Bit of history:
Born to a pair of Rinkaku ghouls in the American Air Force on Kadena, Julian was always the quiet child throughout his early life. His parents always had a mysterious stock of human or ghoul to consume, and generally prepared it with some various kind of sauce or seasoning. Because of this, Jules' taste in meat is remarkably flexible, though he rarely eats it raw.
He failed to get in trouble throughout most of his public schooling, thanks to lunches brought from home. Anyone who bullied him tended to wind up stuck in an alleyway with a broken limb: nothing more, nothing less.
It wasn't until Jules had graduated high school and his parents moved back to the States that he realized how vulnerable he was on Okinawa. There was an extremely low murder rate and an even lower population of ghouls, meaning he had zero cover whatsoever.
Because of this, he moved to Tokyo, eventually settling in the 20th Ward of the city. What Jules didn't know was that it was an area highly populated with ghouls, and even a sanctuary for the persecuted beings. He had no mentor, and not much money.
Just the kind of start he wanted.
Other notes:
-Jules will consume three humans for every ghoul he eats. He's seen what eating his own kind can do, and considers it hideous. But he also wishes to keep his small territory free of strangers, and shows no mercy to intruding ghouls.
-He has a huge fear of ukaku ghouls, having been caught in a fight with one shortly after his arrival in Tokyo. This is why he has scars on his back and in between his fingers. It is also why he kills them with extreme prejudice.
-He has respect for any rinkaku ghouls, and will not eat them. He will make a show of force to get them to leave though.
-The CCG originally marked him as "Gasoline", a title earned from the frequency of fires around his murder sites. This was back when he was believed to be a bikaku, and when he was much sloppier with his kills. Now that there's more information, he's considered a low-level threat rinkaku named "Anemone". No CCG agents or detectives have been put on his case, mostly due to the low human body count.
-Jules loves cats and kittens, and would kill anyone who hurt them on the spot.
-He's a huge sucker for anyone with grey-blue eyes.
-Whenever he's about to make the deathblow, he will always twine his tendrils together to form either two torso-width tendrils or one huge tendril. This is just to ensure a clean kill, and to add to the psychological trauma of this he always growls "Hold Still" before striking.
-Jules will feign timidity when around other ghouls, but if his kagune slips out, the gloves come off and you're fucked.
Might make an ukaku and a koukaku now hehehe
