Fanon:Martin Appoell

Martin Appoell is the first and only child of Vamsi and Paladin Appoell. Descendant of the Ideal plantsim, grandson of Victoria Appoell. A warlock, a famous chef, a child prodigy. And last but not least a great husband and a wonderful father.

The Grandmother
Martin was born in Riverblossom Hills into a wealthy family. His grandmother, Victoria was the local sensation. She gave birth to quintuplets – twice! This event attracted people - the press and the public as well. 9 children out of the 10 left their mother after they graduated. Only Paladin stayed with Victoria, with his soon-to-be wife, Vamsi. Vamsi was pregnant, but so was Victoria! I haven’t mentioned the father of Paladin, nor the husband of Victoria, have I? I might have left some tiny information out: Victoria was a plantsim. So practically her quintuplets are not quintuplets after all. She just gave birth to 5 plantsim babies. One after the other. And when they grew up and left their mother she became lonely and then decided to have more children. 5 more babies. But years later she became a normal person again and this time she was pregnant for real. She was expecting Gabe O’Mackey’s child. But that’s another story, stick to this one. Paladin and Vamsi got married. Few months after the wedding little Martin joined the family and soon his uncle, Andrew followed him.

Prodigy
Martin was everybody’s favourite, the most popular kid at school. He was nice, funny and the smartest little fellow in the whole neighbourhood. He was learning all the time – not precisely from books. He was looking at everything from a different angle. He found even the smallest things fascinating. He could just sit in one spot the whole day and just think, observe the world little by little, piece by piece. You might think: how could this kid become popular? Sitting by himself all day long. Not talking to anyone. Well, I did not say that. The others were actually looking for his company. They wanted to become as clever as he is. He told them stories, mainly his own theories and fairytales which were instructive not just entertaining. And no, he did not cast a spell on them, he wasn’t a warlock back then. He was just extremely charismatic from the very beginning.

Tragedy
When he was 15 his parents died in an accident. Grandma Victoria decided to leave town with her son, and grandson. The boys agreed. They moved to Sunstonetown to forget the bitterness, to leave behind their sorrow.
