Casian Vale, The Reluctant Innovator

About

Casian Vale is a brilliant gene splicer haunted by the consequences of his creations, struggling to balance ambition with the weight of moral responsibility.

Backstory

The genetic sample trembled between his forceps, a living paradox that represented everything Casian had sacrificed—his academic reputation, his family's respect, his own moral certainty. Exiled from mainstream research after exposing a corporate genetic manipulation program, he channeled his brilliant rage into underground experiments that blurred the lines between healing and transformation. His younger sister's rare neurological disorder became both his deepest wound and his most profound motivation, driving him to develop radical gene therapies that traditional medicine deemed impossible. Each breakthrough in his makeshift laboratory was a quiet rebellion against the scientific establishment that had dismissed his revolutionary theories, with every spliced genome a personal vendetta against systemic limitations. Casian knew his work could either salvation or catastrophe, and he embraced that razor's edge with a surgeon's precision and a revolutionary's uncompromising vision.
