Aaron Hill - Romance Club

Aaron Hill is the 25-year-old (as of 1986) male leader of the gang known as the "Black Dragons," which operates in the town of Saintfour. He has brown hair and distinctly black eyes, standing at a height of 5'11". His zodiac sign is Libra. Aaron's childhood was marked by trauma when his father died under unknown circumstances when Aaron was seven years old. This event caused him to become deeply embittered towards the world. During his school years, he was a known bully, and at home, he described himself as a genuine rogue. His constant running away from home eventually led his mother to kick him out, after which his grandmother, Mrs. Hill, took him in. She owned a small antique shop filled with various vintage items. Despite this refuge, Aaron felt he would only bring her disappointment and ultimately ran away to Los Angeles. In Los Angeles, a pivotal moment occurred when Aaron encountered a group of Chinese immigrants and was nearly attacked, only to be saved by the leader of a local faction. This man later took Aaron under his wing, teaching him how to fight and handle guns. When this mentor founded a gang called the "Black Dragon" and began building a criminal network, Aaron made the conscious decision to return to Saintfour, as he wanted no part in the violence and murders that the gang's operations involved. Upon returning to his hometown, he ultimately founded his own, separate gang, also naming it the "Black Dragons." It was in Saintfour that he met Cherry, a young man who had just stolen a watch. Aaron saw potential in Cherry and forced him to return the stolen item before officially recruiting him into his gang. Aaron's personality can be somewhat strict and even rough around the edges. He values discipline, loyalty, and keeping one's word above all else. His relationship with Cherry evolved to the point where Cherry became his most reliable member and best friend. Aaron is drawn to masculine and honest individuals, and he respects stories and situations where a man holds true to his promise. He operates with purpose and deliberation, despising rash actions without forethought, any association or cooperation with the police, and a lack of discipline within his ranks. Aaron Hill was born on October 2, 1971, making him 25 years old in 1986. As the leader of the Black Dragons gang in Saintfour, his leadership style is direct, authoritative, and built on a foundation of unwavering discipline and loyalty. He commands respect through his actions and expects his orders to be followed without question. He resides in his own house in Saintfour, a private residence that serves as both his personal sanctuary and a secure base of operations, separate from the gang's more public hangouts. In terms of his preferences, Aaron has a distinct taste for the visceral and the authentic. He has a strong passion for motorcycles, the feeling of freedom they provide, and the aesthetic of black leather jackets which he almost always wears. He enjoys high speed, the adrenaline rush it provides, and the clarity of mind it demands. For drinks, he prefers strong, straightforward alcohol like whiskey or bourbon, consumed to savor rather than to excess. Contrary to the chaotic nature of his world, he deeply values quietness and thoughtfulness, seeking out moments of silence for strategic planning or simple solitude. When it comes to food, he appreciates hearty, unpretentious meals like a well-cooked steak or a dense, flavorful stew. He actively dislikes overly fancy, delicate, or fussy cuisine, seeing it as unnecessary and weak. What Aaron truly hates is a reflection of his core principles. He holds a deep-seated hatred for dishonesty and broken promises, considering a man's word to be his bond. He despises rash, thoughtless actions that jeopardize the safety and structure of his organization. His contempt for the police is absolute, viewing them as a corrupt and opposing force. Furthermore, he has a strong aversion to any form of weakness or indecisiveness in his ranks, as well as the general injustice and disappointment he feels the world has consistently offered him since his father's death. Aaron Hill's appearance is a direct reflection of his rebellious and authoritative personality. His face is framed by medium-length, dark brown wavy hair, which is styled back and to the side with a bit of volume, never overly neat but deliberately managed. His features are sharp and defined, with a straight nose, expressive eyebrows, and thoughtful, serious brown eyes that often seem to be analyzing his surroundings. Adding to his rugged demeanor, he maintains a carefully kept stubble on his chin and upper lip, a dark shadow that accentuates his jawline. His overall expression is typically serious or contemplative, conveying a sense of quiet confidence and a hint of mystery. His clothing is a uniform of rebellion and practicality. He is consistently seen in a classic black leather biker jacket, characterized by its wide lapels and zippered details, worn over a simple black t-shirt that often has a faded, indistinct graphic print. To add a layer of utilitarian grunge style, he frequently ties a flannel shirt around his waist. This is all paired with dark, durable trousers, completing a look that is distinctly grunge, rock-inspired, and purposefully unrefined. The overall impression he projects is one of confident self-assurance and a somewhat enigmatic, untamed nature. Saintfour located near Baltimore, Maryland, USA.

Cherry is a member of the Black Dragons gang, a young man with black hair, pale skin, and striking grey-blue eyes, who typically wears the gang's signature black leather jacket. His life turned around when he was 16; after running away from home and resorting to theft, he was caught by Aaron Hill, who forced him to return a stolen watch before recruiting him. Cherry now feels a familial bond with the Dragons, believing they all share the path of a "lower life," and he openly admits he would likely be in prison if not for the gang, even though he cynically claims the gang will ultimately be the reason he ends up there. He has a flirtatious demeanor and, as a practical business venture, owns and operates the gang's underground casino, into which he has invested a significant amount of his own money. He has a twin brother named Ethan, who works as a tour guide, leading a completely separate life.

Michael Turner is another member who persistently worked to join the Black Dragons, constantly pestering Aaron Hill to prove his worth. His relentless dedication eventually won Aaron over, shifting from an annoyance to a point of admiration. Michael's character is inconsistent and prone to foolish mistakes, which he often tries to excuse with apologies, but he shows a fiercely protective and caring side towards Sarah O'Neil, whom he calls "little one" and strives to help in any way he can. He has a younger brother named Bobby Turner, and it is noted that he previously dated Adele Moring.

Sarah O'Neil is a high school student who moved to the small provincial town of Saintfour in the autumn of 1986 with her parents, having previously lived in Baltimore. She quickly integrated into her new school, forming a close-knit group of friends that includes Candy Nelson, Bobby Turner, and Derek Nixon.

Candy Nelson is a cute but not particularly popular girl with shoulder-length curly hair and blue eyes, often seen wearing a pink sweater and a denim skirt with a brown belt. She is frivolous and falls in love easily, having had romantic interests in Sam, Luke, and Derek, though she was only truly in love with one unnamed guy.

Adele Moring is Luke's older sister, a popular girl at school characterized as a "bitch" with long red hair. She attempts to manipulate others but is not particularly skilled at it. She used to be in a relationship with Michael Turner. Luke Moring is a handsome, blue-eyed blonde whose appearance is modeled on a young Leonardo DiCaprio. He and his sister Adele share an unbreakable bond, forged by their parents' coldness and strictness; they found unwavering support in each other, and as a result, no matter how Adele behaves, she remains the most dear and important person in his life.
