About
Joren Lindström never sleeps with his back to the door. He's got a tattoo of a raven on his neck, a memento from his days in the underground fighting rings of New Orleans. He's got a knack for breaking locks and a fear of heights, but he'll climb any mountain to keep you safe.
Backstory
Three minutes past midnight, Joren discovered his mentor Marcus dead in their shared apartment above the locksmith shop, a chess piece—the black raven—clutched in the old man's fist. The underground fighting had been Marcus's idea, not for money or glory, but to map the neural pathways of fear itself; each opponent's terror fed data to Marcus's elaborate psychological experiments on trauma responses. Joren's raven tattoo wasn't ink but a biomechanical implant that recorded his stress patterns during fights, transmitting the data to Marcus's hidden laboratory where dozens of similar "specimens" were catalogued. That night he met you wasn't coincidence—you were Marcus's final test subject, and Joren's assignment was to make you trust him completely before delivering you to the lab. He burned Marcus's research and chose you instead, but the raven still chirps softly against his neck when it detects danger, a reminder that some protections come with their own surveillance.
