The Rhodes/Viehman Family
Vic Rhodes
Vic Rhodes grew up in a well taken care of family. His father was a politician and they always had money. They were a picture perfect American family and that's the way Vic wanted things to stay.
Vic followed in his father's footsteps and he himself became a politician. He married the daughter of an old friend of the family, Melissa. Together they had two daughters, Mercy and Mary.
The problems started with Vic's brother, Christopher. Chris had hidden special abilities from the family for years. Vic had trusted his brother, despite all the signs which pointed to horrible things. He had even trusted the man with his children.
Vic was the one that had called the police o his brother after a nasty scene in which Vic found out what had really been going on with Chris. To make matters worse, Vic and Melissa discovered a few years later that their oldest daughter, Mercy, possessed abilities much like Chris. Ashamed, and thinking of his picture perfect American family and his career and reputation, Vic sent Mercy off to Valora Academy, refusing to put up with another freek and criminal in his family.
Melissa Rhodes
Melissa much like her husband, grew up in the perfect family. Her father hosted his own TV show and her mother was a famous fashion designer. Melissa only wanted the same happy lifestyle for her children. Upon finding out about her daughter's abnormality, she urged her husband to take action and fix the problem. The issue of their daughter nearly tore the family apart. However, things went back to normal when Mercy was sent away. Melissa refuses to acknowledge her eldest daughter in any way and insists she only has one child.
Christopher Rhodes
Christopher grew up in the perfect family and he couldn't stand it. When he discovered his powers, he hid them for years. He was always the flaw in the family, living in his brother Vic's shadow. He never had a family of his own and if he had any kids at all, he was unaware.
Chris was a sick, horrible man. He wasn't always like that though. He was once a straight A honors student, football player with the hot girlfriend. That is, until he started getting into drugs. He became a drinker and an abuser and even got involved with a mob. He did his best around his family, but his happy brother was blind to the things he did.
One day, when Chris was supposed to watch his nieces, he arrived late, stinking of booze and weed. To top it off, his powers were on the fritz. His brother called the cops that day and Chris was sent to jail, but not before telling his niece Mercy that he would be back. He shared a connection with her and he knew it. They were both the flaws in a perfect family and it was only a matter of time before Mercy found out.
Elyse Ramen
Elyse is the younger sister of Melissa Rhodes. She was always close to her sister and bonded mostly with her oldest niece, Mercy. She was always there for Mercy and was very ashamed of her sister when she disowned her. Elyse stuck by her niece and was there for support if she ever needed anything. She stayed in contact with her, unlike her parents. She was even the first one Mercy told when she thought she was pregnant and Elyse urged her to tell her boyfriend.
Mercy Rhodes
Mercy is the oldest daught of Vic and Melissa Rhodes. She grew up as a happy little girl, despite the things that went on around her which she didn't understand at the time. After being involved in an abusive relationship, Mercy discovered her powers. She was disowned, sent away to boarding school broken hearted and hateful. There, she joined the Dima.
That was also where she met Tyler Viehman, her current fiance. Together they had a son, Jacob Viehman.
Mary Rhodes
Mary Rhodes is the youngest child of Vic and Melissa. She was always close to her sister, yet their relationship was tainted with jealousy and loathing. Mary had grown tired of living in Mercy's shadow. While Mary had always been merely the "pretty one" Mercy was always the "beautiful one". Things changed however when Mary discovered the truth about her sister. She was a freak. Mary was perfectly content with her sister leaving and as far as Mary was concerned, she would never have to live in her shadow again. She was happy to be rid of her.
Tyler Viehman
Tyler is the fiance of Mercy Rhodes. He grew up in New York with a bum as a father and a whore as a mother. He taught himself to play guitar and still plays to this day as a proffesion. His mother was killed when he was fifteen. At sixteen, his father remarried and Tyler was forced to put up with a stepbrother, Louis Shaymen.
Not long after Louis was sent to Valora Academy, Ty discovered his own powers and was sent away as well. After joining the school, he was bitten by Fnags Salveson and became a vampire. He joined the Dima and met up with Mercy Rhodes. Together, they have a sone named Jacob. However, after a certain incident, Ty has another kid on the way as well. This one being with the daughter of Valora Academy's headmaster.
