    Alternative Settings

    Although Fox was created for a post-apocalyptic, steampunk, sci-fi setting, he can be easily adapted to fit other settings.

    In worlds in which time travel does not exist, or in which Fox did not discover time travel, he continued on in his own linear timeline, as most people do; he continues working with technology, attempting to fix the world he was born into. His mother, Quinn, dies around the time he would otherwise have discovered time travel.

    In non-sci-fi settings, his parents' organisation may not have encountered extra-terrestrials, and Fox's alien parentage will be disregarded, as will any non-human parentage in non-fantasy settings.


    Childhood
    Born to Marigold Quillen-Elvin, better known as Quinn, Fox has never known who his father was. That had never particularly bothered him, really, because there were three people it could have been: Newton Fletcher Athansios, Whitney Lovecraft, or Valentine Elvin I, and he was raised as the son of all of them, and of his second mother, Haley Reine. Haley and Whit died when Fox was four years old; Newt and Val disappeared soon after, and Quinn fled with their child to find safety.
    Despite the situation he was raised in, Fox had a happy childhood. He was doted on by his mother and raised on stories about his other parents' bravery, and the work that they did together as members of the Graco organisation, hunting extraterrestrials and supernatural creatures that threatened humanity, and protecting those who posed no threat.

    His mother taught Fox in the skills he'd need to survive, and to continue the work of Graco: Quinn's speciality was in hacking, and Fox received a top education in computer science, but he was also trained to fight, in medicine, and in showing humanity and mercy. The young boy took to these lessons well, eager to learn, and although he was never a particularly strong fighter - fixing things, whether machines or people, was always far more his domain - he can hold his own in battle, if need be. He's far better at range, though, with a gun or other ranged projectile - his aim is excellent.

    Time Traveller
    In his mid-teens, Fox found a strange device in a pretty wooden box tucked safely away in a cupboard; he fixed up the watchlike device and discovered that it was a functioning time travel device, abandoned there by his father, Newt, before he disappeared.
    Fox, fifteen and without great impulse control, started using the device to take, essentially, joyrides through the universe. Eventually, he visited his parents, meeting his fathers and other mother for the first time, and seeing Quinn when she was younger. They quickly established a very fond relationship, Fox helping them out frequently.

    That the cloud and the cold and those jeans you have on
    And you'll gaze unafraid as they sob from the city roofs
