Levi Hamilton

LEVI HAMILTON is a HOMOSEXUAL MALE DOCTOR. They are 24 years old and are a WARLOCK. They live on the SECOND WARD. Everyone says that they look like GRANT GUSTIN, but they don’t really know why. They are played by SYKE.

Childhood
Born on December 4th, 1991, Levi grew up living only with his father, and on occasion his paternal grandparents. His mother left his father when he was 5, too young to remember her very well. He was quick to learn to care for himself when his father took to experimenting with mind altering potions and traditional alcohol, but even before that the man was more interested in his work than in his son.

From a young age his father's Alchemy interested him. When his father was still well he mentored Levi, showing him tips and tricks for potion making and transmutation, and even as the man's condition deteriorated Levi continued to study his notes. As he grew more invested in the making of potions he began to find interest in growing and gathering plants himself as well.

Seeing what happened to his father and caring for him also made him empathetic to the problems of others and inspired him to become a traditional medical doctor and focus his alchemic research on thing that aid and heal.

Adulthood
Leaving home was a difficult decision for Levi. After caring for his father so long he feared leaving him might result in his death, but his connections in the community from his volunteering and kindness helped him to find someone to care for him in his absence.

Levi's father told him repeatedly that pursuing a traditional medical degree in hopes of becoming Physician was pointless, but he was set on it.

He began attending University of British Columbia in 2008, electing to live on campus during the school year to avoid distraction. He completed a bachelor's degree in 2011, and passed his MCAT that April in time to begin his M.D. Undergraduate in the fall of 2011, scheduled to graduate in 2015.

When the Anti-Supernaturalist movement started in 2012 there was a group formed on his campus that was quite vocal about the cause. It made Levi uncomfortable, but fo the most part he didn't worry. He was careful to keep his Alchemy secret, and for the most part remained unnoticed.

In March of 2015 as he was nearing the end of his medical degree Levi's small collection of Alchemy supplies and books were discovered in his dorm. By then most of the noise about the movement had died down, but there was still a small group of pssionate supporters, including some of the university staff. The university found it grounds for immediate expulsion and he was removed before earning his degree.

Levi tried to be content returning home, resigning himself to care for his father an volunteer in the community. When he returned home however, his father was gone and the house trashed. As far as he could tell his father had been able to flee. A lot of the Alchemy equipment and books had been vandalized. He did his best to restore and salvage what he could.

It was hard to feel safe after that. He stored away all that he had saved somewhere safe and went to live with his grandparents. For months he tried to settle in, but he felt constantly watched and at risk. In July of 2015 he heard of the Safehouse for the first time. He followed the rumors and did his research.

Levi applied for a Doctor's position at the Safehouse. After being hired Levi moved into the second ward on August 30th, 2015.
