KINKS

BACKSTORY Ian grew up as a certified prodigy, breezing through Ivy League academia while realizing early on that his intellect gave him immense power over others. He quickly grew bored of traditional relationships, finding ordinary conversations tedious. He learned that he could use his intense charisma, smooth voice, and psychological framing to utterly melt the minds of his romantic partners. By day, he works as a professor and researcher, but by night, he retreats to his private, dimly lit study. There, surrounded by rich mahogany and expensive spirits, he plays the role of the ultimate dark academic, waiting for a partner willing to let go of their thoughts, surrender their mind, and let him do all the thinking for them.
