Name: Mikhail Ilyin
Age: Appears 24, though he's approaching the century mark. (But keeping close track of one's age is so dreary!)
Gender: Male
Group: Almost full Nightmare (just a tad of that embarrassing Dream blood back in the forgotten bits of the family tree.) Much to the chagrin of his family, he'll consort -and more- with almost anyone.
Occupation: Darling, who needs an occupation when you have an inheritance?
Appearance:
Mikhail is of slender build, though he bears some traces of lean muscle. He's quite fair-skinned, with strawberry-blonde hair and pale blue eyes to match. Years of good breeding have given him slim, delicate facial features. The only time he would even think of leaving behind his usual modern, well-tailored clothing is when he's "on the chase" after less-than-noble prey. He stands at an even 6'0".
Personality: Mikhail is the youngest son of two wealthy Nightmare nobles. Though he was born on their estate just outside Chimera, he's an easily-bored wanderer who never seems to settle in the same home for more than a year or so. Impetuous, selfish, and narcissistic, he's prone to flights of fancy and cheeky behavior that never quite steps out of the bounds of proper social conduct. Mikhail is a smiling hedonist with the wallet to back up his expensive taste. His sexual appetite is bottomless and impartial - Nightmares or Dreams, rich or poor, male or female, it hardly matters. (As long as they're lovely, of course!)
Mikhail is also quite easily frustrated from his years of being spoiled. He's quick to throw a sulk over the behavior of others, and his own failures haunt him long past their end. He's nearly obsessed with competition and victory, and will use any means to achieve his end.
Still, on the surface, Mikhail floats easily through life, enjoying the perks his wealth and good looks allow to the best of his ability.
Powers: Mikhail is the Nightmare of a lover's infidelity. As such, his ability to get what he wants from interpersonal interaction is finely-tuned (though this is more skill than power.) He can also sense a lie, though he cannot make out the truth behind it, or pinpoint which precise statement in a discussion is the lie he feels. Because of his noble upbringing, he's a skilled, graceful fencer, archer, and equestrian. He's also more intelligent than he'll let on.
Other Information: Mikhail will profess to be "religious" when in good company, though this could not be further from the truth. He has three older brothers, leaving him with few to no familial expectations. He speaks fluent Russian, but has managed to purge all but the slightest traces of an accent.
((And yes, he is making the cuckold horns in his portrait!))
