== Backstory ==
=== Early Years ===
Pascal John DeCoutaux was born in the swampy bayou town of Eden, Louisiana to parents Edith and Reverend Huey DeCoutaux alongside his twin brother Charles. The fourth sibling of five, Pascal, or PJ to those that knew him, was a spitfire from the very beginning. Rejecting his father's religious doctrines and rebelling against any and all authority, PJ made a habit of biting the hand that fed him. Life was stern but fair until Percy discovered his sexuality at an overnight bible camp. The first person he told was his brother and closest confidant, Charlie. And although not especially supportive, his twin promised to keep his secret. From there, Percy discovered himself, experimenting with gender, orientation and drugs. That was, until his father walked in on him making out with his history tutor. What ensued was a furious Reverend DeCoutaux mercilessly pummeling his fourteen year old son for the crime of his sexuality in front of the rest of his family. A specifically traumatic head wound suffered during this attack would result in the damaging of his retinas and optical nerve, making PJ have to wear special prescription sunglasses in order to properly see. PJ never forgot the faces of his siblings and mother as they watched him sob and bleed into the living room carpet, nor would he forgive them for their inaction. Not long after, the now scorned PJ ran away into the night, leaving behind school, jobs, and family in search of a place that would accept him
=== Homelessness and Prostitution ===
PJ hitchhiked his way from Eden to New Orleans, and spent his earliest days there sleeping in the cemetery and searching dumpsters for food. Soon, the teen began to sell himself for drug money and hotel rooms. When PJ turned 16, he was raped by multiple of his customers at once. After this, he sought the protection of a pimp, and eventually found himself in the employ of a woman named Alice, who ran an Alice in Wonderland themed brothel. Due to his beautiful appearance, PJ was a popular whore with both men and women, quickly achieving the assigned persona of "White Rabbit". From there, PJ became Bunny, Wonderland's top dancer and escort, as well as Alice's personal plaything. He had unknowingly traded away his humanity to her and was now kept as something less than a pet. He was her property to do what she pleased with. He stayed as Alice's rabbit, suffering years of abuse until he turned 19, when he snapped and murdered Alice with a clock radio, before escaping with a small fortune in a duffle bag. Fleeing from the state entirely and fearing retaliation from his family and Alice's criminal connections, the young PJ left his old identity behind, and changed his name, becoming Perseus Julius Richelieu.
=== The Grey Zone ===
And where else would a runaway fugitive go but the Grey Zone. Slowly, from the shadows, he used that dirty money to build up his fortune, using his cash to invest in his own criminal empire, eventually catching the eye of Bones. Seeing potential in the wannabe kingpin, the billionare took Percy under his wing alongside his nephew, Shutterbug. Through his tutelage, Percy began to grow smarter and deadlier, studying business and self defense to become a better crime boss. Soon, Percy had sharpened his criminal mind and trained his body to the best it could be, and began to build his gang. Treating his employees with the compassion he was never shown, Percy inspired fierce loyalty, and the more people he brought under his power, the money he made. And with the more money he made, the cockier he became. And as his power and empire grew, his criminal activities began to expand, eventually purchasing a nightclub known as The Cupid Club, a porno studio known as Eros Productions, and a small cocaine operation run out of Miami, Florida. 
== Relationships ==
=== Apollo and Bucket ===
Percy has a massive crush on Bucket's older brother, Apollo, and this most certainly does not vibe well with her. So, due to this, Percy on multiple occasions schemed up multiple ways to sneak the gentle giant out on dates, most usually thwarted by his evil little sister. As hard as it is to believe, Percy has primarily sexual feelings towards Apollo, and usually becomes flustered when in close proximity to him.
=== Eileen ===
Eileen and Percy met over two shared passions: getting absolutely wasted and singing karaoke. After that, a surprisingly strong friendship formed as they began to get to know each other, Percy growing respect for her tenacity and humor. He tends to let his facade fade when around her, as he finds her to be a true friend. 
=== Tulson ===
Percy interacts with Tulson on a solely professional level, always making sure to pay his taxes on time after an incident involving said tax man throwing him through a window after attempting to offer sexual favors in exchange for not paying. Percy doesn't as much respect Tulson as much as he fears his sheer strength and willpower.
=== Dante Kidman ===
Dante does NOT like Percy.
=== Shutterbug ===
Percy's relationship with the photographer is odd to say the very least. After having lost multiple employees to his mannequin creating skills, Percy has entered a working relationship with him: he manages pornographic photoshoots for him on Monday-Thursday and in return, he gets pains and doesn't get the piss beaten out of him. Their relationship however, has blossomed into a beautiful friendship, with the pair making up two thirds of Da Three Wisemen.
=== Ozzy Bosko ===
Percy's one and only, Ozzy is the twink's main squeeze and boyfriend. The barber is one of the few people the pimp truly trusts to cut and style his golden locks, and in turn, has made Ozzy a partial owner of his nightclub, The Cupid Club. He is incredibly protective of Percy, and is also known for his intense jealousy. If Percy is the brains behind the Heartbreakers, Ozzy is most certainly the muscle.
=== Kelly Rousseau ===
Percy's philosophy concerning the police is that they should be neither seen, nor heard. This is usually accomplished the old fashioned way, through bribes and coercion. Padding a pig's pockets is a certain way to keep the wheels of justice from rolling towards you and your businesses. But depending on the cop, it's a hell of a lot easy to squeal. That was the situation Percy found himself in when he found himself being investigated by Kelly. After he found that neither threats to her safety or monetary compensation made her waver in her determination, the pimp offered to squeal on some of his rivals, the up and coming police officer bagging some sizable catches, all while she turned a blind eye to him swooping in and claiming their territory. Aside from business, Percy is rather apathetic towards the woman, seeing her as an occasional nuisance more than as a friend or colleague. ACAB, and all that shit.
== Personality ==
Percy is incredibly sassy and confident, having no problem with being reckless at the expense of others. Quick to a comeback, usually with an emphasis on dirty jokes, he loves to shit talk, not stopping until he has had the last laugh He's also rather narcissistic, peacocking and bragging about his appearance and self importance, bolstered by his wealth and his loyalty of his employees. However, that persona can easily fade when Percy is either stressed or angry. When pushed to his limit, his fiery temper is the fist to show. 
However, deep down, Percy actually does have a caring side for the people he cares about, mainly his friends and employees. Having been a sex worker, he understands the fiscal and emotional needs of his employees, and does his best to provide for them, as long as they in turn repay him with their loyalty and respect. He has even on occasion been seen to be incredibly generous, whether it be buying all of his patrons a round of drinks or providing for the occasional television watching bum.
== Abilities ==
Despite popular opinion, Percy is an incredibly strategic thinker when it comes to his own self interest. He is able to study and identify slight mannerisms, personality traits and techniques of an individual within minutes of meeting them, and uses said advantages to charm people into liking and believing him, as well as out think and identify the weaknesses of his opponents in battle. He is also a master manipulator, pulling strings behind the scenes of other pressing matters in order to eventually come out on top.
He is also trained in the use of multiple firearms, fencing/swordplay, and various forms of martial arts, specifically the art of Capoeira, better known as Brazilian dance fighting. He is incredibly agile and dexterous when in battle, and will only fight unarmed when there absolutely no option left. 
== Weaponry ==
Percy has quite the personal armory hidden around his club, and rarely, if ever, leaves his building unarmed. His primary weapons are comprised of "Jack and Jill", two gold plated AF2011-A1 handguns that both shoot a .45 AC round; "Romeo and Juliet", two gold plated Mac-10 fully automatic machine pistols that also shoot a .45 round; and a sharp rapier hidden inside of his pimp cane.
