History:
Graham Gyver is the second of two sons and the last of two children. He and his eldest brother belonged to the Gyver family. He was raised in a wealthy bloodline. His parents worked stay out most of the night working while his older brother watched his young brother during their time away from the house. In the summer, the family often went camping together or start a road trip learning about the world. Jaime, his mother, worked at an Electric Company as an Electrician while his father worked as a Computer Support Specialist. As a child he would enjoy the scenery as mom or dad took turns driving their family van on long trips or short one's. Once, when Graham and his father went fishing while the others were busy preparing a bonfire for a late night supper, Graham had nearly been killed by electrical eels when he went too far out into the water. The incident meant they had to return home, but took him to the hospital so that the doctors can see if there was anything wrong with him. He was fine, but his parents were advised to let him get some rest, drink tons of liquids, and eat healthy meals for three days and nights. The Gyver brothers were often spoiled as kids and during their teen years, though, living the life of luxury wasn't all that was cracked up to be. In high school, Graham joined a band and played the trombone for the school's football team when he was fourteen, later, he started rugby and excelled in it. This lead to several rival boys opposite from his team to become jealous, one that watched him had a cold glint in his eyes, this one gave him the cold shoulder each time they crossed paths. Little did he realize their was a rat in the mist. He was also an honor roll student throughout the rest of his education life that his teachers started to praise him than most of the other members of his class. As Graham scaled to success in school, he was also getting stares from the guys who had been observing him from the opposite team on the field. At his locker one night, those men came to surprise him by shoving him backwards a little, next, he was jacked on the left of his jaw and fell down on his side, several kicks later he heard someone telling them to stop. The guy who gave him that cold shoulder thought he had enough. Calling him names from spoiled class and geek of London. He was unconscious, but was suddenly awake in a room unknown to him. The one he suspected to creep him out put a damp rag over his bruised eye. Because the guy saved his life, Graham considered him an instant friend, when he didn't get a chance to get to know him it did not matter to him. What an awful mistake on his part, cause soon as they shook hands did the rich lad will soon come to regret he made connection to "devil" as in, he sold his soul. The final event of the century and his rugby team was moving in for the kill. The boys shoved, pushed, but some conspiracy to take him off the team was already going on among the players who loathed him. Once both teams stood facing each other, two to three of their opponents ran through Graham, but put him in an illegal position where he was falling flat on his back hurt and several of his fragments was shattered into a million pieces or seems that way. Ambulance were standing by and paramedics had him on the stretcher in less than no time. At the hospital for the second time, the first was that he was lucky to be alive then. The monitor made beeping sounds, then out of the blue, his friend walks in to give him a last bout. Take the infection or stay the way he is. His body was close to shutting down. So, what choice did he have? He definitely didn't want to die so ...soon, when he had a whole life ahead of him. In a low voice, he gave, leaving him to do what he wish from here. Watching the young man lock the door, he saw him remove his clothes and take the form of a humongous rat, he was attacked and the wound on his right, bare arm, was deep enough to let the infection run it's course. His rugby rival saluted after doing his deed, hearing a soft sound that the transformation will soon begin on the full moon and that he should be ready. As soon as his friend shut the door behind him, did Graham realized a stupid mistake he just made but part of himself felt maybe he did the right thing or not. His parents found something unusual when they came to see him in his room at the hospital, nurses and doctors told them he should be released and his folks were very happy to hear of this. Scared he was going to leave them, but none cared as they took him home that same day. His brother even hugged him, they both decided to have a brotherly time together by going out into the London streets as soon as their parents fell asleep. Remembering what that rat said to him during his sudden recovery and felt his fragments beginning to amend themselves right around the time the infection set in. Graham noticed his brother's suspicion, but heard no questions about it. As they stopped a brook nearby, he felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen, his brother standing behind him thinking he must be sick. At that moment, his body converted to an oversized giant rodent, a white one, it's eyes a deep red and attacked his brother leaving the elder boy soaked in his own blood. However, his eldest brother would become infected too and go through the same predicament as Graham had. At fifteen, they had both been accepted into the local London Rodere, their parents were both spoken to by the local Rat King and reluctantly did their parents come to terms with their sons condition. It has been awhile since the London brothers been in the Rodere, but their lives has not ceased as Graham chose to finish school, continued enjoying the game of rugby, and whenever he was met with those ugly boys again, did he show him something that force them to look at him in a different light. Now, he was showing that he wasn't a lesser than someone who has shown he has a life whether it's about jealousy, hatred, or getting revenge. After years has passed, he was taught the do's and don'ts of living as a wererat along with his brother, they both was doing well by then and visit their parents home every so often.
