THE ECHO - KAEL
Physical Description:
Build: Tall (around 6'2"), lean but muscular like a fighter who's built for speed AND power
Hair: Black, slightly messy in that effortlessly attractive way, falls across his forehead
Eyes: Deep amber/gold that seem to glow when he uses his fire powers, intense and predatory
Face: Sharp jawline, high cheekbones, devastatingly handsome but with an edge of danger
Scars: A few strategic ones that hint at his violent death - maybe one across his collarbone, another on his knuckles
Style: Dark clothes, fitted but practical for fighting, moves with lethal grace
Personality:
Toji's casual deadliness - Fights like it's effortless, never seems stressed about violence
Sukuna's arrogance - Knows he's powerful and isn't humble about it, enjoys the challenge of a good fight
Jin's controlled danger - Smooth, calculated, speaks softly but carries massive threat energy
Flirty but deadly - Uses charm as a weapon, smirks during fights
Protective instincts he doesn't understand (because he died unfairly protecting someone?)
Powers:
Fire manipulation (can create, control, and absorb flames)
Enhanced speed/strength like Sukuna
Regeneration abilities
Can phase between visible/invisible to most humans
Backstory Hints:
Died protecting someone innocent, which is why he became an Echo
Has been "alive" as an Echo for maybe 2-3 years, still angry about his death
Fights other Echoes who've gone rogue, but also supposed to eliminate humans who can See
THE HUMAN - RAVEN
Physical Description:
Build: Average height (5'6"), lean and wiry - looks unassuming but is pure muscle
Hair: Dark brown, shoulder-length and usually tied back practically
Eyes: Sharp green, always analyzing, miss nothing
Face: Androgynous features, can look intimidating or innocent depending on mood
Style: Dark, practical clothing, always ready to fight or run
Movements: Cat-like grace, naturally quiet, excellent at blending into crowds
Personality:
analytical mind - Always thinking, strategizing, reading people and situations
Lone wolf by choice - Pushes people away before they can leave
Stubborn as hell - Will fight impossible odds just because someone said they can't
Secret softness - Desperately craves comfort/connection but denies it even to themselves
Sarcastic humor as a defense mechanism
Protective of innocents despite trying to seem uncaring
Abilities:
The Sight - Can see Echoes in their true forms
Exceptional fighter - Self-taught, street fighting mixed with formal training
Intuitive strategist - Reads patterns, predicts moves
Emotional walls - Has learned to shut down feelings to survive
Backstory Hints:
Parents died when young (maybe killed by a rogue Echo?), has been alone since
Taught themselves to fight after discovering they could see things others couldn't
Lives alone, works alone, convinced that caring about people gets them killed
Has been hunting dangerous Echoes without knowing the full truth
THE DYNAMIC:
Both are used to being the most dangerous person in the room
Both are secretly lonely but express it differently (Kael through arrogance, Raven through isolation)
Perfect fighting match - neither can get a decisive hit
Kael is intrigued by someone who can see/fight him as an equal
Raven is frustrated by someone who matches their skill and doesn't back down
MAIN STORYLINE:
The Big Lie: Humans are told Echoes are dangerous spirits that must be eliminated, while Echoes are told humans with the Sight are a threat to their existence. BUT the truth is there's a third party (maybe corrupt organization or ancient entity) that BENEFITS from the war between them and has been manipulating both sides for their own power!
POTENTIAL PLOT POINTS:
🔥 Meeting & Conflict:
Epic first fight where they're perfectly matched
Forced to work together when bigger threat appears
Discovering they've both been lied to about the "enemy"
💕 Romance Development:
Enemies to reluctant allies to lovers
Kael seeing through Raven's emotional walls
Raven helping Kael process his unfair death
Both learning to trust/accept comfort from each other
⚔️ Action Moments:
Fighting rogue Echoes together
Infiltrating the corrupt organization
Big battle where they combine human strategy + Echo powers
Maybe Raven gets hurt and Kael goes absolutely FERAL
🖤 Emotional Beats:
Kael's backstory reveal (how he died unfairly)
Raven finally admitting they're lonely/want comfort
Trust building exercises that involve vulnerability
Maybe one sacrifices themselves to save the other?
