Username: Several7s

Name: Aiden the Viper

Age: 20

Gender: Male

Appearance: He's a bit on the scruffy side, with dark stubble and shaggy brown hair that hangs in front of his brown eyes. He's tall and muscular, often wears greens and browns to blend in with the forest, and is often smiling.

Backstory: He was the lesser-known brother of Prince Philip, and never very happy with his position in life. He always preferred to be able to roam the forests freely, without an escort. Having to always use proper manners and attend stuffy banquets made him feel trapped. Add to that the fact that it was impossible to find anyone at court who wanted to be friends with him for anything more than the money or power it might give them and he was pretty much stuck. To make matters worse, his parents began searching for a bride for him to marry- something he wasn't at all interested in doing. So he ran away. He'd been with Robin Hood's Merry Men for about a year when the curse struck and he loved it. Then the curse came and they ended up in Storybrooke. Aiden was stuck in a fancy lifestyle with the constant feeling that he didn't belong. When the curse was broken, he finally realized what was wrong with it and went back to his friends in Robin Hood's group. Not too long after, he found a girl running through the forest. She introduced herself as Seraphina and explained that she was being chased by a woman who was trying to kill her. Aiden took her back to camp and introduced her to the others, offering her a safe place to stay. She was quiet and shy for a while, but eventually began to open up and enjoy the company of the Merry Men. After staying for a few weeks, she asked Aiden to teach her how to use knives. He agreed and they got to know each other quite well during the lessons. The two fell in love and Aiden protected her each time a new threat arose in Storybrooke. Then she was kidnapped and taken across the town barrier. Aiden attempted to follow, but the barrier wouldn't allow him to pass. He was trapped and she was gone.

Personality: He likes to joke around, constantly smiling and enjoying himself. He takes danger very seriously, however and you can always tell when he's gotten serious about something. The smile drops right off his face, replaced with furrowed brows and a slight frown. He doesn't like to be in a position of power- the responsability weighs on him and he knows he's not cut out for leading. He can take charge of a situation, but does better acting alone or under someone else's leadership. He doesn't like being forced into things, though, and prefers to be allowed to live the way he wants. He's a kind guy with a sweet side that comes out when he lets his guard down. He loves to laugh and is a social person, so if he doesn't have friends or people he feels safe talking to, he ends up getting kinda depressed. He believes everything is more fun when done in groups, but he does know that some things need to be done alone. He knows how to act royal, but doesn't like doing it. If it's completely necessary, he will, but it always feels like a facade.

Magic/Powers: N/A

Weapon of Choice: Knives. He was always talented with them.

Strengths: Aiden is kind and helpful. He's the kind of theif who would be polite to you while stealing your goods. He's also incredible with his knives. He's mastered the art of moving mostly unseen and unheard through forests.

Weaknesses: He's terrible at hiding his frustration and annoyance. He doesn't like to hurt people and will find ways around it most times, if he can. He's also pretty bad at lying.

Greatest Fear: Being trapped in a life he doesn't want. He's lived like that before and never wants to go back.

Insecurities: He often fears that his friends will find out who he is and shun him for it. They believe in robbing the rich to help the poor and he's exactly the kind of person they would normally target. He doesn't want them to treat him differently.

Loved Ones: His friends with the Merry Men and Seraphina.

Realm They're From: Storybrooke

Fandom They're From: Once Upon a Time

Token: A small leather pouch that he got from his first theft. He kept it as a reminder that he could be more than a pampered prince.

Anything Else: His relationship with Philip was never really a good one. His brother was a prince and Aiden was never cut out to be one. They weren't enemies, but they were never close either.
