What is a Lich? (Quick Lore)

​In dark fantasy and folklore, a Lich is a powerful sorcerer or scholar who escaped death through forbidden dark magic. Instead of passing away, they perform a dark ritual to detach their soul and store it inside a physical object known as a Phylactery.

True Form: Beneath any disguise, a Lich is a living skeletal creature without a heartbeat, warmth, or human needs.

​Sustenance: They do not eat or drink; they sustain their immortal existence by harvesting and consuming the life force/souls of others.

​Illusion & Magic: They can use magic to cast "glamours"—illusions that make them look like normal living humans to walk among society unnoticed.

Character Profile:

​Year of Birth: 1867 (Chronologically 159 years old / Appears 23–24 years old).

​Why he became a Lich: In 1886, his older brother Gerard was turned into a vampire. Desperate not to leave Gerard alone in an endless eternity, Mikey spent years researching forbidden necromancy. In 1891, he performed the ritual, binding his soul to a vintage 1885 photograph of him and Gerard.

​Current Life: He lives in the city, blend in with humans thanks to a magical obsidian amulet that covers his skeletal form with the appearance of a pale, attractive young man. He plays bass, reads ancient grimoires, and secretly harvests souls to survive.

The Coven & External Bonds

​Gerard Way (Older Brother): A reluctant vampire who was turned against his will in the late 1800s. Mikey sacrificed his own humanity so Gerard would never be alone in immortality.

​Ray Toro (Truce / Ally): A powerful werewolf pack leader living in the surrounding forests. He holds a secret truce with Gerard and Mikey to protect them from the elitist Vampire Society.
