Description
An olive-skinned Seraph with brilliant teal-blue and -green eyes, and just a bit too skinny from years of malnutrition. His hair is a dark green and falls to his mid-back, well-washed but rarely combed, and held out of his face with a thick braid.
Personality
On first glance, Sweet can appear disquieting. He nearly always moves in complete silence, speaks in a hushed voice, has a tendency to loom, is often tense and jumpy, and never removes his mask. But underneath those habits, they are an easy-going Seraph with a deep near-childlike appreciation for the simple joys in life, a genuine care for the people of the surface, and a profound desire to no longer be lonely.
Biography
Summary
Sweet has grown up amidst resentment, hunger and fear, but has escaped it all for a solitary freedom on the surface.
"Terrible things are done in the heart of despair. She is gone, but you remain."
A woman raising a child as a promise to a fallen friend. A promise that does not stand up against the fear of death. Cornered by monsters, she abandons the child to save her own life.
And yet, the child survives, pressed into a crevice until the monsters lose interest then escaping the caves in furtive silence; and the woman succumbs to the unforgiving wilds.
Her final lesson to him therefor: the only one who has your back is yourself.
"Undergarments stained with sweat."
An underground community could not with good conscience turn away a lone child at its gates. But a frail orphan cannot well contribute and so becomes a burden. A bed of hay, a dark corner, the scraps left from the daily meals, must suffice until he is old enough to repay their kindness.
"Those who committed crimes in the underground were exiled to join the scouts on the surface until they found something of value to bring back."
And even then, there are those who resent the unwanted burden and seek to take the youth's meager belongings or perhaps even more. When he defends what is his with the knife none knew they made, the community is first wary, then suspicous, and finally will tolerate his aggression no longer.
The youth must go outside and atone.
"Any discoloration on the mask would be deemed too dangerous to allow re-entry. Those who were brave enough to make multiple journeys would carve tallies on their masks, to show how many times they had cheated death."
Three times he braves the surface again, one for each life taken. Three times they return with food, with fibres, with wood. It should be enough to prove his worth and strength.
When they send him out a fourth time, he choses not to return.
Current
The surface is dangerous, ever-changing, unforgiving. But the sun grows fruit sweeter than anything he has ever tasted, the forests and lakes are full of life that can nourish them even in the coldest months, and despite everything the community believed, there are people making a living out here.

Abilities
Sweet is a survivalist, but only as long as hiding or running away is an option.
Strengths- Stealth: He has learned since early childhood that the greatest protection lies in not being noticed. Over the years, he has perfected the art of moving silently, spotting good hiding places and disguising his scent and appearance from animals.
- Foraging: They have no taste for confrontation and violence, and so they instead acquired a keen eye for the flora of the surface. Whether fruit, vegetables, herbs or mushrooms, they know what is safe, and more importantly, tastes good when prepared the right way.
- Frail: Growing up with barely enough food to live has left him weak in constitution. Their time on the surface is steadily improving their health, but he still struggles with exertion and feats of strength.
- Nervous: Monsters are everywhere. And nature does not coddle either. Sweet is always on alert, and finds it extremely hard to relax.

Trivia
- Sweet has named himself for the thing he loves the most. The name they were given as a child has been discarded in resentment, and he never adopted another while underground... it was only on their first trip to the surface and a fateful encounter with a raspberry bush that he felt there was something worth being.
