BIOGRAPHY:Philip has been the Emperor since he ended the so-called ‘savage ages’ roughly fifty years ago and developed the coven system.
He claims that his family was killed from the use of wild magic sixteen years ago, leaving him the only guardian of his nephew Hunter.However, this is a lie as his family was murdered roughly 25 years ago by his brother Alexander when he purposefully sabotaged an experiment with Titan's Blood by replacing it with Fool's Blood.
Due to this incident, his face and body are heavily marred with green 'rot' and reddish brown crevices and holes.The Fool's Blood illness has corrupted his form as well, making his physical and mental health unstable. It allows him above-average strength and the ability to 'melt' and change, however it comes at the price of a very weak heart and constant pain physical pain. If distressed too much he may lose control of his form and become a large animal-like monster that operates purely on base thoughts and desires.The 'curse' was able to be kept under control by consuming Palismen, though he has recently been persuaded to try alternate medication methods, to various success, meaning he no longer consumes or takes Palismen.He has been on the Isles since 1646I will not roleplay 'canon' Belos but I do also roleplay as Elsewhere/Elsewhen era Philip version of my specific Belos. He has his own tagBelos' Headcanon Tag

BIOGRAPHY:The rough and petulant brother of Philip, also known as Belos. He died twenty-five years ago after he switched the Titan's Blood out with Fool's Blood at the last minute, causing an explosion that led to Belos' 'curse', Alexander's own mutation, and the brutal death of Belos' entire Boiling Isles family as well as many castle staff.The stress of his transformation and his rampage caused him to have a heart-attack which is what ultimately killed him.However, due to some odd magic fluctuations around the Castle he has been 'miraculously' revived, though since his deception and attempt to kill both himself and his brother, the two are estranged and Belos does not wish to see him.He is currently attempting to treat his addictions in hopes that he can prove to Philip he has changed, and see him again.Alexander's Headcanon Tag

BIOGRAPHY:The first and only Grimwalker made by Belos, Hunter comes from the combined DNA of Alexander and Adonis Clawthorne. He is loyal to his uncle Belos, and genuinely believes he knows what's best and what he's doing, but as with any teenager, he does often rebel against his guardian and go behind his back to do things he knows Belos wouldn't approve of.Unlike in canon, because he is the first and only of his kind, and due to Belos being a much more lax hands-off guardian, Hunter is rather spoiled and can often come across as entitled or demanding.He has a deep interest in Wild Magic, though he fears it just as much and has recently become extremely fascinated with insects, particularly bees and wasps.Despite the rather laid-back and almost egotistical personality that he tries to portray to both enemies and allies alike, when in private or with someone he particularly trusts he can be shown to be far more serious and melancholy much like the Emperor. However, he's also shown to have an extremely short temper that has led to frequent issues and violent outbursts, similar to ones that Alexander had as a child.He is currently attempting to curb these self-destructive and damaging tendencies, and is currently not allowed any sharp objects beyond silverware without direct supervision due to his past history of stabbing and self-harm.Hunter's headcanon tag

BIOGRAPHY:_{Yes I know this is technically an OC, but they're based off my Belos/Philip so I'm counting them under canon-based}Damien is a Grimwalker made by Alexander and an unknown helper using one of Philip's bones, similar to how Hunter was made.They were made out of pure and simple loneliness and spite, with Alexander having felt replaced by Hunter and having a downward mental spiral over the fact that Belos did not wish to see or interact with him in any way.Currently, no one other than Alexander and whomever helped him knows they exist, and they have no knowledge of the world outside the room they are kept locked away in. They do, however, know they are a Grimwalker of Alexander's brother and some of the reasons why they were made as Alexander let it slip at some point when he was drunk.It is unknown when they were created, or how Damien is already seemingly in their teens despite having to have been created within the time frame of Alexander's revival.Damien's Headcanon Tag

Despite being head of illusions and very much involved in his appearance he has very poor vision.He can see a small bit, and tends to enhance his visuals with his magic, but he absolutely refuses to wear glasses of any kind due to vanity. He is never seen without being in the latest styles and fashions, either.Adrian's Headcanon Tag

BIOGRAPHY:Alador is the co-ceo of blight industries along with his wife, Odalia. He cares for his wife and children but until recently was mostly passive and let Odalia take the lead, assuming she knew and would do what was best for their children.However, after realizing that Amity and the twins were genuinely unhappy with the way things were around the house, and recognizing that he could not always just stay in his lab with his Abominations eating Hex Mix, he has tried to involve himself in their lives more and stand up for their decisions.Unfortunately, he is not always aware of social constructs or ideals, and thus can be seen as awkward or uncaring without meaning to.(NOTE: Whether or not he is actually divorced from Odalia depends purely on the Odalia in question and their preference. By default they are still married, though.)Alador's Headcanon Tag
