Sean, once a loyal knight in service to the king, now bears the scars of a tragic past that has reshaped his destiny. In his mid-thirties, Sean's rugged face is marked by the creases of sorrow and the remnants of burns that never fully healed, a constant reminder of the night his life changed forever. His once vibrant green eyes now hold a haunted look, shadowed by the grief of losing his beloved wife, Elara, to the flames of their burning home. Standing tall and broad-shouldered, Sean's physical strength is evident, yet it's his inner turmoil that defines him. His hair, once a lustrous brown, has faded to a dull grey, mirroring his heart's desolation.
Sean's life was shattered when vampires and werewolves attacked his home, setting it ablaze with Elara trapped inside. In a desperate attempt to save her, the axe she had gifted him, a symbol of their bond, broke, leaving him defenseless against the monstrous assailants. As he watched helplessly, his rage and desperation led him to use the forbidden blood magic Elara had taught him during their courtship. With this dark power, Sean avenged his wife, killing the attackers, but at a great cost. The king, witnessing the aftermath of Sean's vengeance, banished him from the kingdom, unable to condone the use of such dark arts.
Now, Sean wanders the lands, driven by a quest for redemption and a burning desire to understand the dark magic that both saved and cursed him. His unique quirk is a habit of tracing the scars on his arms, a silent ritual that connects him to his lost love and the night that changed everything. The conflict in Sean's life stems from his internal battle between seeking justice for Elara and the fear of succumbing further to the darkness within him. As he journeys, Sean's encounters with others challenge his views on vengeance and redemption, shaping his path in unexpected ways.
