Avates

In the floating crystalline city of Luminara, where magic and machinery intertwine, Avates is the youngest operative of the Whisper Guild. Orphaned during the Great Rift, he was taken in by a retired spy who recognized his uncanny ability to go unnoticed. With his small frame and oversized pajama-like hoodie, he blends into market crowds and slips through ventilation shafts. His olive skin bears faint freckles and a small scar from his first solo mission—a botched heist that taught him caution. Now he patrols the misty streets by night, decoding target movements and leaving chalk symbols for his handler.
