Elian Whitlock

"All people suck."

Elian Whitlock is a former experiment of the SSS, and the leader of the gang who calls themselves 'The Skull Crushers'. He is also DC experiment Solaris Whitlock's younger brother.

Personality
Elian portrays himself to the public as a cruel and heartless individual that lacks empathy, and cares for no one. Similar to his older brother, Solaris, Elian has very few friends and most people tend to avoid him, either out of disgust or hatred. However, this simply masks his actual personality, and is also an attempt to protect his heart. Elian simply just won't admit that he's afraid of being abandoned or hated by the ones he loves, which is most likely due to growing up without actual parents and the unintentional abandonment of Solaris. Despite this, Elian does accidentally show his true personality every once and a while, a minor example of this is during one of his conversations with Sean. Sean had asked Elian why he seemed to act different around children, later noticing the barely visible tears Elian had stained on his face, even then Elian hadn't admitted to have been crying, but Sean had known.

Truthfully, Elian is soft and meek, and is known for showing affection towards those he loves, such as his sister, Valerie. He mostly displays affection in private, since he's not quite a fan of PDA. However, Elian does sometimes show minor affection out in public, such as petting Sean and rubbing Valerie's head. His crew sometimes finds this a bit odd, seeing how he's usual mean with everyone, family members included, nonetheless, when being asked about it, Elian had just ignored the question and began giving everyone orders as usual, that being said, his "odd behavior" usually goes unnoticed by his gang.

In private, Elian often expresses a lot of hurt that he keeps inside, resulting in his rather ruthless personality towards the world. Similar to Jane, he's often known for antagonizing the world, however goes above and beyond to show his hatred for it. This may lead people to believe that he blames the Solaris and the world for his rough past, which, could perhaps be the case. Valerie eventually talks to Sean about how Elian hates the world, stating that they both believed it was Solaris's fault for everything.

Elian is surprisingly sweet with those he loves in private, excessively telling Valerie how strong she is, and "how cool she looks out on the battlefield," another example of this is how he acts towards children, often telling Valerie that he'd like to adopt every child in the world and show them as much love as he can give.

When Solaris and Elian had reunited, Solaris had asked about Elian's change, and why he seemed so cold and different, causing Elian to explain how he blamed Solaris for his childhood, and how he and Valerie had turned out. Solaris had been confused, but continued to try and persuade his brother into calming down and coming with him, which, hadn't worked considering Quinn had to drag Solaris away before he'd gotten himself killed. Later on, Elian tells Sean that his main goal is to surpass, and never turn out like Solaris. Sean was a bit stunned, since, Solaris was one of the nicest people they'd encountered throughout their time together, but had went along with Elian even then.

When angered, Elian becomes extremely chaotic and destructive, which usually results in others being harmed and things being destroyed. However, calming him down is quite easy if you're his "friend," so it's rare you'll see much chaos following Elian around. Valerie asks Elian why he even bothers getting angry if he can easily be calmed down, and Elian admits that he doesn't necessarily have an answer for that.

Unlike Asher, Elian formed a gang to terrorize civilians instead of justifying those who aren't humans, and makes that clear to the public numerous times. Rose talks a bit about this to Collin, however not much is said seeing as there isn't much information on the gang. Later, when hearing about The BloodBanners, Elian decides to ignore them, obviously being displeased with their intentions, seeing as they're seen as more of a threat than those who fight for good. Sean asked why Elian didn't want to meet their leader, and Elian simply says "they're using their abilities for stupid reasons," and that "they'll just drag us down." Valerie seemed a bit upset since she was had admitted to being fascinated with Wyatt due to his rather inferior relationship with Suzui, but Elian dismisses her by saying that there's tons of other drama she can dig into around the world.
