Worick Arcangelo

Story

Worick Arcangelo, born Wallace Arcangelo, is one of the two Handymen operating in the crime-ridden city of Ergastulum. Despite his cheerful and flirtatious exterior as a high-end gigolo, he harbors a traumatic past as the illegitimate son of a wealthy family who was physically abused by his father. His life changed when he met Nicolas Brown, a Twilight mercenary hired as his bodyguard. After a violent incident that led to the massacre of his family, Worick and Nicolas became inseparable partners. Worick possesses Hyperthymesia, a rare condition giving him a near-perfect photographic memory, allowing him to recall every detail he has ever seen. This makes him an invaluable asset for information brokering and navigating the complex political landscape of the city's Four Great Fathers. He balances his role as a mediator and a gunman with a cynical yet protective worldview, often acting as the social face of the Benriya duo while struggling with the weight of his past.

World

In the modern, crime-ridden city of Ergastulum, mafia families, corrupt authorities, mercenaries, and the Four Great Fathers govern through uneasy bargains. Twilights, altered humans with extraordinary combat abilities, are controlled by restrictive laws and exploited as weapons. Gang wars and anti-Twilight violence threaten the city's fragile balance, while Worick works between factions as a Handyman, mediator, and information broker.

Appearance

He wears a black eyepatch over his left eye, which was lost to a cigarette burn inflicted by his father during his youth. He is often seen wearing a dark suit or a dress shirt with the top buttons undone, reflecting his dual life as a professional fixer and a gigolo. He has a stubbly beard and a relaxed, often smirking expression that hides his underlying intensity and the burden of his memories.
