Appearance:
William is someone who is practically impossible to lose in a crowd. To start with, he's tall, clearing six foot easily. But even if he was average height, the mass of dark brown curls that sits atop his head would ensure that he stood out from the norm. His skin is a light brown, dotted with darker brown freckles. He tans incredibly quickly, his skin appearing to darken at the slightest ray of sun. His freckles never seem to fade though, always darkening along with the rest of his skin. His skin itself is always smooth, everywhere on his body. His face is rectangular, his jaw soft and his forehead rounded. His lips are full. His eyes are big, around, and a warm brown, matching the splatter of freckles across the bridge of his nose. His build is slim and lean. He can't be described as muscular, but he keeps himself in good physical health, and it shows. He has the same metabolism as every other boy his age- able to eat what and as much as he wants, but never seeming to put on a pound. His regular workouts keep him toned, but also gives him a rather large appetite.
death doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints, it just takes.
Personality:
At first, nobody would expect Will to be a medic. He can regularly be found training with one weapon or another, and he's become pretty handy with them. He's hot-tempered, and he doesn't like to be antagonised. He's not exactly proud of his temper, and he's trying to work on it, but his progress is slow. He bears a chip on his shoulder, one he doesn't like to acknowledge. He has a huge desire to prove himself to everyone he meets, whether or not he needs to prove himself to them. He spent so long trying to prove to people that he was more than his heritage, and he can't unlearn that compulsion to prove himself. He needs to be better than everyone expects. He's almost constantly afraid that everyone sees him as inferior. Combine this with his temper, and Will can be... volatile, to say the least.
But it can't be denied that Will makes an excellent medic. When it comes to helping people, he's hugely focused and dedicated. He's intelligent, and that always seemed to shine through as much as anything else about him. He's very good with his hands, able to handle the smallest tools with precision, yet also wield a sword and throw daggers with the same hands. He knows in his heart that he is a medic, not a warrior. His instincts are never to charge or be in the front lines. His instincts are to defend those he loves- and when it comes to doing that, he's more than willing to put his life on the line. He's taken it upon himself to look after his sister. He knows she's trying to look after him, but he already failed to protect her once already. He's not letting it happen again.
Skills:
Will has trained himself to be almost entirely ambidextrous, allowing him to work with both hands at once. He's handy with a sword, and also a needle. He keeps himself in good shape, so his stamina is usually at a good level.
Oddities:
Ruffles his hair while he's thinking and always double knots his shoelaces
Likes:
Like any good medic, Will likes helping people. He also loves learning new things and could spend hours reading if he had enough time. He does, however, spend plenty of time training. His talents lie in swordplay especially. He likes fresh fruit and homegrown plants, probably thanks to his sister, who he spends a lot of time with.
Dislikes:
Will holds no love for the Red Queen and the Daggers. He could take or leave fish but will eat it if there's nothing else to eat. He hates being sick or being injured as it leaves him unable to train. He hates nightmares. He doesn't care for feeling weak or powerless. He hates being spoken down to by people older than him, or those who think they have more life experience than him. He hates being treated by a child and his sister is the only person who can get away with it, and he doesn't even tolerate it all that much from her.
i imagine death so much it feels more like a memory, is this how it gets me?
History:
As far as anyone knew, the Joscelyn family was a happy one. They had one beautiful daughter already, so when her mother fell pregnant again, nobody had any reason to suspect anything was wrong. But when their son was born, the rumours began. He was a lot paler than their daughter, Andei. And as he aged, that didn't change. It eventually emerged that Will was the product of an affair. As a result, Will was regularly referred to as "the bastard son". He was constantly spoken down to and treated as a second class citizen- which only gave Will more of a drive to prove them wrong. He spent all of his free time buried in his books, teaching himself medical basics, followed by more elaborate techniques. He also read up on swordplay, but didn't ever practice it- his first mistake.
Because when the attack came, he was woefully unprepared, and he wasn't even all that aware of it. He fully intended on running- but when he saw one of the soldiers going for his sister, he saw red. He wasn't even entirely sure where he got the sword, but he found himself holding one. Considering he'd never fought before, he held his own surprisingly well. But then one of the soldiers hit him in his temple with the butt of their sword, and he hit the floor. He doesn't know what happened while he was out- only that his sister has hardly spoken since. Ever since they found the Shadow Children, Will has a part of every single day with a sword in his hand, determined not to make the same mistake again.
