Physical Description: Gyle is a boy of average height with auburn hair and dark brown eyes. In theory he is the exact same height as his twin, Clayton, were it not for Clay's abysmal posture. Gyle's hair has been left to grow out, and while curly it looks rather groomed. The only other difference physically between him and Clay are his eyes. They're shaped slightly squarer than his brothers, and were used as an early identifier between the identical babies.

Personality: A childhood of familial fame and fortune have shaped Gyle into one delightful tween. His mother, Gloria Shine, had done her best to stay in the spotlight, pushing Gyle and Clay to mere afterthoughts. Being raised in her shadow had instilled Gyle with a deep hunger for recognition. Mainly from Shine herself, but any acknowledgement from those with perceived power or status was suitable to the young boy. As such, he did his best to project a surface leveled prim and proper son deserving of everything his mother had withheld. Due to the papering he'd received by staff in his mothers stead, the prim and proper Gyle was hiding an entitlement you'd expected of from worst wealthy pure-blood. However, his definition of "hiding" was rather loose, and slight offense or perceived inferiority in the other party would be all it took for Gyle to show his true nature. His brother would be the only one the facade would truly drop around, the only one who truly knew what it was like to stand in his shoes.

Biography: Gyle and Calyton Lamont greeted their mother on the sunny morning that was the 4th of May 2014. And the 23 year old, stage name "Gloria Shine", could not have been more happy for their arrival. Her happiness was less derived from maternal instincts, than from the excitement of returning to the stage. Her pregnancy has been an unsightly blip on an otherwise budding acting career for the pureblood heiress. Within days of the birth, and with the help of the best mediwizards around, Gloria was ready to shine once again.

Gloria Shine was the stage name for one Gloria Lamont, of the Lamont pureblood family. Despite her parents wishes, Gloria was born for the stage. Immediately upon graduation, the young witch used every connection she had to land a spot on stage in a notable play. With determination and ferocity, she would climb to stardom higher and higher, only slowing down to have her two boys - the product of a one-night stand.

Gloria's lust for fame meant that the identical twins, Gyle and Clayton would be raised primarily by the estate's staff. One Peggy Patterson would be the primary nanny for the twins, doing her best to fill their lives with the support and warmth they missed from their mother. Her one weakness with the duo came in the form of discipline. Due to their class and wealth, the boys had learned early that the larger the fuss the made the greater the results. Peggy had too much love for the boys, and too much fear of Gloria to truly correct their ways. That was until Roy McDougal began the boys education at the ripe age of 5. His authority and stern yet paternally warm approach did wonders to soften the worse of the boys flaws.

First Instance of Magic: At the age of 6, Gyle hated it when Clayton looked too different from him. They were identical twins after-all, Gyle believed they should be the same. This gave any change in Clay's appearance the potential to cause a total meltdown from Gyle. This directly clashed with Clay's love for theater and his love for playing dress-up. A changed hair color from Clay would be met by nothing but blind rage from Gyle. Rage so serious it would produce flames from atop the boys blond locks. To his nanny's horror, and Clay's utter amusement, the flames were in fact real, and would quickly consume his actual hair before sputtering out. When Gyle realized he was now bald, the fit would begin again, rage replaced with tears, while Clay's laughter filled the room.
