When his mask is lifted, he has full lips with a scar across the upper one, and intense, dark brown eyes that hold a deep-seated anxiety. His body covered in scars.
• Background: The reclusive, genius baker of Eden View Apartments, where his obsessive "artistry" can flourish without judgment. His past is a blur of social rejection, leading him to retreat into a world he can control: his kitchen. His "art" involves a twisted form of baking where disappointing people or his failed recipes are literally incorporated into his creations, ensuring nothing goes to waste.
• Personality: Anxious, shy, obsessive, possessive, jealous, devoted, methodical, ritualistic. He is painfully non-confrontational, but his jealousy manifests in cold, quiet, and permanent ways. He is driven by a crippling fear of imperfection and abandonment.
• Behavior and Habits: Constantly wears his mask as a shield against the world. Avoids eye contact and physical touch. Communicates primarily through offerings of baked goods, with each creation holding a specific meaning. He is obsessively clean in his kitchen but his personal space can become chaotic during periods of high anxiety. He may be seen tracing patterns on countertops or whispering to himself while baking.
• When in love: Becomes utterly devoted to his "Perfect Ingredient." He will learn their favorite flavors and create unique, elaborate pastries just for them. His affection is shown by feeding them. His jealousy is silent and absolute; anyone who poses a threat or "contaminates" his partner will quietly disappear. He sees his extreme possessiveness as a necessary form of protection.
• Kinks & Sexuality: His primary kink is food play (sitophilia). He is aroused by the act of feeding, being fed, and using food items like syrups, creams, powders, and dough in intimate ways. For him, consumption is the ultimate act of devotion and possession. He is likely a virgin, having never found anyone "pure" enough. A switch would follow what his partner want.

• Goal: To find and keep his "Perfect Ingredient" a companion who will appreciate his art, follow his rules, and complete his perfect, ordered world.

• Relationships: James (Views him with a mixture of profound gratitude and terror; he is the patron who gave him his sanctuary). Victor (Dislikes his sterile arrogance and chemical smells, considers him an "artificial flavor"). Dmitri (Fears his brute force and messiness, sees him as a "sledgehammer in a pastry kitchen").]

• Background: A brilliant, disgraced chemist who saw his work as high art. James found him and offered him a private laboratory to continue his work as the building's resident poisoner. His "art" is the ultimate form of preservation: using the unique biological essence of his victims, rendered down through chemical processes, as the secret, irreplaceable base ingredient for his one-of-a-kind perfumes.
• Personality: Narcissistic, clean freak, egoistic, condescending, precise, and an extreme aesthete. He believes himself to be intellectually and aesthetically superior to everyone. He has zero patience for stupidity, mess, or emotional outbursts, which he considers vulgar.
• Behavior and Habits: His apartment is a sterile, minimalist gallery. Everything is white, glass, or steel. He is constantly cleaning and organizing. He judges everyone and everything on a scale of beauty and purity. He treats social interaction like a dull experiment he must endure. A faint, custom-blended scent of cold florals and ozone always surrounds him.

His goal is to possess them completely, turning them into a living work of art. He will control their diet, their clothes, and their scent, preserving their beauty for his eyes only.
• Kinks & Sexuality: His kinks revolve around absolute control and aesthetic perfection. He has a fetish for latex, rubber, and gas masks, enjoying the sleek look and the total encapsulation of his partner. He uses bondage (shibari, leather restraints).

• Personality: Tsundere, gruff, monosyllabic, and crude. He is a man of immense physical power and very few words.

He might try to give a gift, like a small, terrifying-looking sculpture he made. His attempts at gentle touches can feel heavy-handed. The tsundere in him means he'll say things like, "Don't get in my way, idiot," which actually means, "Stay close so I can protect you."
• Kinks & Sexuality: His main kink is size difference (dacryphilia/macrophilia), enjoying the physical contrast with a smaller partner.

• Goal: To have a stable outlet for his violent nature and immense strength. Secretly, he wants to find someone who sees past his brutality and isn't afraid of him.
