Donja Vrijeska, Croatia

1991
Living in a small village means everyone knows everyone's business, while also not knowing everyone's business at the same time. Donja Vrijeska, a less than one hundred populated village in the heart of Croatia, managed to stray its long-running underground community from the public eye, disguised under a small Orthodox Catholic Church. It began when war broke out between the countries of Yugoslav, with many men from the village recruited for the armies. Being in the center of Croatia where the Serb army crossed, the village has lost many of its people bringing the population down to half from what it used to be. A man who called himself Father claimed to have received the blessing of the gods, stood up to calm wary mothers with promises to bring peace upon them; that no one shall feel any more pain for the rest of their lives. And in desperate times everyone believed him. He introduced them to a way, a ritual, to erase pain forever. They agreed to conduct the ceremony on men first before sending them off to the army, then the women and children would be given the same blessing. All they needed to do was to drink from a cup that Father gave, filled with strange liquid. A cup of the unknown and a lifetime of devotion were all it took for them to be at peace with the war.1995
War has ended. The people have claimed their independence. The village had lost most of its male population as an after-effect, it turned into a female-populated village in the span of four years with barely thirty people living in it. The war was inevitable and so is death, but their faith in Father's blessing led them to believe that at least their sons died a painless death. Father made it a mission to send women outside to marry men and come back bearing children to increase the population. But there was one rule that they had to follow: if the child happened to be male, he would be offered to the gods once he reached the age of five. And to rest the mothers assured, Father promised to give the sons blessing. After being given the painless blessing by Father, the child will be handed back to his mother to perform the sacrificial rituals, which included a cut through the child's throat as everyone sang their prayers to the gods. And at night they feast to celebrate the ritual. A body as small as a five-year-old was enough to feed the whole village for one night.

background

The first of October marked the beginning of the fall season of 2004. It was also the fifth birthday of a certain blond child named Deniel. His mother told him that his fifth birthday would be very special, that everyone in the village would be happy to celebrate it for him because then he would finally meet the gods Father had spoken so much about. Father gave him one last special gift: a blessing, in the form of thick red liquid in a golden cup. Deniel drank from the cup as choir of prayers echoed in the ceremony chamber. They grew louder as his body started to writhe in pain, battling the strange substance he'd consumed to finally settle. As Deniel was fighting for his life, the chamber's door swung open by a huge force. The police came pouring in, arresting everyone on sight. And the ritual had been cut short.
Deniel woke up in the hospital the next two days with one arm handcuffed to the bed. He had been informed that the whole village was arrested that night. But as they stayed in jail for questioning, their male leader had killed everyone, then himself, by stabs in the stomach and chest area. No sound was made as it happened. No cry nor scream. The next morning, dozens of bodies had been found laying dead on the jail floor. Making Deniel their only survivor.After years of living between the orphanage and catholic school dormitories, Deniel spent his first day of being eighteen finally leaving his home country, to travel and look for answers for his abnormal physical condition. He'd grown curious with machine and weaponries and the such, hoping that one day he'd be able to finally found the right thing to let him feel pain again.

PROFILE

profile

Can be easily described as the quite one since he prefer to listen and speak when it's necessary. As an ISFP, Deniel likes to observe his surrounding with a smile never leaving his face. Although he enjoys being around people, he can also be found hanging out on his own, mostly on top of tall things like trees or roofs.

ABILITY

ability

CONGENITAL ANALGESIA
is the known medical term for his indescribable body ability. His indifference towards pain includes the kind that's inflicted by: extreme change of temperature (heat and cold), cuts, shots or any damage to the body (including internal organs), and everything that will trigger the nerves system pain receptor. He can however feel other kinds of sensory triggers, like touch and textures, his own body heat, and warmth shared from other living being.CELL REGENERATION
Up until recently did he noticed that his injury can heal faster than what's considered normal for people. A centimeter-deep cut will only take two days, or approximately 40 hours, for it to fully heal with no scar left behind, while fractured bones will take up to a week with the help of cast. Although he will still need to disinfect and close the wound before he loses blood and endanger his life.PARKOUR
it is the one thing he enjoys since he was a child. The freedom he feels for climbing and reaching high places, jumping from one place to another, and running as fast as he can. It also comes in handy to slip away from troubles.

After years of research and exploration, Deniel has come to understand the cause of his abnormalities. It all dialed down to the moment he received Father's blessing on his fifth birthday. The shiny red liquid in a golden cup; it was blood. It must've been the blood of an anomaly.
