Re: I will become an AU version of myself!

Duke will have been raised by Reverend Driscoll, Haven's own deeply problematic fundie preacher!

Like his adoptive sister, Hannah, Duke will have ended up with a, uhhh, conflicted relationship with his old man and the things he preaches. Unlike his adoptive sister, he'll have internalized the fuck out of Driscoll's "great destiny" speeches about how only Duke can save the people of Haven.

Are troubled people damned? Yeah, he's not so sure about that. Is he, specifically, meant to save them with his own trouble? Well now, that he can't really argue as hard with.

So yeah, I am not quite able to play Duke as a full-on cultist white savior type (I tried writing that fanfic already and have learned this about myself), but he's definitely not going to be the outwardly happy-go-lucky pirate we all know and love.
