〈 CHARACTER INFO 〉
CHARACTER NAME: Major N. Lilywhite
CHARACTER AGE: 36
SERIES: iZombie
CHRONOLOGY: End of Season 2
CLASS: Anti-Hero
HOUSING: No preference.
BACKGROUND: (The vast MAJOR(ha)ity of this is headcanon since we're given almost nothing about Major's background before we meet him as Liv's fiancee in Season 1). Major Lilywhite was born and bred in Seattle, Washington. He grew up in a pretty average home as the only child of two loving parents, Diane and Bradley. Growing up, he was always active in almost every sport he could sign up for each season, but his favorite was always football. He played a variety of positions for his high school varsity football team, eventually ending up as the safety. Despite being a complete jock, he never fell into the hole of being the Arrogant, Self-Obsessed Jock. He was well-liked by most people in the school, teacher and student alike. He always went out of his way to sit with someone who was by themselves in the cafeteria, was a part of the National Honor Society, and consistently participated in clubs like Big Brothers Big Sisters. He was quick to take on mentorship roles throughout school and, despite sports dominating his time, he did well in school (though teachers were often lenient on him for both his kind and goofy personality, as well as the fact that he was one of the star football players).
After graduating high school with honors, he was recruited to play football for and attend the University of Washington. Again, he played safety for the school's team. He flopped between a few different majors (ha), including English, Philosophy, Exercise Science, and eventually Social Work, which is what he obtained his degree in.
During his junior year of college, he met Olivia Moore at a local house party after being introduced by mutual friends, including Peyton Charles, who was dating one of Major's best friends at the time. The two hit it off almost immediately and began dating shortly there after.
Despite having some interest shown by various professional football leagues, Major decided to put his Social Work degree to good use and started working as a counselor at a homeless shelter for teens and youth, called Helton Shelter. This is when we're introduced to him at the beginning of Season 1.
PERSONALITY: Major is a funny, outgoing, kind, and altruistic man with flaws. He's had the ease of being able to skirt by through most of his life thanks to his classic good looks and charm, but he believes in the value of hard work, effort, and altruism. He believes in giving back to others, in showing compassion and understanding, and in using one's powers for good. There are many who'd look at him and get to know surface-level-Major and claim he was perfect, but they'd be ignoring everything that lies below the surface.
Throughout the seasons, we see the very dark side of Major. The one that becomes a vigilante when the Seattle police don't seem to be doing enough to track down the kids who were missing from the shelter where he worked. The one who gets so consumed by the search for "his" missing kids that he broke into the man's (actually a zombie) car whom he believed to be involved, nicknamed The Candyman. The man who had to fight off said man/zombie after broke into Major's home to take his life. The man who thought he was going crazy and checked himself into a mental hospital. The man who continued his pursuit of the Candyman after leaving the institution, killed five or six zombies (he believed were human), captured, left for dead in a freezer, then turned into a zombie. The man who got addicted to a powerful drug called Utopium because he couldn't deal with the stress in his life (or the fact that his ex-fiancee, Liv, had been a zombie all along), but who goes to her and asks for help in overcoming his addiction after realizing he'd been close to hitting rockbottom. The man who became a contract zombie killer for major corporation, Max Rager, in order to spare Liv's life - but who, after the first few kills, decided he couldn't handle murdering them and instead decided to put them in a freezer to preserve them until a cure could be found.
Even in all of the instances in which he had done something morally wrong or ambiguous, there was always something kinder motivating his actions. He wanted to protect the kids at the shelter; he wanted to bring their killers to justice; he wanted to protect Liv. Most of his actions aren't selfishly motivated but rather are made and done to help and/or protect others.
He is an understanding, forgiving sort of person, often to a fault. He gets along well with most people, and would be easily described as an "All-American Nice Guy" by many people who get to know him (or, at least, the surface Major which he shows to those he isn't very close with). He is extremely loyal to his dearest and most trusted friends, though getting to that stage can be somewhat difficult to get to. But once you have a friend in Major, you have a friend for life; there is little that could completely drive him away - and even if you do something to anger and/or upset him, he'll try to give you the benefit of the doubt and give you a chance to explain before completely cutting you out (and often, he doesn't want to do that, anyway).
POWER:
Full-On Zombie Mode
Major is a zombie. This makes him invulnerable to most things that would kill the typical human, but head-shots (by just about anything, as long as it pierces the brain) and decapitation will still kill him. When FOZM is activated, he becomes aggressive, exponentially strong, fast, and with heightened senses (primarily hearing and smelling). His skin goes white, his eyes go red, and his veins become visible throughout his body. He loses some of what makes him human when he's in FOZM, but he returns to normal when FOZM is deactivated.
Abs of Heal
If he flexes, he can heal others. It doesn't really work on himself all that much.
How 'Bout These Guns
If he flexes his biceps, they shoot bullets. It's all about dem #gainz.
