Holiday Twins

Floyd Mason Holiday, Jr. and his twin brother, Lloyd Jonah Holiday are the sons of former supervillain hench-people.

Their parents, Floyd Sr. and Meredith Camden-Holiday used to work for the amphibious supervillain calling himself Black Mako. After years of successful crimes, the Black Mako Organization was brought down by the (now deceased) superheroine, Captain Valor, and the paramilitary governmental body that polices (or TRIES to police) superhuman activity, called UNICORN. Some of Black Mako's people escaped the action, one of which was Floyd Holiday, Sr. Unfortunately, Meredith Holiday was captured, tried and incarcerated in Key Lucifer Prison, just off the southern tip of Florida.

Since then, Floyd Sr. has laid low, and raised his sons as best he could. Taking several odd jobs and frequently moving around, he has, to date, been a car salesman, a blackjack dealer, a magician's assistant, a stuntman and a limo driver - also undertaking the random mercenary job here and there to keep his skills sharp, and score a quicker, larger payday. Currently, he is the proprietor of a brothel just outside Las Vegas.

When his sons were about 16 years old, he parted ways with them, as he was almost discovered by UNICORN, and was rather nervous about going down and taking his sons with him. He gave them both a wad of cash and bade then to go out to a place that they might be able to get 'lost'. After a couple of years of travelling from place to place, living by their wits and skills taught to them by their parents, eventually they wound up in The Pacific Northwest.

Nottingham, Washington was, both geographically and ideologically about halfway between Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington. The twins settled there, only to find the city was almost mind-numbingly boring and normal, yet, somehow swimming in low-level weirdness and strange states of mind. Setting themselves up as freelance graphic artists while taking temp jobs at places like the local T-Shirt shop, and local courier services, Floyd and Lloyd get by pretty easily. It's the fish-out-of-water feeling of being two of the very few Black men in this oddball suburbia that causes them the most problems. That, and, every once in a blue moon, something TRULY weird will happen and the two of them seem to almost always get caught in the middle of it.

One of the theorized reasons that the weirdness happens around the twins is that they are mildly psychic. They can communicate with each other telepathically over a moderate distance. The closer they are to one another, the louder and clearer the communications are. It is for that reason that they are under surveillance by a shadowy, clandestine operation calling itself "NiMBuS". Under the guise of the "Nottingham Multiple Birth Society" - a social club for twins, triplets, etc., NIMBUS monitors them for latent psychic powers to use and exploit for their own gain.

Still, the twins have made some good friends since moving to Nottingham, and they are fiercely protective of them.

Unbeknownst to them all, as, currently they have never met, Floyd and Lloyd are cousins of Rex Riley, on their mother, Meredith's side. Meredith is the younger sister of Rex's mother, Wenonah Camden-Riley.
