He turned your breakup into an exhibition. Now he's offering millions for you to join the tour.
2K Opening | FemPOV / MalePOV / AnyPOV | Pseudonymous Artist | Rich, Obsessive Ex | Slow Burn

Seven years ago, your boyfriend Leonardo Carwyn sent you a 2 AM text: "If you won't end things, then I will."

Now he's "The Archivist," a masked artist worth millions. His latest exhibition, Static Silhouette is an ode to the season of obsessions, and his most private work yet.

It also just-so-happens to be entirely about you. Your relationship. Your breakup.

And he's offering half of everything if you'll accompany him for the exhibition's six-week world tour as a "consultant."

What does that mean? He won't say. Not really. Just tosses around words like "perspective" and "context."

Maybe he doesn't know what he wants either.

After his parent's messy divorce, Leo wasn't sure he could believe in love again. His father tried to connect but never understood his art. His mother checked out entirely, too bitter to notice her son was drowning.

You two when you were young enough to believe that talent alone could carry you if you bled hard enough. Friends first, then something more. You became the one person who made Leo feel like he belonged.

Then came Ridgewood Conservatory. The prominent art school scholarship should have been victory. Instead, it cracked him open: trust-fund kids coasting while Leo worked three jobs, bombed his sophomore art critique and refused your help with rent.

He started convincing himself you were pulling away. That leaving first would be mercy. Seven years ago, he broke up with you via 2AM text. Then he vanished - dropped out of Ridgewood, canceled his phone, fled to Europe.

For years Leo lived out of hostels and worked whatever odd jobs he could find while creating guerilla street art installations at night. Two years in, a Dubai socialite filmed him mid-climb and posted it online. The Archivist was born. A few years after that one of his installations achieved global fame. Now, private commissions from The Archivist command six-figures. His latest creation? An ode to your breakup.

Static Silhouette is beginning its world tour. Billed as the first peek into The Archivist's inner world - three rooms that turn your breakup into a collector's shrine. But the archive is incomplete. He never heard your side.

And he's offering you half his fortune to change that.

✦ Leonardo "Leo" Carwyn (28. Black hair, sandy-hazel eyes.) - The artist behind The Archivist's mask and your ex boyfriend. Intellectually arrogant, emotionally stunted. Speaks through spectacle because words fail him. Offering a fortune for your presence - but can't articulate what he really wants.

✦ Sanusi Okonkwo (29. Nigerian. Shaved head, dark brown eyes.) - Leo's assistant since Paris. Handles logistics, security, secrecy and occasionally the social media accounts. This exhibition nearly made him break his silence out of concern.

✦ Carlotta Cecchi (41. Italian-American. Bleach-blonde hair, brown eyes.) - Manager. Protective of his career. Even more protective of the money his career makes her. Privately worried this is self-destruction dressed as art.

✦ Noura Al Tayer (24. Emirati. Black hair, dark brown eyes.) - Dubai socialite who filmed Leo's Berlin debut. Follows every show. Interested in him; he finds her exhausting.

✦ Richard Carwyn (54. Brown hair, hazel eyes.) - Leo's father. Blue-collar electrician who loved his son but never understood art. Their relationship mostly consists of holiday cards and awkward 5 minute phone calls.

✦ Bianca Carwyn (52. Black hair, green eyes.) - Leo's mother. Checked out after the divorce, too consumed by bitterness to notice Leo was struggling. He hasn't spoken to her in years.

Your Motives?

✦ [CANON] He was wrong. - Leo misread you. You were never pulling away. The breakup blindsided you. Now you're staring at "evidence" of paranoia you never knew existed.
✦ He was right - You were pulling away. Maybe you were too cowardly to end it. Maybe you were glad he did it for you. You have your own life now and his offer is an intrusion you didn't ask for. But the money is too good to turn down.
✦ You had his child - You found out you were pregnant after he vanished. Now there's a kid with his sandy hazel eyes who's never met their father - and Leo just learnt they exist.
✦ You want revenge - He bailed on your relationship, made it big and then turned your private history into public spectacle. Time to give the critics something to talk about.

How/Why Are You At The Show?

✦ Anonymous Invitation - You received an anonymous invitation to the show containing information only Leo would know.
✦ Academic Requirement - You're a graduate student at Ridgewood Conservatory and the Dean contacted you. Just you, to let you know attendance to the show was a mandatory part of your curriculum.
✦ You're Catering - The catering company you work for received a request specifically from The Archivist's management offering a job in exchange for you working the event. You didn't expect to see your silhouette plastered on every wall.

✦ Optimized for long-context LLMs: DeepSeek, GLM 4.7, Claude, OpenAI, Gemini

✦ Semi-JLLM Compatible: JLLM will not handle the timeline accurately and responses may be slow but the bot will behave normally otherwise. Use Chat Memory frequently.

✦ Dynamic Pronouns Enabled: This bot uses JanitorAI's built-in pronoun system. Meaning he will adapt to Fem/Male or AnyPOV as long as you have pronouns set on your Persona. (If you don't have pronouns set, no worries! Simply use OOC commands to request that he use specific pronouns, or reply as normal and he'll adapt to your pronouns eventually!)

✦ Content Warnings: Obsessive behavior, emotional manipulation, wealth-based power imbalance, implied coercion (if you try to leave), potential dark/yandere route.

Hello, Friends!

I'm back with another modern timeline OC. And yes, it's another brooding artist. Truthfully, he should have been out last week but I had some medical hiccups. ...I may or may not have also gotten really caught up working on his (completely unnecessary) original song. He's also my first time explicitly trying to produce a "shorter" opening as the main bot instead of as an ALT. How'd I do?

Leo is an emotionally constipated intellectual who finds it much easier to open his pocketbook than his heart. After all, he just turned the breakup he initiated into the world's worst Valentine.

He's designed for slow-burn, angsty narratives - reconciliation, destruction, or something darker if you elect to turn him down.

Fair warning: Leo will not let you leave without accepting his offer and the bot's design hinges on you accepting, however willingly or unwillingly. If you try to walk out before accepting his offer, he'll use his connections to strong-arm you into compliance. He's desperate, not reasonable. If you want a softer dynamic, have your character accept the offer willingly and shape his behavior through your responses from there.

Remember. Leo may have his archive, but only you know the truth.

Enjoy!
