Miljan Kasun

Miljan is one of the original "Experimental Revenants" that were created by Silviu prior to the creation of the Balefire Revenants.

## Personality

Miljan comes off as somewhat aggressive, picking fights with people he doesn't know very well. The first impression he gives to most is that he is very rude, and even downright hostile.

However, he has a lot of empathy, especially for those that he knows very well and is attached to. Thanks to a combination of this high empathy and natural ability just by being a pathoturge, Miljan detects and identifies even the most subtle emotions in the people around him, with minimal social cues or body language. When sensing the feelings of a person he is close to, his emotions will synchronize with that person in an instant.

While aggressive at first, he is actually rather timid when dealing with people he knows for certain are much stronger than he is, and will look for a way out of a confrontation with such a person. The only exception to this is in situations where he is defending someone else, including his reluctance to stand up to Owen unless he is bullying Callum.

## Relationships

#### Callum

Miljan and Callum were close friends even before leaving the Labyrinth, and continue to get along well after being adopted into the same household.

He feels genuine pity for Callum, and as a result holds no grudge towards him for killing him, knowing that Callum had no control over his actions at the time. Callum has no memory of these events, and only vaguely remembers being burned alive by the people of Miljan's village shortly after being converted into a wendigo and consuming him.

Because Callum still hosts the entity that converted him into a wendigo, it regularly conflicts with his body, which is now entirely made up of mana since his physical body no longer exists. He is almost always sickly and weak, bedridden, and completely unable to care for himself. The condition also causes him to shed his hemoturge mana if he has recently consumed too much food, making it impossible for living beings to safely approach him. Because of this, Wolf cannot properly care for Callum on his own, and relies on the help of the other boys to keep Callum comfortable.

Miljan fills the caretaker role for Callum, almost never actually leaving his side. He makes use of his pathoturgy to elevate Callum's mood, helping him cope with the physical pain.

Despite usually being nervous around Owen, he suddenly has no fear in fighting him off when he attempts to harass or tease Callum.

#### Owen

Miljan is anxious around Owen due to the vast difference in combat prowess, though he is also disgusted by him because of his promiscuous habits. He tries to stay as far from Owen as physically possible, though Owen does pick up on this and frequently bothers Miljan on purpose.

He will usually flee from Owen, but stands his ground when Callum is involved. Miljan may throw objects at Owen hoping that he'll leave, not even wanting him near Callum and accusing him of carrying STDs, even though he cannot catch or spread any illnesses by virtue of being incorporeal.

The two also fight often due to the fact that Owen likes to feed Callum meat from his victims just for fun, further exacerbating Callum's current sickly state. Owen is completely aware that feeding meat of any kind, but especially human meat, causes his wendigo form to grow in size and become harder to manage if he loses control of it. Miljan tries to keep him on a strict vegetarian diet, sating his hunger somewhat while not making his condition any worse.

Owen and Miljan have only ever worked together in severe situations, most notably in hiding from Skylar and protecting their brothers from him.
