William Delphine's Questionnaire

William currently lives in a studio apartment on the outskirts of Phoenix Arizona, above his family's bike shop. As the last of his family, William had committed to keeping it running with the help of a life-long friend, Sven "Scav" McMillan. After his dad's death left him grieving and lost, Sven would run the shop and seek desperately to help William come back to the world of motocross, but was unsuccessful. William would stay here until he faded away if it wasn't for his nightmarish visions, driving him to seek answers and to prevent the terrible fate within. He comes back from time to time, getting his bike fixed up and to check in with Sven.

William's earnings come from his shop, with him taking the owner's cut each month. It's not a lot of money but it allows him to take excursions chasing the targets of his supernatural visions. Sven, his life long friend, keeps the shop running and tends to his bike when he returns home. Customer's are not as common, but there is a loyal clientele who knew both William and his father. He needs to come home to get his income, and will not receive anything if the time does not allow. Sven has limited contact with William while out in the field, and cannot generally send him any assistance financially. He's got a family to feed, after all.

William chases the will of the flame from his nightmares. It offers hope from the coming ruin, and demands his assistance for the aid it gave his father. Despite the coercive nature, William does agree with the need for intervention, at least for the time being. Unaware of the overarching goals or motivation behind the flame's brief mental imprints, he seeks to find the locations and meaning behind his dreams, and the reasons he is given them. He has seen the terrible, apocalyptic nightmares the flame has shown him will come to pass, and will fight to stop them from happening, regardless of what he has to do. Killing is not his motivation, but he will do what is needed, whatever the cost.

William found himself facing the Contract after he sent a plea into the universe to cure his father's abrupt cancer. Having had his father as his only parent for most of his life, since the age of 6, losing him to cancer was not acceptable. Exhausting his amassed winnings from his motocross championships and sponsors, all hope seemed lost until he was answered by what he would come to know as The Flame. In a dream one night, he was offered a bargain, the details of which were left open with only the benefit of his father being cured offered. William accepted without a second thought, and within the following week his father's cancer had completely went into remission. The regained time was tragically cut short when during a local motocross meet, his father's first in years, a freak accident caused a competitors bike to fly off the track and crush William's father into the stands.

Clint Delphine - William's late father. Clint was an accomplished auto engineer, specializing in motorcycles. He started up a repair shop and motocross supply store in the outskirts of Phoenix Arizona. When William was born, Clint and his wife, Esther, focused on raising him as a strong and kind soul, always giving him love and support. Esther passed away abruptly when William was only 6, dying in her sleep from a seizure from an un-diagnosed brain tumor.

Sven "Scav" McMilin - William's life long friend. William and Sven met when they were young boys when Sven and his family came to the repair shop. Sven and William hit it off, both boys enjoying motorcycles and motocross. Sven would come to be William's second biggest supporter once he hit the motocross scene, also taking up a spot at the repair shop as an employee. Sven and his family, Sasha, his wife, and daughter, Evelyn, live nearby the shop and are William's only remaining family.
