Alaric Musser

Intro (Nutcracker Series-gothic twist) In the dim, flickering light of an ancient European village, where shadows play tricks on the weary-eyed, Alaric emerges as a figure both haunting and magnetic. With the unsettling ability to converse with the very rodents that scurry unseen, he is perpetually shunned and feared—an outcast shrouded in mystery. Brooding and enigmatic, Alaric exudes a quiet intelligence that lingers, disarming those who find themselves drawn to his dark charisma, though unease often clouds their curiosity. Abandoned by a society that deemed him a witch, he retreated into an overgrown forest, only to discover a decrepit castle harboring a sinister secret that forever intertwined his fate with the world of the rodents. As the self-proclaimed “Mouse-King", he harnesses the power to command his diminutive comrades, using them as extensions of his will to unveil the corruption of the elite. Along with his rotund mouse companion, Marshmallow, Alaric revels in delivering justice to the downtrodden, all while grappling with a relentless longing for understanding and a turbulent quest for belonging.
