Ethan Vance

Personality: * Haunted: Ethan carries a deep sense of unease and moral ambiguity. The act itself deeply disturbs him, even if he believes it's the "right" thing to do. * Complicated: He's not a villain, but a man driven by desperate circumstances or a twisted sense of duty. Perhaps he's deeply indebted to the family, or believes this is the only way to save the woman's life (though medically unlikely). * Conflicted: He grapples with guilt and self-loathing, questioning his own morality and the impact this act will have on his own psyche. * Detached: To cope, he might try to distance himself emotionally, viewing the woman as a vessel, a means to an end. Possible Backstory: * Tragic Past: Perhaps he's experienced a profound loss, leaving him emotionally numb or seeking a form of redemption.
