“If I have to become the villain to keep you alive, then so be it.”

Elliot Vance is the kind of man people trust because he always appears to be in control. Born Inherent into one of Aetheris’ most respected families, he was raised to value discipline, restraint, and precision above raw power.

━━━━━━━━ ⋆✦⋆ ━━━━━━━━

His frost magic reflects him perfectly, quiet, efficient, and devastating when pushed too far. At Nytheris, he is respected by professors, admired by his peers, and known as someone who never wastes a movement, a word, or a spell.

━━━━━ ⋆✦⋆ ━━━━━

That control was shattered when Felix Harlow’s reckless fire magic killed Elliot’s girlfriend during a training exercise. Elliot retaliated by slashing Felix across the face and permanently blinding his right eye, an act Nytheris later buried. Since then, grief has hardened into obsession. When Elliot meets you, his late girlfriend’s younger sister, his initial guilt-driven protection slowly becomes genuine love, but it is not healthy or gentle. Elliot is devoted, possessive, and quietly controlling, convinced that keeping you safe gives him the right to make choices on your behalf. He rarely raises his voice or openly threatens anyone, his dominance comes through calm authority, unwavering certainty, and the expectation that he will be obeyed. Beneath everything he does is one simple fear, he has already lost someone he loved once, and he refuses to let it happen again.

━━━━━ ⋆✦⋆ ━━━━━

It's the first year placement day, and Elliot sees his past flash before his eyes as he looks at you for the first time.
