    [ history ]

        He was trouble since the day he was born. His mother almost died giving birth to him, and his life has been on an upward journey to bigger and better scores since then. The stealing began at age 8, when he briefly headed a gang of street urchins and used them to distract shop-owners while he pocketed as much as he could - first bread for his family and then larger, more expensive things he could sell for some coin instead. The scheming started then and never stopped.

        When he was 14, he pulled off the then-biggest heist of his young career, breaking into the home of a well-known inventor and stealing the man's prized work. He returned it a week later, just to prove he could, but his lookout failed to watch the road and both were caught by a passing guardsman. They held him for two days before letting him go, marking the first of countless times he would put his family through the ringer. But his benevolence disappeared that day along with his trust for other thieves.

        Pulling cons became a drug, a natural high that Lucian sought with increasing urgency. It was like a puzzle to him, figuring out where and when and how to obtain Object X, or how to make Mister Somethingorother do this exact thing he would otherwise never do. He loved the thrill of winning, of taunting the law and getting away with it. That it always wound up benefiting Lucian was just icing on the cake.

        Six years ago at 20, Lucian ran a high-profile heist on the docks, attempting to hijack a merchant ship stocked with precious goods. A swordfight ensued. Guns were fired. They got away, but the ship went down not far off the coast of Northport. Lucian Kinlan was presumed dead with the crew.

        Since then, he's been laying low, biding his time, rebuilding. Soon, he'll reappear in his brother's life as if six years have not passed, asking for favors as if he has't been dead this whole time. And this time, he'll have revenge on his mind.


    [ recent ]

        Lucian is not used to failure, and on the rare occasions when it happens, he will not let it go. The last time he failed, at 14, he made sure his lookout suffered twice the punishment he did. He is vengeful and tends to perceive others' actions as personal slights.

        Details would have to be hashed out, but I'd like for the Grimms to have had something to do with the ship going down in Northport. That was a big, big moment in his life and also forced him to spend six years slowly rebuilding (he probably had to spend a while recovering from injuries too). That's also six years' worth of major heists that he's had to let slip through his fingers. Lucian is not pleased and he's also not afraid. His reasoning, just because there's an entire pack of Grimms doesn't mean they're infallible. He's going to find their weak spot, not matter what it takes. The fact that he knows he's brilliant only makes him that much more determined.

        Once he catches wind of the wedding and of Rosalie, he's going to try to target her. He hasn't figured out quite how or what he'll do, but he'll see her as the weak link - or at least as the Grimms' weak spot.

        Depending on how the timeline works, he might try to wreak havoc at the wedding, or he might use the wedding as a way to scout things out (likely the latter). I'd like him to meet Switch first before attempting anything big, because Switch is going to very quickly become his sidekick and make him even more determined to pull his revenge thing off. It's also going to be weird, because he'll have to constantly battle his instinct to throw others under the bus to keep himself safe, and he might try to do that to Switch a couple times before realizing that that is absolutely not going to fly.


    [ personality ]

        Flightful. Always getting into trouble, always disappearing, always appearing at the most inopportune moments/when he needs something.
        Presumed dead for many years on one of his high-flying ventures.
        Great at playing the last-ditch attempt to get clean card to win his brother's help and sympathy.
        Always chasing his next big score (or, as he puts it, "one last score")
        Somehow, they (mostly, his family) always believe him.
        Smooth talker; charming in a seedy way.
        Whip smart and brilliant, but impulsive and has a temper.
        Competitive, vengeful, has a long memory for things that don't go his way.
        Can be dangerous because of that .
        Not prone to failure, so he almost enjoys the high of almost getting caught.

[ personality ]

She was afraid of nothing, if only because she knew nothing was quick enough to slow her down. Switch was irreverent to a fault, confident in her ability to outsmart, outrun and outlast anyone who told her to be otherwise. She welcomed a challenge, any challenge, and found them in Lucian. Their partnership worked because he cared less about how well she followed orders and more about how well she got the job done - no matter how she got it done - and they shared a love of schadenfreude and of pulling off the impossible. Theirs was a relationship of near-constant push and pull. She was only creature he had ever met smart enough and brilliant enough to match him, and he was the only man she ever found who she couldn't outsmart twice.
