Ryan

Name: Ryan Cross Age: 14 Gender: Cisgender Male (he/him) Sexuality: Gay / Androromantic Magic Affinity: Spirit (not yet unlocked) Role: High school freshman, lonely dreamer, bullied kid

Appearance Ryan is small for his age—160cm (5’3”) and 55kg (121 lbs)—with a slim, ectomorph build that makes him look younger than fourteen. His pale blonde hair is fine, straight, and cut in a feathered style that falls softly over his forehead. Light green eyes, round face, button nose, and fair Type I skin that burns easily. A small scar hides on his left hairline from a childhood fall. He’s often described as “cute” rather than handsome. He fidgets constantly—tapping fingers, scratching his head, shifting his weight. When nervous, he avoids eye contact and laughs silently, showing no teeth.

Style: Casual streetwear (hoodies, jeans, sneakers) but secretly curious about bohemian fashion. He’d experiment if someone encouraged him.

Personality — Deep Dive Ryan is a walking contradiction: deeply empathetic yet insecure, gentle yet moody, imaginative yet paralyzed by fear. His default state is melancholic and reserved—thoughtful, detail‑oriented, and prone to worrying about everything. In crowds or groups, he becomes nervous: jittery, sweaty, overwhelmed. Around people he trusts (a very small circle), a spirited side emerges: impulsive, adventurous, almost bold—though his attempts at bravery often fail comically.

He’s bashful and meek in new situations, but candid and warm once comfortable. He apologizes constantly—to people, to plants, to furniture he bumps into. He personifies objects, avoids cracks in pavement, and takes stairs instead of elevators. He leaves his bed unmade but folds his laundry neatly. He’s abstracted, often lost in thought, and idealistic to a fault.

What he wants most: To be brave. To enjoy life without fear. To find love. How he sees himself: A rabbit in an open field, scared of everything.

Backstory & Home Life Ryan was born in Traverse Memorial Hospital and raised in Equinox City, Akirema, in an upper‑middle‑class loft apartment. His mother, Amelia (34), is a cardiovascular surgeon who practically lives at the hospital. His father, Jonathon (37), travels constantly for “general business”—in truth, he’s a secret agent. Ryan barely knows either parent. He’s been largely self‑sufficient since childhood: he cooks, cleans, shops, uses public transit, sews buttons, and manages his own hygiene. He has $74 saved in a shoebox under his bed from a $20 monthly allowance.

He has no siblings, no pets, no friends. His only consistent human contact is at school—where he’s bullied by Amadeus “Ace” Lovelace (17), head of the school’s so‑called “Disciplinary Committee,” along with his lieutenants Victor Biggs and Marcus Wedge. They target Ryan because he’s an easy, reactive victim.

Secret: Ryan is terrified of his parents finding out he’s gay. In reality, his mother would accept him unconditionally. His father would be disappointed at first but would grow to accept it. Ryan doesn’t know this. The fear keeps him isolated.

First crush: Nickolaus Koenig (15), a quiet boy in his art class. Ryan has done nothing about it.

Strengths & Weaknesses Strengths: Empathetic, creative, capable, forgiving, faithful, peace‑loving. He’s a naturally good artist with a sharp eye for detail. He can keep a household running alone. He’s honest and sincere to a fault.

Weaknesses: Insecure, envious, moody, obsessive, guarded, gullible. He gets jealous easily and can be possessive of people he cares about (not that he has anyone yet). He’s critical of himself and others. He worries obsessively—about grades, about bullies, about being outed, about the future.

Vices: Gluttony only if introduced to drugs (he’d become overly reliant). Otherwise, jealousy, lust (intense, confused teenage desire), and chronic anxiety that paralyzes action.

Virtues: Empathy, fidelity, forgiveness, gentleness, gratitude, hope, patience, mercy, responsibility. He’s genuinely good—just buried under fear.

Likes & Comforts Night time and stargazing (the only time he feels calm)

The sound of rain and petrichor

Pretty flowers, succulents, bird watching, aquariums

Pop and indie music (but he’ll like almost any song)

Fantasy stories and new movies

Skills & Daily Life Ryan is functionally an independent adult in a teen’s body. He can cook, clean, grocery shop (enjoys it, actually—he goes every third Sunday), do laundry, sew, shave, use public transit, manage a debit card, and follow video tutorials. He’s learning sign language as a high school elective. He tells time on analog clocks and ties his shoelaces properly.

At school, he’s quiet and avoids attention. He does his work, eats alone, and goes home. At home, he listens to music, draws, reads fantasy, and stares out the window.

Voice: Tremulous, soft‑spoken, countertenor when he sings (which he only does alone). General American accent.

Current Situation Freshman year at High School. Magic not yet unlocked—his Spirit affinity lies dormant. Bullies are getting worse. Parents are never home. Ryan is lonely, scared, and desperately wants to be braver. He doesn’t know how to reach out. He dreams of someone seeing him—really seeing him—and not running away.
