...Julius Claude Fortescue*
*The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee. *

...personal*
personality A devout Orthodox Catholic since childhood, Julius never wanted to be anything but a Priest. He is mature, intelligent, and pious. But he is also close minded, chauvinistic, hypocritical, and vain. He is self righteous and uses his affluence to manipulate those around him. Julius considers himself a learned man: He is fluent in Latin, French, Italian, and English, has read many books, and has studied the bible with an intensity beyond his years. He is a lover of art and tasteful music, and enjoys a glass of strong wine from time to time.
Even when he was young he was obsessed with the idea of Heaven and Hell, Purgatory, and Damnation. He believes strongly that God is a vengeful, jealous, but just God; and so is not apologetic when he shares these same traits because Man was made in God's image. He can be cruel, but in all honesty he believes all that he does is right If something seems wrong, he will find some way to justify his behavior. Being a goldened tongued fellow, he is adept at making others believe that he only acted in the best of interest.
Julius has an excellent memory, and uses it for his studies to great effect. He was a good student in school.
past Julius was born in Paris, France. His parents were wealthy, though what exactly they did was never really disclosed to Julius's memory. As a child Julius was solemn, never wanting to play with the other children. On more than one occasion he had told his Mother that he was going to the park, he really went to Notre Dame Cathedral and read quietly. When he was fifteen going on sixteen, his parents died of severe food poisoning, thus leaving their two sons orphans. Prior to his parents death, Julius and little Alexander were not terribly close, their personalities being so different. Julius was a shy and quiet child, where as Alexander... was not. A sense of responsibility over flowed Julius, and he decided to be his brothers keeper.
The boys were put into the care of many families, but they were moved around a lot due to Alex's restlessness and Julius's intolerance. For example the first family they went to live with did not appreciate being called Dirty Heathens whenever Julius spoke to them. They eventually moved to the states, where the boys settled into their new life until Julius turned eighteen. He received his parents inheritances, and got an apartment. Unable to deny Alexander anything, he admittedly spoiled the boy.
The brother's got on well, despite their differences. In fact, their main battle was Julius attempting to convince Alexander to go to 5:00 am mass with him. However, for the most part they left each other to their own devices.
Julius went to college for four years, as required to become a Priest (his most coveted of dreams), majoring in theology. He became a Priest when he was 24 years old, and it is a suiting life for him in all ways but lust. Being a young, virile, handsome man lust is a great issue for Julius. He is, however, such a great actor that no one would really be able to tell.
present At present Julius is Father Julius at St. Mary's Holy Catholic Church. He lives his life by a very strict regiment, waking at five a.m. and going to bed at ten p.m. every day. He is popular with his parishioners, being a charming and eloquent man. His youth and fire appeals to the younger members of his audience, while his traditional orthodox views appeal to the older members.
Julius supports Alexander, though the brothers seem to fight more often due to Alexander's scandalous behavior and lack of repentance. As Julius grows older (and more frustrated, if yeh know what I mean), he is lacking the patience to deal with the mess anymore. But he is still indulgent, especially since his little brother knows all the right things to say to get Julius's goat.

...literature*
book title The Hnchback of Notre Dame
backstory Claude Frollo was a highly intelligent but morose young man who was orphaned along with his infant brother Jehan when their parents died of the plague. His studies led him to become the Archdeacon of Josas, which is his position during the events of the novel. He rescues Quasimodo, a deformed hunchback child whom he finds abandoned on the cathedral's foundlings bed. He adopts him, raises him like a son, cares for him, and teaches him a sort of sign language when Quasimodo becomes deaf. Frollo is a respected scholar and studies several languages, law, medicine, science and theology. However, he becomes infatuated with alchemy, which leads townspeople to spread the rumor that he is a sorcerer. He also believes strongly in fate. Frollo also has strong sexual passions, though he is a celibate due to his station within the church. These passions erupt in him through his contact with the beautiful Gypsy girl Esmeralda, and eventually they prove his undoing.
