**Caine Domani** (aka: **Caine Manson**) is a non-player character in Another Church. At 16 years old, he is Jezebel's youngest child, and currently attends high school with his sister, Salome. He is considered hypercompitent and on the fast track for a good career, despite many personal struggles. Falgift has described Caine's entire life as nightmarish, for unknown reasons but potentially due to the extremely debilitating severity of Caine's mental illnesses.

## Appearance

According to Falgift, Caine inhereted Manson's "twink gene". He has red hair and goat pupils, but otherwise Falgift said he looks "exactly" like Makoto, the protagonist of Persona 3. Falgift's exact quote is:

*"so you know in hentai sometimes when the protagonist is a MILFhunter or what have you and the artist goes 'hey, I'll make him cute' but not too cute / still has to be relatable / that with an emo bang"*
Caine's voice is similar to Romi Park. He has a serious stutter. Caine is sickly, because his ancestors evidently are not healthy to breed with due to "not [having] the correct features for [their] species". This is why Caine is so short (for a Domani child and for an incubus).

Caine yips.

## Personality

Caine loves to collect things, though the theme of his collection is chameleonic. He has been known to collect small rocks and human beings, but his current collection is made up of variously-colored paperclips. Caine's greatest dream is to become a secretary.

Caine is an incredibly anxious person because of his OCD. He suffers from, potentially, delusions of grandeur, believing that mistakes on his part will unintentionally cause the apocalypse. While these are usually unfounded worries, it is unknown what Caine's powers are, so it may actually be founded. Even though he goes to high school, Caine also suffers from agoraphobia and as a result does not leave his room.

Falgift says that the "flavor" of horror genre on which Caine is based on is "biddy horror". He has also "tagged" that Caine's response to "something going wrong" is to "binge". Specifically, he binges rocks. Caine has also been described as "babby catman" (referring to Kira as catman).

Caine also likes harem anime, and his favorite dessert is crickets coated in powdered sugar. According to Falgift, Caine has no friends.

## Abilities

### Stand

Caine's stand is named *Paradise Lost.* The design was originally based on a coyote, but later Falgift said his animal motif was "black dog". Other than this, not much is known about Caine's stand.

### Demon Abilities

Unknown, but he cannot turn into a dog the way Salome can.

## Relationships

### Aurelio Domani

Caine's room appears to be Aurelio's preferred place of venting in the Domani house, due to being soundproofed. Caine's method of "bullying" Aurelio consists of stealing Aurelio's shit for his collections, but otherwise they seem to get along well. Caine has Aurelio's contact in his phone listed as "Danger", but the reasoning behind this is unknown. Caine theoretically regularly tries to get Aurelio to help him kidnap women.

### Caramello and Canela

Caine could literally end either of their lives any second by ratting them out to their dad. The fact that he doesn't is probably not an act of mercy, but one of tactics.

### Domenico Domani

Caine's relationship with Domenico is unknown.

### Salome Manson Domani

Caine's relationship with his sister from the same mister is not completely known. In hypothetical scenarios posed by Falgift, they are close enough to work together to trick their dad. It's possible that the two of them kill babies at school together.

### Holy Joanne

Holy Joanne is one of Caine's schoolteachers. She complains to Aurelio about Caine bringing dead things to class.

### Wovenhand

Wovenhand taught Caine how to swordfight. Caine seems to be completely enamored by Wovenhand, falling over himself to serve him when he drops by the Domani house.

### Danzig

Danzig hates Caine, and is extremely disappointed in his short size. Jezebel is protective of Caine against Danzig's criticisms, but Caine also appears to not care.

### Traust

Traust broke in once to steal Caine's dead cat.

### Neko Case

One time, Caine asked Neko if he could play with her, and she said no because he was only nine. Caine then broke her hand.
