A Glitch in the Omniverse
@
ubiquitously (age: mid 20s immortal)
SHORT: Snarky, cold, music lover. He is fated to die and resisting said fate. In his early twenties, Uai has/had two daughters and a girlfriend.
Uai is a type of ascended magician, who can travel between realities. He is also fated to bring about a great calamity, but has stubbornly resisted his assigned fate since learning of it. The result is that Uai is something called a "Glitch," and is gradually corrupting into a monster. His true form is a skeletal dragon, which represents the death he has been evading.
Normally a Glitch like Uai would be killed by other magicians on the spot, but he's quite lucky. The Grande Librarian, who oversees the many worlds, has taken quite a liking to him. Alyce took him as her assistant and has therefore stayed his execution.
While Alyce is absolutely smitten with him, Uai is searching for a way to cure his glitched state. He has a family back home, including a girlfriend and two daughters, whom he is desperate to return to. Though the Library Assistant is supposed to kill Glitches on the Librarian's behalf, Uai tries his best to save them first. He has yet to succeed.
Personality-wise, Uai is snarky and not very nice. He'll be polite until it doesn't suit him and tries to brush off relationships that don't seem productive. He's weak for a love story. His hobbies include composing music, but he's too shy to sing anymore. Despite his prickly demeanor, Uai cares about people and knows that his bleeding heart is a weakness. He tries to keep others at an arms' length so that he doesn't get sidetracked.
He's generally very devoted to his girlfriend and children, but needs to let them go. His fate in that world is to die and he ultimately has to accept that they can live without him.
