GOALS:
Take care of his cousin
Help make the world a better place
Become the Best Assassin in the world.
PERSONALITY:
Lan is a very shy person in his normal life, tending towards a bit of stutter the moment he feels the slightest bit anxious.
He tends towards being as quiet as possible and keeping a low profile. in his normal dealings, he is very much a nice kid who will do everything he can to help people he feels deserve kindness - and even those he doesn't. He usually acts quite fearful towards even normal human beings, despite his abilities, and has various anxieties towards different things, various phobias that affect him. He will almost always take a passive tack towards any problems he has in the process of 'daily life'.
However, there are two situations in which this changes:
When doing his job, while his personality doesn't completely change, he becomes much more active and tactical in dealing with his opponent, doing whatever he can to end the fight as efficiently and effectively as an assassin can manage. His demeanor becomes much happier and more confident in most cases as he takes out his targets without a trace of any problems or issues.
The second is when he finds those who pick on the weak, in which case he tends to completely lose his other personality, becoming a deadly creature that will stare death in the face without a problem. In both cases, the stutter of the assassin disappears, and the anxious, stuttering, nervous face of Lan becomes the confident, quite smile of 'the Reaper', his tone changing from inconsistent and squeaky to calm and disarming.
FAMILIAL AND PERSONAL CONNECTIONS:
Prima Cameo - Cousin/mentor
Vayle - Great Aunt
Sarah Cameo - Mother
Eliza Cameo - Family Matriarch
Dan Cameo - Father
REVENANT TYPE:
PRE-REVENANT:
Lan is a younger child of the Cameo family. his bloodline is part of a particularly dangerous mafia empire that's taken root in Italy, with his great aunt Vayle being the head of the Cameo Mafia. His family tends towards black haired women with green eyes in their biology, with fairly feminine figures, with Lan being the first male born to the family in 2 generations. Lan was born a sickly child and did not gain the usual muscle a cameo developed, along with being abnormally sweet for someone born into the business - for a long time, it was assumed that Lan did not have the usual 'killer instinct' possessed by most of them. As a child, he tended to shy away from most of his family and fellow kids, spending most of his time with his parents, along with his favorite Cousin, Prima Cameo.
When he began to attend school, despite his family, his shy, unassuming nature caused him to be bullied by many different people, with his passive nature and anxiety causing him to take the physical and mental abuse without doing much about it. The family began responding by making those kids who made his life miserable 'disappear', but this only had the added effect of causing Lan not to talk about the kids who bullied him - his perceptiveness caused him to immediately piece together what the family had done it's best to keep subtle, and the young boy, even if he didn't like his tormentors, was willing to protect them with his own silence.
Eventually, his parents gave up on schooling him at home, shortly into high school, and sent him to live with his cousin, Prima Cameo. This caused the bullying to lessen, even if it didn't decrease, but Lan stayed overall unchanged until the day he saw Prima being aggressively accosted by a young mafioso. The little bastard clearly had seedy intentions in mind for his cousin, and as he pinned her hands against the wall, Lan could only think of a few, horrible things he might want to do to her.
The young Cameo, who had never as much as raised his voice beforehand, didn't hesitate for a second in stabbing the man from behind with a kitchen knife, his unassuming presence causing him to be practically ignored by the skilled warrior until a knife had already pierced through a vital area.
The young man proved his abilities, not in the rage and fervor his cousins usually showed, but in the skilled elimination of a family enemy without showing any emotion whatsoever.
Needless to say, Prima was impressed. Disappointed - for she'd never intended Lan to walk in on the scene of her prepared assassination, and she'd never been in any true danger - but also impressed at his natural talent.
It was then that Prima revealed her real career path - unusual for a Cameo, she'd chosen to specialize in assassination over the more general enforcement and Mob-running of her family, and become one of the best in the world. And those were skills she'd willingly teach to Lan - as long as he was willing to take her training completely seriously and do as she asked.
The younger Cameo, thrilled to be of use to his cousin, happily agreed, drawing just a little sadness from his new mentor's face, before they got to work. For years, they drilled at all the basics - martial arts, using knives, poisons, drugs, needles, setting areas... the list and number of topics got bigger or bigger - until, at last, he was cleared to start doing missions himself. The younger cameo was allowed his own judgement on what targets to take out, but he was expected to keep busy, and to follow any training requests he is given by his mentor Prima.
For now, he has found himself a level of private employment as an assassin, working for CORPSE
in sector 1.
POST REVENANCE:
We have yet to find out~
CORPSE EMPLOYMENT:
SECTOR 1: Lan works as a contractor, taking out targets CORPSE deems dangerous, but not requiring the intervention of a Revenant proper to handle. He has shown relatively high skill in this field already, bringing him bigger targets constantly- though he's also used to clear quite a few low-level threats and problems-in-the-making still

Where did you find our site?
Well, so I start my day off, and there's this cheese sandwich, right? It's just sitting on the patio, so I decide, why not go take this cheese sandwich and eat it? It's certainly not helping anyone just sitting there. might even attract mice. So I go for this cheese sandwich, but there's this bird, and he grabs the cheese sandwich in it's book - spilling one of the pieces of cheese out the side I might add, ruining it on the ground - and just flies off! So I chase after this bird, and the bird flies off to a nest with my cheese sandwich. So I climb up the tree, and find a bunch of baby birds eating this cheese sandwich to live, and I feel bad, because I realize I was about to take food out of the mouths of these adorable fluffballs. It's there, in the middle of the nest, that I see a slip of paper with the words 'somniumspectra.freeforums.net' on it, and decided I'd check it out. Anyways, the birds all died because bread isn't healthy for birds but I still decided to come to the site.
