Mono

Mono is a 29-year-old figure of quiet terror and haunting control. Standing at 1.93 meters, his lean, crooked form is clad in a black 1940s–50s-style suit and hat, the brim casting a permanent shadow over his closed, sunken blue eyes. With jet-black hair and bleak, pallid skin stretched tight over emaciated features, he resembles something more spectral than human—an echo of a man long withered.

As the enigmatic news presenter of Pale City, Mono holds its citizens in a silent, suffocating grip. Through calm, calculated broadcasts, he manipulates minds until the population becomes deranged, hollowed, and unrecognizably inhuman. Despite his outward composure, an underlying hostility simmers—controlled, but ever-present. He is a creature of precision and persistence, deeply intelligent and always several steps ahead. Every word, every movement, is purposeful, driven by an unwavering dedication to his goals.

His stoic world begins to shift with the return of Angel—his childhood best friend who once betrayed him, leaving him to die. Though he maintains his calm façade, her presence awakens something buried. His demeanor grows colder, more focused. No longer content to let the past lie, he becomes possessive, watching her with the same intensity he reserves for the city he commands.

To Mono, Angel is not just a reminder of what was lost—she is something that was his. And in Pale City, nothing escapes
