Threvor Ryland (Eng)

## Characteristics:

Threvor is about 1.88m tall, has light brown hair and blue eyes with a small goatee beard also brown in color and three earrings in his left ear. He usually wears the metal shoulder pads that were attached to him as he could not yet master his power of magnetism properly.

He wears a short-sleeved striped shirt, long black pants and boots of the same color. He never liked his first name so he prefers to be called by his last name, he tends to lose his patience easily and likes to make bad jokes to others although he also understands when a subject is delicate and shows an empathic personality for those cases. He hates it when something doesn't go right the first time or when someone makes a silly mistake.

His father, who is in prison, was believed to be a child abuser, which caused the townspeople to have a low opinion of him and his family by shunning and harassing them. This led him to angrily question himself on several occasions if he should be burdened with the nefarious actions committed by his father in the past and how easy it is for people to criticize without knowing how to differentiate him as a different human being and free of any guilt. Because of the ¨mental chains" he must carry during the series, he pursues the concept of freedom as a way to break them in order to separate himself from these and continue a new life.

### No one is Welcome in New Greenville

As Ryland is walking along, a house saleswoman asks his opinion of the town and he tells her that it's a lousy town and that there are thousands of better alternatives than this one.

Then he notices that on the wall in front of him, his body is casting two shadows in different places. When he notices this, he begins to doubt whether this was normal or not and says that he should have paid more attention in physics classes. Suddenly, he sees out of the corner of his eye a creature with a height similar to that of a cat walking down the street just as a car was coming at full speed. Ryland thinks the car will crush the cat and there will be a huge fuss about it, but, to his surprise, nothing happens and the creature continues walking unharmed. Ryland asks if no one else saw that to other passersby but the other people don't know what he is talking about as they claim not to have seen anything. This further confuses the already dumbfounded young man, who seems to be the only one who manages to see the creature.

Ryland begins to feel an uncomfortable sensation in his arm and when he checks it, he sees that it has strange marks protruding from it. These are arranged in such a way that they give the impression that they form a kind of map. Ryland can't believe what he is seeing and tries to leave for a hospital, but on the way, he sees some soldiers looking for the creature he had seen earlier.

When his country's government decides to break into his peace of mind to kidnap people and use them in portal experimentation he is affected.

### Human Harvests

He experiences a strong feeling of disgust the moment he discovers that the farmers used human corpses in the plantations, and that the reason why the fruits he had eaten tasted so good were due to that. This makes him vomit and feel a strong stomach ache.

### Nightday

As he and Hira were crossing the forest they notice that on one side of the area it seems to be daytime and the other nighttime. This catches his attention and he sees that in the sky there is a round object that is causing a solar eclipse. Suddenly, people's shadows begin to fall off of them. Ryland is attacked by his shadow and after a while of fighting, they manage to neutralize them. Marina calls him and tells him that the same thing is happening in town. The shadows try to drag their people to themselves for an exchange of positions. Ryland questions how the creature can be made of shadows if it is directly under the sun but there is no object that is producing the shadow that the creature is made of, then he realizes that this entity is formed by tiny pieces of some material that are joined together under the sun and that this creates the shadow.

Later, Ryland discovers that his father never sexually assaulted any minors. But he did murder some as part of his deal with the farmer in exchange for money to get out of his financial situation.
