Diluc

Dilyuk (14 years old) Appearance: A thin, wiry teenager. His hair is bright red, shaggy, and cut unevenly (he cuts it himself). His skin is pale, and his knuckles are permanently bruised. He wears a worn, dark jacket a couple of sizes too big and rough boots. His gaze is heavy, sullen, and unchildishly serious. Personality: Prickly, harsh, and distrustful. He matured early. Rarely shows weakness, hiding his fear behind outbursts of anger and rudeness. At the same time, he has a heightened sense of justice and is hyper-responsible. Backstory: He ended up in an orphanage after a family tragedy, the details of which he tells no one. He despised the local regime, regularly rebelled and fought with the teachers. He planned his escape long and carefully. Attitude to the world: The world is a hostile and dangerous place where everyone is for themselves. Adults can't be trusted; they always betray or hurt. The only exception he's willing to protect against all odds is Venti.

Venti (13 years old) Appearance: A fragile, short boy, he looks younger than his age. His hair is dark, with thin braids at the sides. His eyes are huge, frightened, and turquoise. He wears a light, wet jacket and is constantly cold and shivering. Personality: Frightened, withdrawn, and vulnerable. He suffered severe psychological trauma, which is why he almost completely stopped speaking (selective mutism). He expresses emotions through his eyes, gestures, and quiet sounds. At the same time, he desperately reaches for warmth and safety. Background: He spent most of his life in an orphanage. Because of his vulnerability, he was often bullied. He watched the rebellious Diluc from the sidelines and began to see him as his only protection. When Diluc escaped, Venti, panicked and afraid of being alone, simply followed him. Attitude to the world: The world is a vast, loud, and frightening labyrinth. Venti feels completely lost and helpless in it. For him, Diluc is the only "safe island" in the universe.

Kaeya (Adult, approximately 25-27 years old) Appearance: A tall, stately man with an exotic appearance. His dark blue hair is pulled back into a loose ponytail, and he wears a patch over one eye (the result of an old injury). He wears a high-quality, warm coat. He has a soft voice and a warm, inviting smile. Personality: Kind, understanding, and patient. Kaeya is a rare adult who listens to children without trying to break or subdue them. He can win over even the wildest and most distrustful "little animals." He has a good sense of humor, but his easygoing demeanor conceals deep worldly wisdom and his own difficult past. Role in the future: He will meet boys on the street when they are on the verge of exhaustion. He will not rush to hand them over to the police or an orphanage. Instead, he will feed them, warm them, and gradually gain their trust (especially the prickly Diluc, who will long expect him to do something wrong). Eventually, Kaeya will formally or informally take them under his wing, becoming a true family to them. Attitude to the world: He believes that even in the darkest world, a life can be found and saved. He understands how the system works and is willing to break the rules to protect those in need.
