BATHORY, ROBERT

After the death of his father, it was evident their mother wasn't all that capable of looking after them, thus the years spent with his sister are the times he treasures the most; he'd always tried to be good for her. Robert was a smart kid in the sense he knew when things were working and things weren't - in fact, he has a mild interest in mechanics - so after his mother's fiasco led him to be taken away to live with his Uncle, he didn't mind. He felt bad for making his sister be his guardian for so long, he was fourteen then and he's sixteen now and the sentiment hasn't really changed.

He led a simple life after his sister left his; his Uncle was insistent on it, possibly out of pity for the childish cruelty of his own sister, and Robert proved to be a promising kid. Although he never had many friends, and even the friends he had left without much effort, he did well in school and was talented with machines. He never caused trouble or spoke out of place, people generally liked him for his easy work ethic or hated him for his reclusive, almost creepy nature. Either way, he was a backdrop, a ghost, one blink he was gone.

The only thing he was insistent on was contact with his sister. Her letters were of varying length, and came at odd times of the month, but he kept every single one in an old biscuit box with masking tape wrapped around it; a precaution so he'd know if anyone got into his most precious possession. So when his older cousin decided to move to Nova Athenis for the job opportunities, Robert begged his uncle to let him go with her. He was hesitant, but in the end he let him go; Robert had never asked for anything else, anyway.
