Childhood and teenage years

Newton's conception was a tale of adultery. His father was working away when he met a Vietnamese prostitute named Vinh. Needless to say money was exchanged and that should have been that however the contraception had failed and she got pregnant. Vinh had decided that she would give birth but give the baby up for adoption until she found out she was having a boy. Her mind cast back to a conversation she had with James in which he explained that as much as he loved his daughter but he had always wanted a boy but his wife had a pre-mature menopause and could have no more children. In her naivety she thought a baby boy would be a wonderful surprise for a customer who was so gentlemanly and who she had admittedly fallen for in such a short space of time. To her it was a whirlwind romance but that couldn't have been any farther from the truth.The baby was born and named Hien, within 42 hours of the birth she jetted off to England having found his address on his business card where she turned up at his door, baby in arms.DNA tests were taken for proof and many arguments ensued about the betrayal and in typical rich people fashion they thought it best to sweep it under the rug and keep on a happy face as if everything was fine. They kept the child, Vihn was deported back to Vietnam and they legally changed Hien's name to Newton Vandercuth and agreed to never tell him about his real mother and how he came to be.James was a successful business man working as a world renowned lawyer whilst his wife Lilian owned her own publicist business so needless to say they were absolutely minted. They lived on a private estate in a gated community, the house lavish with priceless art and the finest interior decorating. Newt and his sister Primrose were home-schooled by a private tutor, his sister was the well behaved and intelligent one but Newt never really had a passion for book learning. He found it boring and he struggled to keep up with his brain box sister. He liked to learn by doing but his tutor did not approve of practical experiments so he started conducting them in his own time but he was learning things schools would never dream of teaching such as what worms taste like and how much did jumping from different heights hurt. At the age of 12 he found he was quite the adrenaline junkie and liked to create his own brand of dangerous fun, this also included pranks. Most of the staff would humour him seeing it as he was just being a little boy but his mother and father heavily disapproved of such silly behaviour and the fact Newt had grown a hatred towards smart, stuffy clothes. Some would guess that it initially started as a desperate cry for attention as his father was never home and his mother was very open about her distaste for the child that wasn't hers.It was at 17 that Newt took things a step too far with one prank in particular. He had raised tadpoles into frogs in secret in a bucket and when they were fully grown he had let the box loose in the middle of his sister's birthday party. Within an hour of being caught his bags were being packed and he was sent off to live with his grand-parents. His grandparents agreed to have him and tried to encourage his creativity eventually helping him come to the conclusion that he wanted to become a stunt man. They allowed him to wear the clothes he wanted and gave him the freedom he needed to try and grow as a person however he had MUCH growing to do.When he was 23 his grandparents announced they wanted to travel the world but they wanted Newt to continue living there so it was being used and they didn't have to lay off any of the staff, of course he accepted having obtained his very own party mansion but with this whole new level of freedom Newts experiments got even more wild usually involving large scale stunts that resulted in broken bones and a lot of alcohol and drug use. In his eyes he was living the perfect life.

PERsONALITY

Events/AUs

Newton is a danger loving adrenaline junkie with an excellent sense of humour which some might find overbearing at times as he refuses to take anything seriously. He spends his days drinking, getting high, pranking his friends and practising stunts and usually records them in the hopes he can one day become a stunt man although apart from filming himself and putting the videos online he had made no progress towards that goal.One of his downfalls is that he is not very intelligent, he never really listened to his tutor and the multiple head injuries probably didn't help his case at all. He also gets irrationally annoyed when people use his full name "Newton" he always thought the name never suited him and prefers to go by "Newt" he also likes to tell people to call him Vandercunt (a dig at his father) or Craig (because he just likes that name).Newt always felt like an outcast in his family not only because he was so different to his uptight, snooty family but he also had his suspicions that he was adopted based on personality and the fact everyone in his family had blonde hair and blue eyes and his hair was black and his eyes a dark brown. He was also openly rejected by his mother which he always assumed was because he wasn't as smart as his sister.He cannot stand to wear smart clothes and much to his parents dismay tends to rock up to fancy gatherings in ripped jeans and scruffy tops.In recent years Newt had found himself addicted to several substances the most dangerous being Heroine and this has taken priority over his aspirations to become a stunt man.
