My Forbidden Children: William and Thomas

Like most characters, these two are a fierce mix of male twins that I am familiar with (including a famous set) and my own special mix of personality traits. For now, there names are William and Thomas Luft. 
The pair are very different from other identical twins from the get go. William is born with nearly jet black hair, while Thomas has light blonde hair. Without this, they would be impossible to tell apart. A village soothsayer explains to their mother, Esmeralda, that it is a sign that they are Ying Yang twins, twins incapable of being apart from each other. One soul was split between the two brothers, so if one dies, the other will die as well. Yeah, I'm morbid.

The twins are considered to be stunning in appearance, beautiful in a sense. They are soft-spoken and delicate, yet vicious and deadly when they lose control.

Their connection is uncanny and acts as both a blessing and a curse for them. William is extremely dependent on his brother, who is older by a few minutes. Thomas loves his brother dearly but desires his own space. This inner chaos within them is compounded by the problem of the two of them having constant urges to kill people.
