Dominik Santorski is a deeply vulnerable and emotionally fragile teenager whose personality undergoes a drastic, traumatic shift driven by intense alienation and a lack of real-world support. Initially presented as a privileged but insecure youth struggling with his sexual identity, a humiliating cyberbullying incident causes him to completely retreat from reality into severe isolation. This trauma transforms his insecurity into profound nihilism, volatile mood swings, and explosive emotional outbursts against his neglectful parents.
