This is DANE WAYLAND's brother, who faked his death in order to leave the guild. He was known in the guild as Dino Wayland, but he has a new identity now, so you can name him whatever you wish. I imagine he is living his life, always looking behind him, always afraid the Guild will find him. Perhaps nervous to make new relationships, because they could be used against him. What he does now is up to you, his personality and all are up to you, but his history (at least until he was about 23) need to match Dane's. Definitely read through Dane's history. [break][break]

Dane and Dino were born into a crime family that ended up being a close hand to the Guildmaster's family. They grew up alongside the Guildmaster's children, and grew up with little censorship to brutality; expected, themselves, to grow into brutal and cold clones of their father. Dino was groomed by his father to inherit the Wayland name/faction. Dino was generally more liked than Dane was (because Dane's a little shit), but Dino struggled with being a murderer. Dane knew this. And where Dino kept Dane grounded, Dane would often step up and be the one to pull the trigger or put pliers to toes, because he knew Dino was so affected. [break][break]

Around five years ago, Dino faked his death (probably with some help) and reinvented himself. Dyed hair, contacts, etc. (I chose Marco Adriano as the suggested face claim, because I imagined Dino Wayland as a blonde, and if he got that scar after leaving the Guild, it might help? Idk. You can choose whoever you want for the face claim.) What he does now is completely up to you, but I can't help but imagine he lives with the constant fear/knowledge that at any moment he could be discovered. Dane does suspect that Dino is still alive, and a few of the Wayland men do as well (Dane definitely gets in fights when Dino's name is on their lips, calling him a traitor and whatnot). Dane's pretty fucked up about it, deep inside. I mean, it's been five years, so he's had time... and a part of him knows Dino is probably happier, but he hates his brother for abandoning him. He hates him because he misses him. Because he left him. Because even though Dino needed Dane to pull the trigger when he couldn't, Dane needed Dino to keep him tethered. To be their father's best son, so Dane could be ignored. To give him a reason to do things, because Dane doesn't care much about anything, but he loved his brother. Dane has had a rough time since Dino's disappearance, with everyone. His father, everyone else in the Wayland faction, everyone. And he wonders if he will be able to kill his brother, or sit by and watch his brother be killed, if the time came that he was found. Or if Dino would kill him, to protect his new life.

I would love nothing more than to see this character on the site so we could eventually plot some sort of interaction with Dane and him. Drama, drama, drama.

I'll be referring to this character as Chloe throughout this Wanted Ad because that's what I called her in @frosttalon's application, but you can name her whatever you like. I'll just edit my application and change it to whatever you choose. Last name should be Kasyanov (unless she married??). Ivan's twenty-three and they're twins, so she would be the same. Basically, you have free reign on everything else. You can make her however you wish, just make sure her history doesn't conflict with what's in Ivan's application. Below are some points in my personal interpretation of this character, but you don't have to abide by them. Pick and choose the ones you like or ignore them all, it's up to you.[break][break]

- Her and Ivan are super competitive. When they were little kids, Chloe stabbed him in the leg with a pen over a video game (which got their console taken away for two months). They have a running tab of wins and losses between them and have challenges all the time, ranging from serious to trivial. They're the kind of siblings who'd take things too far just to see who could one-up the other.[break][break]

- They cut/dyed their hair about the same time and still argue to this day over which one of them "wears the look" better. Or who "copied" the other. If it weren't for that actually, one or the other would probably have changed looks by now.[break][break]

- Artistic. Ivan gives her all of the pottery he makes and she paints it and sells it.[break][break]

- Played hockey. Mom pushed her to become a complete Juggernaut on the ice. Mom and daughter probably yell at games on TV and get super angry whenever their team loses. Their mom is borderline about-to-jump-over-this-barricade-and-beat-that-blind-referee.[break][break]

- Amazing with Pokemon. Ivan's Pokemon have always, always liked her more and over three-quarters of them in the past have ended up becoming her Pokemon.[break][break]

- The occasional habit of "babysitting" Ivan. Like making him breakfast, because Arceus knows the last time the dumb boy looked at a vegetable or consumed something that wasn't 90% sugar. She's an abhorrent cook but Ivan gobbles it down like five-star cuisine (he has zero taste). Perhaps the only reason she cooks for him is because he's the only one that's ever stomached it.[break][break]

- Her and Ivan are both little math/physics/mechanic nuts and that's something they were always doing together growing up; designing and building things, creating stuff, and simply tinkering with everything.[break][break]

- Likes to fuck with Ivan about his superstitions. Probably knows what website he uses to look them all up, and adds some, or edits them to add dumb, silly stipulations. Just so she can have a hearty laugh when she sees Ivan doing the things.[break]

This is basically @frosttalon's other half ("I love you man, no homo"). I'm going to refer to him as Rigby for the rest of this ad for simplicity, but name him whatever you wish. I recommend Rigby from Regular Show as his FC, since Ivan's FC is Mordecai from the same show and they'll have rad photos together, but that's definitely not a requirement. You can choose whatever FC you want. Ivan's twenty-three, so Rigby needs to be reasonably aged so that the two of them would have been grouped together growing up. Between twenty-one and twenty-four is probably a good range. Basically, you've got free reign on everything else. You can honestly make him however you wish, just keep in mind that him and Ivan have spent years practically attached at the hip. They need to click. Below are some points in my personal interpretation of this character, but you don't have to abide by them. Pick and choose the ones you like or ignore them all, it's up to you.[break][break]

- Had the most embarrassing... probably eight-year long crush on Ivan's sister, Chloe. Still does??[break][break]

- Wears inserts in his shoes to make himself two inches taller.[break][break]

- Absolutely appalling math skills. Ivan and him first met in middle school because Rigby would pay him to do his math homework. Ivan eventually took pity on the poor guy and actually worked with him and helped him understand so he wouldn't flunk tests.[break][break]

- What he lacked in his math classes, Rigby made up for ten times over in English. He barely put any effort into his school essays and was still the one the teacher bragged on incessantly. All of his high school English teachers swear they'll see his name on bookshelves one day. Paid Ivan back for math help by fixing the absolute trainwrecks that were his literary analyses and essays. Probably keeps an embarrassing book of poetry or something, who even knows.[break][break]

- Despite his prowess with words on paper though, he's not so silver-tongued when it comes to actually speaking. (Either that or it's the opposite and he's this amazing, persuasive public speaker type who could convince people to revolution within ten minutes).[break][break]

- Can. Not. Hold. His. Liquor. When they go drinking, Ivan almost likes to stay sober so he can both witness the amazing, stupid mess that lightweight Rigby is and make sure they don't end up on the news or in the emergency room. He's a happy drunk but also a reckless drunk to the extreme. Don't invite him to your apartment party unless you've got renter's insurance. HAS ZERO HANGOVERS THE NEXT DAY WHICH PISSES IVAN THE FUCK OFF.[break][break]

- Ivan's good luck charm. Rigby understands absolutely nothing about poker or gambling but can sit down at a blackjack table, bet blind, and kick up a winning streak that draws crowds.[break][break]

- Ivan and him have the most conflicting music tastes possible and make fun of each other constantly for it, but can still share the AUX cord like civilized human beings and tolerate one another's jams (but not without a comment every now and again). They both went through that "emo" music phase as middle-schoolers though, so when they're together and listening to tunes, they usually end up compromising with a playlist featuring those stereotypical 2000-2007 songs that everyone embarrassingly knows and once loved. Do they still lip-sync "Ohio Is For Lovers" or "You're So Last Summer" and grab at the air like their tortured, eighth-grade selves? You fucking bet.[break][break]

- They have a Bop-It and send it back and forth once they beat each other's (absolutely outrageous) high score. They've promised to name their firstborn child after whoever reaches 250 (maximum score) first.[break][break]

- Got matching tattoos when they were seventeen. Too embarrassed to show anyone.[break][break]

- LOTR nerds who learned the elvish language and will speak to each other in it when they need a "code" - they especially like to do this around Chloe, since it pisses her off.[break][break]

- Live together. Best roomies in the world. Get super high and talk about ghosts/aliens while sat on the floor in their kitchen, watching their Pizza Rolls bake in the oven. Neither of them know how to cook, or really clean, and Chloe is absolutely disgusted when she comes over (she has broken in a time or two to clean and cook horrible meals for them).

[break][break]
@frosttalon is a disgusting romantic, who believes 100% in fate and destiny. And I'm totally into this idea where there's someone from his childhood/high school years that he still thinks about all the time. And, even if they don't talk or haven't talked in years, and he isn't even sure where she is, he is absolutely sure he'll come across her again. Or maybe they're friends? Maybe she's already got a boyfriend? Maybe she was this forward little girl who asked him out in first grade, kissed him on the monkey bars, and then they broke it off in the same fucking day. Maybe they rarely talked after that. Got into separate friend-circles or whatever. Maybe he asked her out to Junior Prom, but maybe he was too much of a weirdo. Her friends were like "lmao wtf who the f is this", so she declined. Or maybe they remained paper-thin, fair-weather friends throughout school? Maybe they're both architect/math nerds and reconnected in college?[break][break]

Honestly, I'm willing to play with a million ideas here. They don't even have to develop romantically, if you don't want them to. I just love the idea of a person being stuck in the back of Ivan's mind for years and years. The one who got away, and the one he thinks he's going to marry one day and shit. Because he's fucking weird. But it doesn't have to work out. It doesn't have to be "destined in the stars", and Ivan can eventually learn that. But it'd be fun no matter what way we did it.

[break][break]
LYSANDER BLYTHE's quirk is that he is able to withdraw an entire exoskeleton of metal armor. I love the idea that he has a sibling whose quirk is that they're able to control metal. Like metal bending, or like Magneto from X-Men. So that they can completely control Lysander when he's in his metal armor. Lysander never knew who his father was, but his mother was an abusive POS, so this sibling would need to be a daughter/son of Lysander's father. They could have SOMEHOW found each other? But I think it'd be more interesting if they didn't know each other at all until they first meet. Maybe don't even piece together that they're half-siblings until later. [break][break]

Lysander is a cop, so I think it would be interesting if his sibling was a Guild Member. That would be fun. But honestly, make her/him whatever class you wish.

This is DANE WAYLAND's rival. Outwardly, at least, he's a very well-put-together man. Solid, smart, smooth and polite. Sensible... charming... the whole shebang. Everything and more a crime boss would want in a right-hand man, basically. Whether or not that's just a facade or whatever, is completely up to you.[break][break]

He was pretty much Dino's replacement when Dino "died". Is Dane's partner, or (if you don't like that) then at least was at some point in the past (I could easily see this guy getting "promoted" from Dane, lmao). Dane's father likes him more than he likes Dane (though that isn't saying much tbh). He trusts more to this guy than he does Dane. He's probably just a little better at Dane at pretty much everything. (Just a little more handsome, a little more charming, the tiniest bit better in a knife or fist-fight, you name it.... this dude is just slightly better than Dane.) He and Dane have this snarky hate for each other that's veiled thinly and poorly with half-assed, sarcastic politeness. But I could see it being a love/hate thing, too, like...... they actually do work well together as partners, but Dane just... [clenches fist].... really kinda hates him, y'know? And it's def mutual. But it's the kind of hate where you enjoy hating each other... if that makes sense? Kinda like... "I hate you so much, but I wouldn't let anyone kill you... because then it wouldn't be fun anymore." I hate you so much, but who knows, if we got drunk, I might duet with you at karaoke. But don't try and upstage me or it'll end in a knife-fight you always do that you prick where the fuck DOYOUGETOFF?[break][break]

An idea I had, too, was that it's kinda assumed that Dane would inherit the Wayland name/faction when Antonio dies (since Dino, Dane's older brother is presumed dead). But Antonio and Dane have never been particularly friendly with one another, so what if this person was actually — unknown to Dane — set up to succeed Antonio? If Dane found out about that, holy FUCK, things would get wild! Dane would go BESERK. But just an idea, by no means required.[break][break]

Luck Gandor is a suggested face claim just because he's an absolute FOX, but choose whoever you like.

This is ROGER MCCREADY's former lover. I will refer to her as Talin, but you name her whatever you wish. Roger's bisexual, so you can even make this character a male, if you wish it. They were together for many years, maybe even engaged at one point, but eventually came to the conclusion that love wasn't what they had. They got along super, super well, and understood each other more than any other person ever had and likely ever will. But it was almost like they were the same person and although they had an uncanny harmony, they woke up one day and decided it wasn't actually love. They still remain really great friends. Extreme confidants. Probably sleep with each other every once in awhile if they're both single. Talin is always welcome wherever Roger is. [break][break]
Roger's quirk when projecting feelings can sometimes be unintentionally accompanied by images/memories. For example, if he's trying to calm someone, or some Pokemon, who is going beserk, they might incidentally see a glimpse of Talin comforting Roger after a nightmare or something. I like to imagine Talin is a lot of his memories, when he's trying to project harmony, peace, calm, etc. She's an integral part of him. Even if it didn't work out between them, they're still really close. I can see her being a source of insecurity in any of Roger's future relationships. Roger probably holds any potential lover to the standards this woman left for him, which may make new relationships hard for both him and the other person.

[break][break]
This is ROGER MCCREADY's little sister and brother. The sister is 24yrs old and the brother is 21yrs old. Those are fixed ages. I've named the sister Hannah and the brother Simon, but you can change those. Their last name should either be McCready or Castleberry. You can honestly make them however you wish, personality and class wise, so long as you read and understand Roger's history. The McCready/Castleberry parents were a bit... idk. The kids were signed up for all sorts of sports and clubs and treated kind of like tokens to be bragged about. Trophy cases in the living room kinda thing. Roger got sick of this as an angsty teen and got the heck out of there after years of being a little punk. Hannah and Simon both stayed and finished growing up there, but however they turned out is completely up to you.[break][break]

Personally, I like to imagine Hannah as being a bit wild. And Simon being a cold snob (maybe went professionally into something like dance, and ended up being a douche and got injured and doesn't know what to do with his life now becuase he made dance his life?? Lol). But again, you're free to do whatever. Anything that could land them in Roger's lap, where he makes them work on the ranch or something would be amazing.
