Welcome to Gaia! ::

MENTAL/EMOTIONAL

Personality Glaucus is a romantic, sad and true, he doesn’t always have reasons to back up his beliefs, and he has faith enough to believe not everything has to be explained. He is generally a kindhearted and likeable guy, but there are times when he snaps. All in all he is an old soul, fit for a society long since dead, and society tends to reject those who can’t conform to the here and now.

Strengths He reserves all judgment, under the firm belief in his religion, only god can pass judgments. He is usually calm cool and collected, not one to freak out easily. He does not get confused easily either, and has somewhat advanced understanding of the ways of science, as well as a lot of common sense. Glacus is incredibly defensive of his beliefs and values

Flaws he holds on to his faith in the Roman Catholicism tightly and tends to snap when questioned on it. Glacus tries to be sympathetic, and understanding and see the bigger picture, but sometimes even he can’t. Glaucus is a terrible liar. He comes clean in the same instance that he lies, his mouth twitches noticeably when lies making it even worse.

Other He loves music, as soon as he hears a song by any band and he likes it he goes on an obsessive mission to find out everything he can about the said band and song. He loves the bands Tristania and Lacuna Coil well enough to name all the band members off memory and every song they produced on every album in chronological order.

Interest/Hobbies Reading, writing, Drawing like fiend, swimming, listening to music, he loves European history and aquatic biology. He is a History major in college, studying to teach medieval sciences and art education.

LIKES: Swimming, Metal music, drawing, thinking alone, listening to the rain, sour stuff, soda, (he is taking an oath to temperance and does not drink more about this in the background).
DISLIKES: Religiously Intolerant people, Judgmental people, and those who perverse artwork.

History
His old friends call him Glock, or Schules; he grew up in a middle class home, with one older sister.
His father was an engineer for a popular aircraft company and, for the most part he got along with him, he dragged his father to heavy metal and rock concerts and he went with a little coercion. That is until recently, his father picking up alcohol became unpredictable and violent tempered, he’d never hit anybody, But Glaucus was secretly afraid of him.

He did very well in school and has a bright future ahead of him and he and his family where always closely knit. In Fact he talked it over with his mother about the job application he got on delivered to his dorm. And she agreed it was a good idea. His mother was an artist, by training, and she helped him with his style and always encouraged his ideas and drawings, no matter how bizarre others said they were. She helped him start drawing by pushing and encouraging him to try to copy a manikin, he did that once and then he began absorbing ideas, and learning how he could make his own style. She like Augusta has always stood by him.

His older sister was inspiration to him, and she was gifted with good looks, as she has had a many guys stalk her with romantic intentions, and Intelligence and great advice. She was extremely successful at everything she put her mind too, and extremely helpful when it came to things he didn’t like to talk about. She and him could have conversations about anything, and they would last for hours. When Glacus would ask for help on a math concept, he would seek out Augusta. Glacus was more into history and art, while his sister was into Math and English, and they helped each other. One famous example was when Augusta was writing her Final research paper for her history class, she had him read it over, and then gives her a score on it then she had him check every single one of her resources. They both were on the swim team together, and they got together fine, and unlike many siblings, they fought very rarely.

He got certified for both lifeguarding and CPR and worked at a club he swam for in the summer in his sophomore year of high school. He has since re-certified his C.P.R. every year, and his life guarding one once.

When he was confirmed to the catholic faith in sixth grade, he became inspired and ever faithful in the Roman Catholic Church. He loved the history, both the brutal and holy parts of it, the fact that it was the scrap of medieval time that still remained mostly unchanged. There are parts of the church that bother him, and he could make a list, but he would rather not. Throughout high school, countless people have attacked his beliefs, giving him the usual “you rot in the ground when you die” routine. He usually held out strong, and never snapped. He defended his faith on principle and his interpretation, not history’s cruelties and the copied views of another teacher.

Throughout his life he was always entranced by history, romanticism, and fantasy. But nothing captured his interests quite like merfolk. He would draw them endlessly and always wondered what exactly it would be like. But he let that die out of him when one of his college professors opened his binder and told him to wake up, that this was the real world. He still had the back of his mind all of his ideas, too weird to fit in with his “real life.” He continued on Sketching and drawing but he hid them from everybody.

Family
Father Augustin Masculli- Glacus used to get along with him, but they have had shaky confrontations many times. For a while he thought he could handle it, then the threats came, then insults and the “inquisitions” about his faith, his father slowly but surely, completely alienated himself from Glaucus.

The Third Change- Horns, scales on legs and arms, beginnings of a tail. Beginnings of Arm fins and flippers

I can barely face myself in the mirror. I thought I was to turn into a merman, and live with relana as merpeople in happiness. Why then, do I have horns? or what's worse, why do I have claws, and this.. this...tiny tail? This was not supposed to happen like this. What is to become of me?
