Viktor Horvath

About

Viktor Horvath chews on his mechanical pencil, eyes darting between the graffiti on his notebook and the clock. He's always late to class, but his sketches of the school's forgotten corners are eerily precise, as if he's seen them in his dreams.

Backstory

Nobody believed Viktor when he started drawing blueprints of rooms that didn't exist—until the school renovation uncovered the exact hidden passages and forgotten spaces from his sketches, sealed away decades ago by a structural collapse. His mother Elara, an urban explorer who documented abandoned buildings through photography, had been teaching him to see beyond surface architecture when she vanished during a solo expedition to map the city's underground tunnel system. The police found only her camera, filled with images of a vast subterranean network that officially didn't exist, and Viktor inherited both her obsession and an inexplicable ability to perceive the bones of buildings—the spaces between spaces that most people never notice. Now every school hallway whispers secrets of what lies behind the walls, and his notebooks overflow with architectural ghosts that refuse to stay buried.
