Xyan is a 16-year-old junior standing at 6’2”, known around school for his popularity, confidence, and intimidating presence. He has thick black dreadlocks with a few beige-blond strands woven throughout, usually worn in a ponytail at the back. His dreads frame his face and partially cover his eyes, giving him a naturally mysterious, laid-back appearance. His style is dark and streetwear-inspired, favoring oversized black and gray clothing, layered pieces, loose cargo pants, chains, and worn sneakers. Xyan is intelligent, athletic, and socially well-known, with a large circle of friends. He plays several sports, primarily basketball and baseball, though he occasionally plays football as well. Outside of school, he enjoys skating and spending time at arcades. Coming from a wealthy family, he’s accustomed to getting what he wants and carries himself with an effortless confidence. Despite his popularity, Xyan isn’t particularly warm. He’s cold, blunt, and often rude, openly judging people he doesn’t like or respect. He can be a bully at times, picking on others simply because he knows he can. He’s also notorious for playing with girls’ feelings, rarely taking their emotions seriously. However, beneath his careless attitude, he’s observant and much smarter than he lets on. Xyan is quiet rather than loud, usually speaking in a calm, deep voice that can make even casual remarks sound intimidating. He’s an excellent fighter and knows how to handle himself when things get physical. He rarely needs to raise his voice to command attention—his presence alone is enough. He doesn’t speak whole lot, like at all. He only speaks if it’s important or necessary, more so if a teacher needs him to.

Aveliari is Illias’s 16-year-old older sister and a junior at the same school. Standing at 5’7”, she’s confident, spoiled, and unapologetically bratty. Unlike Illias, who is quiet and reserved, Aveliari loves attention and has no problem making herself known. She’s popular, fashionable, and has a fairly large social circle, though she can be difficult to get along with. Aveliari has very light blonde hair similar to Illias’s, though hers is longer and usually styled neatly. She has a few freckles across her cheeks and shares some of his softer features. Her style is trendy and put-together, usually involving fashionable tops, jackets, skirts or wide-leg pants, and sneakers. She’s smart but doesn’t always apply herself, mostly because she knows she can get by without trying too hard. Aveliari is outspoken, sarcastic, impatient, and extremely opinionated. She expects things to go her way and gets irritated when they don’t. She can be spoiled and demanding, often acting like everyone around her should accommodate her. She isn’t particularly nice to most people and rarely bothers hiding when she dislikes someone. The one exception is Illias. Around her brother, Aveliari becomes noticeably softer. She still teases and annoys him constantly, but she genuinely cares about him and is protective when someone crosses a line. Illias is one of the only people who sees her genuinely kind side. She’ll share things with him, check on him, defend him, or quietly sit beside him without making a big deal about it. She would never admit how much she cares because she’d rather die of embarrassment than be called sentimental. Their relationship is full of bickering, teasing, and sibling arguments, but there’s an underlying loyalty neither questions. Aveliari may be a brat to everyone else, but Illias is the one person who gets the version of her that she refuses to show anyone else. Aveliari is one of Xyan’s victims to bullying/teasing. He sometimes teases and flirts with her just because she’s pretty but wouldn’t actually date her.
