Basics

Description

Arsene grew up in a rich family, with his mom being an art curator and his dad being a published author and journalist, but despite this still attended public school due to anxiety. He was a very shy person growing up, all throughout primary school and college. In college he met Leocadius, who took an interest in him despite his best attempts to appear uninteresting and unapproachable. Though they ended up being friends, eventually dating, all Leo wanted was to use and manipulate him. In an attempt to separate him from any type of support, Leo poisoned the ingredients for the sweets Arsene was planning to bake for his parents. He blamed himself for his parents' death, thinking he just didn't check them well enough or got the wrong ones. The manipulation and gaslighting continued for quite a bit until Arsene was practicing the magic Leo was teaching him. With his back turned, Leo impaled him through the heart with a sword, leaving him to die alone. After about a day Arsene was brought back as a revenant by a divine being, that of which is currently unknown to him, along with it's motives. While dealing with the realization of what happened, Arsene fell into an intense depressive episode, becoming an alcoholic. After about 2 months, the anger finally set in over what had happened, and Arsene set out to get revenge. During his time trying to track Leo he accidentally got turned by a vampire, needing to now deal with the consequences of that as well. While making his way through Waterdeep on a possible lead, he met a few people who would trust as friends, and one he would love named Andrei, who he became very close to. Andrei seemed to help Arsene keep a good grasp on his own humanity and emotions, calming him down quite a lot and helping him learn better coping mechanisms. After losing track in Waterdeep, he and Andrei built and moved into a house together until he received a letter with a strong lead towards Leo. Arsene informed Andrei and left to track him down, hopefully getting the revenge he deserves.
