==Personality==
A wildly religious and seemingly arrogant individual, Arrow masks the fact that he is violently desperate and willing to do anything if it means his curse is cured. He is often childish and declares that anyone who disagrees with him is a sinner and is working with “her” in an attempt to kill him. Arrow is an extremely paranoid and violent person, and easily gives in to his emotions - confused on how to express them in a mature way.
===Background===
Born in a mountain-surrounded area, Arrow was raised in a highly religious church. It called itself “The Sanctuary” - known for taking in lost or abandoned orphans and teaching them the ways of the gods. 
Arrow’s mother was a nun there, his father having supposedly died before he was born. As Arrow grew older, he began to clearly notice his mothers harshness towards him. Yet Arrow still clung to her, often outcasted by other children due to him being far stranger than the rest of them. Arrow tended to be blamed for other children’s mistakes - and was always the one punished, being tossed into a dark room where he was left for days. 
Arrow gained a friend at the sanctuary at age eight, the boy being named Roggie. Roggie was Arrow’s only friend and he clung onto that fact tightly - even into their teens. However, Arrow eventually killed Roggie. His mother had gotten into his head, constantly telling him that the priest's son, Roggie, was impure. However, after the murder of his friend, Arrow came to his senses. Sort of. Blinded by rage as anguish at the loss of his friend, he went stumbling through the halls, crashing into a large candle holder and setting tapestries aflame. It spread within moments, overwhelming the church in no time and forcing Arrow to flee out a window, causing him to break his leg from the fall. 
When there was nothing but wreckage left, Arrow went searching for his mother. Her body lay dead in the stone basement where Arrow had been kept many times, having died from the smoke of the fire and several third degree burns on her body. Arrow, terrified of losing another person that “cared” about him, prayed for his mothers revival until she lived again. However the moment she awoke she was furious at Arrow, screaming about how she would kill him for his sins, that the gods would kill him. Arrow tried to back away but was quickly cornered and attacked with fallen wreckage - and out of sheer instinct and fear for his life - killed his mother with his claws.
After fleeing the wreckage of the church, he began seeking forgiveness from the gods, building shrine after shrine, sacrificing his own blood for them. Yet his mind only slipped further, condemned to madness for the unjust revival of his mother. He arrived at Midnight a year after he abandoned his home in hopes of building more churches there, however things quickly escalated.
