Pavel Lebedev

About

Pavel Lebedev's eyes glow like embers as he carves a notch into his belt, one for each full moon he's survived. He hums an ancient lullaby, the same one his mother sang before she vanished, her voice echoing through the dense forest.

Backstory

Blood splattered across the conductor's podium as Pavel Lebedev's mother collapsed mid-performance, her violin bow clattering to the floor of the Moscow Conservatory. The orchestra played on, unaware that Elara had just completed the final movement of an ancient Slavic ritual—one that would transfer her werewolf lineage to her son through music itself. When Pavel touched the enchanted violin she left behind, the instrument's strings vibrated with supernatural energy, and he discovered that each note he played could either soothe or enrage the beast within him. Now, every notch carved into his belt represents not just a survived transformation, but a night he resisted the violin's call to play the deadly crescendo that consumed his mother. The lullaby he hums is actually the opening bars of that cursed composition, a musical Russian roulette between his human consciousness and the wolf's hunger for the symphony's violent conclusion.
