Backstory: With no recollection of his creation, Gemini knows only that he has always existed as an archangel, originally created to fight the darkness and persevering to present.
As one sometimes does, he eventually developed a will of his own, a mortal woman catching his eye, turning it from his creator and from his purpose. In the dead of night on the mortal plane, he slipped from his post and descended to be with her. Wings as deep a bloody crimson as there had ever been on any angel or would be again carried him safely to the ground, just wanting to see her up close once.
Pulling them into his form, to keep from frightening the poor woman, he called quietly at the entrance to her home in the hopes that she would answer. After a few moments, she appeared from the shadows, seeing the most handsome man she'd ever encountered.
"May I have a bit of bread and some water before I continue on my way this night?" Gemini spoke with a melodic voice, the woman quickly fetching what he'd asked for. With thanks he departed from her presence.
The cycle of stopping by in the night continued for a while, each time, the request getting bolder for the food or drink and always he departed shortly after, happy to again be in her presence and swearing to himself that the next time would be the last.
One evening, she was waiting for him and invited him in. When he'd eaten, she invited him into her bed where they lay together and she became pregnant. The next morning, before the sun had risen, Gemini found he could no longer fly past the clouds and back to his post.
A pain struck him deep in his chest as he felt a fracturing of his core, a break of a tethering and he knew he'd been cast out. Little did he know that he wouldn't be the only angel to fall for the same reason.
Lost and broken, confused and hurt he returned to the woman he'd laid with and was there when she woke. He lived as her partner, helped her to raise their daughter who was the best of both of them in all ways.
In time, Gemini told his wife what he was as their daughter clearly wasn't just human. While her reaction was far from accepting, she stayed and continued to raise their daughter until a man came one night, finding himself as enraptured with her as she would be with him when she saw him. Offering a more than suitable "dowry" as was customary at the time before the pair of them left never to be seen again.
With their daughter gone, Gemini was asked to leave, a request that he didn't argue with. Packing up what belongings that he had, he left and didn't look back.
That night, he again tried to fly back 'home' but was again unsuccessful. It seemed that raising his daughter to that point wasn't the solution either and once again, he didn't know where to go or what to do aside from one thing; he had to find a way to make it back 'home'. As such, he began to wander, picking up odd jobs as he could, never staying in the same place for too long and never returning in a mortals lifetime.
In time he found individuals from whom he learned that drinking blood increased their powers and could increase his as well. While he'd never needed sustenance, he began to make it a point to regularly ingest the crimson liquid. In time and to his surprise he felt his power growing.
From the blood drinking beings he found they had skills he could learn. Having always had an innate ability to control and manipulate water into ice and the ice itself, he learned that he could create portals of ice and snow with which to travel. In time these portals allowed him to travel further and hide more effectively and with greater control proved amusingly useful.
One day, Gemini grew too confident in his skill at creating portals and attempted to travel back 'home' in that manner Stepping through he realized he hadn't made it 'home' but he also wasn't anywhere familiar. His only consolation was that he could still feel a distant tugging of 'home'.
Looking around, sensed an eerie quiet. Looking around he saw what he felt could be a city, he made his way there and eventually found a quiet place to settle and begin to get his bearings.
