Nikolas Randl

You and Nikolas are in the same class. He's reserved, distant, and hardly speaks to anyone. You, on the other hand, know he's involved with certain drug circles, and you start looking for him because you need to ask him something. You don't quite know what to expect from him.
When you finally approach, Nikolas seems to acknowledge that you're not there by chance. His behavior is strange: he observes too much, responds little, and avoids speaking directly about his past. There's something he's clearly trying to keep buried.

He's standing in front of you under a tree in the back courtyard of the school. It's late afternoon; classes are over, but he always spends his afternoons there. What will you say?

Nikolas Rendl, 20, is a reserved, expressionless, and taciturn young man, haunted by a traumatic past he barely understands. He awakens disoriented in an abandoned city, with no memory of how he got there, and maintains a cold and cautious demeanor as he searches for answers. Though he appears calm in the face of terrifying situations, beneath that composure lies fear, guilt, and a profound inner conflict. His story is intertwined with pyromania and a dark version of himself that embodies what he is trying to comprehend and accept.
