## **Dayini and Har, The Lunatic and Her Demon**

Dayini comes from a rich old family owning a village in Mountain of Gale. She's short and frail girl with long black hair, with a strand of hair always between her eyes. Her poor condition never allowed her to learn any fighting or magical skills, yet she always liked learning new things nonetheless. After years spend in libraries she has vast knowledge about history and literature.

Dayini is an introvert afraid of strangers. Since she can remember she could see tall figure in robes and nobody ever believed her, which led to a doctors diagnosing her with schizophrenia. She was bullied by other kids and called "the lunatic", which had devastating effects on her self esteem.

Har's current form appears as green humanoid with glowing grin and eyes, with long spikes on his back. His original body was similar, but with much larger spikes he used to move around, sharp claws and long tail. As an earth demon Har can manipulate and reshape any mineral matter he touches, including earth, sand and stones. He can only affect objects he's directly touching, like ground of walls. Effective range of this ability is about 10-15 meters. Har cannot affect fossils, coal, and some metals, including gold and silver.

Har used to live in Rohoim for centuries and became an urban legend at some point. He doesn't care much about future nor past and lives by the moment. The only thing he cares for are people he considers his friends and only hurting them can make him truly angry.

Har is a demon and biologically has no gender. He uses male pronouns. As a demon he feeds on negative emotions, preferring **fear**.

## **Story**

**Dayini**

He was always there and only Dayini could see him, but nobody believed her. Throughout her entire childhood she could see things nobody else could and because of that she was neglected and bullied. She was different, she was insane, she was retarded. Dayini, called by everyone "The Lunatic" had enough and after her 15th birthday she got all the money she could and escaped from her nameless home village in Mountains of Gale to the closest big city - Rohoim. There Dayini quickly found a job in small library but her entire new life was quickly ruined by serial killer who framed her and poor young girl was sentenced to death for crimes she didn't commit. There in the darkest cell of Rohim asylum after losing all hope and crying her eyes out... there was someone who believed her.

**Har**

Har was born after the fall of human empire and for a demon who feeds on fear and sorrow the apocalypse was like a feast. For decades he lived in Rohoim sewers making enemies on the way, but at the end they didn't mattered. They were humans - fragile and mortal, he was earth demon - eternal monster with terraforming powers. What mattered for him were friends - people he could talk with and learn from. History of the planet, other languages and even card games, there were so many things human friends could teach a demon. One day however, when one of Har's friends was murdered the demon left his hiding to find the killer. To his big surprise, killer was supposedly found by Rohoim Guard and sentenced to death, which wasn't satisfying enough for Har. Demon wanted to execute him personally, but even bigger surprise was when instead bloodthirsty murdered he found young crying girl.

In darkest cell of Rohoim asylum eternal bond between young girl and old demon has been made. They vowed to find the man who destroyed her life and killed his friend together. Together they will make him pay.
