Padraig is all business, seriousness, and arrogance when he's around his peers.

Some see him as a tad eccentric and put up with his whims because of his power and what he can create for others.

For those that know him on a personal level, like family and very close friends, they know Padraig for his protectiveness of his family and how much he loves them. It's clear he would do anything for his wife and son and their safety and happiness makes him happy. If he believes either are in harm's way or being threatened in any manner, he becomes like a storm--wild, angry, and unpredictable.

History

Family:

Son: Rhys Evans

Relationships:

Wife: Rowena Evans

Secrets:

No one knows he's a fae. He's been pretending to be a mage for the last two hundred years. (ooc: the birth year of 1637 is what he tells fellow mages but he's much older than that.)

Known:

Mundanes know of his fashion line since 2000.
Preternatural beings have known of his fashion and custom designs for around 100 years.

Skills:

Given his fae heritage, Padraig actually has a mixture of nature (storms, specifically) and arcane magic. He keeps the nature side hidden, displaying only his arcane powers which is also what he uses for enchanting the clothing he custom designs.

Important History:

Padraig was among the Tuatha Dé Danann that inhabited the earth hundreds of years ago, enjoying life and even the worship that some humans bestowed upon them. But as the centuries wore on and the humans changed with their beliefs and science took a stronger hold than magic, many of his brethren felt it was time to return to their own world.

The thought to go with the majority of his people was tempting but despite the changes of the current world, Padraig still called it home and wasn't ready to leave it all behind. As more of the Tuatha Dé Danann left, the remaining members his people and those of other clans chose to cloak themselves in the disguise of mages. The fae had long since become simple bedtime stories--faerie tales--and not even the mages believed in them or knew of their own origins any more.

So Padraig took on the persona of a mage, staying in what is known as Ireland, and easily falling into it as the years went on and he found his place in their society. He eventually met and fell in love with Rowena, an arcane mage of great beauty and decent power. With his guidance, her power became more controlled and stronger. Eventually, when fashion started to become a bigger deal, Padraig moved from enchanting just their own clothing to creating for others with his wife assisting in modelling the designs.

The decades passed and his fashion empire grew within the preternatural world. He and Rowena had decided a family would be nice and after several years of trying, she finally gave birth to their son, Rhys. It was around that time that Padraig decided to go mainstream and create more traditional lines that could be marketed to humans, thus securing a stable future for their son.

A few years after Rhys' birth, the decision to move to Canada was made. Padraig was curious about the hub bub that had been going on about Greenbrooke but also felt a change of pace would be nice. He had done some travelling for his work for shows and simply vacations but to settle into a new country and start anew seemed just the thing they all needed.

He's since taken great pains to keep his family safe, even when it actually hurt them. He regrets not letting Rhys' friend live with them when she was out of options but the risk was too high for her to discover they were mages and he didn't trust her to keep her head about the revelation. It was better to bar her entrance and give Rhys a taste of rejection. Padraig had always given his son everything he had ever wanted up to and after that point but he wouldn't budge when it came to Cassandra-Jade.
