FEARS: Never settling down, dolls (though he works on horror film sets), falling out a window
SECRETS: Morrissey has only just recently started playing video games. He'd never had them growing up with all those girls around him. He was far more interested in doing whatever it was they were doing and wondering how he could introduce wrestling to it.
PERSONALITY: Morrissey is a wonderfully creative man. While his preferred medium is makeup, he's quite good with all manner of paints. He's a clever man with a brilliant mind. He had the grades growing up to do so many things, but having so many older sisters, it was almost inevitable that he'd found himself in makeup. Morrissey enjoys the high speeds of a film set just as much as he loves a good, laidback weekend at the cottage. While Morrissey might look like an intimidating bad boy, he's really anything but. If fact, he is quite the gentleman. His sisters would have locked him in a cupboard if he had been anything less than a kind man. Despite his more feminine occupation, Morrissey is quite the athletic man's sort of man. He may be able to have a genuine conversation with a woman without ogling her or expecting anything from her. Any one of his sisters would have slapped him so hard, he'd be seeing stars for a month. He was much smarter than that and as he is a good person, he prefers and enjoys those real conversations over anything else. He's a fairly cultured man who likes to treat the women in his life like the queens that they are, spoiling them whenever he can. Ideally, Morrissey would like that one special woman to just fall into his life but he's aware things like that just don't happen.

HISTORY: Morrissey grew up the youngest of eight children; all but him being girls. Wanda and Henry said they would stop when they got their boy and they did. It only took six pregnancies to get there thanks to two sets of twins, one of which, included Morrissey. Though he was named after the musical artist, it was before he'd come out to the world as whatever inhuman thing he was so Morrissey liked to pretend his parents took his name from a book; however, considering each and every one of his sisters was named after a significant musical genius of the sixties, seventies or eighties, it was unlikely anyone believed him; not that he actually cared. Life for him was pretty good growing up, even if he was constantly surrounded by women. His father had hoped for a baseball playing football star. What he got was a life-sized doll for older sisters to play with; and did they ever play. Before Morrissey could walk, he'd been dressed up in just about every costume imaginable, after he'd learned to walk and sit still long enough, they also did his makeup. As a young boy, he wasn't aware that he was supposed to hate this and though he did love to make toy guns out of toilet paper rolls, play with his action heroes and sports, he really enjoyed spending that time with his sisters.

There were ten years between him, his twin sister Palmer and Dylan so she was the one that started the whole "let's put makeup on the babies!" game; not that any of them didn't like to play. As they grew older, Morrissey didn't hate it as much as he should have and willingly played the game in preparation for Halloween or any fancy dress parties. Eventually, as he got older, he was taught how to use the brushes, which bit of makeup was best suited for each of them and the doll became the artist while the artist became the doll. He wasn't great when he first started but he was a quick learner and picked up pretty fast. He took all that his sisters taught him and then added his own spin to it. In high school, Morrissey took to the drama class like a moth to a flame. He didn't so much like being in front of the camera or on the stage but he really did enjoy the background things, especially the makeup. He was also on the football team and played baseball; living that Glee life to the fullest without the singing and dancing and extra bullshit drama.

Other than the usual drama, life in high school for Morrissey was pretty good. He wasn't teased so much and a lot of his female classmates looked to him for makeup advice. Rumours swirled that he was gay but that was only a natural response by idiots when they hear about a man doing makeup. If they only knew that half the makeup in movies, including all their favourite horror flicks, were thought up and executed by men. Morrissey really wished he had any other talents because he would have loved to get into film but in high school, he thought he wasn't good enough. He had no clue that there was so much more to that particular part of the industry. Morrissey started a small business in high school because having a normal job seemed so dull to him and he was good at what he did; so why not get paid for it? He did event makeup, weddings, proms, got hired on from time to time to do makeup for photoshoots. He built up a portfolio, started a blog so people could actually see his work easier. Graduation rolled around and Morrissey knew more about the industry thanks to the handful of commercial jobs he'd snagged so he knew there was more to the world than the simple styles he'd created for brides and the like. So, naturally, he went off to school to study makeup in more detail, learned so much more than he'd ever imagined and stumbled into different areas. He was quite fond of the basics that he'd been doing all his life but really found his calling in the more non-traditional makeup styles, especially those for television and film. He couldn't sculpt to save his life but he worked an airbrush like nobodies business and knew how to wield those brushes better than anyone. He was good but he knew there was still so much to learn.

As he went through school, he did learn; so much. And in those four years, he'd been offered jobs here and there to add to his portfolio and when he finally graduated, he was offered a place at a well-established shop with the options of catching the odd job here and there. His work was out there and he'd been tapped to do some work for a magazine spread. He did so well with it that they told him at the end of the first day that he would definitely be asked back to do more work for them. It wasn't exactly what he wanted to do but it got his name out there more and it was money that would help pay his bills so he wasn't about to turn it away either. Over the next few years, Morrissey worked hard all over the world, being part of this movie and that one, this series and that. His name was in the credits of some big-time productions as well as some indie hits. He was attached to a couple of Broadway plays and built up his skills. These days, Morrissey is still doing what he loves but has officially risen up through the ranks of the shop to run his own team, which is something he'd never thought he would ever do. He has those special clients that he occasionally travels with when he's not on a set or working another job but they're few and far between and seeing them doesn't happen as often as he would like it too but those are the drawbacks to working in such a high demand industry. He absolutely loves every minute of it; he just thinks he'd like someone to share it with.
