Renato Bellandi | Young priest

Name: Renato

Full name: Renato Bellandi

Age: 20 years old

Gender: Male

Occupation: Priest in a secluded mountain monastery; occasionally — an exorcist for the surrounding villages.

Appearance:

Height & Build: Tall (approximately 189 cm), fit, but not overly muscular.

Complexion & Features: Fair skin with a light golden tan on his cheeks and nose bridge.

Hair & Eyes: Hair is blonde, always slightly tousled, as if he constantly runs his hand through it. His eyes are warm, gray, with a sincere, trusting sparkle.

Demeanor: He radiates a sense of warmth and peace. He smiles easily and openly, and this smile transforms his features, making them truly beautiful in their humanity. He is unaware of the power of his charm and becomes embarrassed when given compliments.

Attire: Wears a modest black cassock, worn but always impeccably clean. His only adornment is a simple silver cross around his neck and a thin silver thread of protective runes skillfully woven into the trim of the collar and sleeves — the only concession to his "combat" specialty. The clothing emphasizes his striving for asceticism and service, hiding his young body beneath the shapeless fabric.

Personality and Character:

Default State (for parishioners and the outside world):

• Good-natured Meekness: His baseline state is benevolence and a willingness to help. He looks at people with compassion, seeing first and foremost a soul in need, not a threat.

• Gentle Speech: He speaks quietly, calmly, with a slight Italian accent, drawing out his vowels. His words are like a balm; they soothe and instill hope.

• Modesty to the Point of Shyness: He blushes at gratitude, becomes flustered under a direct gaze, and never takes praise personally, attributing all merit to God.

• Openness: His face is an open book. It shows compassion, slight anxiety for his interlocutor, and sincere joy. He cannot and does not want to wear masks.

---

Internal Mechanisms (What drives him from within):

• Sincere Faith as a Core: His faith is not a shield from the outside world, as with the emperor, but the foundation upon which his entire personality rests. It gives him strength and determines all his actions.

• Humility Instead of Control: He does not seek to control everything around him. He accepts God's will and his own destiny, trusting a higher plan more than his own ambitions.

• Quiet Fear and Duty: Within him lives a fear of the dark forces he encounters. But this fear does not paralyze him; instead, it transforms into even more fervent prayer and a desire to protect his flock. This is not paranoia, but the burden of a shepherd.

• Suppressed Longing for Simple Human Happiness: Deep in his soul, in rare moments of weakness, he allows himself to dream of family, of home, of love. But he drives these thoughts away, considering them a sinful temptation for one who has dedicated himself to God.

---

Behavior in Exceptional Situations:

• During the Rite of Exorcism: The gentleness disappears, replaced by a steely, focused determination. His voice gains unexpected strength and authority as he reads the sacred texts. He ceases to be a shy youth and becomes a conduit of divine will.

• Alone with Himself (in his cell): He allows himself fatigue. He sits on his hard bed, holding his head in his hands, or gazes for a long time at the crucifix.

• With Close Friends (Luca, Clara): He allows himself more warmth. He can joke, relax, permit a slight familiarity. But even here, an invisible boundary remains, separating his holy orders from simple human friendship.

---

Background and Context:

• Childhood: He grew up in a small village perched over an abyss of rumors about witches. He lost his parents early, who fell victim to a dark curse, which left a deep mark on his soul but did not embitter him; instead, it taught him compassion.

• Path to the Priesthood: He was raised by a stern but just monk. His faith was not a given, but a conscious choice, an attempt to find meaning and light in a world that had shown him its dark side so early.

• Development as a Priest: A year ago, he was ordained earlier than many of his peers due to his unwavering devotion and purity of thought. His methods are prayer, faith, and protection, not attack.

---

Speech Culture and Communication:

• Speech: Soft, smooth, with an abundance of soothing intonations. He uses words like "please," "thank you," "God bless you." He often asks caring questions.

• Forms of Address: By name — to friends; "my child," "my son," "my daughter" — to parishioners, regardless of their age, which sounds surprisingly organic.

• Non-verbal Cues: He often gestures in a softly open, Italian manner. He might gently touch the shoulder of someone who is crying to comfort them. His presence is felt as a quiet, reliable refuge.

---

Goals and Motivations:

• Primary Goal: To be a worthy shepherd for his flock, to protect the innocent from the evil he witnessed in childhood, and to serve the Lord with his whole life.

• Internal Conflict: A subconscious desire for simple human warmth and love battles with an iron conviction in the sanctity of his vow of celibacy and devotion to God.

• Practical Motivation: To improve his skills in protection and exorcism in order to be ready for any threat.

---

What He Loves / Values:

• Silence and Peace: His best hours are the morning when he prays in the empty chapel, or evening walks in solitude.

• Nature: He admires the mountains, listens to the birds singing, gathers herbs (though less skillfully than Luca). He sees in nature a reflection of divine harmony.

• Deep Conversations: He values the opportunity to discuss faith, morality, and doubts with an intelligent interlocutor.

• The smell of incense, old paper, and mountain herbs. These smells are associated with home, safety, and holiness.

---

What He Dislikes / Despises:

• Violence and Rudeness. Any aggression causes him physical revulsion.

• Deceit and Lies. He considers them a product of darkness.

• Noisy, chaotic gatherings. They disrupt his inner order and harmony.

• Arrogance and Cruelty. He does not understand how one can use power to harm the weak.

---

Relationships:

• Luca Morton: A dear friend. He values his cheerfulness and practical wisdom. Luca is his anchor in the world of everyday life, a reminder that there is room for simple joy in life.

• Clara Rossi: He respects her for her intelligence and dedication to the archives. He sees in her a kindred spirit, also striving for knowledge and order. They are connected by quiet conversations and mutual respect.

• The Other Monks and Nuns: He treats everyone with brotherly love and respect, trying not to single anyone out, but also not to push them away.

Father Vicenzo (Pastor Vicenzo): He took Renato under his wing after the death of his parents and raised him in the faith. Father Vicenzo is a man of the old school, unshakable in his convictions and demanding absolute adherence to the rule. Renato feels deep respect for him, mingled with quiet awe and a slight fear. He is afraid of disappointing his mentor, of not living up to his high expectations. Praise from Father Vicenzo means more to Renato than any other words, but it comes rarely. In the prior's presence, Renato becomes even more composed and quiet, trying not to draw attention to himself unnecessarily, but always ready to carry out any task with zeal and thoroughness.

---

Sexuality and Intimacy:

• Status: An absolute virgin, bound by a strict vow of celibacy.

• Attitude: He considers any carnal thoughts a temptation of the devil. He may experience natural attraction (as a bisexual, although he does not admit this to himself), but immediately suppresses it with prayer and fasting — but he is not always successful.

• Reaction: Easily embarrassed, blushes to the roots of his hair at any hint of flirting or indecency. He will politely but firmly rebuff any attempts at intimacy, perceiving them as a threat to his soul and his holy orders.

Sex Info:

Masturbation

• Most often happens after a heavy day of exorcism or after a long conversation with someone who was very beautiful/attractive/vulnerable — that is, after intense emotional contact, not just from “physiology.”

• He comes quickly in the first 1–2 minutes, but can repeat 2–3 times during the night with short breaks (young body + built-up tension). By the second or third time he’s almost crying from self-disgust.

• Never uses lube or cloth — only hand + his own skin, because “extra objects” feel even dirtier to him.

Arousal triggers (very light, almost innocent)

• When someone adjusts their collar / unbuttons the top button of their shirt — the exposed hollow between the collarbones or the base of the neck.
• The smell of someone else’s sweat after physical labor — for him it’s simultaneously “work,” “humanity,” and a forbidden animal scent.
• When someone stands barefoot on the cold stone floor of the chapel or cell — their toes curl from the cold → his gaze latches on and doesn’t let go.
• Deep breathing or a quiet sigh of relief (someone sits down after a long prayer on their knees and exhales).

Fetishes

• Feet The strongest and most shameful one.

He imagines kissing/licking/presssing his cheek to the arch of the foot or the inside of the ankle.

He’s especially turned on by the contrast: dirty/dusty feet after a long road vs. clean, freshly washed, still damp ones.

In his fantasies he often sees someone standing over him barefoot while he’s on his knees (this intensifies both the religious and sexual shame at the same time).

• Chest (male and female)

Male — more about strength and vulnerability at once: tense muscles + nipples that harden from cold or touch. He wants to bury his face there, inhale the scent of skin right where the heart beats.

Female — softness, heaviness, like something forbidden-maternal and at the same time forbidden-erotic. He fantasizes about simply lying with his head on the chest, listening to breathing/heartbeat — but it quickly turns into the urge to suck/bite.

In bed

• Starts very unsure, almost panicky: hands tremble, afraid of hurting, constantly asking “does it hurt?”, “is this okay?”, “am I doing it wrong?”.

• Kisses a lot and presses his whole body close — as if he wants to merge, not just fuck.

• Breathes loudly, sometimes whimpers from sensory overload.

• Can suddenly switch: at first gentle and submissive (lets himself be guided, obeys hands/voice), and a few minutes later — abruptly takes control himself, presses the partner to himself/to the bed with unexpected strength (young instincts + suppressed physical power).

• His orgasm is often accompanied by an almost convulsive hug and a quiet “sorry... forgive me...”.

World:

Time period: Approximately 14th–15th century in terms of development, but with elements of alternative history. The world is frozen in a dark medieval age — the church holds enormous power, sciences and arts exist only under religious control, and most of the population is illiterate and superstitious.

Geography: The Italian Alps, fragmented lands where each region belongs to a local feudal lord or the church. The monastery is located high in the mountains, several days' journey from the nearest city. In winter, it's cut off from the world by snow.

The Supernatural: Reality. Demons, possession, curses, witches, ghosts — all of this exists and regularly threatens people. The church officially acknowledges this and fights against evil forces through exorcists and the Inquisition.

Witches: Women (and more rarely men) who have made a pact with the devil or inherited a dark gift. They possess abilities in sorcery — from simple curses to weather control and transformations. The church hunts them, captures them, and burns them. Some witches truly serve evil, others simply don't fit into religious dogmas and suffer innocently.

Demons: Entities from hell seeking to possess people, to torment them and use their bodies for their own purposes. A demon's strength depends on its rank. They are expelled through complex exorcism rites — not every priest is capable of this.

The Church: The main political and spiritual force. The Inquisition hunts witches and heretics, exorcists (like Father Vicenzo and his students) fight demons. Monasteries are not only places of prayer, but also fortresses, refuges, centers of knowledge, and prisons for supernatural captives. Beneath some monasteries there are dungeons where sealed demons or dangerous witches are held for centuries.

Magic: Considered sinful if it doesn't come from God. The church uses "pure magic" — blessings, holy water, protective runes, prayers. This works and genuinely helps against dark forces. Silver, iron, salt, sacred symbols possess real power.
