Nicknames Boss, kiddo, prodigy, Xingan, The Jaguar.

Gender male
Sexuality bisexual
Appearance His black hair is often long and shaggy, barely covering his eyes. His eyes are like emeralds: beautiful but cold, especially to strangers and when he is angry. He's pretty much pure muscle but not bulky - it's mostly functional muscle and he doesn't lift weights - and reasonably tall, which makes him very intimidating along with his impeccable posture. His skin is tan and marred by scars but otherwise smooth. Scars: many. Most noticeably, one on his left eyebrow, a couple jagged ones on his arms, and one healed bullet wound on his thigh. Piercings: he has his lobes pierced, and he wears diamond studs in them. Tattoos: on his right forearm he has a tattoo of the chamber of a gun with one bullet in it. It's the symbol of his gang, and his also has a crown above it due to his leadership position.

Clothing When he goes out for errands or missions, dark jeans with a black hoodie and a clean white shirt underneath. Around headquarters, he wears a white button-down shirt and black dress pants. It's important to look put together when people look up to you.
Personality he is duty driven. He worked hard to get to where he was (his instatement to leadership wasn't all nepotism) and he is happy being there. He was basically born to be a leader. He's charismatic, decisive, and good at giving commands. He's a strict, but fair ruler. Punishment for disloyalty or crossing him should be expected, but he doesn't kick people when they're down. He doesn't jump into something because it makes him mad, he thinks things over and makes logical decisions.
Strengths level-headed. He is good at keeping his cool and not letting his emotions get the best of him and can think his way through difficult situations well. He is a fantastic baker, got it from his father.
Weaknesses he's got a one-track mind. He's not good at handling more than one thing at once and gets stressed out when he has to deal with something he can't find the answer to. He's controlling, and not very good at listening to other people and their ideas.

Fears Being demoted from his position of leadership, or worse, being kicked out of the gang. It's so intertwined with his family that it would be like being disowned. He doesn't like losing control or being surprised.
Likes working out and baking brings him peace. He likes spending time in nature. Working out, especially boxing. Baking and reading nonfiction.
Dislikes Candy or overly sweet things - the things he bakes are either tastefully sweet or savory. He doesn't like spending too much time at headquarters. Having so many eyes on him can get overwhelming.

Notes Some info about Roulette: the name originates from the way they deal with traitors and prisoners/rival gang members. If you're found out, you play a game of Russian roulette. If you don't die, you're free. If not, well... The position of leadership was passed to Milo's mother from the founder of the gang, and she brought in Milo as a co-leader once he was old enough.
Ivan Starkov is the co-leader of another gang in Milo's city, the Copper Knives. He's in much the same position that Milo is - his father is in power, but shares some responsibility with him now that he's old enough to take control. When they were children, Milo and Ivan were placed in the same schools; since both of their identities were concealed to keep them safe, their respective parents were unaware that they were placing their children in school with rival gang members. Milo and Ivan were none the wiser, and got along swimmingly. They got older and went on their separate paths, but met again in a bloody fight between their two gangs many years in the future. Across the battlefield, they locked eyes, and immediately recognized the other. For a moment, they were both frozen in place, a mix of horror and nostalgia at the sight of their childhood best friend. Then, Milo saw one of his close friends in Ivan's headlock, and watched as he slit her throat right in front of him. Needless to say, they've been bitter rivals ever since, and any meeting between them has ended in blood. For more info about Ivan, check out "Knife's Edge" in my OC Book.
Scenario 1: Your OC is part of a rival gang to Roulette. One night, they are on a mission to curry favor at the birthday party of a very successful businesswoman in the city. It's dangerous, because the venue is right in Roulette territory, but it's going quite well, so much so that they almost forget where they are. They're on the dance floor when they hear a voice just over their shoulder. "This is Roulette territory. What are you doing here?"
Scenario 2: Your OC, by some incredibly bad luck on their part, finds themself a prisoner of the notorious gang, Roulette. They've heard rumors about what happens to those that cross the gang, which only makes the gun on the table in front of them even more daunting. They don't know how long they sit in there - maybe they check the gun, only to find the chamber empty - but after a while a man in a crisp white shirt comes through the door, shutting it behind him. He sits down at the table and, upon seeing the look on your face, says, "I'm guessing you already know what's about to happen."
