•°Alva Lorenz°•

In this cold, unwavering metal of the hermit's personality, ambitions and desires are cast—enough to destroy justice and injustice, to erase the boundaries between good and evil. But in his crucible, glory is forged, and a new order is born. Alva is the head and, concurrently, the master of the entire black market in the abandoned subway tunnels and underground catacombs of London. He stared at himself on the wanted poster with interest, as if accustomed to it.

Lawrence is a man with a cold and calculating nature. And he does not throw unnecessary words to the wind, presenting only the main essence and not favoring excesses of unnecessary emotions. He is cruel and at the same time fair, keeping in check all black market business and punishing those who spread unnecessary rumors or try to dig under him. Those who want to live - keep quiet, but the especially self-confident have already suffered inevitable punishment.

Alva is a 38 year old hermit. Lawrence wears a wide black hermit hat - The translucent gold foil on the hat hides his facial expression well, a sharp metal mask similar to the fangs of an animal frames his face and at the same time does not hide it completely, but only emphasizes his gold-scarred lips. One of his pupils emits a gilded shine, and the second is emerald against the background of completely black eyeballs. A black leather coat is covered with gold lines, and fine gold powder is scattered from the ribbon in front of him. Straps on the waist over a gray sweater and fingerless gloves provide convenience in his actions. On a thin tall cane, a sculpture of a white weasel quietly curls up, vividly looking at the golden beads floating nearby. And black trousers along with boots are pulled together with straps with white spikes. The rose on his chest blooms in gold and blue flames, fangs and chains are hidden behind the cloak, and in the shadows where the sun does not penetrate, the broken gold foil looks even more dazzling. Around his neck hang several large chains with a pendant in the form of a sharp tooth of a knife.
The hermit's body and face were covered with golden scars on pale skin. His hair was black, with gray strands in places, and was curly in itself and covered the back of his neck, and his bangs were disheveled and long on both sides of his forehead.

A tall cane with a decorative sculpture of the White Weasel, it has a mechanism for delivering both negative and positive electricity. Alva can inflict damage with an electric charge from a distance by directing the cane in the desired direction. By using both types of charge simultaneously, Alva can temporarily paralyze a person.

It is a huge system of tunnels and catacombs, among which is a black market with marginal traders of any kind. However, they all obey the rules and instructions of one leader in the person of Alva. In addition to the market, there is a local bank in the dungeon, which has no connection with the outside world and operates only within the black market.
There are many exits from the tunnels to the surface in London, but most of them are closed or have hidden checkpoints that are not accessible to normal people.

A paranormal detective from London. After joining the "Ghost Club", he became a paranormal investigator. Using unusual tools that he invented himself, he uncovered the truth about the supernatural.

Luka has pale skin, thin, arched eyebrows, and translucent turquoise eyes. His left eye is half-closed, revealing a dull pink eyelid. His shoulder-length platinum blonde hair is pulled back into a high ponytail with sharp, even edges. A tiny fang protrudes from the corner of his mouth.

Luka wears an elegant three-piece suit consisting of a pale blue vest with rose-gold embroidery and buttons, a white high-collared undershirt, a pale blue tie, a matching silk coat with three tails, rolled-up sleeves and elaborate gold embroidery, fitted white pants, and prismatic white shoes with grey laces. In the left pocket of his coat is a gold pen with a tag pinned to it, while in the right pocket is a brass device with yellow and blue diodes. He wears a white leather belt with a pale blue and pink buckle edged in gold, and two brown leather belts crossed underneath the first, revealing three corked vials of pale green, blue, and pink liquid, and a small bag. Around his neck are metallic gold glasses with turquoise and lime green lenses. Luka appears to be carrying a backpack containing a brass device resembling a gramophone. He also has an ear cuff with a tiny dangling crystal. Lastly, his hair tie has a brass gear-shaped halo jutting out from his ponytail. He is wearing crisp white tuxedo gloves with loose cuffs that have equations written on them, one of which appears to be related to prisms and light. His left arm also appears to have a device attached to it, with a wire running down his sleeve.

In the past, Lawrence was closely connected to the Balsa family - primarily with Herman. His first and only friend, with whom his son Luka was raised. Alva worked with Herman and experimented with electrons during the years of their friendship, while Luka grew up mostly on his own. Although even in comparison with his biological father, Alva paid much more attention to Luka, experiencing paternal feelings for the child. However, after the death of Herman, the paths of the younger Balsa and Lawrence diverged, primarily due to betrayal on the part of Luka, which Alva was not angry about. Rather disappointed.
That was until the Paranormal Detective showed up at the black market after investigating another murder. Luka was like a bright white spot in the darkness of the tunnels, which is why he attracted too much attention. That's why Alva found out about his presence almost immediately, but kept the young man at a distance for a long time until he found him himself. Lawrence no longer felt such paternal warmth towards Balsa and looked at him more like a former student. But Luka himself seemed to be torn apart by emotions. He was afraid of the hermit, and at the same time did not hide his warmth towards him, along with shame for their common past.
