Elias

Elias is a supporting character in ***Uriah***. He was likely to have been locked in for arson, along with his twin brother, **Ellis**, and was the youngest of the group of prisoners that had planned to escape the prison island through the harbour. Before the plan could work out, Elias was brutally murdered by Bo causing the entire group to split up and go on their separate ways due to the shocking incident.

## Appearance

Elias is a young man in his early twenties, with an average build and short, ash-blonde hair - and has a prominent burn scar on the right side of his forehead. His large eyes were dark blue in colour, but his right eye is shown to be a light grey (suggesting blindness) while his right eyebrow is thinned-out as well - assumingly the result of his burns. They are likely to have included his scarred right arm too.

Elias was primarily seen in the Vildhamn prison uniform, with his sleeves rolled up tightly to his upper arms.

## Personality

From the handful of his brief appearances in the story, not much can be determined about Elias' personality. But despite being a prisoner, there has been mentions of him being quite a calm and nice person overall. Even his brother, **Ellis**, claimed that Elias' pyromania was involuntary and he never wanted to hurt others, instead just needed help. He was likely to have good relationships with most of the prisoners too, considering how his group was severely affected by his death - some even angered to the point of taking revenge. Elias was also shown to have an extremely cautious side to him in his interactions with Bo, being wary of his temperament and trying to avoid trouble as much as possible.

## Relationships

#### **Ellis**

*Ellis* is Elias' twin brother. Not many interactions have been shown between them, especially from Elias' side, but one can speculate he loved his brother dearly and was very caring about him. As a matter of fact, Elias was perhaps the most important person in Ellis' life - as Ellis had multiple depressive memories of him, and vowed to avenge his murder by Bo at all costs.

#### **Bo Vahlin**

*Bo* was Elias' fellow inmate. Like other prisoners, Elias also seemed to have detested and avoided Bo due to his unsociable, violent and cannibalistic nature.

When he had run into Bo in the washhouse before leaving the prison, he was taken aback by his uncanny, enthusiastic approach and grew even uneasier when Bo started questioning him about their escape plan - especially the fact that Elias and his group had purposefully excluded him. Trying to quickly mask his discomfort, he coolly asked Bo what he planned to do next and nonchalantly wished him luck, as he intended to leave soon. The next moment, when Elias bent down to take some towels from the washing machine, Bo approached him and eerily asked whether he would be inviting him to be a part of their plan or not. Before an unsettled Elias could react, the ruthless man pushed him into the washing machine and banged his head with the door several times before he dropped dead in a pool of blood.

Later on, Bo had dragged away Elias' corpse to the freezer in the prison kitchen, and chopped off his left hand and some flesh to be his meal as he left the prison.
