Background

Brother John Dimasaigh was born on December 31st, 1966, to an off-the-boat Cuban mother and a 3rd gen Irish father named Brooks Dimasaigh and Ramira Dimasaigh. As a child, Brother John had it "rough" as his parents usually lived paycheck to paycheck for most of his life, but that gave him a certain tenacity that allowed him to thrive in an environment like Florida. He would fall into a group of delinquents who he quickly made friends with, not making many thereafter due to a fear of people not understanding him. He grew up and went on to graduate fairly well in all his classes. During one of his classes, he chose to skip with his friends when he was told they managed to buy some mushrooms, which he tried. It led to him becoming a bit more paranoid but kindled a new desire to learn about drugs and how they exist and especially how they’re made. So, he proceeded onto college as a chemical engineer, once again passing with unremarkable grades. After school he started to do side gigs as an amateur chemist, and that ended up with him making some good connections through life, one of them, Dayvon. Brother John would meet with him semi-often and supply him with whatever he asked and the connection led to them being close, and eventually become the Godparent of Allie, Dee’s kid. A few years later, some people would get into contact with Fre and ask him to meet, and he’d learn that Dee died, along with Allie's mom shortly after. So Fre kept his word and took Allie in and used the money he had to buy a bigger place to house and care for her, making sure she was well in health and school. As Brother John grew up, he started to work in any labs he could, working on ways to make the labs run with more efficiency, one of his assignments had sent him over to Europe. While touring different labs in Europe he ends up landing in France around Bordeaux, meeting with a person named Rua and they would become fairly good friends in the short time they would meet and spend time with each other. Before leaving his study in Europe he would tell Rua to come meet at a bar he planned to open in Florida named Euphoria Elixirs Lounge. After some time working throughout different countries he would take in some cultures and learn how to optimize more ways of his life and the many labs he’s worked at. He soon started working at a private sector lab based within a bunker in Kentucky but left due to different opportunities. After a few years of coasting he returned to Florida to open a lounge; Euphoria Elixirs and would open one on south beach a few months later after the original had an amazing launch, he would continue to open new ones, in Kentucky, New York, LA and in the following weeks he was going to scout Braddock Island. About half a year after the Florida launch, Rua would finally arrive to the lounge to keep his promise and after a week of spending time together Brother John would tell them about a new launch on the island he had planned in the next month and so they both would head to Braddock Island, where the new lounge would be. During the following weeks, Fre would watch the city of new York destroy itself, most of the services like police, medics and firefighters are slogged by how much is going on, and so he left to the coast to a gated community that had been fairly untouched. While Fre would have troubles getting to any airlines to get to the island, he would eventually have a connection through the panicked streets to a dock and the friend would load him on a boat heading straight to the island, hoping that it'd be fairing better then the chaos across the isle.
