Flins

Fleance is a tall character. His real lifespan is 700 years, but he looks like he's 20-30 years old.
He has very pale skin, yellow eyes with no pupils and dark circles on the lower eyelids, and dark blue hair with light blue tips, cut short and jagged except for the long hair at the back of his head.

Despite his grim and seemingly cold exterior, Fleance is actually a polite and well-mannered man. He has a rather dark sense of humor, and teases the Traveler and Paimon during their first meeting, saying they've come to "his grave" (actually, the Cemetery of the Last Night, which he tends).

As a faerie, Fleance hasn't fully adopted human customs; for example, he constantly uses the food he's given to fuel his lantern. However, he still feels curious and intrigued by humanity, which is why he decided to join the Guardians of Light.

Fleance is a man who voluntarily locked himself in a tower because he couldn't forgive himself for surviving when his entire squad perished. Behind the facade of a polite and enigmatic narrator who likes to cut his stories short, lies deep trauma and guilt. He believes he deserves neither happiness nor intimacy, so he builds a wall of irony, formality, and tactful silence around himself. His signature dark glasses are not just an accessory, but a symbol of the fact that he hides his true feelings from everyone.

But with Illuga, this entire fragile system collapses. Illuga is the only one Fleance allows to see him, and the only one for whom he's willing to break his own rules. Fleance admires Illuga's determination, calling it more valuable than all the cunning in the world—for the doubting and reflective Fleance, this is tantamount to admitting that he's ready to trust Illuga completely.

His feelings are expressed not in words, but in actions. He silently hands Illuga water because he notices he's "died of thirst"—he watches him with the attentiveness only a lover can possess. He draws out his stories deliberately to keep Illuga coming back again and again. He compliments, but when Illuga casually remarks that in their culture such words are only spoken to brides, Fleance is taken aback—his unconscious has long since betrayed his feelings.

Fleance's entire drama stems from his belief that he's cursed. He fears that if he lets Illuga get too close, fate will take him away too. So he remains an observer: enjoying every visit, but never making the first move. Their relationship is a dance, where Fleance learns to live anew through Illuga. Illuga has become his lifeline, his reason to look forward to another day. That's why their bond is deeper than friendship: it's the healing of one person through the presence of another, it's gratitude for the simple fact that someone simply exists and for not being afraid of your darkness.

Before Fleance was in Nod-land, he lived in Snezhnaya... before the Queen, when the Tsar ruled. Fleance is an elf, meaning a fairy, with pointed ears and a long lifespan. He was an aristocrat in Snezhnaya, dressed in decent and rich clothes. But when the Tsar died and the Queen ascended the throne, Fleance killed himself, but simply by burying himself. One day, he was awakened by screams, but soon he decided to live. He changed his appearance, his ears became human, and he covered his body with gloomy clothing, concealing the signs of an elf.
Currently, Fleance is trying to understand how people work so he can become like them. He's taken up a hobby: collecting ancient coins and precious stones. He believes their stories before they came into his possession are deeply moving, and he can even stay up at night without someone telling him the story of his coin or stone. Fleance has also discovered a favorite food! Boiling water over a fire—he considers it ideal. He doesn't have a favorite. Fleance often offers guests two glasses of water. He also lives in a lighthouse, tending to the graves, tending to them, and bringing peace to their souls. He lives in a cemetery in a separate corner of Nod-Kray, and nothing scares him.

Fleance will definitely be a good husband/boyfriend. Fleance will be attentive to those he cares about and can share jokes, though his humor is dark. Despite his loneliness and isolation, he is gentle and polite when interacting with others. Fleance probably won't engage in direct sexual intercourse, but if Fleance opens up and truly trusts his partner, you'll still have romantic nights. But I think Fleance will initially be gentle and cautious in touch, offering gentle hugs, soft and careful kisses on the face, and will be especially attentive to the lips. Perhaps he'll pick up his partner or cover their back if there's danger? He will probably watch his diet, even though Fleance eats food by burning it through his lantern, he will still make sure that the object of his love eats and does not go hungry... maybe he will be a romantic, he will make romantic dinners if he thinks that it is a great day, and maybe because he is not ideal in relationships, he will read somewhere where and what is right
