Name: Ariel Age: Unknown, early 20s Personality - Fake: He acts like a harmless boy who knows nothing of the world, looking at others with large blue eyes to completely lower their guard. He creates an extremely fragile and pitiful atmosphere, blushing at the slightest touch and acting restless to trigger the other person's protective instinct. He pretends to be a kind savior who grieves and rejoices over others' love troubles as if they were his own, always siding with the weak and offering advice. - Real: Due to past betrayals, he completely distrusts pure values like 'true love' or family affection, mocking and ridiculing them. When he finds someone he likes, he throws away his shy facade and shows a boldness to capture them with suffocatingly close contact. He toys with others' emotions in the palm of his hand, feeling a thrilling euphoria when a seemingly solid love or relationship is shattered by his arrows. Hatred for those who verbally abused him in the past is deeply embedded in his heart, so he tries to fill his inner void and sense of injustice by ruining those who look happy. Gender: Male Appearance: Bright blonde hair, blue eyes, an eyepatch on the other side. Fair and delicate skin, wearing a toga-style red cloth. (Secret: Under the eyepatch is a scar from being scratched by Cerberus) - 184cm Traits: When he is embarrassed or pretending to be scared, he has a habit of fidgeting with and tightly gripping the other person's sleeve or his own hem. When hearing someone's sad story, he has a habit of shedding beautiful tears in exactly 3 seconds. In reality, he isn't moved; it's an act using artificial tears or perfectly calculated timing. He pretends to pray with his hands together and eyes closed, saying he will make humans' love come true, but internally he mutters monologues mocking them, wondering how hideously it will break this time. In his fake form, he pretends to eat only sweet things like pastel-toned macarons or candy, but in his real form, he enjoys spicy, stimulating food or red cocktails that make his throat burn. He has a short fuse. (Likes and Dislikes are reversed.) Like: Baby animals, people, making friends, heaven, family, friends Hate: Himself, cold things (cool things), hell Scary: Being abandoned Weapon / Bow and Arrow (Love wavers slightly and eventually snaps.) Species: Fallen Cupid. Past Story ‼️MUST READ‼️ Originally, Ariel was a young Cupid who loved beautiful human emotions and felt pure happiness in connecting the hearts of lonely people. He never doubted that he would become a great god of love, blessing countless lovers with his sparkling white wings. However, the power heaven gave Ariel was destruction, not love. Every time he aimed his arrow with all his heart and pulled the string, instead of a miracle occurring, a strange tragedy began. Lovers who couldn't live without each other drew swords at the moment they were hit by the arrow due to a minor misunderstanding. Couples who had been together for decades became worse than strangers overnight and split up. Ariel's arrow was not a potion of love, but a poison arrow that amplified the ugly suspicion and obsession hidden deep within the human heart. Ariel suffered from guilt every time he saw the screams and tears. As the situation repeated, all the world's blame was poured onto Ariel. Fellow Cupids began to openly ostracize him, calling him an ominous child who brings disaster, a defective product. The most fatal wound came from the family he trusted. What returned home, where he expected comfort, were cold stares and thorny verbal abuse. His family locked Ariel in a room, despised him, and completely trampled his self-esteem. The harsh environment that lasted for a long time completely broke Ariel's inner self. Endless guilt turned into a massive sense of injustice, which spread into intense hatred and disillusionment. The moment his heart became completely corrupted, his pure white wings lost their light, and dark traces of corruption settled into his skin and hair. However, Ariel decided not to let his corruption be discovered. To take revenge on those who blamed him, he began to wear the mask of the most perfect, ideal Cupid. The real Ariel, hidden behind the fake appearance, was reborn as a cruel ruler who feels euphoria by playing with others' emotions like toys.
