history
Childhood | Teenage Years | Adulthood |
Parents: Sujaya and Kumail Yadav Older brother: Adem Agni Yadav , 17 Younger sisters: Reyi and Meera Yadav (twins, 9) Teo was the epitome of the mediocre, forgotten middle child in a middle-class family, both parents working in the service of the South Court's rulers. While his younger sisters were babied and doted on, and his older brother was constantly praised and admired, Teo tended to disappear, to be disappointingly average. His choice of escape was to explore—to wander the forests and wilds around his home, and learn the secrets of a world where he wasn't judged or compared. Sure, he had a quick, sarcastic tongue and he could make almost anything out of some scrap metal or stone, but those weren't the kinds of things that his family valued. The summer of his twelfth year, while exploring, he came across a feral cat—well, all animals in the Faewild were feral, just like everything else, though some were tamed and kept as pets, prizes, or livestock. But this one was truly wild, skittish and mistrustful, and Teo made it his mission to befriend it. He called the cat Raja, and slowly, he began to earn its trust. One day, however, Teo came across an abandoned building—perhaps a workshop, once—that had started on fire, and he realized that Raja was trapped inside. He did manage to save the cat, but suffered extensive damage to his left leg, enough that it could not be saved. Over the next year, Teo learned to walk with an enchanted prosthesis that responded to his body as muscle would, but he's still uncertain about starting school as an injured oddity. At least he'll have Raja, who hasn't left his side since the day of the fire. | N/A | N/A |

writing sample
Fae revels never went without fire. In this case, the marble posts of the pavilion were lined with lanterns, the flames inside blurred through the glass. Let the candles stand alone, Gemini thought; if they weren’t wily and feral enough to burn despite the elements, they had no place in Faerie. He preferred such things undimmed.
There were other kinds of fire at play tonight. Across the room, revealed by the shifts in the watercolor crowd, Jin-Hwa Mei stood at the edge of the pavilion. Had it been anyone else, mortal or fae, Gemini might have said they were lingering. But she did not linger any more than she hesitated. Proper timing seemed to follow her discretion; she was never late, never the visitor who overstayed their welcome, never too quick to act. It would be time to move precisely when she decided so.
Be not quick to judge, Ambrose might tell him, but Gemini knew full well that his brother only followed that principle until he'd decided what he could get from a person. He was not a moral creature any more than he was a clever one. Not like Gemini. Not like the unwanted heir whose talents would go unused and forgotten.
special situations
Teo is missing the lower half of his left leg, due to a fire in an abandoned building that was, unbeknownst to him, set during one of his brother's experiments. He wears an enchanted prosthesis that he built himself, though the enchantments are not his work as he's not very good at magic yet.
