**Early Life**

Dylan was born in Athens, Greece, but soon moved to Ukraine with his father and older brother when he was only a few months old. When he was six, he had decided he didn't want to be a girl, but his father pushed girly things on him because he refused to allow his daughter to be a boy. They moved to Russia not long after and six years later, Dylan told his brother, Klaus, who accepted him as a boy and, in private, would call him Dylan, rather than Lucia. However, Mr. Van Asten would not allow it and would regularly beat Dylan for not being a perfect daughter. When Dylan was fourteen, his father forced him to go out with his boss's son, who sexually abused Dylan. Dylan told his father this and was ignored or told to go along with it. Dylan was raped by his boyfriend at prom when he was 15, so he ran away and got to Camp Trinity. However, everyone thought of him as a girl because of the way he was when he entered the camp, and he soon ran away again and found Eden.
