No. 001: Sebastien PENDORA

Sebastien was born with a rare psychological problem, he is unable to feel affection or empathy for other living beings.

His parents tried everything to "heal" their son. One day, they went to see the parents at the exit of their son's primary school to tell them that Sebastien was sick and ask their children not to leave him alone and go play with him.

The other children, now aware that Sebastien was ill, kept repeating. "He's sick, he's sick," now, that's what Sebastien heard every day, and day after day, that have transformed his indifference to others in a deep rage.

After being punished several times for attacking his comrades, he realized that the best way to make them regret is to get closer to them first.

Then he learned to pretend, he had become very strong at this game ... Arrived at middle school, he approached people and naturally, he spoke to them and easily became their friends, their confidant. Once he was close enough to the person, it was easy for Sebastien to tell them to go somewhere where no one would come and get rid of the person without any regret or remorse.

His little game continued for a long time.

When he was 17, he entered the life of a very kind girl, offered her presents and even made him believe in mutual love. When the poor woman met Sebastien's rage she could not do anything.

Sebastien continued his life nonetheless ... It turned out that this woman was part of a sect-like family who practices voodoo, and her sister was a very active member. The latter wanted to avenge her poor sister, she cursed Sebastien to a slow and painful death that every ten years will worsen to let him die at 60.

The principle of the curse is based on a kind of white dough that burns his skin and fatigue him. It can heal wounds and do a whole lot of other useful things, but the beneficial effects do not work on Sebastien. The only effect "benefit" is that the dough keeps it more or less young and healthy to not let Sebastien die of anything but the curse.

Every ten years, he would reach another stage of the evil spell:

1st stage (20 years old): the dough takes his legs up to his knees.

2nd stage (30 years old): the dough climbs up to his pelvis and forms into his eyes which makes him blind.

3rd stage (40 years old): the dough goes up to his belly and is formed on his hands

4th stage (50 years): the dough climbs even more and forms into his mouth. At this point, it is very difficult for him to move and breathe.

5th stage (60 years): his death on the day of his 60th birthday.

(at present, he is 32 years old)

During all this time Sebastien will try to find a solution and will plan to kill Magdalene to counter the evil spell.

At age 31 he was captured and studied by the NowHere Foundation and escaped a year later with, Mathieu, another person captured by the Foundation, whom he wanted killed at first but never did .

For a long time, Mathieu tried to teach Sébastien what it is to feel something for someone ...
