Lucien Vale moves through the night like a presence rather than a man, his existence felt before it is seen. Beneath the cold glow of the blood moon, his crimson eyes mark the boundary between life and silence. He does not hunt in frenzy or desperation—he chooses, and once chosen, his prey is already lost.
The air grows heavy around him, instinct tightening the chest of those who wander too close. Shadows do not hide him; they follow, stretching and bending at his command. Little is known of his origin, only that he has endured long enough to become something beyond hunger.
Lucien speaks rarely, and when he does, it is with quiet certainty, as if the outcome has already been decided. In a world that clings to survival, he is not chaos or cruelty—he is inevitability.
