gabryDe Luca, Gabriele
Age: 33, born February 14, 1978
Height: 5’10″
Species: Human
Occupation: Paranormal Investigator
Likes: flirting, fancy coffee, solving puzzles
Dislikes: people that hurt kids, getting his clothes dirty, being sick or injured

Gabry’s never had a job that didn’t involve monsters and there’s almost nothing that goes bump in the night that he hasn’t had to fight and kill at some point. His body has a unique magical deficiency that causes him to drain the magical energy out of anything he touches.  It’s harmless to humans but will injure highly magical creatures. During the day he acts at the coffee side of the small book/coffee shop he runs with his boyfriend, Liam, and appears to just be an eccentric shop owner.

Species: Human
Occupation: Paranormal Investigator

Dislikes: homophobes, being forced to be social, unprofessional behavior

Liam is Gabry’s boyfriend and business partner. They keep the city’s more monstrous elements in check and act as sort of ambassadors to the friendlier monsters. He mostly handles the book side of the book shop and scowls at potential customers. The shop itself rarely seems to have any customers but it also doesn’t seem to matter.

Jeremy is a friend of Cynthia’s from work. Although he appears to be an ordinary human he was born with mutations that caused him to resemble a white rabbit. Concerned, his parents made certain that those defects were corrected when he was very young. He’s extremely embarrassed by this fact since it prevents him from really fitting in with ordinary humans or with other Beast-people.
