Michael Belgrave is a gentle soul that is forced to adapt to a rapidly changing world. Born with a keen intellect and a comionate heart, he possesses a silent strength that aids in his artistic sensibilities. He's a dedicated veterinarian, driven by comion for all living things (but he won’t deny his unease for bugs!, and finds solace and creative expression in the delicate art of paper crafting.

He navigates the world with a thoughtful demeanor, with a wistful longing for a world that embraces both progress and kindness. Micheal wants to be a pillar of for his friends, ensuring their well-being and the well being of their animal companions.

Micheal yearns and aches to understand the creatures in folklore and urban legends, documenting them in his Bestiary. He is skilled in both regular and supernatural animal care. Albeit, more so skilled with regular animals— as those are the most common types to enter his care.

Growing up in a household with a pragmatic doctor father and a free-spirited dancing instructor mother shaped Michael's worldview. His father instilled in him a scientific curiosity and a respect for factual evidence, while his mother nurtured his artistic sensibilities and a grew his appreciation for the expressive power of movement and emotion.

When Micheal was seven years old, a traveling circus temporarily stationed itself on the fringes of his town. Driven by whimsical curiosity, Michael snuck in, only to discover a hidden menagerie of sickly and mistreated animals. He helped the circus's veterinarian, a gruff but good-hearted woman, care for the animals. Even the ones that struck him as unnaturally odd.

However, his parents discovered this and warned him from the lower-class circus performers to focus on his studies instead of his infatuation with the animals. This solidified his ion for veterinary medicine.

Micheal bought a house in England after seeing a job opportunity over there. He had some residual family left in England, but they were estranged towards each other, and he knew that being an American in England would not get him the best treatment. He just hoped it did not affect the animals that needed to be cared for. And that the love of one’s animal companion mattered more to them than their prejudice.
