Kn-267: Grimoire

Grimoire grew up a servant to his rather controlling parents. They were wealthy, and essentially forced him into their bidding and the bidding of his elder brother, who would receive their wealth. While his brother became their icon, their perfect child- Grimoire was rejected and viewed as lesser, guaranteed to none of his family's success. So given the first opportunity- he joined a wandering circus and left home. He learned the art of contortion-easy with his already flexible body, and soon became able to bend and twist his body in fascinating ways. He jumped from circus to circus but always ended up a freak among even the freaks due to his odd social habits and lack of knowledge in communicating much with others. 

He eventually ended up part of Hades band, and with him- found a true home, and a deep love and acceptance he hadn't known before. They are very close, share a lot of their interest in the dark and strange, and will fight tooth and nail to defend one another.
