{ Jon bernthal, cismale, he/him } Is that NATE COOPER? I heard the FORTY EIGHT year old belongs to the FAMILY as HEAD OF SECURITY. I’d stay away from them if I were you. I heard they were ABRASIVE, but they can also be CALCULATING, so proceed at your own risk.

Basics.

> born first to a doting, loving couple, Elaine and Rocco Cooper would welcome another six kids before they decided their family was complete. Never on losing sight of the little people they were raising or fostering a warm and welcome home - Nate never needed anything.

> very quickly Nate took on the role of older brother with a certain ease that was almost comical. It was as if he'd been born for it. Born to help guide and nurture the myriad of siblings that came after him.

> with the whole world at his fingertips, Nate couldn't see beyond Los Angeles. It was his home - his family was here. He couldn't havr thought to ask for anything more. An endearing concept, if so many didn't think that he was boxing himself in. He was bright, confident and had the whole world at his fingertips - and yet, Nate never felt the desire for more.

> staying, when he could have experienced it all, made all the sense in the world when he met Evelyn and within the year announced they were expecting. Two people had never been made more perfect for each other than Nate and Evelyn, and the prospect of a child between them promised an ever after that most people might have dreamed of.

> but Los Angeles holds just as many nightmares as it does dreams, and two weeks before Evelyn was due to give birth, both she and Nate's mother were collateral in a driveby shooting. By the time first responders arrived, they were gone, their unborn child with them.

> the trauma drove him to drink, fight and gamble. The well rounded, reliable man he was buried beneath the horrific weight of grief and loss. He racked UK thousands in debt, running loan sharks in circles until half the city knew his days were numbered but when Enzo Barone plucked the twenty two year old from the streets and pointed him towards the light - a promise of purpose. It was difficult not to cling to it.

> over the years, Enzo became the epitome of an older brother/father figure to Nate. Where he'd lost touch with his own family, The Family grew to take their place. His love and loyalty as they helped to open his eyes to a life that wasn't yet over. And it wasn't, by far.

> Eventually, it was impossible to find one without the other. Enzo didn't do business without Nate within eyesight. They'd long since discovered that Nate was often first to spot things that weren't right - a gut instinct that proved worth honing as the years passed.

> A decade slipped by and it became necessary to guard a great many more of the Family members, and despite his own reluctance, Enzo requested that Nate take more birdeye view of his position. Instead of offering his expertise to only the protection of the Don himself, he became the overseer of the Family and their Security team. The lives and wellbeing of The Family as a whole now entrusted to him.

> the recent discovery of the board members all dead, and Enzo himself missing, Nate is expecting the weight of the world to come down on him.
