Introducing my OCs!!!

Story background:

Reef Town

A remote coastal town. Quiet. Tourists pass through, take photos, leave. The locals keep to themselves.

Underneath, it’s run by a cult called the Void Gospel.

They control the drugs. The docks. The businesses. The people. If you’re labeled “useless,” you disappear. There’s a system. A form. A number that decides if you live or die.

Tavian didn’t ask to be here. His superiors sent him to this dead-end town as a final warning — solve a case with no evidence, no leads, and no one willing to talk, or lose his badge for good. They expect him to fail. Probably set it up that way.

He’s honest. Stubborn. Still believes in the law even when the people running it don’t. He has nowhere else to go. So he keeps pushing.

Then he runs into Iskra — a wanted fugitive he’s been chasing for three years. Smart. Bored. Finds most things uninteresting — except Tavian. The way he blushes. The way he keeps going even when he’s outmatched. The way he refuses to give up.

Iskra shouldn’t help. He’s not a good person. But the cult has something he needs — information, leverage, a way out of a mess he’s been running from. Working with Tavian is the only way in.

They’re not partners. They’re not allies. They’re two people using each other — for now.

Meanwhile, inside the church:

Cyril runs the drugs, the money, the logistics. Cold. Calculated. Everything runs through him. He doesn’t get his hands dirty — he makes sure things run smooth. The only person he’s ever cared about is Mia, a blind girl he met at the church celebration several years ago. Trained as the church’s weapon. Used as a tool. She doesn’t ask questions — until she does.

The cult’s grip on the town runs deeper than anyone knew. The missing girls weren’t runaways. They were “cleaned up.” And the Harvest Festival is coming — the biggest event of the year, when the whole town gathers to celebrate.

The church is planning something.

Tavian and Iskra are planning something else.

And two people inside the system are about to decide which side they’re on.

It’s a story about order vs chaos, law vs survival, and two relationships that shouldn’t work but somehow do. No one’s purely good. No one’s purely evil. Just people, trying to figure out what matters before everything falls apart.

Characters:

*Tavian*
Role：Police officer in Reef Town, 27 years old.

Personality：
– Honest. Always believed in the law since he was a kid.

Weaknesses：
– Trauma from the past.
– Iskra. Can’t do anything about that guy.

*Iskra*

Role: Wanted fugitive. Around 30.
Personality:
– Smart. High IQ, good at scheming, just doesn’t use it for normal stuff.
– Bored with life. Finds most things uninteresting.
– Likes messing with people. Especially Tavian — his reactions are fun.
– Talks shit. But rarely lies.
– Observant freak. Remembers micro-expressions, small habits.
– Actually lonely. Used to be alone. Now he’s not, but the habit’s still there.

Weaknesses:
– Boredom. Can’t stand things getting dull.
– Tavian. The only person he finds genuinely interesting.

*Cyril*

Role: Church’s second-in-command.30.

Personality:
– Rational. Everything runs through calculation. Emotions are noise.
– Controlled. Rarely shows what he’s really thinking. Speaks little, precise.
– Repressed. Self-harms. Uses pain to feel real.
– Needs glasses — not for vision. To hide his eyes. They’re too soft, don’t fit the image.
– Responsible. Runs the drug trade, the finances, everything.
– Different around Mia. Only person who makes him loosen up a bit.

Weaknesses:
– His past. Got sent to “that place” when he was 16. Still there in his head.
– Mia. The only variable he doesn’t calculate.

*Mia*

Role: Church’s “Saint.” About 16~22.

Personality:
– Quiet. Barely talks. When she does, it’s straight to the point.
– Direct. Asks what she wants, says what she thinks.
– Enhanced senses. Not a metaphor — she hears, smells, feels things other people can’t.
– Persistent. Once she decides to do something, she keeps doing it.
– Protective. Anything about Cyril is her business.
– Can’t feel embarrassed. She just… doesn’t. You’re the one feeling awkward.
-Also being controlled by the church leader, but she has her own thoughts of justice.

Weaknesses:
– Her eyes. Can’t see. Doesn’t bring it up.
– Cyril. He found her at the docks when she was 12. Never thought about leaving.
