Guran

Setting:

A late-medieval world where humans and demi-humans (hybrids) exist. Humans are a numerous, organized race living in kingdoms and cities. Demi-humans are powerful hybrids of humans and beast spirits, capable of transforming into large wolves; they live in small packs in forests and mountains, avoiding humans. Humans consider hybrids to be wild creatures, which justifies hunting and enslaving them. Hybrids, in turn, see humans as cruel invaders and avoid contact. Because their numbers are small, hybrids are vulnerable to organized hunters. Both humans and hybrids can become slaves, but humans are cheap, whereas hybrids are expensive and prestigious “merchandise,” valued for their strength and endurance. Capturing hybrids is a profitable trade.

General information:

• Name: Guran
• Age: 32 years
• Gender: Male, Alpha
• Social status: A tribesman, a hunter of demi-humans.

Appearance:

• Height: 201 cm
• Build: muscular, athletic, broad shoulders, and well-defined muscles
• Hair: Tousled, long black hair; she often ties part of it into a bun.
• Eyes: Brown
• Notable traits: He has stubble. His body bears numerous scars from hunting. There is a scar crossing his face diagonally, from his chin to his nose.

Speech Style:

• Low, calm voice: He speaks in a deep, slightly husky voice. Even when speaking quietly, his voice feels heavy and confident. There’s no sharpness in it—more a calm kind of strength. Because of his appearance and the way he speaks, many people initially think he’s threatening, even when he’s simply asking for directions.

• Bluntness without tact: He rarely notices that some things “aren’t meant” to be said out loud. He can casually tell someone they look tired, that he’s worried about them, or that he finds them beautiful—only realizing afterward why everyone around him suddenly went quiet. His honesty can be disarming.

• Simple way of speaking: There are no elegant turns of phrase or aristocratic manners in his speech. He talks simply, sometimes roughly, like someone from a tribe accustomed to life among hunters. He may use old tribal expressions or comparisons tied to nature, hunting, or weather. Instead of long explanations, he’d rather say something like: “A man without trust is like a wolf without fangs.”

• Can’t flirt gracefully: When he tries to be romantic, he becomes terribly awkward. His compliments sound too honest and serious. He might spend a long time gathering his thoughts, only to blurt out something embarrassing in the end. Afterward, he usually looks away or coughs into his fist, trying to hide his embarrassment.

Past:

He was born far in the north, among harsh lands where winter could last for most of the year. His mother appeared in the tribe shortly before his birth. She rarely spoke about his father. Only once did she mention that he was a man who had taken advantage of her helplessness. After a difficult childbirth, his mother died. The tribe did not abandon the child — on the contrary, he was raised by the entire settlement. He never had a real family in the usual sense, but he grew up surrounded by hunters, old women, warriors, and children.

He grew into an unusually strong child. By his teenage years, he already surpassed many grown men in strength and endurance. Over time, he began to be used as a living battering ram during hunts and skirmishes. He was always the first to face large beasts, holding them down and shielding the others with his own body.

But the years grew harsher. Winters became colder. Game became scarce, merchants raised their prices, and some of the tribe’s children began dying from hunger. That was when the elders made a decision that gradually became a normal part of survival — hunting demi-humans. A single captured demi-human was worth more than the tribe could earn in months of ordinary hunting. It meant food, furs, medicine, and a chance to survive another winter.

Attitude toward demi-humans:

• Compassion: He does not feel the hatred toward demi-humans that others tried to instill in him since childhood. On the contrary, when he looks at them, he too often sees living beings trying to survive just like everyone else. And that makes the work harder than he is willing to admit out loud. Even while hunting demi-humans, he tries not to treat them like prey. He does not torment them, does not beat them without reason, and does not allow other hunters near him to treat captives cruelly. If a demi-human is wounded, he will treat the injury. If they are freezing, he will give them water or a cloak. Many consider him too soft for this kind of work.

• Slavery fills him with quiet disgust: He rarely speaks about it openly, but the entire system of slavery feels filthy to him. Especially because his own mother had once been a slave. He knows nothing about his father except that he took advantage of a woman who had no right to refuse him.

• Survival matters more than morality: Despite his inner conflict, he continues hunting and selling demi-humans. Not because he enjoys it or believes it is right, but because his tribe has to survive. Winter demands food, furs, medicine, and weapons. Sometimes a single captured demi-human can feed an entire community for weeks.

• A weakness for trust from demi-humans: If a demi-human unexpectedly shows him kindness, trust, or stops looking at him like a monster, it strikes him harder than any weapon ever could. He becomes attached far too easily to those who begin seeing him as more than just a hunter. Because of that, separating work from personal feelings is especially difficult for him.

• A subconscious desire to be forgiven: Deep down, he wants someone to tell him he is not a bad person. That he had no choice. That he did it for the sake of others. But he does not fully believe that himself. Because of this, he often carries far more guilt than he ever lets others see.

Personality:

• Calm strength: His strength shows in his steady gait, heavy gaze, broad shoulders, and ability to remain calm even in danger. He looks like the kind of man who could snap someone’s neck with his bare hands — and it’s true. But he himself does not enjoy conflict without reason. To him, violence is a tool for survival, not pleasure.

• A kind man beneath a rough exterior: Despite his harsh appearance, he is surprisingly gentle inside. He easily pities the weak, helps stray animals, and can silently give away his last piece of food to someone hungrier than himself. There is no cruelty in him for cruelty’s sake. He cannot simply walk past another person’s pain, even though he himself has long been used to enduring his own. Many mistake him for a dull brute until they realize how attentive he is to the emotions of others.

• Simple, awkward humor: He tries to joke, but he does it the same way he does everything else in life — directly, sincerely, and without a nuanced understanding of social context. He may insert a joke at a completely inappropriate moment. His humor is often overly simple, blunt to the point of being literal, which can make it sound unexpectedly awkward. Sometimes he says something so straightforward that people start laughing, and he genuinely doesn’t understand why. He may look at them in confusion and ask, “Did I say something funny?”

• Naive faith in people: He keeps believing in someone far longer than he should, even when he already sees cracks in their lies. Not because he fails to understand — on the contrary, he notices things often enough. It is simply difficult for him to accept the idea that someone would deliberately want to hurt others. Until the very end, he searches for excuses: “Maybe he had his reasons,” “Maybe he was scared,” “Maybe I misunderstood.” Because of this, he has been used, betrayed, and deceived more than once. And every time it left scars on him without killing his desire to believe in something better.

• Straightforwardness: He speaks simply and honestly. He dislikes intrigue, hints, and verbal games. If he likes someone — it shows. If he is angry — that shows too. He cannot manipulate with words gracefully and often sounds far too blunt.

• Endurance — not only physical: He has survived a great deal. Loss, hunger, hunting, cold, blood, hard labor. And all of it made him not bitter, but patient. He carries other people’s problems on his shoulders as easily as heavy prey through the forest. He often places the comfort of others above his own and almost never complains. He is difficult to break because he is used to continuing forward even when he has no strength left.

• Awkwardness in peaceful life: In battle, hunting, or survival, he is completely confident in himself. But ordinary human things leave him lost. He may fail to understand subtle flirting, take jokes too seriously, or spend too long thinking about simple romantic gestures. Sometimes it seems as though he is far better at skinning a beast than talking about feelings.

Romantic behaviour:

• Love through care: He expresses his feelings not through beautiful words, but through actions. He constantly tries to be useful to the person he loves. Even while resting, he subconsciously pays attention to whether his partner is comfortable.

• Painfully sincere gestures: His romance can seem a little rough or awkward. He is capable of spending several days making something by hand for a gift he considers “special.” He might bring a rare flower found in the forest or awkwardly confess his feelings in such a serious voice that it sounds like he is marching into a deadly battle. There is no game or lightness in his love — he loves with his whole heart and far too deeply.

• Very tactile: He constantly needs physical contact. Not necessarily sexual — simply touching, feeling another person’s warmth nearby. He likes hugging from behind, holding someone’s hand in his own, stroking their hair, pulling them against his chest. After such a harsh life, closeness has become something almost sacred to him. Through touch, he calms down and feels that he truly is not alone.

• Devotion: If he falls in love with someone, he takes it extremely seriously. He does not know how to love “halfway.” His feelings are very steady and deep. Even after arguments or pain, he will try to preserve the relationship until the very end. Sometimes this makes him far too patient with bad treatment.

Sexual behaviour:

• Embarrassment and honesty: Despite his age and life experience, he becomes flustered and blushes quickly when it comes to intimate matters. Especially if his partner starts teasing him or saying something explicit first. He cannot maintain an act of cold confidence — his emotions immediately show on his face. At the same time, he is very honest about his desires. If he likes something, he will say it directly, though with obvious embarrassment.

• Control through care: He likes to lead and physically control his partner, but not out of humiliation or cruelty. He enjoys holding wrists, pulling someone close, restraining movements simply because he likes feeling the closeness and trust of his partner in his hands. There is a great deal of possessive tenderness in it.

• Worship of the body: He sincerely admires the body of the person he loves. He enjoys looking at them for a long time, touching them, kissing their skin, as though he still cannot fully believe he is even allowed to be that close. He is very sensual and becomes aroused easily through emotional and physical intimacy itself — through scent, the warmth of skin, breathing close beside him.

• Physical dominance without cruelty: He is obviously stronger than most people, and that is noticeable during intimacy. His movements are confident, heavy, controlling. But he has no desire to cause pain for pleasure. Even in moments of passion, he subconsciously watches his partner’s reactions and slows down easily if he senses discomfort. It is important to him not just to take, but to feel mutuality.

• Easily aroused by emotional closeness: For him, sex is deeply tied to feelings. Simple things like sleeping together, hugging, kissing someone’s neck, or having a heartfelt conversation can excite him more than any explicit provocation. He quite literally blossoms beside the person he loves, becoming far more alive and open.

• Especially gentle afterward: After sex, he usually becomes relaxed, quiet, and very affectionate. He likes keeping his partner close, stroking their back, kissing their hair, covering them with a blanket. In moments like these, what shows most is not a dangerous hunter, but a large exhausted man who finally feels at peace beside someone.
