▌FEARS ▿

▌PERSONALITY ▿
Eros is, first and foremost, an introverted person who prefers the company of cats and historical text over people. But, he's by no means socially inept. On the contrary, his upbringing has left him with all the social grace expected of someone born into such a powerful family. And, he's naturally confident in himself, making it easy to play the part of the socialite when necessary without it being a mask. For the most part, what people see upon meeting him is what they get. But, of course, he is human and has his struggles. Eros is incredibly stubborn, backing down for almost no one, and can find himself rambling about things that interest him much to the annoyance of others. He's also deeply insecure about his identity, though one would have to be incredibly close to him to be entrusted with this part of Eros.
◢ BIOGRAPHYxxxxxxx ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
There is a lot of mystery to the Castellanos family, but the most prominent is the unique eye color that can be found throughout the generations. While they have always told others it is a pigment mutation, the truth is that it's the result of the Eye of Hermes. Even to the family, the Eye of Hermes is a mystery; they don't know when it appeared or even how. But, they do know it has been a great boon to them since its appearance with the most notable being the power it gave their ancestor who loyally served Alexander the Great. They also know it used to be much more impressive, offering its host several incredible powers, but its power has diminished to the rather pitiful variant that is at Eros' disposal. The decline in power was rapid, going from an all-powerful blessing to something akin to an aesthetic mutation in just six generations. Eros believes the decline is due to them leaving Greece, but it's just speculation.
Despite this mystery, the Castellanos are a wealthy and influential family in Japan. The patriarch of the family at the time of their arrival to the country made good use of the Eye of Hermes to build connections and wealth, allowing them to rise to the societal ranks with ease. They've maintained their place since, though of course the importance has consistently shifted as society's priorities changed. Eros is the most recent to inherit their family's gift and it was an incredible shock as, before him, the Eye of Hermes had only ever been inherited by men. Having been born a daughter, it was a tremendous event in the family. But, Eros is a rebel in a long line of obedient Castellanos sheep. Not only did he go to university for a major with no real value in the family's eyes, he came out and transitioned which was a major blow to the family's pride. But, he hasn't let that bother him. Eros was quick to adapt to life without a family, more relieved to be free from the stress and pressure, and made a life for himself in Domino City as a historical language and mythology consultant for the museum. Sure, he's not rolling in the money, but he doesn't need to be. He's happy.

▌OTHER APPEARANCES : Aventurine from Honkai: Star Rail ▌CRUSH : Messiah Second-in-Command ▌OTHER INFORMATION ▿
▸ Eros' deadname is Amara, though he's obviously never told anyone that. Sometimes he'll get text messages from family members asking "Amara" if "she's" come to "her" senses yet, but he's usually very quick to delete them. ▸ The Eye of Hermes manifests in the first son born after the previous user's death. The child does not need to be directly descended from the previous user; he just needs Castellanos blood. ▸ When activated, the Eye of Hermes causes Eros' eyes to glow. This is part of the reason he can typically be found wearing ultra dark sunglasses; he doesn't need anyone knowing his family's secret. Another factor is that people can get freaked out by them and he'd rather not cause a scene. He personally loves the unique colors of his eyes, though. ▸ Despite his family's gift, Eros doesn't believe in higher power like the gods. To him, the name "Eye of Hermes" is just wishful thinking. He doesn't discredit religion, though; he just doesn't believe in it himself. ▸ Eros actually detests black liquorice and cotton candy; the former is just gross and the latter's texture bothers him. He says he named his cats after his two most hated candies so he could joke to people about how much he loves Black Liquorice and Cotton Candy. ▸ Eros' apartment, while not grand, is spacious enough. It has two bedrooms, two ensuite bathrooms, and a connecting living room and kitchen area that is considerably large. If done right, five or possibly six people can fit comfortably enough. Two bunkbeds in the second bedroom or one bunkbed and a single while someone else takes the pullout in the living room is more than enough. Despite having two cats, Eros keeps his apartment very clean and stink-free. If it stinks, it's you, not the cats. ▸ Speaking of cats, Liquorice and Candy are Eros' babies. He expects any and all guests to treat them with the same respect they would give a human host. You are visiting their home, not the other way around. Eros takes their health seriously to the point that he has a list of things that are safe to give to them hung on his fridge so he, and guests, don't forget. If it's not on the list, don't give it to them. ▸ The story of how Eros came to take in Liquorice and Candy is rather cliché. He had fed their mother for a little while before finding her dead in her usual alley. It was clear that someone had intentionally attacked her. As the story goes, he found her kittens nearby and took them in. He has a shrine for Mama Black in his living room. Liquorice and Candy can sometimes be found curled up in front of the portrait he'd drawn of her. ▸ Eros likes clothes that reveal as much skin as he can get away with. Chest windows, visible waist, etc. He knows he's pretty, so why shouldn't he show off? ▸ When frustrated or flustered, Eros will switch to Greek. ▸ Though he officially hasn't learned any languages, he has forged documents saying otherwise. You can't work with the museum without the proper qualifications, after all.

Mama Black was a stray cat that used to live in the alley next to Eros' apartment building. She was friendly and fairly popular with the residents; most of them would feed her, Eros included. Sadly, she is no longer with them, but she left behind two kittens that he took in.

Black Liquorice, or just Liquorice, is one of Eros' cats. He adores him and his sister like they were his own blood. Liquorice is the physical manifestation of the word "calm"; even when he's playing, he is very passive about it. Truthfully, he prefers to nap in the window or on the pillow under Mama Black's shrine. While not the most affectionate cat, meaning he isn't going to cuddle or demand attention, he purrs like a motorboat when his ears are scratched while napping. The only burst of hyperactivity people are likely to see from Liquorice is when he runs to greet Eros after he's been gone for a while.

Eros' second cat and Liquorice's sister, Cotton Candy (affectionately just referred to as Candy) is the exact opposite of her brother. She is super affectionate, often demanding attention with a headbutt or persistent meowing and she will absolutely cuddle. However, she is also constantly hyper; it's very rare, and concerning, if she hasn't zoomed across the apartment in more than twenty minutes. She is a very physical player that has no awareness or care of how sharp her claws are, so be warned. Candy has a habit of jumping into Eros' arms when he comes home and climbing anyone that's spent more than two minutes in the kitchen.
