New or changed Outsiders and Highlander Character
Alexander and Shane Curtis - are the twins. They are almost five years old. They are lively toddlers who were placed in a foster family after the accident of their parents.
Mrs. Curtis alias Fiona Macleod - (Sister of Duncan Macleod) is born 1594 in the Highland village of Glenfinnan, Scotland off the shores of Loch Shiel. She is the mother of Darry, Sodapop, Ponyboy, Alexander and Shane. She was married to Darrel Curtis Sr.alias Brian Patrick Shea.
Darrel Curtis Sr.alias Brian Patrick Shea – was born 1101 in Tulsa Oklahoma. 1873 Brian befriended Duncan and Connor Macleod. They worked for a while on his ranch. Fiona visited her brother Duncan and fell in love with Brian. They married the first time 1874.
The Curtis parents were Immortals and after their car accident another Immortal beheaded them before they came back from the death. Before the Curtis parents died they determine Duncan Macleod as guardian for their minor children. Fiona and Duncan were always very close even though he lived in Europe. They would talk to each other for hours on the phone. They would speak Gaelic and the boys never understood a word. She kept Duncan informed about her children.
Duncan MacLeod - called also Mac or Donnchadh (his Gaelic name) was born in 1592 in the Highland village of Glenfinnan, Scotland off the shores of Loch Shiel, and he is still alive. He is an Immortal. Part of a supernatural race of ageless humans whose origins remain a mystery, Duncan's first 'death' came in 1622 when he was still a young man. Thought mortally wounded by the rest of his clan, Duncan miraculously returned to life shortly after dying. Believed to be evil by his superstitious clansmen, Duncan was banished from the MacLeod Clan.
He didn't know that he was an immortal until he encountered the legendary Connor MacLeod, his kinsman from a century past. It was Connor who taught his fellow clansman everything he would need to know about his immortality. Connor would teach Duncan that the only way for an immortal to die was to have his head removed from his shoulders. When this happened in combat with another immortal, the winner would receive his opponent's energy, experience and power in a spectacular transfer of electrical energy known as the Quickening.
This was the nature of the Game, as the Immortals called it. A constant battle for supremacy between immortals that, at the time of MacLeod's first death, had already been going on for thousands of years. Still, with immortals encountering one another from time to time, they were all still awaiting the time of the Gathering.
Originally believed is that in the end only two immortals remain to fight for the Prize: The right to rule mankind for all eternity. In the end, there can be only one. May it be Duncan MacLeod... the Highlander?
Connor Macleod – (Conchobar is his Gaelic name) is born 1518 in the village of Glenfinnan on the shores of Loch Shiel and raised by his father Ian Macleod and his mother Caiolin.
1536 Connor's father is killed by the Frasers, a neighbouring clan. Connor is killed by the Kurgan but is rescued off the field before the Kurgan can take his head. His swift and remarkable healing causes his village to accuse him of witchcraft and banish him. His friend Angus spares him from trains as a blacksmith with a man named MacDonald who lives in Glencoe. When the old man dies, Connor begins courting MacDonald's daughter Heather. They marry.
1540 Juan Sanchez Villa-Lobos Ramirez teaches Connor what it means to be immortal and prepares him to meet the Kurgan in battle. 1542 Ramirez is killed by the Kurgan.
1625 Returning to Scotland, Connor finds Duncan MacLeod after the battle of Glen Fruin. First he is Duncan's Mentor and Teacher and later they are brothers and friends. Conner teaches Duncan all needed skills to survive as an immortal.
Matthew McCormick - was born in 1222 in Salisbury, England. He died in a jousting tournament in 1255 after being run through with a lance; after becoming Immortal his first teacher was the Celtic warrior Ceirdwyn. Later that century he found new Immortal Cory Raines and took him as a student.
In 1859 he taught another student, a slave named Carl Robinson a friend of Duncan. Matthew freed him, taught him about being Immortal, and advised him to go north after the training was finished. Matthew McCormick is on and off working as an FBI agent. Matthew is a very good friend of Connor and Fiona. Duncan never encountered Matthew before but heard a lot of stories about him from friends and family.
Grace Chandel - born 1372 has used her talents of being a nurse, therapist and doctor throughout history for over 600 years, a skill that got her stoned as a witch and put her on the path of being immortal. She avoids fights because like most female immortals who lack the skill and brute strength of a man, she will have to rely on her beauty and her brains if she is to survive. Man or woman, avoiding a fight is a sure way to stay alive.
Grace spent the next 100 years on the Amazonian plantation in Brazil with the Immortal Carlos Sendaro. Discovering his possessive intentions, she flees away from him, changing her identity every few centuries. She then flees into the arms of Duncan MacLeod, whom she met centuries earlier while helping a woman give birth. Duncan happened upon her and was told by her to either let her do her work or kill her there. When Duncan does not kill her, she takes him in as a loyal friend. It was Duncan that warned her of Carlos, but being stubborn she still went with him. Grace is a very good friend of Duncan and Connor Macleod, Ceirdwyn, Matthew and the Curtis parents.
Ceirdwyn - was born in Eastern Celtic Britain in 29AD. She grew up to become a warrior and fought against the Romans. In 60AD, she died while fighting the Romans in Boudicca's army and became Immortal. She soon meets her first teacher Roman General Marcus Constantine who teaches her about her heritage. Marcus quickly fell for the beautiful woman and convinced her to come with him to Rome.
The two lived together until 73 AD when Ceirdwyn decided to follow her own path of Immortality. She later returned to her native Britain and meets her first Pupil Alex Raven in 75 AD. In 1255 she later meets her second student Matthew of Salisbury (Matthew McCormick).
Ceirdwyn is a very good friend of Duncan and Connor Macleod, Grace and the Curtis parents.
