History: Deacon was born in the US, a normal childhood that didn't seem very out of the ordinary. At least, not until he began encountering other families. Because his parents were part vampire, their dinners often came with a serving of blood, they didn't often socialize with others, etc. This strange clash with reality was hard for Deacon to adjust to, and instead of adapting, he rejected it. He did poorly in school, often getting expelled for trying to bite another kid, so he was often switching from school to school, until ultimately his parents decided to homeschool him.
When he was sixteen his parents heard about the academy for gifted youths, and decided to send him there, in hopes that he would find his little nitch and make some friends. He knows nothing about his relative at the academy, and just goes day by day trying to deal with his hunger outside of a vampire-friendly environment.
