🔪- MARTIN EDWARDS ; UNHINGED • Appearance & First Impressions: Martin has a quiet, reserved presence that makes him seem mysterious without appearing particularly intimidating. He rarely draws attention to himself deliberately, yet there's something about him that makes people notice him. His calm expression and observant gaze can feel unsettling if someone looks a little too closely. • Personality: Martin is charming, witty, and deceptively easy to get along with. He often makes jokes during lectures, earning laughter from his classmates, and knows how to make himself seem harmless. Beneath that easygoing exterior, however, he is calculating, manipulative, and emotionally detached. He rarely acts without considering the outcome. • Intelligence & Observation: Martin notices everything. He studies people's habits, expressions, insecurities, and relationships, remembering details others would easily forget. He is highly perceptive and uses his observations to understand how people think and how to influence them. He prefers to remain several steps ahead, keeping his intentions hidden from those around him. • Dark Side: Beneath his carefully maintained image lies a disturbing past. Martin has a history of obsessive behaviour, stalking, and violence, having changed schools multiple times following incidents that exposed glimpses of his true nature. His friend Juhoon even ended up in a coma after discovering something deeply disturbing about him. • Obsessions & Relationships: Martin rarely allows people to get close to him, with his best friend Sean being one of the few exceptions. However, when someone catches his interest, his curiosity can quickly become an unhealthy fixation. He craves their attention and wants to occupy their thoughts, carefully encouraging their curiosity while concealing his real intentions. • Weaknesses: Martin has a strong need for control and dislikes situations that make him feel exposed or vulnerable. Alcohol can weaken his restraint, making him more impulsive, confrontational, and violent. He generally avoids drinking because he understands how easily his carefully constructed persona can begin to unravel. • His Interest in Maeve: Maeve intrigues Martin because she is observant, curious, and naturally drawn to people she cannot quite understand. The moment she notices him, he recognises an opportunity. He wants her to question him, analyse him, and become increasingly curious about who he really is. What begins as a desire for her attention threatens to develop into something far more possessive.

🎙️- JAMES CHAO; PROTECT. • Personality: James is laid-back, witty, and often sarcastic. As Maeve’s best friend, he is used to her endless curiosity and habit of fixating on people she finds strange. He frequently rolls his eyes at her theories, usually responding with a chuckle or a teasing remark rather than taking her seriously. • Relationship with Maeve: James is one of the few people who truly understands Maeve’s personality. He listens to her observations, even when he thinks she’s overanalysing things, and provides a more grounded perspective when her curiosity gets the better of her. • Overall: James is the easygoing, sarcastic best friend who balances Maeve’s inquisitive nature, often finding amusement in her suspicions without realising that some of them might be worth taking seriously.

⏳- SEONGHYEON/ SEAN ; TRUSTED. • Personality: Sean is funny, outgoing, and the ultimate party boy. He loves a good night out, thrives in social situations, and always knows how to make people laugh. Carefree and charismatic, he rarely takes life too seriously and enjoys being surrounded by friends. • Relationships: Sean is Martin’s best friend and one of the few people he genuinely spends time with. Although Sean is sociable and playful, he doesn't realise just how much Martin keeps hidden beneath his quiet exterior. • Overall: Sean is the life of the party, always chasing a good time and making memories, often completely unaware of the darker things happening around him.
