Aaron was born in Baylor Memorial Hospital, Dallas, Texas, on
October 22, 1968, at the cusp of Libra/Sagittarius. His father was
a career Fireman, and his mother was just beginning to study
nursing... meaning that, though they were kind and loving parents,
they weren't always around. Aaron spent the first twelve years of
his live living in the sleepy town of Wolfe City, population less
than 2300 people. There he learned a love for horseback riding,
camping, and the wilderness. He was a Cub Scout, Webelos, and Boy
Scout, as well as a student of Tai Kwon Doe, and an amateur at the
guitar as well as at singing. During his Third
Grade year, his parents decided he was not getting the proper
education he needed, and so they pulled him out at the end of that
school year, and from Fourth to Seventh Grades, he was in Home
Schooling... where he developed slightly antisocial behavior, and a
tendency not to care about what other people thought of him. This
also lead to a lot of loneliness, and a lack of girlfriends. It
also appeared that, somehow, he developed an obsessive/compulsive
nature, and when he organized things, it had to be EXACTLY the way
he wanted it... which was usually symmetrical, and that kind of
thing.
At the end of his Seventh Grade year, Aaron and his family moved
to Kerrville, Texas (in the Hill Country of South Texas), to help
take care of his Grandfather. Preparing for High School, Aaron
attended public school his Eighth Grade year, which was, to say the
least, disastrous to his self esteem, and would have repercussions
that lasted the rest of his life. He continued in martial arts, in
music, and Boy Scouts, as well as starting up in the Civil Air
Patrol (USAF Auxiliary). Here, he decided that he wanted to join
the military when he grew up. Starting High School, Aaron became
slightly more adept at dealing with society, though he was still a
pretty antisocial and introverted kind of guy. His freshman year,
he began to play the Tuba, but quickly went back to the
guitar, finding no interest in high school band.. His singing was all amateur stuff, but he really
DID enjoy it. His junior year of High School, he picked up acting,
and eventually gained a knack for it, including acting in school, as
well as Community Theater, performing in both regular plays and
musicals. After a particularly great performance... Aaron became
addicted to acting. Upon his graduation, in 1987, he decided that
this was where his path lay.
He traveled to California, where he decided he would become an
actor, no matter the cost. It took three years before he got a
serious role, but, after that, the offers began pouring gin.
Finally, in 1995, he was cast as the lead villain in a Psychological
Horror movie, "A Sliver of Darkness." It was here that he gained
his Fame. He was well known for the part, and earned a LARGE sum of
money. Upon the night that he gained his last paycheck, he was
approached by a woman... a Toreador, in fact, named Adriana. She
offered him a chance to keep improving his gift until he was a true
master. He agreed and, that night, was Embraced... tricked
into accepting into the Unlife by his own desire to be the best.
After that, Aaron's life was turned totally upside-down, as the
next year was spent training in how to be a Vampire... how to hunt,
how to act, and how to pretend NOT to be a Kindred. He
excelled in his lessons, and, within that year, was quite adept at
keeping up the Masquerade. Until one night, in 1999, when a
hunting incident went horribly, horribly wrong.
Apparently recognized for what he was, Aaron's "prey" for that
evening was actually an amateur vampire hunter (unimbued), someone
who'd learned of them by personal experience, and had taken it upon
himself to rid the world of this menace. Attempting to trap
the young woman in an alley, she launched into a volley of attacks
which included nothing less than ten rounds from a Beretta 9 mm and
one phosphorous grenade. Fortunately for him, the young woman
was not the best of shots, and with his superior speed was able to
dispatch her, feeding on her more than he had intended... trying to
sate the desire for blood his wounds had brought within him.
She died that night, and the police who found her later believed her
to be the victim of a mugging or rape gone wrong.
Little did they know... or Aaron, for that matter... that the young
hunter was not alone. As with all things, there are two.
A teacher, and a student. And this teacher (also an unimbued
hunter), though he did not find out about her death for almost two
weeks, knew basically what had happened. Since that day, he
has been trying to find who it was that had done this to her, and
destroy the creature responsible.
Now, in the end of the year 2003, Aaron has finally been released
from his sire's care, and has decided to pack up and find someplace
new to reside. Someplace AWAY from the west coast.
