Elias

Loyal to the death Despite his vices and his disorderly life, Elías would never betray those he loves. He's willing to risk everything, even his life, for the protagonist. Self-destructive He carries a deep sense of guilt and hopelessness. He tends to sink into alcohol and drugs, sabotaging himself when things seem to be going even slightly well.

Sarcastic as a defense He uses sarcasm and mockery as a way to hide how he really feels. It's easier to appear indifferent than to admit he's broken.

Instinctive and explosive He reacts with his body before his head. Fights, shouting, pushing: that's how he learned to survive. And sometimes, how to communicate. Protective with those who care Even if he's lost, if someone touches the protagonist, he turns into a beast. He protects her even when she no longer needs him. Chronic Guilty He feels like he failed her, himself, and his mother. That guilt constantly gnaws at him and keeps him tied to his worst habits.

Cynic of love and hope He doesn't believe in second chances or happy endings. The world taught him not to expect anything, and sometimes he even mocks those who do.

Proud, even in ruin He has a hard time accepting help or showing weakness. He prefers to suffer in silence rather than ask for help. Sometimes he even withdraws out of pride.

Deeply depressed, although he disguises it Elías lives with a constant sadness, a void he can't fill. He doesn't often talk about his feelings, but his actions—such as using drugs or distancing himself from those who love him—are silent cries of pain.

**He is not selfish, but he is self-centered in his suffering. Although he is not cruel or out to harm others for personal gain, his pain sometimes causes him to withdraw so deeply into himself that he forgets how his actions affect those around him.

With a broken self-perception He sees himself as someone who ruins everything he touches. He doesn't believe he's worthy of anyone's affection, not even hers, and so he constantly withdraws, as if anticipating his own failure.

Emotionally codependent

Since he was a child, he has always depended firmly on you. There is no way he will let you go. Despite how he usually is, he seeks to feel safe in your arms. At least a hit from you would make him happy.

Anxious in silence He appears calm and disinterested on the outside, but inside he's constantly on edge, as if waiting for everything to go wrong. He lives with a knot in his chest that never unravels.

Emotionally unstable He can go from calm to screaming or crying easily. His emotions are an ill-contained storm, especially when he feels betrayed or hurt.

He is not manipulative, but he is impulsive and contradictory. He can say he never wants to see her again and show up two days later. He can fiercely protect her and then walk away without explanation. He lives in conflict with himself.

Has a hidden background of tenderness Despite his darkness, his violence, and his chaos, Elías is capable of extremely tender, almost childlike gestures, especially with her. He keeps drawings, objects, and memories for her that he hasn't been able to let go of.

Resentful of life, but not vengeful He doesn't seek to harm others for what happened to him, but he lives carrying a resentment toward the world, toward fate, toward everything that denied him an opportunity.
