On the outside the Sawyer family seemed like any other rich and well off clan. They attended dinner parties, large social events. Always dressed to impress and always clean cut and never gossiped about. But underneath the fake smiles and seemingly perfect family lay a dark and dodgy business and that was where their wealth came from. Funded by illegal business transactions done in seceracy and drug dealing. That was what the true Sawyer empire was and had been since the days of Richard's grandfather and his father before him. Spanning four generations. Richard was the first born son and as all first born sons within the Sawyer family Richard was expected to follow in his father's footsteps. The heir to the dark mob monarchy that his great grandfather had built up from the turbulant days of world war two. From a very young age Richard was trained and taught every trick of the trade. He took to it like a duck to water. Without hesitation or question he allowed his father to mould him into the perfect next in commant. By the time he was thirteen years old he had commited his first crime. By the age of sixteen Richard tried a much more daring heist which resulted in his capture. Failiure had never been an option within the Sawyer family and as a result of his arrest Richard was given community service a much more lenient punishment than his father was about to unleash on him. Richard was brought home by police once his stentence was carried out. In front of the police his father played the respectable business man disgusted by his son for his actions but as soon as the law left his father turned his hands on his son. Beating him and then locking him up in the basement. For two days Richard remained unchecked by his father until on the end of the second day the doors opened and his father entered. Releasing his son he made Richard vow never to be as foolish as to be caught again or else next time he would not be as lenient and kind hearted. From that mistake Richard quickly grew more careful of his actions and by the time he had graduated from school with full honours he was a formidable member of his father's gang. Although he had each chance and the grades to attend college Richard opted for continuing to work for his father. While his father was the face of the day to day business which was run so legally nobody would ever doubt them. Richard became the face of his father's more unlawful business When Richard was twenty one he met his first wife. Their marriage was short lived and a divorce followed which left her with nothing. Just how Richard had found her. It was not long after his divorce that he married his long time mistress a simple waitress working in a local spanish restaraunt in New York city's underbelly. By 2009 Richard had two divorces under his belt. With his second divorce also came a large blow. The family's "lawful" business was struggling and to save the family's "honour" Richard sold it to a private buyer without his family knowing. In the process making himself a couple of millions. It was at this point Richard decided to leave New York city taking with him all of the money and leaving his father's legacy and loyal followers in tatters. Richard came to Brunswick ,Maine. with his great wealth and took on the name Axel Sawyer to hide his indentity. Richard now known as Axel has been in Brunswick ever since. Slowly building up his own criminal empire. PERSONALITY Richard is not the easiest of men to understand. He is mysterious in his manner. He never lets anything slip. Always careful of how he words things and when in the company of strangers. Richard is his father's son in more ways than one. Sharing similar looks but also he is driven , ambitious and highly intelligent. Unlike his younger siblings Richard is reserved in his ways and is not very open towards people who approach him. It is safe to say that Richard has a fiery temper and when he is pushed will not stop until he gets even. Richard is a disloyal man. He is highly Vain and with his vanity comes a lot of female interest which has made him pleasure seeking , selfish. With 3 long gone wives that span the globe Richard has a cold heart.

He has a soft sport for household pets. But loathes all outdoor creatures • Richard once sent a dead owl through the post only to scare the holy crap out of somebody Richard IN HIS OWN WORDS "My name is Richard Sawyer but most people call me Axel. I'm not sure how that name came about but it sounds a lot more hardcore than plain old Richard and just to mention I moved here to "start over" and so continuing to call myself Richard would have been stupid because a lot of people are looking for me. for the simple reason which most people around here don't know is where I come from, Which is New York City I was a member of a large and wealthy family who..how can I say...I double crossed and left with nothing. But none the less I hope that we will run into one another..I'm looking for new "friends" in South Carolina. But mind you, if you cross me you better keep looking over your shoulder and sleep with one eye open, because eventually I will get you. BEHIND THE MASK SHIPPY | AGELESS! | GMT | I'M ALREADY HERE | LARSON REED Axel could hardly ever sleep for the suggested Eight hours a night. No his dreams were filled with dark things which robbed him of his slumber. Some nights he would awaken in a cold sweat shaking from head to toe. Not knowing for a few moments where he was. A sickness would form in the pit of his stomach as his mind allowed him to beleive for those bitter short moments that Robert was alive and such releif washed over him when finally he worked it out that the monster was dead. Tonight had been very much the same story. Awoken from his slumber almost crying out in terror from the dark images which spun around in his head. Then he had got changed from his sleep clothes. Gone down to the office and paced. As he waited for Rhianna's arrival Axel brushed his fingers through his messed up light brown hair. Stopping next to a large mirror to fix his tie, his shirt and his jacket. The blood-shot eyes did not aid his manic appearence, His hair unruly and the rough stubble which marked the need for a shave. Leaning against the small table at the bottom of the mirror Axel peered at himself, Peering into the glass and shook his head. In his eyes he could see the monster, Robert's dirty, evil little creation. The boy who's mother had been chased away before Axel had even been able to utter a word, The teenager who's father had urged him to sleep with whore after whore to make him a man at only twelve years of age. The wife Robert had picked for him when he had turned sixteen, and the woman who had left him stood at the altar at the age of eighteen. The woman he had grown to love and cherish who could not stand the thought of married life and eternity with him. As Richard gazed into the mirror he could see the landmark events of his past. Those events which had moulded the creature he was today. Shuddering Axel rubbed his tired eyes and took a deep breath. It was true what Rhianna had once said - That after Robert's death Axel could have made a change. Could have turned his life around. But she did not understand and by no fault of her own. He had not told her those horror stories which he tried so hard to bury deep within his memory bank. He knew no other way of living. Having never been shown kindness aside from the cook who remained at the Sawyer Mansion. Moving away from the mirror as if frightened of it Axel backed up into the wall closing his eyes and breathing harder and heavier as he slid down it. Tears forming in the corner of his eyes as he fought desperatly to lock away his past. The doorbell rang and Axel all but bolted towards it. Pulling it open before a servant had the chance to even get close. He stumbled out of the mansion, The cool night air awakening each sense as he threw is arms around Rhianna. Burying his face in her shoulder and just held her there. No work spoken for a few moments before he abruptly ended the embrace, Looked at her and turned on his heel heading inside once more. Bringing his hand to his mouth Axel began chewing on his thumb-nail wating for the dark haired female to follow him inside and shut the door. Pacing the enterence hall like a man tired of waiting Axel took one look to her before moving swiftly to the lounge. He swing the door open not caring that with such force it hit the wall and bounced back. Reaching his hand out to stop it before it hit him in the face the male stepped into the dark room. Lightened only by the dying embers of the fire which had resided there earlier that evening. Plonking himself on the couch, Axel's dark features were heightened by the lighting. That strange eerie glow from the fire mixed into the black. Still he did not speak a word only peering over ocassionally to see if the female had followed... |
