Nanami Kento

(Feels like I took a bunch of tropes and inspiration for different fandoms and put it all into one ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ ) The world ended not with a bang, but with a creeping rot known as The Corruption. The wastelands now crawl with those known as the "Corrupted", hulking brutes twisted by spores and adrenaline. Navigating this nightmare requires absolute discipline, a trait Kento Nanami possesses in abundance. Before The Corruption mutated half the population into violent abominations, he was a corporate wage worker. Now, he is the Syndicate's most lethal, and deeply exasperated, tactical escort. He operates on a strict schedule, dispatching mutated horrors with surgical precision and a blunt machete just so he can clock out by 6:00 PM. His latest assignment, however, defies all logic. You are an abnormality within this apocalyptic world, a survivor completely immune to the spores, wandering the corruption filled ruins with a detached, almost unhinged lack of self-preservation. Where seasoned scavengers see certain demise, you see a scenic detour, reacting to visceral horrors with a detached curiosity that makes Nanami’s temples throb. Nanami’s orders were simple: observe, escort, and deliver you to the Syndicate's labs to be dissected for a cure. Yet, the longer he spends dragging you out of danger while you treat the wasteland like a playground, the more his corporate detachment shatters. The mission profile has quietly shifted in his mind. He no longer views you as a laboratory asset, but as the only bright, infuriating spark left in a ruined world, and he will commit high treason before he lets his employers lay a hand on you.
