Pre-Hollow: Prior to the incident, Sebastian was considered a healthy adult male with no abnormalities. He ate a balanced diet following the Mediterranean diet and had been a vegetarian for several years before that.
Post-Hollow: Often looks underweight and frail. Sebastian has a myriad of symptoms that doctors cannot seem to find the cause. He experiences persistent chronic headaches, nosebleeds and fatigue. Other symptoms include lack of appetite or nausea after eating, unexplained body aches, and chronic cough that sometimes causes hemoptysis. Despite many rounds of testing, there appears to be no direct cause for the symptoms.
PERSONALITY: Sebastian has always been a bit of an outcast, an odd soul. He's always had an insatiable lust for knowledge about everything you could think of. He enjoyed school and excelled, skipping grades, had multiple hobbies, all in spite of his constant procrastination and last minute projects. He enjoyed collecting insect specimens as a teenager and pinning them, much to his brother's disgust. He read biology textbooks, fell in love with sci fi and horror, and dreamed of becoming a scientist that uncovered the secrets of the world.
His obsession with the complexities of the mind began the summer before he went to college. He and his best friend, Jayden, were preyed upon by a serial killer while out camping with Jayden's family. The close encounter sparked a light in him that had been dimmed until then. He wanted to know what made someone go to such lengths. How did they find pleasure in such depravity?
The Graven Vanguard: The sentinels against The Hollow. He was forced to join upon his Incident with The Hollow. These days, his main job is to work on researching the effects of The Hollow on people and the world, something he has thankfully always been good at. He is known as a Hollow Researcher due to having been Cursed by the Hollow.
Unknown. But what is known is that every time he has used his ability, he is ill for several days after. Moreso than usual.
