# Elijah Augustus Giovanni
### Overview
Most of the family in Baltimore won't speak of him out of superstition. He is likely the only one with his atavism in North America. Those things combined give him a great deal of autonomy.
Autonomy he wields as well as he wields his words: Like a motherfucking sledgehammer.
Other than Rosa Giovanni, the family matriarch in Baltimore, he's an outcast in his own Clan and amongst those who professed to love him the most. Elijah is abrasive on good nights, downright cruel on bad ones, and only cares for perhaps three individuals.
If you have to ask? You're not one of them.

Elijah's untimely death was just that: Untimely.
Before that, he was just another college student. One who had a bit more insight into the way things really worked in the world, but still just a kid going to college and majoring in Graphic Design and Coding, and running the occasional errand for a few of his 'night owl' family members.
A few pretty lucrative errands, and mostly for his Uncle Ephraim, but that is beside the point.
The night is one that Elijah relives every time he closes his eyes in daysleep. He'd been on his way home from late-classes, and he's convinced to his night he was targeted. He was grabbed, and then three nights later--three nights that he tries incredibly hard to forget--he was dumped on the steps of La Scala Ristorante (one of the family's front-restaurants), near death and unable to tell anyone what had happened to him.
It was his Uncle Ephraim who did it. Who had his cousins leave them alone in the private party room, and after attempting to get answers out of Elijah did the only thing he could to keep him alive long enough learn the truth of what had happened.
He Embraced him.
As per a lot of the Family, it wasn't done properly or something went wrong that night. Maybe it was because Elijah hadn't been properly prepared the way most Giovanni are, or maybe it was because he'd been so close to death prior to the Embrace, but he wasn't...right. Instead of the normal curse their family was stricken with, Elijah instead looked as though he were a fresh corpse, and no matter how hard he tried, or how much his sire attempted to teach him, he was unable to quicken his blood to make him seem more alive.
Which was why, after Ephraim called in a few favors, Elijah was taught the art of Obfuscate.
Since those nights, Elijah studies, and spends a good deal of his time alone. The Family tends to be odd around him. He's still provided for and protected--he IS still Giovanni--but he tends to be kept at arms' length by the younger members of the family, and given a wide berth by those who are older.
And his Sire?
He left a few years ago. Left Elijah to his studies in their shared penthouse while he traveled to various places where their family Elders were ensconced.
Because while Elijah believes his Uncle is attempting to escape him, the truth of the matter is Ephraim Giovanni is searching for answers as to 'why'.
