Throughout history, the descendants of the cross clan have served the church for generations. That is how its name was granted. Cross; those who carry out the will of the gods and their divine will. Throughout the many years, the Cross family, through serving the church and planting their places within political roles have obtained a large fortune. Fast forward to present day, and that same fortune and influential power still exists within the business world.
As a child, Nathaniel lived an ordinary life. His family were strict, yet loving. His mother doted on him and his three siblings, and his father remained strict, yet caring as he raised them, teaching them in the field of politics, and other such academics skills. When he was eight, the family decided that they would leave the safety of the age old Cross estate and move to Japan, to better serve his fathers business needs. They settled in a mansion similar to the original Cross estate in America, on the outskirts of the city, surrounded by greenery all around. The security of the large estate kept them safe, and inside its grounds, the family were secluded from the outside world, care free. Nathaniel spent his days lazing around, play fighting with his brothers and getting whatever he wanted from the manors maids and butlers. He had no care in the world; utterly care free in his safe haven. This style of life continued until he turned seventeen, then everything change
It was on the day of his seventeenth birthday. He woke early that morning to a cold day, frost covering the grass and windows of the estates grounds. Yet something unusual stirred on that day, and as he rubbed his eyes, slowly adjusting to the sunlight, something was terribly wrong. Lazily wandering out of his room, he was met with the site of the staff and other workers running around franticly, screaming in fear. Smoke had slowly begun to fill the house and a blazing heat lingered in the air.
He wasn't sure how it happened at the time, but it later became known that the Cross estate, had been hit by a raid, and housing a large number of rare objects, the Cross estate was an obvious target for such an attack. Nathaniel rushed out of the house, trying his best to rescue as many remaining people from within the house as he possibly could. Those who could, gathered outside the manor, watching in horror as the inferno slowly brought the building to the ground. Yet it was clear, from inside the burning blaze, people still remained, everybody knew it, they were simply powerless to do anything about it.
For the servants who stood watching, most of them had worked for the Cross estate for years, it was a cherished place for them, but when the day ended, it was still nothing more than a place of work. For Nathaniel, this was his home, and more than that, the rest of his family were still missing, still inside the blaze perhaps? He would not wait in faith of his family being okay. With such a thought, he rushed inside the building, careless of the dangers of doing so.
Holding his sleeve over his mouth and nose, he made his way through the burning mansion as best he could, keeping low and moving fast. He found his way to the main hallway, where his elder brother lay collapsed under a fallen beam, too heavy to lift on his own, and far too hot. His back was crushed and the little life left within him was slowly leaving him. A silent glance passed between the two, and with what little life was left in him, Nate's brother ordered him out, leave the house and save himself. Nathaniel had little choice, he picked himself up from his brothers corpse, running for the exit. The loose flames singed against his wrists and clothing as he escaped, yet he ignored the pain of the flames as best he could. He made it to entrance of the manor before he collapsed. When he came to, he was in the hospital, He had sustained burns that day, and his body would show it for the rest of his life.
A year passed since that day, life seemingly returned to normal. Nathaniel had inherited all of his family's vast fortune, yet in the process had lost everything. He became antisocial, a recluse, and in his misery, he decided to leave all of his memories behind, moving to the city, he used the money to buy himself a low key, cheap apartment, well under his budget. He began to attend public school for the first time in his life and in the process, he found himself in with the wrong crowd inside and out of class. In his spare time, he began to peddle drugs for a local crime syndicate, as a means of pushing his way into the underworlds information network and to perhaps, eventually gain knowledge about who caused the fire that killed his family, a foolish errand perhaps, but it was something that he felt he had to do, to satisfy his own feeling of failure towards his family. Meanwhile, safe within the confines of his private pod, he escaped into the digital frontier, free to explore the vast expanse of the digimon world away from anyone who would seek to hassle him in real life.
Personality - As a child, Nathaniel was a typical boy, raised in a loving yet strict family of noble aristocrats. His family was typical, and he was a happy, carefree boy who spent his days lazing around the grounds of the Cross Estate. He was playful and a prankster, always trying to be the best at everything and joking around, he didn’t take anything seriously and his light hearted, carefree approach to life was something which those around him admired. He didn’t care much for school, but always did his studies when told to. Then his life was stolen from him.
Over the years, Nathaniel slowly began to lose the love for life that he once openly expressed each day, watching those he loved slowly decay and perish. He never coped well with his situation, and faced with the reality of his altered existence, he slowly began to lose his grasp on society, and he withdrew into a deep, dark, endless cave of emotional depravity. Now, the only thing left of Nathaniel’s past self is the occasion cocky or smug comment he will make at people. He is stoic, emotionless, rarely expressing any form of humanity outside of his own home. He holds darkness in his heart, and he is consumed by a deep hatred for his own kind, and to this day still searches for the creature that took everything from him and turned him into what he is.
Generally, Nathaniel comes across as a very scornful, spiteful and arrogant person, the thing he hates more than anything is religion and irrational thinking, and he tends to look down on those who are unable to consider the situation and draw logical thoughts from it, and he tends to ignore the existence of those who fail to do so. More than anything however, he simply does not care for anything, he has no loved ones, and nothing he cherishes. His actions are completely selfish. He does whatever he needs to do to keep himself alive, regardless of the implications for other people. In short, he has very little humanity left, and his daily life is based upon an instinctive and animalistic need for survival at best. Other than his digimon, there is nothing else he really cares about.
