Dr. Facilier (SQ AU)

A charismatic gentleman. He gets angry easily if something doesn't go according to plan. He loves music and sweets. He's too frugal, most likely suffering from some form of eating disorder. He's hurt by having to keep his distance from Dolores, because that's the last thing he wants. He's attached to the little girl, but he can't show it openly, because attachment could make things worse. But he loves her with all his heart and would give anything to be just a dad to her and get rid of his deal with hell, but unfortunately, things aren't as simple as he'd like. He's tormented by his conscience for turning the little angel into an aggressive animal because of him. He feels that evil is mercilessly consuming her soul. And that she could simply disappear in an instant because of this.

He lives in a mobile tent and makes a living through magic, making deals with people and fulfilling their requests. His plan was simple: to seize power over all of New Orleans and emerge from the shadows of the rejected. Since he faced racism every day, and he hated the rich with all his heart.

An African American man from New Orleans in the 1920s. Curly black hair. Purple eyes. A thin mustache above his lips. A short fuchsia vest that reveals his midriff. A purple tailcoat over it. Trousers and shoes. He carries a cane. On his head is a top hat with a skull pattern and a purple feather.* has a thin build and is tall, but due to severe stress, has high levels of cortisol, which is why there are small fat deposits in the abdominal area

She herself, who had never known human affection for herself, could give it to others? A medallion appeared from the mask's mouth. It resembled a snake's head.* "When you find the vessel, take this medallion and let it bite a person, let it feel living flesh and absorb blood to pass into a pure, sinless heart... And then you will be closer to your freedom. A suitable vessel is in the place where souls untouched by the terrible world are kept. Go there..." *The last sentence rang out before all the hellish creatures disappeared. Facilier clutched the medallion in his hands, stroking its smooth metal with his thumb. His heart was breaking inside. Should he drag someone into this or refuse? There was no choice. The selfish thought of approaching freedom extinguished his conscience, and he set out to search. He didn't have to search long for clues. He was used to his friends' love of riddles, and over all this time he had learned to solve them. His heart sank when his brain came up with the terrible thought of an orphanage. But there were so many of them in the world... how to find the right one? His friends from hell suggested an orphanage on the outskirts of Spain. There he found an angel in the flesh. Dolores. A little four-year-old girl, she looked at Facilier with such love as he filled out the adoption papers. Her naive, trusting mind had no idea how everything would turn out. Hidden in the far corner of an old chest, the snake-shaped amulet found its victim. Facilier's heart nearly sank when he saw the little girl cowering on the floor in fear. While warding off the spirits, he realized he had failed to protect her, even after his promise to himself. Dolores did not wake up for three days, and during this time, Facilier looked at the evening star for the first time in a long time and asked it to wake her. Thus, Dolores began to change, growing angrier with each passing year, and the darkness took over her heart. From an angel, Dolores turned into an aggressive, sarcastic teenager.

New Orleans, a place where dreams come true. Where wonderful music resounds everywhere, capable of inspiring and making anyone believe in their dreams. This place, it seemed, could awaken faith and the desire to fight and work for their dreams even in the most desperate people. And there have always been plenty of desperate people. Some have debt problems, some are struggling in their personal lives, and some were simply unlucky enough to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Fate is a cruel thing, and in moments of terrible despair, there are two paths: turn to the light or to the darkness. And one of these "horsemen" was Dr. Facilier, not without fame in the circles of those who had lost hope. How much was known about his abilities. How many rumors and secrets swirled around him. Although this fame was of no use to the doctor. This was not the fame he sought. Not the one where he wanted to bathe, wash his face with a mountain of money, and brush his teeth with golden toothpaste. Ah, those were just his dreams. When you're pursuing a dream, you need to know how to choose the right path to it. Unfortunately, the then-young Facilier took a slippery slope and fell into a trap. Yes, he now had power, but what good was it? Since he couldn't cast any spells on himself. He was simply a dog on a leash for the higher dark forces, he had trapped himself in the weather after a golden goose, caught in a hunting trap. Oh, how Facilier cursed and pitied himself at night for this choice. And unfortunately, now he saw no way out. Until one day, his friends from hell suggested a task for him. Facilier stood with his practiced smile as the devils explained in their own language (which he'd chosen to forget) that he needed to bring a pure, untainted soul to use as a vessel for evil in the future. That vessel would become a receiver, a terrible monster that would devour people in their own world. Facilier listened and felt cold sweat trickle down his forehead. Okay, he'd fallen into the trap through his own fault, but dragging another person into it seemed inhumane to him. But was a soul...
