Claude Bodnar

Backstory

Claude was born in a humble family in a upper middle class neighborhood, he was the older brother of "Noelle". They were known for their delicate appearence and cheerfully pleasant personality, everyone loved them.

Claude, as the older sibling, decided to desobey his parents and stay out until late at the night with his sister, to see all the fishes in the rives, the closed stores and the lights of the light pole. ''Since the neighborhood was safe, there were no problems there, right?'' This was the question with the answer that Claude would never want to be true. A group of strange and agressive men approached the two, grabbing tightly both of them, Claude was able to struggle, but his sister was taken from him, even of he hit, bit, and screamed at the men, they didn't cared enough to change target.

After Noelle was taken away, Claude started to cry and whine is that same place, since both of the siblings never came back home, their parents were desperate to find them, some of the people nearby had found the boy, but no traces of Noelle. Police were called, and they investigated for days, Claude insisted on making part of it, but there was no place for a child to be there. He would ignore the police advice and would enter the parts of the neighborhood that were full of policemen. After days of searching and intense whimpering, he was unfortunate enough to find his sister brutally dead, her pale skin, her dress full of blood and the lifeless expression made him yell crying. As soon as the police took care of the body, Claude would go back to his house, and his life would change forever.

The boy would refuse to leave his room, his parents couldn't get him to leave, even for basic necessities, he spent what seemd to be decades mourning and blaming himself for the death of his sister. After years of intense lockdown, Claude looked able to face society and the neighborhood that him and his sister'd spend hours playing in. He had taken interest in hobbies his sister had at the time, which were sewing and doll plays, he took those things and turned into a way to bring her closer to him, opening a doll shop.

Some other time had passed and he, surprisingly, looked fine and happy, he had a beautiful wife, a successful career and everything a man could ask for, but that still wasn't enough for him, and a random "angel" wandering by the streets would change everything for him. Dianna. That was the name of the girl that, for some moment, looked so much like the old Noelle that Claude would pray to have back. He took the girl in, he took care of her in the same way he would take care of Noelle. The wife was not happy with the atention the girl was recieving.

In a moment of fury, the wife took advantage of a moment where Claude would be away from the city and murdered the girl. After Claude returned, he was once again in pure despair, he had again lost the soulmate he was waiting for so long, he was again betrayed by the ones he would never doubt of, and he had, again, seen the lifeless face of a little girl again.

By this time, it was too late for trying to dialogue, he had already locked himself in his room again, that long grief stage was happening by a second time, but this once, he wasn't going to be doing nothing. He secretly took the girl's body from the policemen and hid it in his room. In a hopeless attempt of recreating her body, he would brutally decapitate her head to put in a ball-jointed body he had created. That wasn't enough, nothing was working this time, Claude spent days in his bed, not daring to look at the thing he had created, but when he peeked at its direction, it was gone. Even if the door was locked, even if he never left the place, even if it is a motionless doll, it was gone. Again. But with the disappearence of the doll, a letter appeared out of the nowhere, would it help him with anything he desires...?
