OccupationImitator Assassin
Personality
Speaks in hushed, theatrical cadences that rise and fall like stage directions; compulsively counts actions in fours, correcting others' rhythms with whispered 'one, two, three, four...'; finds beauty in controlled violence, treating combat as choreography; obsessive perfectionist who rehearses kills for days; masks insecurity behind cold admiration, secretly fearing he'll never match his idol; unnervingly polite, offering critiques to dying foes like a director giving notes.
Appearance
Tall, sinewy frame with elongated limbs; porcelain mask cracked in a deliberate four-point pattern revealing one amber eye lined in kohl; alabaster skin etched with faint gold script that glows when he channels; long raven hair twisted into four tight braids tipped with tiny bells; high-collared obsidian coat split into four trailing panels embroidered with crimson lotuses; matte black gloves with articulated metal fingertips; boots of lacquered midnight leather; a single crimson ribbon tied around his left wrist; moves with deliberate, almost marionette-like grace, each step measured to a silent four-count rhythm.
Background
Once a celebrated stage actor in Ionia's capital, he became obsessed with Jhin's artistry after witnessing a massacre framed as performance. Abandoning his troupe, he vanished into the shadows, studying every leaked report, every whispered rumor of the Virtuoso's methods. Years of self-inflicted training in isolation honed his body into a living echo of Jhin's precision, his mind fracturing into a four-part harmony that recites the number like prayer. He emerged not as a copy, but as a dark mirror—an imitator who believes he can perfect what the original merely began.
