Sweet William, the Italian youth, often seems to be strange to others, but his peculiarities are in no way threatening to those about him. He has inclinations towards hedonism (currently restrained due to culture shock), artistic behaviour, and generally appears well meaning if a little inclined to bow to authority due to socialisation. Sweet William has no affiliation with any group, although the Victorian Retrotech Collective appears to have taken him in and some Hemotopians are damn curious. He is in nature distant, religious, intelligent despite his technology level, frequently depressed, submissive and somewhat guilt-ridden. He seems to be nearly exclusively homosexual (although very fond of Camilla), something nearly unknown for most Puzzleboxians. |

Careful work by Frostbyte has ensured that William has developed a learning-based kink - in short, he's aroused by acquiring comprehension of his world. Sweet William is, unsurprisingly, usually early and eager for lessons. |

Behind William sways what appears for all intents and purposes to be a lithe reptilian tail tipped with a stinger, the delicate scales the same shade as his hair. Despite this ominous addition, the young man is otherwise in appearance as innocent a creature as could be imagined. His clothing is slightly too large for him in the neoVictorian 'raggamuffin' fashion, a white shirt with unbuttoned cuffs dangling at the wrists, a vest edged in fur and heavily patched trousers. His feet are hidden by simple leather shoes, his hands tipped in decorative claws that are filed to polite finish. In his mouth, usually inclined to a sweet smile, his teeth are pointed to harmless effect.
What is known from Messian databanks is the following: History
Sweet William resides in Elysium and the Manor house. He commonly spends his time there, although he has been known to visit other Warps and particularly the Park. One place he refuses, utterly, to go to is Strange, due to the danger of turning out like his other self and his general hatred of the place.
Strange William lives in the Library in StrangeWarp, presumably with Tiskel, his parent-child-lover (sometimes it's better not to think of such things). Strange William does go to other warps, reasonably frequently, and appears to deliver library fines and books. Sometimes he acts as a Secretary there as well.
Strange William, the Viral Host, is most definitely 'Sweet' (psychoactive scented) and sometimes his Sweetness seems to be a terrible danger to those around him. Strange William has and number of common StrangeViral traits, including but not limited to hebephrenia, paranoid delusions, megalomania, manic or impulsive behaviour, sociopathy and needlessly cryptic speech. Strange William also claimed, frequently, to be innocent, sexually naive, and kind - occassionally while actively torturing other Messians. He might even believe it, but is most certainly a Hemotopian. He is notably omnisexual in the common manner of most of the Mess, with the usual Hemotopian inclination towards sadism.
