But, in some way, Tom felt that he was different than most kids- besides the fact that he would always have a burning sensation in sunlight, or besides the fact that he was stronger and faster than any other being that wasn’t a vampire or some sort of magical creature. After months of just basically doing nothing besides going out with people every night to do stupid shit, he decided to enroll at Addermire Institute at the age of 16. He regretted it, of course, though he knew he needed it. In his first year at the school, he talked with almost nobody, only caring to make a couple of friends in Elderlock; his house at the time, sticking only to his studies really. However, shortly into his second year, he was contacted personally by the Void Housemaster, Oliver Leventis. Explaining shortly but with great detail that he noticed Tom was different and that he would be joining Void.
After joining Void, Tom has no real interest with anyone except those in Void, only keeping things to himself or the others in Void.

▾ ⋮ personality:
At first glance, Drew is someone who can only be described as calm and cool. He has a tendency to be shy before getting to know someone, showing more of an introvert side of himself than anything. Through just meeting anyone, he will be a rather quiet, smooth-talking man, keeping most conversations interesting but at a minimum if necessary. He does this because he is incredibly worried about what people think about him, and underneath that shy, cool boy is a much wilder side of him. After truly getting to know someone, or actually getting comfortable around them, he becomes a lot more talkative, a lot flirtier, and a lot more ambitious to further their friendship. Once breaking out of his little shell, he will always try to be a sort of a showoff whether it be through showing his chiseled figure, or just simply talking about how much money he owns or the massive parties he could throw with his immense amount of money. He has no real self-control when he’s out having fun, and is rather prone to getting into accidents.
Despite this horrific nature, he is still as friendly as can be to those who treat him the same. He hates losing friends, thus causing him to be quite cautious about what he talks about when around them, or specific people. He always thinks about his friends over himself. You may think this is selfish, which it totally is, but he’s just trying to keep all the friends he can.
Drew will also do just about anything to be the center of attention. He loves throwing parties just so people can talk about it before and after the event. Another thing; he loves to spread gossip. If any drama happens, it’s always as if Drew is the first to hear about it, and he is always the first to spread it to any open ears. In other words, Drew is your wannabe popular teenage boy. He will also use nearly any excuse just to take his shirt off

▾ ⋮ history:
Drew, like his father, was born a Djinn. However, unlike his father, he was born a smaller Djinn. Growing up, Drew and his brother, Connor, never really had a mother. Their mother had left days after Drew had been born, and left a very young Connor and Drew to be tended to by their constantly drunken father. Making matters even worse, Drew was hated by his father while Connor was like a shiny new trophy to him. Drew was never truly parented, unlike his older brother, which led him to grow up like a rebel. He was never home, he got into drugs and alcohol at a young age, and never attended school until he was seventeen. Drew’s father always neglected him, only because he wasn’t a stronger, larger Djinn like his older brother had been. This also led to Drew becoming a large attention seeker.
When Drew was only about five years old, his father made it very clear to him that he hated him, making sure to “Get that through his thick, monkey skull.” And Drew did. Growing up, he was used to being his brother’s shadow, never getting the recognition Connor did, and never getting the same things Connor had. He was only really ever given things when Connor didn’t want it anymore. Tired of living like a shadow, he grew into a life of partying while his brother received the utmost training from his father and an at home school tutor that his dad hired- Specifically for Connor, of course. However, despite how much Albus hated Drew, Connor loved Drew like family should. Constantly spending time with him while their father was off getting drunker somewhere in the city.
After countless nights of Drew leaving his house and not coming back well into the daytime, he grew a gambling addiction when he was about eleven. He became very fond of it actually, gambling on just about anything he could. Whether it be sports, poker games, or even just him and his newfound friends betting on the most random things imaginable. And, I guess you could say Drew was an incredibly lucky man, building up a near fortune with his constant bet winnings. That is, until reality punched him in the face. His father had been hospital-ridden due to severe alcohol poisoning. Drew put every penny he could into helping his father’s recovery even after the way he’d been treated his whole life.
Drew doesn’t even know why, but this moment kind of changed the way he looked at his own life, and even the other’s around him. He decided to enroll in this academy, knowing there could be some sort of future ahead of him here, just knowing that he had to turn his life around somehow.
