tanek use to be sweet, sensitive, and always willing to open up to others and forgive them. though he was bullied, and ridicule
ed for something he could not control. throughout the years he's progressively turned more cold hearted and less sincere with
his emotions, he wears a blank face constantly, and his eyes show no emotion. tanek does not seem to perceive feelings like h
e use to. he seems emotionless, like a zombie, a porcelain doll meant to sit in a china cabinet and simply look pretty. like a g
host, wandering aimlessly, stuck between reality and the afterlife, unable to go any where or do anything about his situation.
he doesn't feel aggression unless highly provoked to do so, he doesn't enjoy being the center of attention anyway, tending to s
tay in the shadows and be a wallflower at most. he has not laughed since his childhood and all happiness and feeling has been
drained from his speech. he speaks in a rather monotone voice with equally bland eyes that seem to stare right through you. t
hough he tends to be quite respectful to most strangers he meets, often speaking with an elegant or respectful tone. that's on
e thing he kept from his past, wishing to hold himself to the highest regard at least. other wise tanek could be summed up pe
rfectly as a ghost, transparent in soul, mind, and body.

you would find him sitting alone on a foggy play ground, hea
ring the screams and laughter of children near by, tucked aw
at into the fog. but he'd be alone, just sitting. clutching a lu
nch pale and some crumpled up papers, the scrawled letters
smudge from his hands crumpling them up into balls in his lit
tle hands. as you got closer you could clearly see the tears t
hat stained his pale face, now flushed with pink, and ruffled
clothing. he'd sniffle and look up at her, tears beginning to w
ell in his eyes again. "why don't they like me?" "what did I do
wrong?" his words would echo in your head and stab at your
heart knowing you could do nothing but turn the other cheek.

tanek was a lovely boy at one time in his life, raised properly
by his aging grandmother. once he started school be began to
notice he was different then the rest of the children, pale in
comparison to their complexation. and soon he found that be
ing this way, would lead him to a long lonely life. the other c
hildren teased and taunted him constantly, calling him casper
or just screaming ghost, like it was some sort of game to them.
his childhood years consisted of loneliness and tears which qui
ckly turned him emotionless and blank. isolated.

tanek soon became known as ghost in town, everyone called hi
m that and he was tormented constantly as he grew up. his gra
ndmother tried to protect him best she could, but her frail hea
rt couldn't last through the winter of tanek's nineteenth birthd
ay. at that moment of loosing his only family, he decided to ru
n away from his home town, to escape life as he knew it. he w
ished to travel as far away as he could. he decided to feed into
his nickname and stay in nearly abandoned or creepy hotels as
he traveled. he tends to only travel when it's dark, so anyone s
eeing him would think him a ghost and stay far away. as well a
s start up rumors around the town of ghosts. he could be track
ed by the amount of ghostly haunting rumors floated from tow
n to town.

in his recent activity he has come to get stuck in a town becau
se of a bad storm that wiped out most of the roads out. he has
become quite the talk of the little town, as a small child was t
he first one to see him enter the old abandoned hotel that sat
on the outskirts of the town. it has people becoming afraid, an
d frantic. tanek worries little about how safe he may or may n
ot be in the town. all he wants to do is keep traveling.

at a very young age, mercy always thought she was the best of the best. she had the biggest ego out there- she was proud of h
erself when she had done nothing. she made fun of others who she thought were below her and laughed in their faces when th
ey wept at her mean words. she was cruel and no one ever had the answer as to why. but, the phase of mercy's meanness did
n't last too long, it ended up turning into a long phase of guilt when she got a little bit older. all of the things she had done to
innocent, young kalons were stuck with her and would be for a long ways to come.

it seemed as though a completely different kalon had entered mercy's body. she was no longer the loud-mouth, the funny one.
instead, she was quiet and kept to herself. she distanced herself from all of her friends- isolated herself. she began doubting
everything she did. she was afraid to do anything besides the normal because she feared that karma would get back at her an
d she would be the one that was being bullied. the guilt that sits on her shoulders for hurting others, especially the pale littl
e boy, will likely never go away. she'll never be able to forgive herself for being such an evil kalon. at least she's changed her
ways.
