PERSONALITY DESCRIPTION | Sawyer is a little devil in disguise, he's a wind up merchant that knows just which buttons to press in order to wind people up. His family is all about image and Sawyer keeps up the image but doesn't necessarily like it and is a nuisance when the family isn't in the public eye. Sawyer wants to be a little more himself rather than just another Gaunt, he even at times wishes he didn't have a power that would at least make him different. Being fourteen Sawyer's father is starting to get him acquainted with business related things under the watchful eye of his older brother, Sawyer tends not to bother with it and often misbehaves. For the young man sitting still and all the stiff cooperation that is required at corporate events winds him up and he tries to avoid them sometimes hiding away if necessary. He usually plays along with Brielle's schemes and he's of the opinion that the side of Brielle that Raven sees is an act and that his sister is deep down a nice person but has been destroyed by the weight of their family name. Sawyer is somewhat a child in a fifteen year olds body. He's playful, childish and downright immature. He also gets in a bad mood when he's forced to do something, its a little akin to tantrum thrown by a toddler but less screaming and crying, he's been spoiled all his life and has gotten used to having things his way which makes him get whiny when it doesn't. He doesn't even try to solve problems himself, he runs to Brielle, Rich or Mummy. Sawyer is fairly nice though if you put aside that he'd probably make you want to throttle him, he's really closed off as well. Sawyer attends all his classes but again this is for show and very often terrorizes the teaching staff and his fellow students. His relationship with his parents is some what clinical and forced, he doesn't know if real familial love actually exists amongst the Gaunts |
ALL THE SMALL THINGS
POWER | Electronic Communication |
POWER DESCRIPTION | Sawyer's power is far more subtle and less dangerous than his twins. Sawyer can intercept, interprate and send electrical, digital and radio signals. So if you send a text message Sawyer can intercept it and reply without actually having a phone. You don't even have to be texting him. He can also detect radio waves and intercept the messages sent by them. His power also gives him the ability to stop web pages loading, tune televisions and prevent someone receiving email ect. Essentially anything that wireless he can prevent it communicating with anything else. Sawyer's power is strictly limited to wireless devices and networks. Just like any wireless device he doesn't always have a 'signal' and in areas with High hills his powers are often blocked out. He can't yet turn his power off, this affects his sleep when to many electronic devices are on nearby. He also struggles when there are to many signals passing at once, he actually goes physically deaf and can only hear the signals. Sawyer usually uses his power for blackmail or to terrorize other people after all he can read and hear your most intimate and important conversations without even trying and you'd have no idea. Sawyer is also always giving off a Wi-Fi signal so as long as you're near him you'll always have wifi. |
SPECIAL ITEMS | Sawyer has no sentiment to anything. The only thing he keeps on him is his watch which is mechanical. He can't keep his phone or anything on him since it gives him a headache even when switched off. |
SOMEBODY THAT I USED TO KNOW
CHARACTER HISTORY | Being born into a rich and influential family wasn't ever going to be easy. Both Sawyer and his twin sister are the last children born to Richard and Elizabeth Gaunt. They looked like the perfect American family, there house even had a white picket fence. It was exactly the image the Gaunts wanted and that's what they got. Sawyer was the quiet, blue eyed, dark haired boy. This happy family image was definitely forced and while this made his twin become deceitful and manipulative, it made Sawyer want to everything he could to wind the people around him up and attempt to get his parents to see that their image is a fake one. He was definitely a troublesome child and threw many tantrums when things didn't go his way. Long hours standing in front of crowds and shaking people's hands often had the young man bored. Sawyer would wonder off and try and find something to play with or to do but would soon be dragged back with harsh reprimands. It didn't deter him and fifteen minutes later Sawyer wondered off again. Sawyer loved to play especially in dirt but Mrs Gaunt hated the child getting dirty because she was never sure when the paparazzi would be about. It often got him into trouble when he tore through their pristine house covered in dirt. Soon enough Sawyer was also sent to a strict boarding school in England, to him it seemed his parents wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible. He wished he could stay with Raven and be Homeschooled but no arguing got him that. The boarding school was full of rich and influential children and some did bully Sawyer, he was small and not very strong either. However they soon learnt not to mess with the Gaunt boy after he got his revenge by hiding their clothes while they where showering after a lacrosse practice. Sawyer was smug for months and he continued to terrorize people that irritated him. His teachers found him difficult to teach as he seemed to spend more time winding both them and his classmates up. Sawyer wasn't surprised to find that his siblings got shipped of somewhere new, he just didn't expect to be shipped off himself. He suspected his parents hadn't planned to ship him off, but once the rest of his family had ended up at Ashford it would look bad if one child wasn't. He also didn't think that Ashford would accept him but they did, he didn't realise he had powers but according to the people that enrolled him he was giving off a constant radio signal. So he ended up at Ashford with the rest of his family. He's heard it Raven's fault that him and Brie ended up there but Sawyer isn't so sure. |
