"Charming, charismatic, slightly flirty and utterly professional" would be most people's first impression of Fionn "Amadhan" MacLachlan, and it's one he's more than happy to maintain. He slips naturally into place at any social gathering, whether as life of the party or the quieter confidante, as a decadent and high-flying socialite, or well-connected business associate. Beneath this exterior, however, Amadhan is a bit of a wild-card and a thrill-seeker, less concerned with his own advancement and success than with having a damn good time doing it.

His skill at social manouevering (coupled with a wide network of contacts made through his family's business) has served him well since his initation into the Illuminati as a valuable tool to collect incriminating information, forge contacts for the organisation, and expand their hold via social channels. However, whether out of boredom or genuine interest, he has always found himself more and more drawn towards fieldwork and the fight against the Darkness. This caused a lot of tension between himself and his former handler, who viewed him as untested and capricious. Not one to be deterred from personal agenda however, Amadhan has recently signed up with Two Minutes To Midnight, an Illuminati agency devoted to paranormal investigations.

Early Life and Family Background
Fionn MacLachlann was born in Edinburgh, the only child of Fergus and Elaine MacLachlan. This small family were comfortably well off, well-connected, and in good social standing, due mostly to Mr. MacLachlan's affiliation with an emerging and successful company, Forthside Microelectronics Inc. However, his long working hours, and frequent business trips abroad left his wife feeling lonely and neglected, placing a growing strain on their marriage. Although Elaine kept the public appearance of being supportive and committed to her husband, it was rumoured among her acquaintances that she had a number of gentlemen friends who visited in her husband's absence.

Fionn's childhood was mostly uneventful. He was a quiet and withdrawn child, and often ill. More drawn to books and imagination than to rough-housing with his peers, he struggled to make friends, and was regularly teased and bullied by other children, who had marked the pale and solemn boy as an outsider. His parents had drastically differing responses to this situation, and would argue regularly about what was best for their son. Mr. MacLachlan felt that the boy should "man up", and attempted to enroll him in a number of extra-curricular sports and similar activities. Elaine, on the other hand, accepted her quiet son as he was, and would often arrange for his absence from these activities, instead encouraging his more imaginative interests and providing him with countless books, borrowed from her own father, on history, mythology and folklore. These would become long-standing interests, and the eventual focus of his university studies.

As he approached his teens, Fionn began to become aware of his parents relationship becoming increasingly tumultuous, and in turn, Mr. MacLachlan's relationship with his son began to disintegrate. Although Fionn did not initially understand the source of this estrangement, Mr. MacLachlan had become aware of a number of his wife's infidelities, and had consequently begun to reject his son, the result of a subconscious assumption that the boy was someone else's child. This has never been conclusively proven.

Although quiet, and in spite of his father's rejection, Fionn never lacked self-confidence - he always seemed at home in his own skin, and as he progessed towards his late teens, this confidence began to grow. At first a quiet observer in many social situations, he began to slowly win over friends and admirers, not through any great skill or prowess, but though subtle manipulation learned from quietly watching others' interactions, a knack for being in the right place at the right time, and an emerging natural charisma that many found irresistable. By the time he had left home to attend university, Fionn had forged an enviable social skill-set, able to move effortlessly between circles, and fit in with any group of people. His favoured teachers would report that they found him "popular, intelligent, sensible and willing to learn", yet those whose subjects did not interest him would often declare they found the teenager "academically bright, yet worryingly manipulative of his peers."

Werewolf Country
"Aye lad, that wis exactly what it looked like. Loup Garou. Lycanthrope. Werewolf. See, first thing ye need tae ken about round here, is that near everywhere north a' Aberdeen is werewolf country. Aye, ah'm well aware we're in th'thick a' it out this way, but someone needs tae organise cullin' season. An' someone happens tae be me. Nice break fae m'other duties at any rate. Now, ah wisnae expectin' tae have ye here, but might as well use th'extra pair a' hands while ah've got 'em. So when ye've managed tae pull yersel' back t'gether, lad, ah c'n teach ye tae shoot. Ah cannae promise tae send ye back home in one peice, mind..." - Alasdair James Duncan

Two Minutes To Midnight
=Handler's Assessment : 05/12=


 * Sociable and charismatic, although somewhat eccentric. Highly intelligent. Skilled at social manoeuvring with a knack for extracting information from targets. Wide knowledge base and outstanding memory. Possesses extensive and ever-expanding contact network. Appears goal driven, but the nature of these goals are unknown to our Organisation. Highly adaptive to stressful situations. Shows obvious potential as a “public face” for our Organisation, or liaison to other interested parties.


 * Psychological profiling suggests a highly narcissistic personality.


 * Physically capable. Competent with light firearms and various schools of magic.


 * Family in good standing, socially, legally and financially. No living Initiated family members. Initiated by Archivist Alasdair James Duncan (presumed deceased). Due to this connection and his education, could be considered a potential candidate for archival duties once retired from active obligations.


 * Overly self-confident. Authority issues - works best if left to do things his way. Openly resentful of too much direct influence from his handler, or other authorities within our Organisation. Impulsive. Use careful consideration and judgement before field deployment - although effective and quick-thinking, he can be unpredictable, and is more useful to us as a collector of information on a social basis. Risk taker. Has been described by past handlers as “somewhat lacking in self-preservation instincts”. Minor mercenary tendencies, but we hold enough on him to keep him loyal.
