Personality


On the surface, Colette is soft-spoken and polite as well as warm and compassionate. Motivation and cheerfulness are also a part of her daily routine. Her biggest personality trait is her calm, "zen-like" nature. Colette rarely loses her composure and is always there to offer support and wise advice to anyone who needs it. She's an intellectual and it's not surprising that she's intelligent and studious as well as logical.
Colette is an extrovert who's always on the go, participating in many events, activities, and hobbies. She's even-tempered and doesn't get violent unless she's defending herself or her loved ones but she does have a breaking point and it isn't pretty if she reaches it. Colette is humble and good-natured as well. She's very loyal and dutiful towards her family and friends even to a fault which can definitely work against her. Colette is also very generous, never afraid to help people with financial matters.

But for those who truly know Colette, they see a very different side of her. She's highly passive-aggressive and displays anger, hatred, bitterness, and stress in a suppressed but still very detectable fashion. Colette is filled with melancholy, rancor, and sullen indignation primarily as a result of the various trials and tribulations brought upon her as it mostly relates to her family. Due to her overwhelming stress, unforthcoming nature, and tendency to hold her feelings in, she has been known to express herself in ways that are unhealthy, passive-aggressive, and at times even volatile and explosive. Colette has a sarcastic streak a mile long and snapping/blowing up at people isn't uncommon for her to do. Her reputation in the community has been a major reason for her restraint and unhealthy expressions of pent-up rage but she has her limits and her facade is very capable of slipping away and revealing the true bitch underneath.

Very intuitive, Colette always has some idea of what's going on without things being directly revealed to her. At the same time, she often feigns ignorance to certain matters that she's well-aware of. Colette is indeed quite two-faced when she's going through conflict with someone. She acts loving and content with them when in public but in private she becomes bitter and saturnine towards them. Crossing Colette is not a wise thing to do as she will scheme and plot to make them as miserable as possible or if she's angered enough, she'll lash out at them and hurt them to the fullest.

Family, Friends, and Foes

Father: Huang Fu Tran | Lawyer | Alive
Younger Brother: Aaron Tran | U.S. Marine | Alive
Younger Sister: Cassandra Tran | Paramedic | Alive
Grandfather: Duong Tran | CEO and Owner of Tran Toy Company Inc. | Deceased

Past: From the moment Colette was born, her path was set. Her grandfather was the owner and CEO of Tran Toy Company Inc which became popular nearly overnight and was well known for its philanthropic policies. As a child, Colette was very close with her grandfather, visiting him frequently and even giving him ideas about new toys which only made the company expand even more.

As Colette grew older, she began to rebel slightly and came out of her shell, wanting to be herself instead of pretending to be something she wasn't. She began to participate in sports and quickly became popular because of her kind nature. At the age of 15, she met the man who would later on become her best friend: Eugene Donovan. Despite being from two different worlds and having very different personalities, they clicked instantly although not everyone approved of their friendship. Colette's father was wary of Eugene due to his background and nature which only caused her to defy him and get closer to Eugene in the process.

On the day of her high school graduation, Colette received devastating news that her grandfather passed away from a heart attack. After his funeral, his will was read and Colette was given her grandfather's entire estate. Despite being overwhelmed by it all, she moved into his mansion soon thereafter and started college, going into business per her father's request since he didn't want anyone else besides her becoming CEO of the company.

While in college, Colette had on and off contact with Eugene due to many things happening in his life that he kept a secret from her. Although she worried about him, she drowned herself in her studies and the company to stay busy. She quickly got her Masters in Business and by the time she was 25, Colette became CEO of Tran Toy Company Inc just like her grandfather and father wanted.

Personality


Eugene is very rough around the edges due to his neglectful and painful past. He's very rebellious and doesn't like being told what to do, also showing aggression to mask his pain and hide it from others. He's short-tempered, impulsive, and merciless as a result of having to deal with so many cruel and despicable people throughout his life. Eugene is generally misunderstood and because of this, he doesn't open up easily to people and is mostly a loner, used to be judged very quickly by others. He's very street savvy and can read people expertly, able to sense danger and deception a mile away. Lying to him is a very foolish thing to attempt.

Underneath Eugene's bold and cocky nature, he has a joking and kind side, even bordering on selflessness. He's cultured and very artistic to the point where some people would consider him a genius. When it comes to the people he's close to, Eugene will do anything for them and is very protective and caring towards their well-being. He's a great person to have as a friend as well as a fearsome person to have as an enemy. 

Eugene has a soft spot for kids, especially those that are disadvantaged and will do anything to help a child in need. Although Eugene is quite chivalrous towards women, the disabled, and elderly, he has his moments where he can lash out and simply become unbearable to be around. He's very passionate and persistent and doesn't believe in beating around the bush which means he's quite impatient. Eugene is also brutally honest and blunt which gives off the impression that he's a jerk but he simply believes that honesty is the best policy. He's quite promiscuous and has no qualms about sleeping with various men and women but he isn't irresponsible about it and makes sure to protect himself.

Family, Friends, and Foes


Family:
Mother: Fiona Donovan (nee Cryer) | Stripper | Deceased
Father: Derek Donovan | U.S. Marine | Deceased
Twin Brother: Elliot Donovan | U.S. Navy | Alive
Uncle: Wyatt Cryer | Alive
Aunt: Amanda Cryer | Deceased
Grandfather: David Cryer | Judge | Alive
Grandmother: Katheryn Cryer (nee Hargrave) | Lawyer | Alive

Past: Eugene's mother died of a drug overdose when he was 6 and his father committed suicide when he was 8. Since no one would claim him and his brother, they was taken to a nearby orphanage. Growing up there, Eugene hated it for many reasons. Some of the caretakers there were abusive to him, even sexually molesting him at some points. Eugene would often run away to an abandoned warehouse where he would draw and practice on his artwork.

Every time someone tried to adopt Eugene or Elliot, they wouldn't take the other twin with them and they got up the courage to run away and lived a life on the streets when they were 12. Eugene and Elliot did everything they could to survive and Eugene went as far as to prostitute himself which eventually lead to him getting raped on several occasions.

At age 15, Eugene and Eliot reached a breakthrough when they came into contact with their maternal uncle Wyatt and subsequently reunited with their mother's family, not having seen them since they were babies.

Eugene and Elliot were taken to Orlando, Florida and they began to attend high school, Eugene quickly gaining a reputation because of his attitude and artistic prowess. He also met Colette Tran and became best friends with her, finding solace in her presence and being attracted to her. Eugene came out as bisexual during this time after word came around about him briefly dating another male classmate named Tyrese Agnew which caused him to lose a few friends but Colette stood by him regardless.

Throughout high school, Eugene's bad boy activities became more and more mischievous, being introduced to drugs, alcohol, gambling, and street fighting while his art became more well-known and he began to create a portfolio with the intention of becoming a tattoo artist. When his graduation came, tragedy struck. Eugene's aunt Amanda had committed suicide and he found her body. He was devastated and didn't attend as a result.

After getting his diploma, Eugene fell into a deep depression, becoming addicted to cocaine and dilaudid as well as drinking heavily. His art was affected as well since he drew more and more frequently, using it as another outlet for his pain and sorrow. He eventually cut contact with Colette, not wanting her to see him like that.

Eugene was quickly noticed by a man named Hiroto Yukimura and became his apprentice in his tattoo shop Inkopolis Tattoos. Despite the 12 year age difference between them, their relationship eventually became romantic and sexual in nature. Because of this, he attempted to keep his drug and alcohol abuse a secret from him but it was discovered when he tried to commit suicide by overdosing on cocaine.

Hiroto sent Eugene to therapy and rehab, not wanting him to ruin his career and talent and concerned for his well-being. Within six months, he was clean and began to have a more positive outlook on life, even contacting Colette for the first time in years and rekindling his friendship with her. By the time Eugene was 22, he was a licensed tattoo artist with a degree in fine arts and a minor in business.

Unfortunately Eugene was faced with loss yet again when Hiroto died from stomach cancer two years later. In his will, he left his shop and assets to Eugene, calling him the love of his life and his one true friend. Thanks to Colette, Eugene began to take over the business as Hiroto wanted him to and Inkopolis Tattoos became a much bigger success under his leadership and he became even more well-known.
