Irving Macbeth
"Pray for me 'cause I have lost my faith in holy wars
Is paradise denied to me 'cause I can't take no more
Has darkness taken over me, consumed my mortal soul
All my virtues sacrificed, can Heaven be so cruel?β
[Within Temptation - The Truth Beneath The Rose]

|Appearance|
Irving is about 6'1" and has a slender yet muscular build, courtesy of his years of dance. His hair is fairly long and dark brown in colour. He used to dye it to hide the fact that it was turning prematurely grey, but doesn't bother anymore, now okay with the heavy silver streaks lacing through it.
His eyes are dark blue in colour, and framed by very large lashes. While he is rather handsome, Irving also looks much older than he actually is due to the amount of stress put on him by his life. He has fairly pale skin, mostly because he never actually goes out in the sunlight, and it doesn't have many markings on it - aside from the occasional bruise from dance practise.

|Personality|
Irving is a rather reserved man who has a sensitive side hidden under his bristly exterior. He is very loyal - or at least he tries to be, but then ambition clouds his way. He wants power and glory, but simply doesn't know how to achieve it, so he seeks to steal it from others. Irving doesn't have strong decision-making skills, and is often extremely fickle. He is also very easily influence by others, especially by his wife.
Irving does not try to commit evil deeds, rather they simple end up being the only option he can see. He feels extremely guilty over any immoral deed he commits, and often tries to convince himself to follow a virtuous path. In the end, though, he always ends up falling back onto the path of evil.
|History|
Irving had a fairly decent life up to now. He grew up in a fairly wealthy, upper-middle class family, and had a very good childhood. However, as he grew older and school and life became more difficult, he found that he never managed to meet his parents expectations. Someone was always better, more worthy, more important than he was. The worst of these was his cousin Claude. No matter what he did, Claude did it better, and Irving found himself standing in the shadow of his light.
Instead of going to college, Irving decided to study dance after highschool. It was the one thing he excelled at, where he was better than any of his cousins or friends. He made quite a name for himself, and danced at a few large performances, but it was never enough. And now, he began to notice that his body was beginning to fail him. His limbs were sore, his joints stressed and aching, and he found he just couldn't dance as well as he used to.
When the three psychics approached him, Irving thought they were joking. But now the thought that he could be better than Claude, that he could take the spotlight, was ingrained in his head. Irving decided to go to college and take a couple courses in politics. He ran against Claude in the last election, but was beaten miserably. The only path he sees now, at his wife's urging, is to murder Claude. And yet, he's terrified. Can he do it? He doesn't know.
|Theme Song|
Temposhark - Don't Mess With Me
"How it all began
If truth be told
Had a master plan
Now I rule the world
Took 'em by surprise
Worked my way uphill
They looked into my eyes
I became invincible
No one
can stop me
for only I am in control
If you want me you better contact my people
In my crown, I am king
I love their endless worshiping
I am raw, a dinosaur
But I will never be extinct
So don't mess with me
I'll shoot you down
Don't mess with me"
