Overview
Alias(es): None
Real Name: John Monday
Age: 25
Concept: Brooding Wallflower
Physical description: Monday may never smile, but he's got the "strong, silent type" down to a science. Moderate build, sandy blond hair and reading glasses. Like his Oathmate Sebastian, Monday never dresses in anything less than designer. The way he pulls it off more casually than the others indicates that he taught them a thing or two about clothes, not vice versa. Unlike Sebastian, however, his wardrobe is predominately white. His mien is truly celestial; stars fill his eyes, his skin is pale and alabaster, like the moon from which his name is derived, and he seems almost to emit a soft white glow. He assures those who have mistaken him for a Bright One that he is far more sophisticated than that.
Story
Brief History: While not as socially outgoing as the rest of his Motley, Monday is far from the outcast. He's not the most approachable member either. Monday never laughs, only ever cracks a smile when he's being sardonic, and spends most of his time glaring out over the room. For the few who approach him despite this, Monday is by far the most intellectual member of the oath circle. Music, dancing and luxury, he will say, is for the peasants. Give him an hour and he will tell you about Bach's greatest masterpiece, or what Aristotle said about the nature of free will. Those who fail to keep up are not worth his time, and nothing is more precious to him than time. Monday is obsessed with timing; he wears two watches, though he doesn't even need them. Never late, and never early, Monday expects nothing more or less from his companions. Interruptions of his routine are not something to be tolerated.
Merit Details:
- Everything around Monday is cast in the light of a clear, spring night of a full moon. Even the most trivial of things seem like fate. (Spring Mantle 2)
Allies
Within the Motley, Monday seems closest to Sebastian Lament and Treble Clef. Sebastian seems the most willing to humor Monday's insistence that they leave the bar at precisely 2 AM.
Enemies
Monday went to Diligent Dave for automotive repairs. Once. Dave's work was delayed two days owing to a parts distributor mix-up. Monday refuses to deal with Dave now.

Quotes
"While for many people, for whom rationality and reason is paramount, Hume starkly shows us that it's all about emotions... desires first, reasons second..."
Rumors
Monday spent his durance in Arcadia as a celestial being; a God of his own realm, given to him by his Keeper. He maintained some degree of that celestial power even after his escape. His Contracts are totally unknown to most Lost.
