silas benjamin davison-winn
bennie or si are his most common nicknames, but silas is pretty much the go-to when calling
for him.
male
twenty-one years old
old enough to bleed, old enough to breed, old enough to crack a brick in your teeth while you
sleep. (actually, all twenty one means to si is that he's finally old enough to buy his own booze)
bisexual
says he can't limit himself to half the world's pleasures.
pro-drug, pro-slavery
being an addict, criminalizing drugs would make life not only inconvenient but downright
difficult for silas, so he happily tosses his hand in with the people who support drugs, plus his
job is based around drugs and a company/family who presides over the business of selling
them. his view on slavery is much more passive; he's never really known any slaves for more
than a few moments and their lives haven't really crossed his path much. while he feels there
might be something a little wrong with treating human beings like that, he figures if something
was really wrong with it, someone would have spoken up and changed it by now. he keeps his
head low in politics for the most part, though, he doesn't really feel it's his place.
gentle is usually the first word that comes to mind when describing silas. he's a kind young
man who is incredibly empathetic. while quiet, he is also quick to speak up for the issues he
really truly feels something for and he never hesitates to cut his own happiness for that of
others. silas is endlessly intuitive, and very good at reading people, but also very prone to
becoming far too attached to them in the end. trusting too easy, and falling in love easier,
silas has a bleeding heart tendency that nothing short of shoots him in the foot on the regular.
very good at putting on a sweet face, he lives by the 'if i've got nothing to lose, then i'll give
myself up to everyone else who deserves it' mentality, which more often gets him hurt than
helps his cause. he's also prone to bottling emotions and holding a grudge, as well as giving
too much of himself away. perhaps it's his masochistic tendencies or just that he doesn't
really feel as though he has any worth. it's not a pretty thing, and in the end it usually writes
his downfall, but if there's one thing silas is truthful with himself about, it's his low self esteem.
