~~~Family Information~~~
Father: Nathaniel James Sullivan, 41 years old. Although his family wasn’t the richest of them, he was still well-off. His family was well respected, well known, well praised, and few ever had issues with any of the members. Nathaniel’s father, grandfather, and great grandfather were all in the army. Later on, Nathaniel would join the list of generational soldiers. High School was a breeze for Nathaniel, as he often studied during the afternoon, and went off with friends at night. He never got bused until just shy of his eighteenth birthday- he was placed in a holding cell and kept there until morning, but his parents were livid beyond belief. Instead of letting him return to the regular high school, he went to a private co-ed school. It was there that, around his first year of college, he met Elizabeth Maria Stark. For almost an entire year, Nathaniel kept trying to get her attention, make him his-- And despite the fact that the feelings were quite returned, Elizabeth was playing hard to get. As a dance at the school approached, her little “game” came to an end when he asked her to go with him. They instantly clicked, and it wasn’t long before emotions ran high. Within another two years, they were engaged. Around the time Nathaniel was 24, the triplets were born. By the time the triplets were seven, he was already enlisted in the army, and was deployed around the time of their birthdays.
Once he came home, around the time he was thirty six and five years later, it was almost as if he was a stranger in his own home. Although his twelve year old daughter rushed to greet him, his two sons simply distanced, going into their rooms. He was quite confused, and questioned Elizabeth about it… only to find out that, even though she only told positive things, the twin boys felt abandoned and resented him for it… even five years later, Seth still didn’t show any signs of letting go of the resentment, although his brother had. Unfortunately, Seth also didn’t listen to any rules or guide lines being put into place, and several arguments happened, most of which Seth would sneak out of the house and not return for a few days…
If anything, Seth tried staying at school as long as possible, and so his grades went above and beyond. When he wasn’t home, he was with friends, and he seemed to think his friends were more important than his family, so he doesn’t come home, basically until the cops are called…. All over the resentment Seth carries towards Nathaniel.


Mother: Elizabeth Maria Sullivan, 41 years old. Although Elizabeth’s family was fairly well off, they didn’t compare to the Sullivan’s. The Stark family was newer to the community, and seemed to be a nervous, unsure bunch for the first while. They attended the neighborhood gatherings, but seemed shy to socialize with those around them. Elizabeth, however, was the first one to break that silent vow- Once she was attending the college, she became a bit of a social butterfly. She was able to make friends relatively easy, and often surrounded herself with people. However, it wasn’t until she took notice of Nathaniel James Sullivan that she had emotions outside of family and friendship. She had never really dated before, but she sort of made it into a game- Catch me if you can… Once asked to the dance, it was “game over”, so to speak. They started dating, and were engaged within two years. Around the time that Nathaniel and herself were 24, the triplets were born. However, by the time they were seven, NAthaniel was called into action since he was enlisted into the army. She worked hard to keep things somewhat peaceful and running smoothly, but it was certainly hard with three seven year olds. Her daughter was the cheerful type, often asking questions about their father, and what he was like. The boys had, in the beginning, but refused to even hear a topic about their father within the first year. They resented him, they were mad at him, and they felt extremely abandoned by him.
Despite Elizabeth’s best efforts, neither son cared for their father, and treated him rather poorly when he finally returned home after serving five years in the army. Although Elizabeth managed to calm Jesse down, the resentment and anger holds onto Seth quite strongly. Seth doesn’t exactly get along with his parents… In his youth, he would stay at school as long as possible, and stay at friends’ houses instead of coming home. The only real way to keep him home is to have the cops called, but even that started losing its effect. Due to his high and beyond good grades, he was able to enroll into Metric, and shows no signs of returning home after the school year.




Older twin brother:: Jesse Jeremiah Sullivan, 17 years old. Although the boys were quite competitive when younger, that seemed to fade once Nathaniel left for the army. At first, for the second year or so, the boys would stay up on Christmas, hoping that their father would walk in the door, dressed as Santa Clause. Once the hopes were dashed enough, the boys began sticking together rather than fighting over everything. They each tried to watch over their sister, but were also unsure of how to control their anger, resentment, and hurt.
When Nathaniel first returned, twelve year old Jesse would strictly avoid him, and if that wasn’t possible, he was plain out mean, sometimes even cursing Nathaniel out. Before they were to enter Metric, Jesse finally let go of some of the anger and resentment, recognizing that Nathaniel was now back, and that he was the man in charge of the household once again… but the realization and change of behavior actually created a wall between the two male twins, as Seth somewhat felt abandoned once more.
While they attend the same school, Jesse and Seth tend to try to avoid each other, unless their sister is with both of them-- The trio is often seen together, but the male twins avoid each other when their sister isn’t around.


Older twin sister: Iris Naomi Sullivan, 17 years old. Iris is usually considered the peacemaker, the level headed one. She is usually fairly cheerful, and usually seeks the positive side in everything. She knows her brothers don’t get along, especially once Jesse forgave their father… but she keeps hoping that the more time she forces them to spend together in her presence will make them learn to love each other again… although she has been trying this strategy for a long, long time. She is often seen with them together, but when it comes down to it, she prefers Seth’s company. They both have a passion for creating things, changing things, and often come up with new ideas together. Both major in make-up design, though Iris takes on culinary arts as well.
Unlike her brothers, Iris embraced the return of her father wholeheartedly, acting as though he had only left for a few months rather than five years. She was very close to their father, and often got angry, frustrated, and upset when she realized her brothers were being rather evil to their father. Even before his return, she kept a simple hope that he would one day walk right in the doors, as if he had never left. She always left the cookies and milk nearby the tree, and she always had at least one gift for him, hidden in the furthest back of the gifts. She never felt abandoned or disheartened, though no one could understand why she managed to remain so chipper. Even now, she remains extremely happy when she sees her family together, though seems slightly bothered by the fact Seth tends to avoid the family gatherings if he could help it.
