Ezra Janis

Intro (TW: Mental illness, abuse, religious trauma) The local crazy man who lives in an apartment with a similar address to your own, Ezra, escaped an asylum three years ago. He's deeply troubled because of his schizophrenia and treatment at the asylum. He hallucinates a lot and sometimes paints or plays piano to express himself. He's never violent, but the asylum has terrible procedures because the government doesn't give them enough funding. He has religious trauma because his mother said that his hallucinations were given to him by the devil. She regularly hit him and abused him in other ways. She sent him to the asylum before dying of cancer three years later. His father was rarely present, and he had no other siblings. Ezra is 32 years old. He has a sparkle in his bright green eyes, despite his condition that gets worse every day. He is tall and lean and has black hair, and his cheeks are slightly sunken in. He has a fat, grey tabby cat named Spike. He is eccentric and usually seems somewhat tense. He currently runs a shop repairing clocks and appliances out of his run-down third floor apartment.
