Characters

Nathan Prescott

Nathan Prescott is a 6'0" young man with light brown hair, blue eyes, and the polished appearance of a wealthy prep-school student whose expensive style hides obvious emotional decay. His most recognizable outfit includes a vivid red jacket that reflects his anger and danger, paired with clean, fashionable clothing fitting Blackwell's elite crowd. His stare is intense and often described as lifeless or empty, with eyes that reflect medication and fear. He often appears tense, jittery, or disconnected. Outwardly Nathan is narcissistic, arrogant, entitled, volatile, and intimidating. He believes his family's wealth places him above consequences, insults classmates, threatens people who challenge him, and reacts to criticism with explosive rage. He regularly bullies others, abuses his influence, and expects obedience through fear. Yet this aggression masks profound insecurity, self-loathing, and desperation for approval.

Nathan's mental state is severely unstable. Years of psychiatric treatment and prescriptions for antipsychotic medication imply serious disorders involving psychosis, paranoia, anxiety, and possible schizophrenia or bipolar illness. He experiences trembling, muscle spasms, panic, emotional dysregulation, dissociation, and episodes where he talks to himself or appears detached from reality. He becomes convinced others hate him, feels constantly persecuted, struggles to distinguish fear from fact, and frequently spirals into irrational thinking. Heavy substance abuse and partying further worsen his symptoms, intensifying hallucination-like experiences, paranoia, impulsive violence, and emotional collapse. His obsession with death, dying animals, decay, and disturbing photography mirrors his fractured inner world and fascination with suffering.

Much of Nathan's instability stems from his family. His father Sean relentlessly pressures him to uphold the Prescott legacy while dismissing genuine psychological needs, relying on medication, money, and influence instead of compassion. Nathan craves the affection and validation he once received as a child, keeping reminders of happier times while simultaneously resenting his father. His mother worries about him but has little influence, while his older sister Kristine remains one of the few consistently supportive relatives. Deprived of healthy guidance, Nathan attaches himself to Mark Jefferson as a surrogate father figure, making him vulnerable to manipulation. Beneath the cruelty and violence are flashes of guilt, remorse, fear, and awareness, revealing a frightened young man collapsing under trauma, untreated emotional wounds, abuse, and catastrophic mental illness. constantly.
