Ronald McLaggen

Ronald Benson (later McLaggen) was born on February 7 in a poor family in Austrich. He was the only child of the family. His parents treated him well and always looked after him.
One day, the circus came to town. Ron was now 8 years old and went through the crowd secretly and without his parents knowing because they wouldn't let him go anyway. The tickets were too pricey for them.
Ronald watched the show eagerly. He admired the dancers,the acrobats, the people who ran around with animals after them and the people who could shoot fire from their mouths. Ronald was so happy and impressed,that he wanted to go and tell the clowns how good they were. However, Otis Spaulding caught him and put him in a cell. Ronald screamed loudly but no one could hear him from the circus music around them.
Ronald's parents soon found him and were almost going to set him free but the clowns caught them and killed them ruthlessly in front of their child, whose tongue was cut off, so that he wouldn't scream anymore.  Ronald was made to shoot with bow and arrows using his legs. It was really tough for him but eventually he learnt it.
When the Werevamps were brought to the circus, Ron felt an instant connection with Gloria McLaggen, who looked almost identically to his own mother. He wanted to speak to her but he had forgotten how to do that even if his tongue was still in his mouth.
He was always hiding in his wagon and drinking juices not wanting to look any of the big scary clowns. One evening Gloria and Cormac found him and talked to him. They promised to take him away with them and take them as their son. The little boy was super happy and started hugging them tightly.
Soon after, the Werevamps group ran away from the burnt circus and Ronald started living with his new family. His sister made his tongue grow back to normal and his new parents helped him learn to speak again. Jane McLaggen even introduced her friends from the palace Clarissa Drago and Sophia Ozera to him and he had more friends than ever before.
