Lewis Crescent

* Lewis was born in Ellatora, ?.
* Parents are Arnold & Alice Crescent.
* Alice left her husband and son for a wealthier man, Clive Strummer, when Lewis was 13.
* Arnold agreed to sign the divorce papers but only if Alice promised to send Lewis birthday and Christmas cards. She does send cards and letters for these occasions but there is never any real love or genuine care within the words. Most of the time the cards and letters are filled with descriptions of how great Alice, Clive and their two children's lives are. Lewis hasn't opened any cards in years.
* Throughout his school years Lewis was never really a part of any group. He was a loner and an outsider, preferring to do be by himself. He was often the victim of bullying but never really endured much of the physical kind of harm.
* At 18 going on 19, the year after graduating high school, Lewis works as a kitchen hand in a diner called Carl's Food Bar. He hasn't enough money for collage, his grades were fairly average and he hasn't found that career to strive for and work towards. He has hobbies and interests but he believes that he is not good enough at any of them to make a profit, not that any of them can generate a profit. He enjoys his job and the people he works with but knows it's not something that he wishes to do forever. He has a thing for one of the diner's waitresses, Cassandra, a 19 year old black girl who is very friendly, sweet and outgoing.
* When not working at Carl's he works at his fathers store, A. C. Florists, for free. The store isn't financially doing well and hasn't been doing well for a while. Due to this 'volunteer' job Lewis hardly has a social life. He does from time to time hang out with some people from work but these occasions are rarely.

1. Lewis wakes up and goes to the gym. He has been going regularly since finishing high school but has failed to make any difference to his physique.
2. Lewis starts his shift at Carl's, working in the kitchen. While working and during his break he talks with his workmates and admires Cassandra, one of the young waitresses. He is invited out to join some of the workers but says that he has to help out at his fathers store.

4. Lewis arrives at his father's florist store, walking in on his father Arnold having a conversation with two men. Though his father keeps quiet about these things, Lewis knows that his dad has borrowed money from unsavoury people to stay afloat. The taller of the two men says that they will be back in a week. They both leave. Lewis doesn't ask any questions and just goes about his work. He and his dad eventually shut the shop. Arnold heads home, which is in the stores upper levels, while Lewis heads over to his grandmothers restaurant, the Full Table.
5. During his break, Lewis is approached by his grandmother and they eat together. Lewis tells her everything that is going on, including the men who came to his fathers store.
6. The restaurant finally closes and before Lewis leaves, his granny presents him with a gift. It is a necklace bearing a strange metallic face as the focal point. She explains that it was made by an elder in her village back home when she was a child; a sort of good luck & protection charm.
7. Lewis is out jogging when he comes across an illegal deal involving drugs being made. Lewis is seen and pursued by the men involved. He is shot several times before being executed. The men leave the scene. As Lewis breathes his last breaths, he is approached by a man. The man, referring to himself simply as Silvers, calmly talks to Lewis, asking if he would like to live. Taking Lewis' unclear response as a yes, Silvers holds out a mask, explaining that if the mask accepts him, it will not only allow him to live but it will also bestow upon him other powers and abilities. However, the one chosen by the mask is bound to the mask and each barer is allowed only 15 years of life. Once the fifteen years is up, the mask will consume it's owner. At this point, a new barer must be discovered before the current one dies. Silvers tells Lewis that to utilize the masks powers he will have to shout "Bestow". The mask is placed on Lewis' face and he manages to say Bestow.
