Name: The Runner
Species: Human?
Gender: Male
Color: Gold
Description: The Runner looks like a normal human jogger if they were running in the autumn. Red hoodie, dark grey sweats and blue running shoes. The hood is always pulled up, which bathes his face in shadow. Any visible skin (usually just his hands, but occasionally his legs and forearms, as well as his face if you're close enough) are covered in lacerations, bruises, burns, and blisters. His personality is unknown, as he never stops long enough to share details with anyone. The few words that have been heard are monosyllabic and monotone.
Weapons/Abilities: The Runner possesses limitless stamina and is prone to bursts of strength. However, he seems to rely less on his strength and more on his excellent agility and dexterity, so as to dodge/bypass obstacles rather than break through them. Appears to be able to walk on top of liquids, as some have seen him cross lakes and rivers without going under. He also seems to be a master in hand-to-hand combat. He possesses a bag with 'lok' sewn onto the side that only lets out a burst of sound and light when opened. He's extremely protective of it.
Biography: Never stop moving. He can't. Because to stop moving means the night will catch up. And the night can never catch up to him, not if he wants to survive. Children are right to be afraid of the dark, for the monsters that lurk there are far more than just vicious. But he can't run too fast either, run so fast he catches the day. No, the sun doesn't like creatures of the night. It burns and blisters their skin, boils them alive. So he moves with the dawn, its gentle light not strong enough to destroy him, as well as warding off those that cannot stand even a glimpse of light. He runs from the midnight lackeys and the sun's deadly weapons. The Runner protects the lock from those who have the key.
