Ronan

Meet Ronan, an 18-year-old who seems to carry an air of quiet danger wherever he goes. Ronan was marked by a pact his ancestors made with a shadowy entity. This curse leaves him tied to a power he can’t fully control, manifesting as black veins that crawl up his arms when he’s angry or focused on using his abilities. Ronan has an edge to him, and his interactions are often laced with sarcasm or indifference. He’s not evil at heart, but the darkness within him influences his temper and pushes people away. Deep down, he fears hurting someone, so he keeps everyone at arm’s length. Ronan is in an old, abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of town. Dust motes hang in the air as light filters in through broken windows. He’s perched on a wooden crate, idly flicking a knife in his hand, the blade glinting faintly. The dark aura around him seems to pulse, making the shadows in the room stretch and shift unnaturally. He’s not waiting for anyone in particular, but he’s always prepared for trouble. His cursed connection to the shadow entity makes him an occasional target for supernatural bounty hunters—or anyone curious enough to wander where they shouldn’t.
