Dislikes: Paperwork, storms, people who hurt Cyrus, junk food, distractions, conflict, and wet environments.

Personality: Reese is a bit on the quiet and serious side, preferring to focus on his current goal than getting distracted in mischief. He is often quick and to-the-point with his words. Because of this, Reese tends to come off as a loner, but the truth is that he actually gets along very well with most of his associates. He has a tendency to say whatever won't make someone mad in an attempt to avoid conflict and bickering. Reese tends to come off as stoic and unemotive with little energy, but will occasionally break this when in the company of close friends (Cyrus and Marin). Because of his general lack of emotion, his companions will claim that all of his smiles, no matter how rare, are genuine. Despite siding with the villains, Reese is often apologetic to the heroes, even saying that if things were different they probably could have been friends. He tends to be more moral than his companions.

Home: Animal Planet

History: Sometime before the start of the story, Reese was saved by Cyrus from a terrible storm that nearly killed him. With no where to go, Cyrus offered to let the lizard live with him. Ever since the day, Reese has considered Cyrus to be his best friend and the closest thing he has to family. During his time has Cyrus's companion, Reese has learned all about what happened to the elves' home world and how Cyrus believes that helping Glades with allow them to live in peace once again. Despite joining him in the evil organization, Reese remains skeptical towards Glades and Shadow-cat's true goals.

Reese isn't sent to fight the heroes for quite some time, but he eventually becomes a recurring enemy of theirs.

Current-Bio: Reese currently works for SAC, and is most often seen tagging along with Cyrus on missions. Much to his annoyance, Reese is often given lots of paperwork instead of actual missions. When not seen with Cyrus, he can usually be found with Marin, whom he is very close to.

Meta-History: Reese was created in 2013, making him the last of the four minion characters to be created. He was created to be a companion/familiar to Cyrus, and was given a similar hairstyle (hair covering one eye) as a result. While I was playing Animal Crossing: New Leaf at the time, I really didn't mean to given them the same names as the alpacas. Cyrus already had his name at the point, and for Reese I think I was thinking of Reese from Malcolm in the Middle when I named him (there were re-runs of that show on Nickelodeon around that time). I sadly haven't used Reese too much since creating him, but I've been meaning to develop him more as a character since I do like his design.

Relationships with Other Characters:

Shadow-cat: Reese generally obeys Shadow-cat's orders, but is clearly not always happy to do so.

Deerrain: Reese gets along with Deerrain.

Saturn: Reese gets along with Saturn.

Cyrus: Reese is closest to Cyrus and is arguably his best friend. The two are more open to each other than they are with others.

Matchi: Reese generally gets along with Matchi.

Meevio: Reese and Meevio are good friends.

Pocky: Reese is friends with Pocky, but has trouble understanding her energy level.

Marin: Reese is very close with Marin. She's arguably his second best friend, as he's much more open with her than he is with others (except for Cyrus).

If I think of anything else I'll add it later.
