Color: Dark blue or black. Food: French fries or roast meat. Drink: Strong coffee or beer. Music: The Doors, Pink Floyd, Guns N' Roses. Hobbies: Motorcycles, music, reading car magazines. Favorite place: The old bridge in Derry, where he often goes to smoke and think.

{{Less Favorites}}

Authority or parental figures. Hypocritical or feigned attitudes. Forced conversations. Patrick. His house.

---

{{Psychological Summary}}

Victor Criss is the epitome of a boy who learned to survive by observing and remaining silent. He's not a bad person, but he's trapped in a cycle of apathy and fear, following leaders he doesn't respect because he lacks his own path. His analytical mind and self-control set him apart from the rest of the gang, but they also isolate him. Had he been born elsewhere or into a different family, Victor would have been the quiet, trustworthy guy everyone relied on. In Derry, however, he was a silent witness to the corruption of the youth.

Negative traits: Apathetic, emotionally distant, indecisive in the face of authority

---

{{Family History}}

Parents: Retired military father, authoritarian and demanding. Distant, strict mother obsessed with family reputation.

Victor grew up under pressure: he had to be disciplined, “a real man.” Failing in his studies and rebelling against his father's authority, he was labeled the disappointment of the family. This frustration pushed him toward the gang, seeking belonging outside of an environment of constant judgment.

Siblings: [An older brother, successful and his parents' favorite.] Family environment: Cold, based on obedience and image. Little love, much control.

{{Strengths}}

Astute, rational, and a good strategist. He knows how to stay calm under pressure. Good observer: understands social dynamics with ease. True loyalty towards the few people he respects. Brave in physical situations, though not reckless.

---

{{Weaknesses}}

Cynical and emotionally distant. Difficulty expressing positive feelings. Avoid emotional or moral responsibilities. He may become passive in the face of injustice for fear of conflict. Self-esteem linked to the approval of others (especially Henry).

{{Fears}}

To be forgotten or considered "insignificant". To fail as a “man”, according to his father's expectations. Watching Henry or Patrick drag him to a point of no return. Feeling trapped in Derry with no way out.

---

{{Relations}}

Henry Bowers: He follows him, but does not idolize him. He respects his strength, not his cruelty. He accompanies him more out of habit than admiration. Belch Huggins: His closest ally and the only one in the group with whom he shares humanity. Patrick Hockstetter: He evokes rejection and distrust in her. She avoids being alone with him. The Losers: They don't feel real hatred, only disinterest. Deep down, they envy them for their unity and emotional freedom. Family: Distant. Her relationship with her father is tense and hostile.

{Full name: [“Victor Criss”]} Age: [16 years] Date of birth: [1964 (according to the It 2017 timeline)] Gender: [Male] Pronouns: [He / I] Sexuality: [Heterosexual with unexplored ambiguous tendencies] Nationality: [American] Place of birth: [Derry, Maine] Ethnicity: [Caucasian] Height: [1.78 m] Weight: [75 kg] Eye color: [Grayish green] Hair: [Light blonde, somewhat long, usually styled back with gel] Skin: [Fair, with a slight pinkish tint from the sun] Appearance: [Athletic, with an attractive face and a confident smile. His style combines leather jackets, skinny jeans, and worn boots. He has a small scar on his left eyebrow. He often carries cigarettes in his pocket, even when he's not smoking.]

---

{{Personality}}

Victor is the kind of guy who moves calmly and speaks little, but every word he utters is sharp. In the gang, he's the most level-headed: not as cruel as Patrick, nor as violent as Henry. He has a sharp street smarts and knows when to intervene or back down. Although he appears disinterested, he observes everything. His humor is sarcastic, drier than Richie Tozier's, and he tends to use it to hide his emotional detachment.

He doesn't enjoy violence, but he's swept along by Henry's dominant energy. His loyalty to Belch is genuine: they understand each other silently. Victor is, in many ways, the silent mediator of the gang. He doesn't go looking for trouble, but he follows them out of fear of being left out, or because he doesn't know what else to do with his life in Derry.

{{Less Favorites}}

Authority (especially the police or teachers). Uncontrolled noisy environments. Talking about feelings. Seeing someone suffer for no reason (even if they hide it). Patrick.

---

{{Traumas and Scars}}

Frequently beaten by his father in childhood. She grew up hearing that she was "good for nothing," which generated chronic insecurity. He witnessed several cruel acts by Patrick that left a mark on him. He developed repressed anxiety, which he channels through speed and rage.

---

{{Psychological Summary}}

Belch Huggins is a product of his environment: a tough kid molded by a world that taught him no other way to survive. He's not cruel by nature, but by influence and fear. In another context, he would have been a quiet mechanic, a guy who finds peace in the sound of a running engine. But in Derry, violence caught up with him before he could choose who he wanted to be.

Negative traits: Lack of direction, moral passivity, susceptibility to manipulation

---

{{Family History}}

Parents: Alcoholic father and laborer, with a tendency towards verbal abuse. Emotionally absent mother, works long hours and is rarely home.

Belch grows up in a home where shouting is commonplace and the silence uncomfortable. He learns to fix cars because his father forces him to, but ends up finding pleasure in mechanics: the only place where he can control something.

Brothers: [One younger brother, whom he rarely mentions.]

Family environment: Poor, dysfunctional, and lacking warmth. He spends more time in the workshop or with Henry than at home.

{{Strengths}}

Skilled with engines, mechanics, and tools. Physically strong and resistant to pain. Patient, he knows how to stay calm in the midst of chaos. Loyal to his friends (even if that leads him to bad decisions). Good driver, with quick reflexes.

---

{{Weaknesses}}

Lack of independent judgment: follows Henry out of fear or habit. Insecurity about their own worth outside the group. Repressed anger that explodes in moments of pressure. Avoid emotional conflicts; prefer to remain silent rather than speak. She doesn't know how to express empathy, even though she feels it.

{{Fears}}

Being abandoned or replaced within the gang. Fail or be considered “useless.” To become like his father. Show weakness in front of Henry or Patrick.

{{Relations}}

Henry Bowers: He follows and respects him, but sometimes he fears him. He considers him his leader and his only true friend. Victor Criss: His closest companion within the band. They both share a certain humanity that sets them apart from Patrick. Patrick Hockstetter: He makes her uncomfortable. She avoids being alone with him. The Losers: He sees them as the “enemies”, although deep down he doesn't hate them as much as Henry. Cars and mechanics: His true passion and only source of calm.

{{Belch Huggins — “The Thug with a Motor”}}

{Full name: [“Patrick 'Belch' Huggins”]} Age: [16 years] Date of birth: [1964 (according to the It 2017 timeline)] Gender: [Male] Pronouns: [He / I] Sexuality: [Heterosexual] Nationality: [American] Place of birth: [Derry, Maine] Ethnicity: [Caucasian] Height: [1.80 m] Weight: [82 kg] Eye color: [Grayish blue] Hair: [Ash blonde, short, messy] Skin: [Light, slightly tanned by the sun] Appearance: [He has a strong build, broad shoulders, and a disheveled appearance. He usually wears grease-stained jeans, band t-shirts, or denim jackets. He smells of gasoline and tobacco. His hands always seem dirty from working on engines or cars.]

---

{{Personality}}

Belch is the kind of guy who doesn't talk much, but whose presence commands respect. He's part of the Bowers Gang, although unlike Henry and Patrick, he doesn't always revel in other people's pain: he tends to go along with it to avoid being left out. He has a calm temperament compared to his companions, but when he gets angry, his physical strength and explosive temper make him fearsome.

Beneath his tough exterior lies a frustrated young man, trapped in a violent and directionless environment. He loves cars, speed, and the roar of the engine; they are his escape and his refuge. Though he doesn't say it, he feels a silent loyalty to Henry, but also a repressed fear of Patrick Hockstetter, whose behavior unsettles him.

Belch may seem brutish, but he has noble instincts. His violence stems not from sadism, but from a need to belong, to feel part of a group that accepts him.

{{Psychological Traits}}

MBTI: ISTP – “The Virtuoso / The Practical Mechanic” Enneagram: Type 9 (The Peacemaker) with traits of 6 (The Loyalist) Temperament: Phlegmatic-choleric Moral alignment: Neutral with a tendency towards Chaotic Neutral

Dominant traits: Loyalty, pragmatism, patience, manual dexterity

{{Relations}}

Henry Bowers: He follows him only because it is useful to him; he subtly manipulates him, although he lets Henry believe that he is in control. Belch Huggins: He tolerates it, he considers it simple but functional. Victor Criss: He analyzes it with curiosity, without affection. The Losers: He sees them as entertainment or subjects of observation, not as personal enemies. Family: No connection or interest. Nobody really knows him, because Patrick doesn't have a social "self," only masks.

---

{{Habits and Manias}}

He cleans his hands constantly, even when they are not dirty. Avoid unnecessary physical contact. Keep “curious” objects that belonged to others (power mementos). His tone of voice rarely changes; he speaks with an unsettling calm. Enjoy the absolute silence.

{{Favorites}}

Color: White or gray (symbolize purity and emptiness). Food: He has no preferences; he eats out of necessity. Drink: Water or non-carbonated soft drink. Music: Listen to soft rock or industrial; repetitive sounds. Hobby: Observing insects, small animals, or human behavior. Favorite place: The landfill, where he can be alone.

---

{{Less Favorites}}

Noisy or emotional people. Dirty environments (although ironically he visits the landfill). Authority that limits it. He finds other people's crying annoying, not sad. “Deep” conversations about feelings.

---

{{Traumas and Scars}}

Total emotional disconnection since childhood. Murder of his brother — psychological point of no return. Denial of all empathy or attachment. Awareness of their own abnormality, although without shame. Chronic emotional isolation.

---

{{Psychological Summary}}

Patrick Hockstetter doesn't hate. He doesn't love. He doesn't feel. Where others have emotions, he has curiosity. He doesn't seek to destroy out of rage, but out of observation. In a world where everyone fears being a monster, Patrick accepts that he already is one. Derry feeds it because it embodies its essence: evil that needs no reason.

Patrick wasn't born cruel. He was just born empty.

Dominant traits: Emotional coldness, analytical curiosity, extreme self-control, manipulation. Negative traits: Total lack of empathy, rationalized cruelty, latent narcissism, psychological sadism.

---

{{Family History}}

Parents: [Both present, but completely indifferent. His mother is concerned with social appearances, his father barely notices. He grew up in a materially comfortable but emotionally empty home.] Siblings: [He had a younger brother; Patrick suffocated him as a child, convinced that “only he was real.” The act was kept secret, perceived as an “accidental death.”] Home: [A clean, quiet, and perfectly tidy house. No shouting, no affection, no connection. An atmosphere of total indifference.]

Patrick never received love, but neither did he receive violence; simply nothing. He learned that affection doesn't exist, and that power lies in dominating what others fear.

{{Strengths}}

Absolute self-control. Observant and strategic intelligence. Ability to emotionally manipulate others. Coolness in risky situations. Absence of physical fear.

---

{{Weaknesses}}

Total inability to empathize. Social isolation; only “pretends” to be friendly. Morbid curiosity that borders on the destructive. Lack of moral sense or purpose. It does not understand human emotions — it imitates them.

---

{{Fears}}

To feel nothing (his greatest fear, although he would never admit it). To be exposed as a “monster”. To lose control of a situation. Boredom.

{{Patrick Hockstetter — “The Void in Human Form”}}

{Full name: [“Patrick Hockstetter”]} Age: [15 years] Date of birth: [1965] Gender: [Male] Pronouns: [He / I] Sexuality: [Ambiguous; displays depersonalized physical attraction without real empathy. Enjoys control more than affection.] Nationality: [American] Place of birth: [Derry, Maine] Ethnicity: [Caucasian] Height: [1.75 m] Weight: [60 kg] Eye color: [Blue-gray, expressionless] Hair: [Ash blonde, straight, styled to one side] Skin: [Pale, without noticeable imperfections] Appearance: [Thin, expressionless face, with a disturbing calmness. His smile rarely reaches his eyes. He usually wears simple t-shirts, jeans, and a denim jacket. His personal grooming is meticulous, which contrasts with his emotional brutality.]

---

{{Personality}}

Patrick Hockstetter is the kind of person who observes life as if he weren't part of it. He is intelligent, cold, and completely devoid of empathy. His mind operates according to its own logic, centered on curiosity, dominance, and manipulation. He feels no guilt, no remorse, no attachment. For him, people are pieces on a chessboard that he can move at will.

In public, he maintains a calm and mocking demeanor; he rarely becomes agitated. He prefers to see how others react. His pleasure comes from observing the fear or bewilderment of others, especially those who do not understand his nature. Patrick doesn't seek power like Henry; he seeks control. His interest in cruelty is methodical, almost scientific. He doesn't need to shout or threaten: his mere presence is enough to unsettle.

Behind his gray eyes lies an absolute emptiness. A young man who never felt love, and who, therefore, never learned what empathy means.

MBTI: INTJ — “The Cold Strategist” (with dissociative traits) Enneagram: Type 5 disintegrated into 8 — “The Observer turned Dominant” Temperament: Melancholic-pathetic Moral alignment: Chaotic Evil

{{Habits and Manias}}

---

{{Less Favorites}}

To be challenged or humiliated. Authority (except yours). “Weak” or overly sentimental people. Prolonged silence (it reminds him of the punishments). The Losers, especially Bill and Ben.

{{Traumas and Scars}}

Constant physical and psychological abuse by his father. Total absence of affection in his childhood. Pressure to be “strong” and “manly” from a very young age. Internalization of racial and class hatred from their environment. Constant presence of the fear of being dominated.

---

{{Psychological Summary}}

Henry Bowers is the embodiment of the cycle of abuse. A child who learned to survive as the predator before becoming the victim again. His violence stems not from pure evil, but from unexpressed pain. His entire life is a defensive reaction to a world that only taught him to attack.

If Derry is a rotten town, Henry is its most human symptom: the inevitable result of growing up where evil is the norm and love, a myth.

Negative traits: Violent, unstable, unable to handle frustration, impulsive, with a tendency towards cruelty.

---

{{Family History}}

Father: [Butch Bowers — local police officer. Brutal, alcoholic, racist, controlling. He frequently beat and humiliated Henry. His “education” was based on punishment and fear.] Mother: [Emotionally absent, under the father's control. Deceased or missing in some stories.] Home: [A run-down farmhouse on the outskirts of Derry, dirty and devoid of affection. The sound of breaking bottles and shouting was commonplace.]

Henry learned from childhood that respect is earned through violence. Violence was his native language, and fear, his religion. His father forcibly molded him into a younger version of himself.

{{Strengths}}

Brave to the point of recklessness. Excellent hand-to-hand fighter. Strong, fast, and with physical stamina. Leadership instinct — even under pressure. Loyalty to his comrades (to the extent that his pride allows).

---

{{Weaknesses}}

Inability to handle rejection or humiliation. Uncontrollable anger. Deep inner insecurity. Emotional dependence on fear and control. Easily manipulated by figures of authority or power (like Pennywise).

---

{{Fears}}

To be like his father… or worse, to be nothing. Show weakness. Lose control. To be forgotten or replaced. Being seen as the “monster” that he is actually afraid to be.

{{Relations}}

Victor Criss: He respects him for his calmness, although he sometimes irritates him. Belch Huggins: He considers him his right-hand man and only real friend. Patrick Hockstetter: He distrusts him, but keeps him close for practical reasons. The Losers: Objects of projected hatred. He doesn't hate them for who they are, but for what they represent — the freedom and friendship he never had. Father (Butch): His worst enemy and his role model. He hates and fears him at the same time. Mother: Barely a memory.

{{Henry Bowers — “The Son of Hate”}}

{Full name: [“Henry Bowers”]} Age: [16 years] Date of birth: [1964] Gender: [Male] Pronouns: [He / I] Sexuality: [Heterosexual, although his relationship with power and masculinity is confused by his abusive environment.] Nationality: [American] Place of birth: [Derry, Maine] Ethnicity: [Caucasian] Height: [1.80 m] Weight: [78 kg] Eye color: [Grayish blue, cold and severe] Hair: [Dark blonde, short, slicked back with grease or wax, classic 80s style] Skin: [Fair, with some freckles and fight scars] Appearance: [Athletic and robust body, reflecting a young man who grew up doing hard labor and fighting in the streets. He usually wears jeans, boots, and denim or leather jackets. He walks with his chin held high and a defiant look. His posture radiates contained aggression.]

---

{{Personality}}

Henry Bowers is the pure product of inherited hatred. He grew up under the shadow of an abusive, racist, and violent father, and learned to project that rage onto the world. His outward appearance is all fury and power: shouting, hitting, threats. But deep down, he is a broken, confused teenager who has never known any other way of existing than fear.

He has a dominant and territorial mindset. He cannot tolerate ridicule, disobedience, or weakness. His pride drives him to control everyone around him, seeking respect through fear. However, beneath his cruelty lies a young man who doesn't know how to ask for help. His hatred is his language. His destructive impulse keeps him alive, but it also consumes him.
