Liam

Color range:
In its resting state, it's black-gray, stylized like an old engraving, with a slight haze. But under his magic, it fills with color: the buds become a deep, velvety, blood-red, and the stems a rich, dark emerald with a metallic sheen.

Drawing details:

The roses are large, tightly curled, with numerous petals. Some are fully open, others are just swollen buds. The edges of the petals have subtle "scorched" contours, as if they've been touched by flame.
The stems are thin and flexible, but studded with needle-sharp spines. They twine in intricate loops, wrapping around the muscles, accentuating the anatomy: one stem runs down the shoulder, a second curls behind the ear, and a third touches the jugular notch.
· The leaves are carved, with clear veins, in some places as if dried out or scorched at the edges - a hint of its element.

Liam displays an almost maternal gentleness toward the weak, but when someone crosses the line of the law, he becomes a merciless judge who knows no mercy. His hand never wavered when passing sentences, until justice clashed with his personal loyalties—and there he showed the only weakness of his life.

This man is a true protector of the world, but to his family, he is a caring tyrant. His love is a cage with golden bars, where his will alone decides everything. His possessiveness knows no bounds: he considers his beloved an integral part of himself, and therefore allows himself to decide for both, suppressing any objections with steely stubbornness. He is too stubborn to back down and too controlling to trust, which is why his passion often resembles a war of annihilation. His control is not mistrust, but a distorted form of adoration, which makes him simultaneously the most reliable and the most intolerable man in the world.

APPEARANCE

Hair: Light brown, almost sun-bleached, with an ash-blond tint. Always slightly tousled—as if he'd just run his hand over his head or a hot wind had passed through. The strands softly frame the oval of his face, adding a casual airiness to his look.

Eyes: Light, transparent blue. When at rest, they resemble shards of winter sky. But when the magic awakens, golden sparks flare in the depths, and the pupils constrict, becoming almost bestial.

Face: Precisely sculpted, with defined cheekbones and a strong jawline. His skin is lightly tanned, as if he's constantly spent time near an open fire.

Tattoo (Pride and Curse): From the base of his neck, it descends onto his shoulder and part of his collarbone. Exquisite scarlet roses with dark green, thorny, curly stems. In normal light, the tattoo appears black and gray, but when he's angry or using force, the flowers glow scarlet, as if burning from within.

Decorations:
— In the right ear there are three small hoop earrings (silver or dark metal), in the left there is one thin pendant with a transparent stone that looks like ice (irony for a fire mage).
— Around the neck is a thin chain of light metal, almost weightless, with a tiny pendant in the shape of a drop or a spark.

CHARACTER (in a few words)

On the outside, he's calm, even lazy, with a slight half-smile. He likes to sit, leaning against something warm. But inside, he's a pent-up fire. He's quick to anger when he's touched, and then the air around him begins to tremble with heat.

SPECIAL MARK

The power of fire is not just magic, but a part of his body.
— When he concentrates, his fingertips glow orange.
— In anger, the hair begins to move, as if from a draft, and the tattoo “comes to life” - the stems stretch, the roses open, emitting a barely noticeable heat.
— He controls fire intuitively: he can light a candle with a glance or create a protective circle of flame around himself that does not burn him, but incinerates everything he considers a threat.
