History
The only known history of William (meaning history that you are going to get without extensive searching and resources/influence in Manhattan) is that he was seemingly been around the city for years. He's been known somewhat of a underground hero, someone who comes around just when he is needed, and only stays until he's not anymore. Typically a sign of good luck for the downtrodden, his presence tends to bring great luck for whatever hobo's he attaches himself too, and they tend to...stop being hobos after their time with him.
However, besides this, he has been an affiliated part of the Twilight Detective Agency as a detective for some time. He was a contact and friend of the previous boss, and of course one of the current boss. Will and Mercade tends to get along, but have been known to openly argue with each other over anything from minor to important things, but even then never abandons the older detective. Strings of strange events follow the Hobo Lad, all of them typically good things.
Of course, bad things have been known to happen to those who...have ticked him off. However, they tend to learn very important lessons afterwards.
Personality
William is a very 'go with the wind' kind of person. He doesn't stay around in one place too long (Manhattan is a large place, fyi) with the exception of the TDA. While he's willing to help people out, he never lets himself be boggled down by responsibility, unless he wishes to be, and does not let other people force responsibility on him.
Will tends to say what is on his mind, almost at all times, and has little restraint. He's honest, and tends to avoid lying, but has been known to withhold information when not asked. Beyond that, Will has a unique perception on life, and the world. Beyond this, Will tends to show a great deal of concern for his fellow man, willing to throw himself into trouble to help someone, and will fight bitterly to save people.
He also has some sort of weird...connection and hatred for the Heartless.
Abilities
Fate Sight: Sometimes called the Mystic eyes of fate perception, Will can see the lines of fate and connections between people. Those with important fates are particularly strong on this, and it tends to reveal important things about a person through abstract representation superimposed on Will's sight. Those with strong connections to magic might have glosomer strings, those with heavy ties to the darkness might have strands of darkness spun through their pattern, and those heavily invested in light might be very bright to Will's eyes. Also, they tends to show important connections to things, thick strands showing strong connections, weaker strands showing less connected things. Flaying lines tend to show degrading relationships, and darkening strings tend to reveal hatreds. Ultimately, what Will see's is up to the other player...he can see as much or as little as you want. It's a exposition tool, and nothing more!
Luck Control: William is in tune with the rise and flows of lady luck. He can win any game of chance the participates in with little effort, and anything with a luck component tends to always favor Will. Will can also, with some effort turn the tides of fortune up or down for others, but the effects are typically short lasting.
Unaging: Will does not age.
Parkour: William is very in touch with Urban areas, tending to be able to easily know where to go, where to find things, and run extremely fast through areas where typically it is very hard to get anywhere. Fighting William in a city is an extremely bad idea, and tracking him in his home turf is near impossible.
Hand to Hand Combat: William's skill with hand to hand combat is a combination of self teaching, and various boxing and martial arts techniques he has learned over time. He has, also, learned to combine this with his manipulation over luck. Those that he strikes tend to find themselves hindered by random events...shots go wild, falling items get in the way, they trip over their suddenly untied shoes...
Streetwise: William is very knowledgeable with getting information, or finding things on the street. He knows where to go, who and how to talk to, and how to hinder others.
Detective: He's not as good as one as Mercade, but has learned tricks from the man and the last boss of the TDA.

Riku | Forces of Ruin | Shadow Lords | Mysterious boy who dropped on their heads. Will and he became friends, and Will promised to help him find his other friends. Will currently is depressed about freaking up. |
Deidra | Force of Restoration | Twilight Detective Agency | A Gargoyle, and fast friend. Though she thinks he doesn't know her deal...he somehow does. He's not sure why, but hasn't said anything about it. |

Celina Duvalis | Force of Restoration | Twilight Detective Agency | A witch who Will has known for sometime. She is matronly, even to him, despite the fact he's older than she is. However, Will does eventually listen to anyone that can cook. |
Avira | Force of Restoration | Twilight Detective Agency/VALKYRI | Will is sure she's hot for Mercade and vice versa. She's strong and resolute...and Will respects her determination. |
Cirra Constantine | Force of Ruin | Archadian Empire | A Judge of the Arcadian Empire. While she's a bit uptight, Cirra has proven that she is a friend. Will is going to try and get her to chill out. |

Acquaintances
Name | Faction | Affiliation | Summary |
---|---|---|---|
Gilgamesh | Wondering Force | --- A strange individual with no ties to anything but his dog. His dog is a great guy, and often showers affection on him, because Will loves dogs. | |
Rapunzel | Wandering Force | --- Has the best hair, and the ability to use the best weapon: Frying pan. Will likes her attitude, and her kindness. | |
David Xanatos | Wondering Force | --- Their patron, and often a pretty okay guy. William can't help but think that he has another agenda...but as long as he helps them, and doesn't screw anyone over...he can't really say anything. Still, he has proven nothing but a good ally. | |
Faris Scherwiz | Forces of Restoration | --- Pirate King, and this is sooooo cooooooool to Will, if not for the fact that he'd have to get on the ocean again. No sir, he don't like that. Other then that, someone else to complain about Gilgamesh too. | |
Merilan Yursalin | Forces of Ruin | --- Journalist, with WINGS! She seems nice enough. Will totally wants to get a story out to the world! |
Adversaries
Name | Affiliation | Summary |
---|---|---|
Mica Melchiott | Forces of Ruin | --- Ruler of a Casino, filled with people who seem to have lost everything to live for...except to gamble more there. Mica's use of the heartless puts Will off, but her attitude on the value of things and her general attitude in general has made an Enemy of hobo lad. |
Others
Name | Affiliation | Summary |
---|---|---|
Dr. Facilier | Forces of Ruin | --- He has friends on the other side. Smooth talking and southern...he was okay with him until he tried to twist words towards Rapunzel. However, he is saved from being his enemy by sheer fact that his shadow is one cool cat. He's watching him though. |
Sköll Ulfang | Forces of Ruin | --- Looks like Kaze, but less bright. Not sure what to make of him...friendly, but kinda...seemingly self interested. He can't blame him for that, but...he can't help but think something tragic is going to happen someday. |
Kaze | Forces of Restoration | --- Bright...too bright. Will was nearly blinded by looking directly at him. However, due to his hobo like nature, Will feels that their fates are intertwined...rather Kaze wants it or not. |
Priel Aylin | Wondering Force | --- Kind of a self interested person, but minus the kind of. Will wonders about her, but ultimately...can't do anything about the choices of another. |
