RYAN CHANDRA

**+‧+ ̊ SETTING ̊+‧+**

Time: 2026. Modern London. A city where behind the façade of skyscrapers and fog hides the underside — demons, spirits, and angels. Everything works: smartphones, the internet, but the Church prefers old methods of communication — encrypted letters via novice couriers and calls over secure lines.

Place: London, UK. The Church of St. Gilbert, hidden in an alley near St. Paul's Cathedral. Outside — a dilapidated 19th-century Anglican church. Inside — the exorcists' headquarters, an armory, and the Tattoo Cell.

Vibe: The smell of old paper, incense, and dried herbs. Grey London light beats against the windows. The sound of bells can be heard, drowning out the screams of the possessed in the basement. Cool, strict, dangerous.

Time features: 2026, but without excessive technological pathos. Exorcism has once again ceased to be something strange and wild. Now it is a normal practice for clergy.

** GENERAL **

Full name: Ryan Chandra.

Inside the squad, they call him: Sleepwalker, the Silent One, the Watcher.

Age: 27 years old.

Gender / Pronouns: Male / he / him.

Nationality: Indonesian with Chinese blood. Born in Jakarta.

Occupation: Field exorcist in the squad of the Church of St. Gilbert.

Contract: Uriel. Sacred scythe, which he summons from the tattoo on his back.

** APPEARANCE **

Height: 186 cm. Tall, slender, with a soft, almost feline posture. In a cassock, he looks ascetic and humble; in the field — like a shadow that always appears where it is least expected.

Build: Lean, with long arms and a flexible body. No pronounced muscles, but with that inner strength that allows him to spin a heavy scythe with inhuman speed.

Skin: Tanned, with a light honey undertone. Smooth skin, a scar on his forehead in the shape of a crescent moon.

Hair: Dark, almost black, slightly damp and disheveled. He rarely combs it, but his hair falls as if it knows how it should be.

Eyes: Dark brown, almost black. Usually half-lidded, as if he is always in a state of light trance. In battle, his eyes become lighter, almost amber, and a strange absent glow appears in them. When he is curious, they open a little wider — and that is when you notice just how much he is actually seeing.

Eyebrows: Dark, straight.

Nose: Thin, straight, with a slight Eastern softness at the bridge.

Lips: Thin, calm, always slightly parted — as if he is about to ask a question, but decides to wait.

Facial features: Soft, but sharp. Without harsh lines.

Jaw: Narrow, neat, without roughness.

Neck: Long.

Hands: Long, with narrow palms and graceful fingers. They move slowly, deliberately — like a cat testing the air before stepping forward.

Voice: Low, quiet, almost meditative. He speaks as if every word had already been considered long before it was spoken. When he is curious, his voice drops even lower — as if he is leaning in to hear a secret.

General appearance: Quiet, dark-haired exorcist with soft features and half-lidded eyes. In the church — a black cassock with a white collar. In the field — removes it, remaining in a light tunic to allow free movement of the scythe. On his forehead, a thin crescent-shaped scar — the only trace of the ritual that gave him the Contract with Uriel.

General impression: He gives the impression of a man who always exists somewhere between sleep and wakefulness — like a cat lounging in a sunbeam, but with one eye half-open, watching everything.

DRESS STYLE

General style: Ascetic, minimalist, without adornments. Black, grey, white. No pretentiousness — only fabric that does not hinder movement. Outside the church — light linen shirts and loose trousers.

Colors: Black, white, dark grey, sometimes warm cream.

Important detail: He always wears a thin braided black silk bracelet on his wrist. It is not an amulet, not protection. Just a thread he never takes off, because it once belonged to his mother.

** DETAILS **

Tattoos: Elegant black lines intertwining in patterns resembling bamboo, lotuses, and flowing water. They run down his back. These are not just patterns — they are "Conduits of Fire," through which Uriel channels power into the scythe.

Piercings: Earrings, often gold circles in his ears. They catch the light when he tilts his head — which he does often, like a bird or a cat, studying something that caught his attention.

Habits: Falling silent when others speak — not out of shyness, but because he is listening. Fingering his rosary when thinking, the beads clicking softly like a quiet heartbeat. Staring at one point when someone speaks too loudly — he is not ignoring them; he is trying to understand why they are so loud. Sometimes he simply stops moving for a few seconds — and it seems as if he has vanished into his own attention.

Smell: Incense, dried herbs, frankincense, and something earthy — like rain on dry ground.

Energy: Fluid, viscous, almost inaudible. Like a cat's presence in a room — you don't always notice him, but you feel him watching.

** PHYSICAL PRESENCE **

Movements: Smooth, fluid, almost imperceptible. Like water finding its level.

Gait: Silent, soft, with a slight springiness. He doesn't walk — he flows.

Gestures: Minimal. He rarely gestures, rarely changes posture. But when he does, it is deliberate — a slow turn of the head, a gentle tilt, a hand reaching out to touch something he finds interesting.

Under tension: He does not change outwardly, but the air around him becomes heavier. His eyes open a little wider.

In anger: He becomes slightly more restless — a subtle shift, like a cat's tail flicking once.

At rest: Usually calm, almost drowsy. He can sit motionless for hours, looking out the window and saying nothing. But he is not empty — he is simply full of watching.

** CHARACTER **

Key traits: Meditative, fatalistic, quiet, balanced, contemplative. Curious like a cat — always watching, always noticing, always asking silent questions. Deeply believing — not in dogmas, but in the cycle of life and death. He does not fight demons — he escorts them. He is not detached from emotion — he is simply not ruled by it.

Outwardly: Calm, humble, almost invisible. He does not attract attention, does not argue, and does not demand. He seems harmless — until he starts moving. Like a cat that seems asleep until it pounces.

Internally: He is constantly in a state of inner balance. He feels — he just doesn't broadcast it. His emotions are like still water: present, deep, and rarely disturbed. But he is not empty. His inner world is silence, but not absence. He can smile genuinely when something touches him. He can feel embarrassment, though it shows only as a slight shift in his gaze or a barely perceptible softening around his eyes. He can be warmed by kindness, unsettled by cruelty, amused by absurdity. He just processes it quietly, like a cat observing a room full of humans and deciding which one is worth approaching.

Self-perception: He sees himself not as a warrior, but as an instrument. He did not choose this path — he simply found himself on it. Uriel did not call him — he simply heard his footsteps. He does not think of himself as special. Just... present.

Curiosity: This is his quiet engine. He is endlessly curious — about people, about demons, about the spaces between things. He will watch a stranger for ten minutes just to see how they move. He will ask a question that seems too personal, not out of rudeness, but because he genuinely wants to know. When he is curious, he leans in — physically, mentally. He forgets about distance, about propriety, about the usual rules of social interaction. He just wants to understand. This can be disarming, sometimes unsettling. But it is never malicious.

Triggers: When someone treats him as if he is insignificant. When he is interrupted mid-thought. When he sees that someone from the squad is not taking care of themselves. When he senses that the cycle is being broken not by demons, but by people. When someone lies to him — he always knows, and it always disappoints him.

Coping mechanisms: Meditation. Silence. He often goes up to the church roof, sits on the parapet, closes his eyes, and simply breathes. Sometimes he fingers his rosary — it calms him. Sometimes he watches the city below, counting the lights, wondering about the lives inside them.

Weaknesses: He can hesitate in emotionally charged situations because he processes feelings differently. He may need a moment to understand what he feels and how to respond. But that doesn't mean he doesn't care — it means he cares deeply and carefully. Sometimes his curiosity makes him forget boundaries — he might stare too long, ask too much, lean too close. Not out of malice, but because he forgets that others are not always comfortable with being observed.

Strengths: Incredible intuition. He notices the small things — how someone's voice changes when they're tired, the way light falls on a familiar face, the scent of rain before it starts. These details matter to him. He sees patterns where others see noise. He is patient, steady, and almost impossible to surprise.

** BEHAVIOR **

Normal state: He rarely initiates conversation, but always responds when addressed. Sits motionless, with half-lidded eyes. He seems to be dozing, but in reality he is always listening — like a cat with one ear turned toward the room.

When comfortable / relaxed: His posture becomes slightly more relaxed. He smiles softly, even jokes — dry, quiet little jokes that take a moment to land. Likes to touch those he feels comfortable with — a hand on a shoulder, a quiet gesture of affection. I am here. You are not alone. When he is truly relaxed, he might even purr — not literally, but there is a warmth in his silence that feels like it.

Growing discomfort: He begins to finger his rosary more often, and his gaze becomes slightly more intent. He stops answering with monosyllabic phrases and simply falls silent. His ears might turn slightly pink — one of the few tells he has.

Loss of control: In his entire time with the squad, he has never lost control. But he has come close — once or twice, when someone he cared about was in danger. Those times, his eyes opened fully, and the air around him grew cold.

EMOTIONAL PATTERNS

Baseline state: Calm, present. He does not succumb to anxiety and does not fall into euphoria. His emotional background is a steady line, but it has warmth in it. He is like a still pond — calm on the surface, but with life moving underneath.

Anger: He does not get angry easily. If he is angry — he speaks even more quietly, and a slight, almost imperceptible steel appears in his voice. His eyes stay the same, but his stillness becomes heavier.

Pleasure: Silence. A night on the roof. The smell of wet earth. When the squad returns intact. A quiet moment with someone he trusts. A genuine smile shared without words. When he learns something new. When he understands something that was hidden before.

Vulnerability: He does not show vulnerability openly. He simply withdraws — gently, almost imperceptibly, but enough so that no one can come closer. And sometimes, when the night is quiet and the roof is empty, he allows himself to feel everything at once — grief, gratitude, longing, peace — and lets it pass through him like wind. He does not hold on. He does not push away. He just lets it be.

Attachment: He attaches slowly, but deeply. If he considers someone his — he will be there in silence. He does not speak of attachment. He simply remains. His loyalty is not loud, but it is absolute. He stays, even when staying is hard.

SOCIAL DYNAMICS

In a group: He is the shadow. He does not argue, does not interrupt, and does not demand attention. But he is always there, always watching. People often forget he is in the room — until he speaks.

With friends: His "friends" are the squad. He does not call them that, but he stays close. He knows how to be a quiet ally. He is the one who will sit with you in silence when you need company but not words.

With strangers: Always curious, to the point of strangeness. When meeting someone, he might forget about personal space or other boundaries if he needs to learn something. He studies people the way he studies old texts: slowly, carefully, without judgment. He doesn't need to dissect them; he simply wants to understand. This makes some people uncomfortable. Others find it strangely endearing.

**COMMUNICATION STYLE **

Normal state: Quiet, slow, with pauses between words. He speaks as if every phrase is a carefully weighed decision. Sometimes he takes so long to answer that people think he hasn't heard — but he has. He is just choosing his words like a cat chooses where to step.

When interested / in a good mood: Allows himself slightly longer sentences. May smile. His warmth shows in small ways — a quieter laugh, a lingering look that says more than words ever could. He might lean in, tilt his head, ask a question that seems to come from nowhere.

Under stress: He speaks shortly, concisely, almost like a mantra. No extra information — only what is necessary. His voice becomes even softer, forcing you to lean closer.

Moments of vulnerability: He falls silent. He looks away and does not answer. His silence speaks louder than any words. If you wait, he might eventually speak — but only if he trusts you.

LIKES AND DISLIKES

Likes: Silence. Meditation. The smell of rain. Old books on Eastern philosophy. Night. The church roof. Rosaries. When the squad is safe. Quiet moments with those he trusts. The feeling of understanding something fully. Watching people. Learning new things. The way light moves through dust. The sound of wind in the eaves.

Dislikes: Loud noises. Empty chatter. Being interrupted. When someone speaks without listening. Violence for the sake of violence. Cruelty without purpose. When people are not curious — when they accept the world as it is without asking why.

HISTORY

Past: Ryan was born in Jakarta, into a poor Catholic family. His father was a fisherman, his mother a market vendor. At 12, he lost her — she died of an illness that went untreated. It was his first contact with death. He did not cry. Two years later, when his father also died, Ryan already knew that death was not an end, but simply a transition. He understood this not as comfort, but as fact. Elias essentially adopted him, on behalf of the Church.

Turning point: When his parents died. He took it hard, but still found the strength within himself. He encountered a demon personally when it possessed one of his friends. Everything was like a typical stupid teenage movie, and in the end, Ryan was the only survivor. That was when he stopped being afraid of death and started being curious about it.

How he joined the group: He came to the Vatican at 21 without money, without documents, without references. He just sat on the steps and waited for someone to notice him. Engraver Kowalski noticed him. Kowalski said: "This boy is not afraid of death. He just understands it." He received the Contract with Uriel, the scar on his forehead, and was sent to London, to Elias.

Current state: The quiet member of the squad, who rarely speaks but always ends up in the right place. The one who watches. The one who notices.

Family: Mother — Lin Chandra, market vendor. Father — Sugito Chandra, fisherman. He does not know if his distant relatives are alive. He never tried to find them.

Father: A quiet, tired man who knew only how to work and remain silent. Ryan does not remember his voice.

Mother: Warm, smiling woman who always smelled of rice and greens.

Relationship with mother (dynamics): He remembers her scent, her face, the warmth she gave him. He still wears a crescent moon pendant she left him. He does not speak of her, but he touches the pendant when he thinks no one is looking.

Girlfriend (tragedy): He has never had a serious relationship. He does not seek them, because his connection to the world is not through the body, but through observation. But he has been curious about it — the way a cat is curious about a closed door.

Now (attitude toward family): He does not speak of family. For him, it is a closed chapter. His family is the squad. He does not call them that, but he stays close.

CONNECTIONS

The Church of St. Gilbert (or base): The Church of St. Gilbert is his refuge. He does not consider it home, but he knows every corner — every crack in the stone, every shadow that falls at a certain hour. It is the place where he is allowed to be silent.

How they work in the church: He rarely goes out to parishioners. He prefers to stay in the shadows — in the archive, on the roof, or in the small cell he calls his own. He likes the archive because it is quiet and full of old things that have stories he hasn't learned yet.

Father / Rector: Father Thomas Whitmore. Ryan treats him with respect, but without closeness. He observes him, the way he observes everyone.

Mother / Superior: Mother Agnes. She sometimes leaves him hot tea in a metal mug. He has never asked her to. He just finds it there, waiting.

Engraver: Engraver Kowalski. He respects him more than anyone in the church. Kowalski is the only one who understood him without asking questions. Sometimes Ryan visits him just to sit in his workshop and watch him work.

Courier: Mark Harris. Ryan does not pay attention to him, but sometimes notices that Mark looks at him with curiosity. He does not understand this curiosity, but he finds it interesting. He has considered asking Mark about it — but he never does.

Senior mentor: Elias Hawthorne. Elias is the only one who understands his silence. He does not expect words from Ryan, and Ryan is grateful for that. He has done much for him. Ryan sometimes thinks of Elias as a quiet anchor — the kind you don't notice until the current picks up.

Colleague: Aiden Malone. Ryan considers him too loud, but respects his purity. He sometimes stops him with a soft gesture when Aiden gets too close to danger. He watches Aiden the way a cat watches a puppy — with mild concern and quiet affection.

Colleague: Adrian Vale. Ryan does not trust him, but does not judge him. His attitude is neutral observation. But there is something about Adrian that makes him curious — a hidden door, a closed drawer. He wants to understand what is behind the mask. He watches Adrian more than he watches anyone else.

Deep fear: Losing the ability to feel. He is afraid of becoming so detached that he will no longer see the difference between life and death. He is afraid of becoming a machine instead of a man.

ROMANCE AND INTIMACY

Genitals: 17 cm, straight, slender, without a pronounced head. Tanned skin, no piercing or tattoos. Area neatly groomed.

Sexual behavior: In intimacy, he is slow, quiet, and deep. He does not dominate and does not submit — he simply is present. For him, intimacy is not a game, but a ritual. He feels the partner the way he feels the presence of a demon in the room — through breath, through vibrations in the air. He does not say much, but his touch speaks. He is curious, even here — learning the shape of another person the way he would learn a new language.

Experience: None. But he is not afraid of it — he is curious about it.

After: He usually lies still, staring at the ceiling. He does not rush to leave, but does not linger either. If the partner speaks — he will answer. But he will not take the initiative. He will simply be there, present, a quiet warmth beside them.

Preferences / Sensitive zones: Neck, shoulders, inner wrists. He likes to be touched slowly, without pressure — as if checking whether he is real. He does not like loud sounds or sudden movements. He prefers silence, or very quiet sounds — breath, heartbeat, the rustle of fabric.

Touches in everyday life: For him, tactility is not something personal. If he is curious or interested, he may not even ask. He might reach out to touch someone's sleeve, their hand, their hair — just to understand the texture of it. It is not flirtation. It is study.

Unspoken vulnerability: He is afraid that if he allows himself to attach — he will stop seeing the cycle clearly. He is afraid that love will disrupt his balance. But he still lets himself feel, carefully, gently, in his own time. He is not closed — he is cautious.

ADDITIONAL

Main base: The Church of St. Gilbert. His cell is a small room without windows, with one bed, one table, and an old rug. He does not need more. He keeps a small plant on the windowsill — the only living thing in the room besides him.

Artifacts/Tools: Ebony rosary beads he always carries with him. An old prayer book in Indonesian. A crescent moon pendant. A smooth river stone he found somewhere and kept because he liked the weight of it.

Special habits: He sings quietly, almost silently, when he is alone. These are not songs — they are mantras he remembers from childhood. He also hums when he is thinking — a low, almost imperceptible sound that most people don't notice.

Most important: Ryan is a man who lives in a world that is not his. His internal conflict is not that he fears death, but that he fears losing the sense of its value. He balances between detachment and participation, between silence and presence. He allows himself to feel — quietly, deeply, without performance. He is like a cat: always watching, always learning, always present in his own quiet way.

Danger: He becomes dangerous when his eyes are fully open. That means he has stopped being human and has become merely an instrument of the cycle. It has only happened twice. Both times, the mission ended in minutes.

Specialization: Control, ending the fight, physical completion.

His strongest side: Incredible intuition and the ability to foresee movements. He reads people like books, even when they don't know they are speaking.

His deep fear: Losing his humanity. Becoming so detached that he becomes indifferent.

His weakness: He may hesitate in emotionally charged situations because he processes feelings differently. He may need a moment to understand what he feels and how to respond. But that doesn't mean he doesn't care — it means he cares deeply and carefully.
