- What You Don't Know
-- ◘» Lucien is often seen practicing or walking through the circus tents alone with the utmost grace and composure. He’s rather reserved and dislikes speaking more than a couple words at a time, but that doesn’t necessary mean that he isn’t a curious one. Like a moth to a burning light, beauty draws the young man in; triggering a tendency to touch the subject of splendor without any thought. It’s very hypocrital, but he dislikes physical contact given by those who aren’t really close to him. Due to his background, he enjoys playing games, music, and dancing. The performer is very wordlessly charming in front of others, always finding some way into the hearts of those around him. It may not seem like it, but he constantly worries over others like a fretful mother hen. He enjoys listening rather than speaking, but will offer a quiet word or act of encouragement when he deems it right. Despite his way of actions and stride, he’s rather jaded and regards himself as “disgraceful” and “repulsive” and works harder towards his goal of redeeming the honor his adopted father had filched away from him.
-- ◘» The story of Lucien, no, Masahiko before he was kidnapped into Europe has been mixed up in the years. Some say that he was a forsaken Japanese prince,others believe that he was a demon that once lurked through the streets of his hometown, but alas, one is here to tell you the true past of a gentle boy named Masahiko. His mother was a geisha, though prostitutes regard themselves as such, only the informed know that their sex and romantic life is distinct from their professional ones. Yes, a successful geisha can entertain her patrons through music, dance, and conversation. His mother was just that, one of Gion, known to have the highest status of the hanamachis, however, the more proper and local term would be geiko. Sons of these women were usually abandoned or left at a Buddhist temple, yet, Masahiko was held dear to the mother no matter how many of her “sisters” would try to convince her otherwise. As Masahiko grew up, the women of the house were charmed by his refinement and loveliness as a whole so he was dressed, trained, and identified as a maiko but was kept as servant of the house. His childhood was hard, his airy crimson eyes caused many of the other children and adults to fret away from him calling the poor boy arrayed as a girl an akuma, but his sisters always found a way to cheer him up through games they taught him for his training.
Masahiko was content with his life, not really causing any trouble for his mother except when people came and threw rocks at him for his distinct trait that differed from everyone else. Until one day in his seventh year of life, he was abducted along with many other children by as he recalls it “the Evil Man of Blue”. He was one of the twelve children that managed to survive through gruesome journey to the West. Perhaps he should’ve gave up on life right then, but the rest that happened after they arrived is a blur. Masahiko was bought by a French Noblemen named Alston d'Évreux who seemed kind and almost fatherly at first, but when night dawned, he horribly abused young Masahiko in ways he wishes he could forget. The boy despised the man for his corrupted desires for him but acted as charming and with grace as he was brought up to be. Soon, Alston adopted Masahiko, cut his long hair and gave him the name Lucien d'Évreux, yet the nightly cruelty continued. However, in the morning and afternoon he showed Lucien the utmost care, offering him fine education. This went on for about four years until his “father” took him to see the acts of the magical Cirque des Hommes. The performances were like something he had never seen before, enchanted in each and own individual way—it seemed to take him into a reality far from what was his. And so he ran. He ran as far and fast as he could ignoring the screams and orders for him to come back, and that’s when he collapsed in the arms of the ringmaster. Tears fell quickly from the young adolescent’s eyes as he cried and begged in an emotional outburst of Japanese to let him plunge into the magical world that was the circus. The man seemed to understand and hid him away from Alston, a big risk that could've led the circus into its demise. Investigations were up in a frenzy for the Noblemen’s lost adopted son but the circus left town to venture off the next one and no one paid much attention to it. His eyes and black hair earned the name Erebos, the greek god that personified darkness and he’s been in Cirque des Hommes ever since.
