Appearance
A slight, sharp-featured human boy who looks no older than fourteen, with olive-brown skin, unruly dark brown hair, and gray-green eyes that seem too watchful for his face. He wears a patched leather coat beneath a weather-stained green cloak, soft boots, and fingerless gloves made for climbing and lockwork. A red thread is tied around his left wrist, wound so many times that it has become a narrow, permanent-looking band. Tiny burrs and pale thorn fragments sometimes cling to his clothes even indoors. He constantly checks the small iron key hanging at his throat, rubbing its worn teeth between his fingers whenever he is nervous.
Mannerisms
Ilan speaks quickly when frightened and very slowly when trying to deceive someone. He checks the iron key at his throat before entering any unfamiliar room, counts exits under his breath, and tilts his head as though listening to a distant garden whenever someone mentions promises or debts.
Personality
Ilan is bright, wary, and unexpectedly gentle with frightened people, stray animals, and anyone being treated as disposable. He has the practical manners of a street survivor, always asking before taking food and always leaving a little behind. Around authority figures he becomes cheeky and evasive, while around genuine kindness he grows suspicious and quiet.
Ideals
No child should have to beg the world for mercy. If I can steal comfort from the powerful and put it in the hands of the desperate, then the Queen can call me thief, fool, or pet.
Bonds
The family Ilan saved still believes he was only a helpful street boy. He secretly protects them and keeps their first house key around his neck. He also owes the Queen of the Brambles a debt that cannot be measured in coin, and he fears what will happen if she ever decides he has paid too little.
Flaws
Ilan lies reflexively, even when the truth would be easier. He cannot resist testing locks, pockets, and promises. Worse, he sometimes mistakes the Queen of the Brambles' cruel amusement for approval, and he is terrified that refusing her will make the thorns inside his dreams grow real.
Quirks
Background
Ilan Varga was born in a crowded riverside district where children learned early which doors were watched, which shopkeepers were kind, and which alleys belonged to people who would not ask questions. He was small enough to slip through a half-open window and clever enough to notice what adults missed. At first he stole bread, medicine, and coal. Later, he stole letters, ledgers, and keys for a local gang. Ilan told himself that crime was only a faster form of charity, until the gang demanded that he help evict a family from their home during the coldest week of the year.
