Triggered through concentration as well as either speaking the location allowed, or picturing the location in his head clearly. As he is starting out with this ability low, he is currently just finding that when he wants to go somewhere else in his home, when he passes through a doorway he is automatically there. (Such as, leaving his bedroom and wanting to be in the kitchen... BOOM, already there, no hallway traipsing needed.)

Appearance
Coming to six feet and one inch, Ethan is not only model tall, but model built. He is wiry, toned muscle, making him solid without subtracting from his ‘slim’ frame, though you could never call his features androgynous, like you could in regard to his twin. He has sharp facial features that are strong and masculine, topped with blonder hair, as well as a pair of baby blues. Just looking at him you know there is some Norse blood running in his veins. He has fair skin that is unmarred by piercings, tattoos or scars. He also has a gym membership, which is how he keeps up his toned muscles.

As for how he dresses, it is always fashionable, because his mother would never see him in anything less. Be it jeans and a t-shirt to khakis and polo’s, or suits, Ethan wears designer labels. He tends for a more professional, well put together look, even when casual. And he rarely really dresses down when not lounging around his shared condo. However, when he knows he will be going to the Catacombs, or traipsing into the Underworld, he wears jeans and shirts he is not afraid of getting dirty or having maimed.

Personality
There was never a time in Ethan’s life where he was seen as a pleasant person. Labeled as emotionless he moved through life with an air of not caring what people around him think. It is not like he is actually emotionless, just that he keeps his emotions close and under guard. Growing up immersed in a world of looks where every weakness was a weapon for another to exploit, Ethan learned fast that his friends were never really just his friends, and the only ones he could depend on were his immediate family; his twin, his mother, and then eventually his sister.

As such, one can imagine he is an introvert and a pessimist with trust issues. Not really sensitive, and having an analytical mindset, he has never been one to delve into fantasy. Despite the fact he grew up knowing he himself was a product of fantasy. Surprisingly, growing knowing his father was a God did not inflate Ethan’s ego any, or really effect him much. Knowing who his father was did not change the fact it was still just him, his mother and his twin. Though it did mean that he was never looked down upon for the things he saw.

Other aspects of Ethan’s personality are that he is Stubborn and passionate, though his passion is usually tempered by his cool head and logic. He always holds himself restrained, keeping himself almost in a constant state on being tense, as if he never relaxes. He takes things seriously, leaving him with very little sense of humor not of the sarcastic kind, unless a lot of unwinding is involved… and usually with alcohol.

Ethan also has an uncanny ability, due to his highly perceptive mind, to manipulate those around him. He can read people like an open book should he chose to and twist words until he has them eating out of the palm of his hand, but he largely does not choose to. He is very disinterested in those around him, finding people not worth the bother to poke at. The only one he really utilizes this for is when his darling twin or his baby sister get themselves into trouble.

As for relationships, he became pretty sure he was not attracted to other females early on, thanks to seeing them at their worst as models. Other boys, though, where easier to understand and he has stuck by that, despite his lack of romance meant that he was not suited for relationships in his opinion. One failed relationship means he tends to stray from being pulled into another one. He is happy doing as he does, despite occasionally envying happy couples around him. He has set himself up to live his life alone.

Now to finish this off, I will sum his personality up in a few choice personality keywords: patient, reliable, persistent, loving, loyal, introverted, pessimistic, sarcastic humor, serious, analytical, security-loving, possessive, jealous, slow to rise cold anger, resentful, largely inflexible, protective.
History
Isabella Young was a beautiful woman. Half Italian with long, curly black hair and flashing green eyes, she turned many head even before she began modeling. She entered into the fashion world upon running away to New York upon graduating from her small town home in Ohio. She had the drive and the looks to make it, and she didn’t ever give up. It didn’t matter that she could see things others could not, all that mattered was making the living she always longed to have.

She was in Norway on location when she met him. Havard is what he called himself in the beginning. He was a good man, not overly handsome but striking enough to catch her eyes. For a month she stayed in Norway, extending her stay there saying it was a vacation, but really she did not want to leave him. She was enamored. But then, her manager paid her a visit, speaking of her career, her life, and persuading her to return to the world of fashion. She didn’t want to leave Havard, since he knew so much about her already, but her manager got to her, sparking her determination to advance in the fashion world.

She left Norway, and thought she left Havard behind as well. Up until it became known she was pregnant. She was a relatively popular model, so the fact she was pregnant did not go unknown. She was four months pregnant and sitting on her bed in her bedroom looking at an ultrasound of twins living within her growing stomach when Havard appeared before her once more. She as shocked, but then he explained everything to her. Explained the fact he was a god, and the fact she could see creatures others could not meant that somewhere back in her heritage she had divine blood in her family as well. And then he explained the destiny of the babes she carried within her.

From then until the birth of the boys Heimdall was by her side every night, reinforcing the fact this was not a dream, and also that he did have love for her. However, he did not delude her. They both knew it would end and he would leave her. But he would wait until his sons were born, so he could see them. Just one night with them, holding them, talking to them, caring for them while their mother rested, and then he was gone from their lives. But at least he was there, and at least he himself gifted both of the twins with a middle name.

Ethan Aron Young was the first born by three minutes. Quiet, he did not cry past his initial scream of life. He quieted fast and then looked at the world with blue eyes that seemed to see everything around him. And really, he did. Even then his ability to perceive what happens around him was unnaturally acute. It meant that he learned everything quickly. He was ahead of others his age, recognizing speech quickly, as well as the names of things. He spoke quickly, formed sentences quickly, and upon figuring out walking was the best way to get around he surpassed crawling and went straight to walking. He was smart, gifted they said. Both boys were, really, since both of them shared the gifts of their father. And both of them where striking to look at in their own ways.

Just as Ethan and Evan where fraternal twins, they also developed different personalities, though they complemented each other as only twins could. Ethan quiet and watchful, Evan social and charming. Ethan was always the silent figure at Evan’s side, guiding his brother out of any trouble he got himself in. Even though he was older, he did not take the lead in life. Indeed, if not informed differently, all assumed Evan was the elder of the two, and neither of them really did much to correct the assumption.

They were still young when they gained a father, a mortal one. A man their mother had fallen for, finally loving again. Marrying quickly, their lives took on a noticeable change quickly followed by the addition of a little sister. Ethan loved her dearly, but he still held himself apart from his step-father and his sister. They were both mortal, and neither of them new of the world he, technically, belonged to, even if he did not venture out into it.

As children they entered into the modeling world, though after a few years Ethan asked to leave modeling to focus on school. He liked school more than the fake world of modeling, where people only attached themselves to him because he was the son of the popular DNA model turned Modeling agent. And an agent who had only top models under her belt at that. He left the maneuvering of the sharks to his mother and brother, they were much better suited for it. But, as they got older and Ethan skipped grades he realized he couldn’t just leave Evan behind. Not really. So upon graduating High School at sixteen years of age he entered college to get his MBA, attending Columbia University despite the act he could have easily entered into Harvard or Yale.

It was during his College years that the fact he was a demi-god really stuck out at him. Oh, he always knew, his mother had told them both the truth early on, making sure they never told anyone else the truth, but with the people they associated with they generally did not run into others who were more than they seemed. Not usually. But being out in the world more on his own? He noticed just how much the realm of the gods overlapped with the realm of the mortals. It was… disconcerting at first, but he eventually grew to accept it, and the presence of gods in his life as time moved on.

When he graduated from school with an MBA and a minor in Psychology, Ethan did what he had planned on doing when he graduated. He entered the DNA modeling agency using the connections of his mother, and he took on managing Evan, as well as doing his booking. And Evan was his sole responsibility, which many would agree really was a full time job in and of itself. Evan was a handful, but no one could manage him like his twin. Immediately a difference was seen, as Evan got into less trouble and got more jobs to end agreeably then sour. They declared him talented, like his mother, just like Evan was.

And like that, three years passed. Their lives were mostly immersed in the realm of mortals, rarely venturing out to actively seek their own kind. However, things are changing. Ethan has noticed his abilities have progressed, adding on to his perceptive ability the fact he seemed to use doorways as portals to make… shortcuts around the condo he shared with his twin. But he wasn’t the only one experiencing changes, Eva has as well. So they decided it was time Evan took a bit of a ‘break’ as they figured things out. And as such, both brothers are now doing what they hadn’t planned on doing before. They were actually going to reach out to their own kind to figure out what exactly was going on with them, and learn what they could. Last thing they needed was for something to happen in the presence of others.
