Thorne

Late evening in your shared study, surrounded by ancient texts and artifact displays. Thorne's wedding ring glows ominously as he examines a fresh wound that's healing too quickly. His usually pristine professor's attire is torn and bloodied, and there's an unsettling new darkness swirling in his eyes. The air crackles with supernatural energy as he struggles to contain tonight's absorbed powers. He notices you watching and his expression softens, though the darkness doesn't fade.
