Personality
Sebastian is dominant, spontaneously creative and extrovert. In grandeur of manner, splendor of bearing and magnanimity of personality. He is ambitious, courageous, dominant, strong willed, positive, independent, self-confident there is no such a word as doubt in his vocabulary, and he is self-controlled. Born a leader, either in support of, or in revolt against, the status quo. He is most effective when in a position of command, his personal magnetism and innate courtesy of mind bringing out the best of loyalty from subordinates. Sebastian much like Rose is uncomplicated, knowing exactly what he wants and using all his energies, creativeness and resolution to get it, as well as being certain that he will get whatever he is after. His peers know where they are with Sebastian. He thinks and acts bigger than others would normally dare; the ambitiousness of his schemes and idealism sometimes daunt his peers, his practical hardheadedness and ability to go straight to the heart of any problem reassures those who depend on him. If Sebastian is met with setbacks he thrives on the adversity.
On the whole his intentions for good, for he is strongly idealistic, humane, and beneficent. Sebastian has powerful intelligence and is of a broad philosophical, sometimes religious, turn of mind. He is fairly devout and sometimes becomes very obstinate in upholding traditional beliefs and will cling tenaciously, but with complete sincerity, to practices and doctrines which liberal thinkers regard as absurdly out-of-date.Appearance
Roxy stands at around about 6?3. He has medium brown hair, which is short in length, styled with short back and sides, being a little longer on top. His hair naturally curly, so when short small curls often become obvious. If he was to grow his hair, the curls would be more apparent.
Facial hair is optional with Sebastian who prefers to sport that 'in-between' look. He calls it 'acceptable stubble' in which case, the hair he allows to grow on his face is to the minimal and always groomed to perfection. Sebastian doesn't like a lot of facial hair but also doesn't favor that natural, clean shaven look as he believes it makes him look about twelve. Something in-between and tidy suits him perfectly.
Sebastian has a fairly creamy complexion, naturally, quite tanned. He has medium green eyes, that fit well with his olive type complexion. Sebastian is not ripped in muscles, but he does take care of himself and spends a lot of time on personal grooming and fitness. In no way, shape or form is he out of shape, but doesn't obsess too much about definition.
When it comes to clothing, only comfort will do. Sebastian would happily choose a pair of comfy, old, ripped out jeans over a brand new pair of suit pants. Of course, with work he does dress up a little more, opting for a darker shade in jeans and a shirt but would much prefer to live in baggy jeans, t-shirts and his slippers.
Sebastian may not have any special abilities to speak of but he has an array of personal achievements and capabilities.
For starters, he is quite the people person. Sebastian is extremely sociable, sincere and trusting. He tends to be able to use his social skills to his advantage, often bringing those around him out of there shells and indulging in such conversations in which they wouldn't necessarily place themselves in. He has such a warm nature that people instantly trust in him and often expose more then they usually would care to with a stranger.
His eagerness is admirable, this man can be knocked down a dozen times and will always get back up to try again. With a very optimistic and unbeatable outlook on life, he is good to have around when times get hard because he prides himself on uplifting the spirits of those around him.
Sebastian may not always be the sharpest tool in the shed, but he is in no way considered stupid. He may not be the best speller or the best person to come to with a math problem, but he is skilled in various ways. Sebastian is a know it all when it comes to mechanics, not just with cars but other machines to. As a teen he picked up an interest in computing and a passion for gadgets, often toying in robotics.
When it comes to computers, he's quick to detect problems and is able to figure out the problem, regardless of whether it means he has to get stuck into the inner contents of the machine to do it. Sebastian knows a motherboard like the back of his hand. Though he has never really extended out of the mechanical side of computing and technology, he is quite interested in learning other skills such as hacking and programming.
Sebastian Eoghan O'Riley was born on December 6th, 1978 in Dublin, Ireland to Ewan a pub owner and Mairi a telephone sales clerk.
He was bought up in a middle class family home, his parents worked every single day to simply provide for the rather large family. Sebastian was the 3rd eldest of 6 children, considering him as the middle child and because of this he was constantly shadowed by the others. In early life it didn't seem to show, but as he got older he seemed to be driven by desire and the need to prove to everyone else around him that he could stand out from the rest. Suffice to say, there was a lot of tension and competition in the O'Riley household, especially between the boys..
When Sebastian was coming up 16 years old, his mother was diagnosed with Cancer. The sad news caused problems within the house and completely effected the way in which it run and the children behaved. Sebastian was too proud to admit it at the time, but he struggled tremendously with his mother becoming sick and sure enough the cracks began to surface. His school grades plummeted and his focus flew out of the window, at one point he almost dropped out of school because he wanted to help look after his dear mother. It wasn't an option and his father made that clear, everything was going to work out.
Little was he aware at the time, his father Ewan had an ability, the abilitiy to heal others, not himself, but those around him, by removing the 'injured/affected' area from whomever he touched. Over the next several months it seemed his mothers cancer was 'healed' and his mother soon there after made a full recovery. However, he never really got the full insight on his fathers ability. Though Ewan could heal those around him, it came with a price..anything that he had taken from his target, appeared to inflict him in some way or another.
One summer evening when Sebastian had arrived home from med school. He was 21 years old now, with his first child and having chosen to settle down with his high school sweet heart a few years previous. They'd come from California, where Sebastian was now studying medicine. Sadly, what was supposed to be a happy family weekend turned into tragedy when the family discovered Ewan had passed away. After the autopsy report came back it was revealed there father had gotten Cancer, along with a fair few other terminal illnesses, which he'd likely 'taken' from those he'd tried to heal.
His fathers demise led to a huge wedge being formed between the family, siblings moving away from one another with no contact, partly through grief and partly through denial as the truth had now been revealed about what Ewan could do. The family split and even though Sebastian tried to keep it together, it was hard. More, so when Harry betrayed them all and went on to sell there fathers story.
Sebastian headed back home and continued with his studies until he was soon rewarded with a medical license. With the birth of his second child, things seemed to be looking up. But with every up came a down and that led to another loss. His eldest brother Tim died. This seemed to prompt so many questions from Sebastian who started to question everything. It turned out, Tim too was the same as his father and not only that, but now Rose.
He watched his baby sister struggle with her loss, struggle with her new ability and because of that Sebastian began to head down a completely different route. Sadly, another loss came in hand when Sebastian and his long term partner, Christine split. He spent a lot of time at work and having been together for years, having two children and still not being any step closer to becoming engaged, let alone married...she opted out.
His world fell apart, but thankfully with family at hand he was able to move on. He still got to see his boys, Alexander (11) and Brandon (6), not as often as he'd liked but enough to keep him happy to not take his case to the courts.
Sebastian continued to work in California at the Alameda Hospital in the Emergency Room, before being offered another placement in a completely different environment entirely. In late September 2011, Sebastian was hired by The Company to work as the Chief Medical Staff at there New York facility. Sebastian quickly accepted, finding this new role to not only answer many questions he'd held for so long but also opening a few new doors.
