~ Giotto Abruzzo ~ An exotically attractive seventeen year old male. He's quiet compared to the majority of his family but whenever he says something it usually turns out to be quite harsh despite his appearance. He isn't mean on purpose, to him it's just saying what needs to be said. Rare occasions though when someone decides to retaliate its because he insulted how they dress or their cooking- meaning it's usually the female population that decides to give him a smack upside the head. Giotto usually chastises his family members though for what they do and rarely to any other. Make yourself look bad, and it reflects on the family in his eyes. He gives them lots of second chances though after hanging them out his window to dry for a couple of hours. Giotto doesn't care for many things other than the families name, his stash of chocolate ice cream he likes to keep to himself and time. He likes things to be done right when they need to be, and can't stand tardiness from others or himself. Giotto was raised in Milan at an orphanage. He was told his mother sold herself every other and eventually died of some disease, and that his father was probably some random drunk. He heard this when he was around the age of five, and all his dreams and hopes of being 'special' were crushed. He wouldn't be taken from the orphanage by some nice man claiming to be his father, or that his mother would reappear and say that she was sorry for leaving him and had no choice. Giotto was alone, and to him that would be the way it would stay even to this day. He harbors no special or distinct hatred nor dislike for anyone, and that includes the time thieves. He does his job though quickly and efficiently no matter the cost he may have to pay. He's partially blind in one eye due to his way of thinking and has painful tremors in his hands all day and night. Giotto runs a chain of wine stores and is very well known in the gourmet world.

	~ Ashton Byers ~ A hot 18 year old guy with hazel eyes and dark brown hair, who is completely full of himself. He considers any girl he's interested in "lucky," and he's rather picky about the girls he dates. They have to be beautiful AND smart, not some dumb highschool dropout model. His favorite targets are the smart girls who don't get any "action." He thinks he can get any girl he wants without even trying, and, let's face it, he probably can. With his ravishing good looks and charming personality, it'd be a surprise if he didn't. When it comes to modesty, Ashton is not a guy you will find it in. In addition to his view of his interaction with women, he also believes he's one of the best d*** fighters the Illuminati has got. And once against his belief is not just vanity. He is a talented fighter. Despite all his faults and serious attitude problems, Ashton is good at heart when it comes to protecting the people of Italy. He has a real passion for it. His parents died when he was 10, and he tries not to ever think about that day. He didn't care what the police said had happened to them, he knew the truth. His father had just started to teach him about the Illuminati, and the thieves. He knew his parents used to be part of a branch, and they were quite respected Illuminati as well. The thieves probably wouldn't use "respected" as the word to describe them, though. "Loathed" would probably be more accurate. His younger brother is Christian, and the two don't really get along well. He has a tendoncy to pick on him. Despite this, he actually is very protective of his younger brother, even if he doesn't show it. After their parents' death, a couple of Illuminati brought them to live with the 4th Family. When Ashton was only 10 years old, he vowed to avenge his parents' death and to always watch over his little brother, and he has been fighting to do so since. RPed by Crystalfrost
	~ Christian Byes ~ An angelic looking 16 year old guy with blond hair and amazing hazel eyes with flecks of blue. Unlike his older brother, Ashton, Christian is probably one of the most modest people on the face of the earth. He is shy and polite, and doesn't usually pick fights. He is sweet and kind, just the kind of guy that would make a good friend. Add that in with his unwavering loyalty, and you have the perfect friend. Unfortunetly, girls typically aren't attracted to guys like him. He's "cute," not "hot." He tries not to think about it, but sometimes he feels bad because his brother has had countless numbers of girls, and he'd never even kissed one. Though neither of them talk about it very often, and Ashton hardly even thinks about it, both their parents died when Christian was only 8 years old. It seems like such a long time ago to him now, but he can still remember the police arriving at their door. A car crash, they said. He believed them then, he doesn't now. He knows what happened to his parents--they were killed by Time Thieves. He was probably too young to really understand what was going on back then, but he can still remember how great his life was before that terrible day. But he keeps on pushing through life, and learning how to be a better Illuminati. The one time when his brother and him get along is when he's teaching him to use his powers, and to fight.

	~ Isolde Notoriano ~ Isolde Notoriano is a very slim girl with a delicate figure and porcelain skin. Her silver hair falls softly down her back, creating a blanket of pale color against her clothes. She has wide grey eyes that give her the look of a startled doe in headlights. This sixteen year old seems too fragile to be much of a fighter. Dressed in elegant dresses, she looks much more like a doll one would place on the shelf, far away from any danger the world might hold for her. But Isolde is far more than a pretty face. She lost her parents and little brother to a break in gone wrong. Things were not supposed to go so far, but by then, it was too late and they were lost to her forever. She is a survivor and the ordeal has left her with a beautiful sadness in her eyes. She may be small, but Isolde is not weak. She's suffered more than she believed her heart could take and if presented with it again, she knows she could get through it. That is what Isolde does: she pushes on. Now, she is a part of the Illuminati, 4th Family. Her loss has given her a queer freedom to do as she likes and she will. Isolde was once a very happy girl, nothing but smiles and kind words. She's since retreated into herself, keeping to shy smiles and side-long glances. If she isn't careful, her glass heart may shatter to pieces. RPed by ~HeartShapedLocket~
