Nothing but a Rough Draft of the Lindsay-Sinclair Family (WIP)

This is nothing more than a rough draft, a quick scribbling of ideas so that I didn't forget them. Eventually, I'll write out each of their character drafts and post them here, and then I'll be able to start writing snippets with them. I already know that Sinclair seems to resonate to the song: Broken by Lifehouse but I'm not sure yet why.

Lindsay-Sinclair Family:
An old blood/pureblood family. The three remaining men come off as arrogant but they are the benefactors of the town that they live in. It is through them that most of their town is able to be able to survive on.

Name: Ignatius Finnegan Lindsay –Sinclair I
Nickname: Sinclair
Father: Swain Lindsay-Sinclair
Mother: Keren Lindsay-Sinclair
Note: **Both Keren and Swain are still alive but they are estranged)
Siblings: Arcadia Lindsay-Sinclair (Deceased)
Rank in Family: Patriarch
Family Motto: Orbis terrarum mos exuro (The world will burn)
Children: Two: Ignatius Finnegan Lindsay-Sinclair II and Arcadia Keren Lindsay-Sinclair (Step-son: Madison Vaitash’ehl, step-grandson Wolfe Vaitash’ehl)
Wife: Seville Lindsay-Sinclair (Deceased)

Note: The power to rule was given to the men. The men were the protectors but it was the women that held the true power. The Lindsay-Sinclair family was an ancient bloodline that was passed on through the female-bloodline. There was nothing more sacred to the men than their wives and children. Boys were raised to be respectful to women, to love and cherish them as the lifegivers and the girls were raised to be strong, able to be worthy of holding the Matriarch position.

The Matriarchs were the figureheads in many ways. They constantly went with the Patriarchs, in many ways, they were as equal as possible.

After Sinclair became the Patriarch, he fell in love with a woman named Seville Vaitash’ehl. Her reputation hadn’t grown to such a level yet, she was still a small-time scientist, one that worked in the field of experimental medicine. They courted for a few months and Sinclair asked her to marry him, he even went as far as to give up his last name (Lindsay-Sinclair) and took the name of Vaitash’ehl. (Becoming Ignatius Finnegan Vaitash’ehl)

It was after they got married that Ignatius found that his wife didn’t want to have children right away, that she wanted to concentrate on her career more and wait till she was older to have children. He stood by and watched with trepidation as his wife grew obsessed with a project that she code named: “Mockingbird”. She started spending more and more time away from him, breaking the tradition that men and women were equal in his family, and when they argued, she would bring up that she wasn’t’ a ‘Lindsay-Sinclair’ but that he was a ‘Vaitash’ehl’ and that he would follow what she said because her family was of stronger stuff than his dying line.

She came home one night, inebriated, and she cheerfully told him that she was pregnant. Sinclair obviously knew that the child wasn’t his but there was little that he could do about it. His family code stated that divorce was not permitted and that the only way that there could be an annulment was if the woman was not capable of bearing children.

Seville gave birth to a baby boy that she named Madison Vaitash’ehl.

When Madison turned twenty, he had a son that he named Wolfehart and he handed the child over to his uncle, Alcion to take care of.

It was around that time when Seville broke through and came up with what she named the Vaitash cure, something that was able to cure the prevalent virus of that time, the world was in an uproar, divided against whether to get it or to bypass it because of ‘government intrusion’. Yet, the virus that it cured seemed to gain a foothold and a pandemic happened, there was a rush to get the ‘cure’ and women and children were vaccinated first. Seville, and her son Madison, were the first ones to get the shot. Madison in public and Seville in private.

A few years later when the next generation as being born and the female children were dying before they reached viability that it was found that the ‘cure’ caused the females to die. Not only was there that, but those that got the initial vaccination dying in slow, torturous ways. During that time, Seville finally consented to carry a child for Sinclair and she found out that they were going to have twins. She knew what was going to happen but at that point, she didn’t care. She and Sinclair had been in a loveless marriage for years, she had been unfaithful and even he had been known to slip and have his own transgressions.
She gave birth to one child, Ignatius Finnegan Vaitash’ehl.

Her daughter, Arcadia Keren Vaitash’ehl had died during the pregnancy and had been assimilated by her twin.

Sinclair was grief-stricken, he demanded answers and Seville told him what she had done all those years ago. When that knowledge sunk in, Sinclair retreated and tended to his son but his anger grew till he snapped. He murdered Seville and retook the name of ‘Lindsay-Sinclair’. He raised his own son, a sickly child, and it was then that he realized that his sin in killing Seville affected the overall health of his son. He spent a tremendous amount of money trying to make his son better and finally settled on a doctor/scientist named Redemption St. Cruix. –More on Redemption when I write about Lindsay--

Note: I came up with the rather dorky name of 'Ignatius Finnegan' at work. We were joking about names and I came up with Ignatius Finnegan, for some reason I couldn't get the name out of my head and then from there came the characters that are slowly being fleshed out.
