About Michael/timeline:
Growing up, Michael and his twin were raised in a religiously strict household, the reason for their names being those of archangels. Their lives revolved around their church, living their lives by the 'Word of God'. Once he and his brother had reached the age of manhood their were allowed to leave their parent's home to start lives of their own. As twins they did not want to be far from each other, so they did not travel far, and found homes near each other. They found a place to work and were relatively happy on their own.
One late night they were ambushed and attacked. They were turned that night by the Eldest who had been watching them for a while. After regaining his senses, Michael, fascinated and horrified by his new abilities and sharp fangs, went to show his parents.
It took hours of explaining, but he finally got them to believe he was telling the truth-just as Remiel came after him. His brother was rendered unconscious, and moments later his own world went black.
He came to gradually, realizing he had been tied down by his own parents, left to die in the sun while they screeched prayers that their sons would reach Heaven, despite what had happened to them. As the sun rose, his body began to burn. He had passed out from the pain. When he came to, his brother's face was in his own, the only face he trusted. Both of them had been badly burned that day...
After that, the Eldest took them in, bringing them up to rule together.

Abilities/strengths:
As with all vampires he had increased strength, speed and senses. Unlike his brother, whose ability focuses on bending the mind of others, his ability fiddles with the emotions. People under his influence seem calmer even when he reveals his true self.

Weaknesses:
Since almost being burned alive, he hasn't been able to trust anyone except his brother. He's also extremely insecure about his burns, so he's constantly wearing long sleeves Compared to his brother, he's twisted, and without his brother around he can be near tyrannical.

Fears:
Being burned alive by the sun.
More than being "damned", he fears that any mate he might try to have will be disgusted by his "ruined" body.
