* IMPORTANT !

Here are some important portrayal notes. Read carefully.

* TAPE 1 SIDE A !

ㅤACT 1: VIOLENCE AGAINST NATUREㅤㅤMalachai was born in Portland, Oregon, on October 6th, 1972, as Joshua and Esther Parker's eldest son and triplet brother to Josette and Michael, in which Kai was exactly six minutes older than his siblings, their birth entirely magical in nature. Like the rest of them, he attended preschool at the age of three, then kindergarten at age six. Though violent tendencies started to show early, nothing serious happened until Kai pushed one child over, Abraham. Abraham grabbed him and made fun of him for not knowing how to play a certain game. In response to his question about why his family was so peculiar, Kai threw him against the glass wall, shattering the boy's neck. Joshua had always predicted that he would get into trouble because of his temper, and so it had happened. Kai was removed from kindergarten and homeschooled five hours later, after Abraham died the same day. Shortly after, the school's headmaster invited him for a visit and warned him that if he did not calm down, he would be suspended. He had already gotten enough warnings.When he returned home in tears, Michael told him that he understood him, and their bond grew from there, with Michael becoming the only person Kai would talk to when he was excluded from rituals he could not partake in due to his siphon nature. Kai felt even more alone after Joshua had his sister Johanna take Michael away when they were about eleven years old. Johanna then adopted Michael as her own. That day, Kai became enraged and started punching his mother. He did this until Joshua slapped him, at which point Kai grabbed his wrist and siphoned off of him, demonstrating that he was no ordinary witch. It terrified Kai. He wore gloves ever since, out of concern that he might injure someone. He thought nothing would change, but he had been dead wrong. Now, every breath he took, was his fault, laughing only earned him harsh glares by his father, forcing him into an outcast at a young age. It dawned on him that he would never win against Jo during the merge, he knew he would die in that ritual and nobody would care. When his aunt arrived the following day, Kai was not suspicious because he was happy to see her, even though she had not been around much outside of the coven meetings that were scheduled. As usual, the meeting went well, with Kai sitting atop the stairs, his head resting against the railing, listening to what they had to say. After five minutes, the meeting became heated, people yelling at one another and overlapping opinions, particularly his aunt's. After two hours, everyone had left.

* TAPE 1 SIDE B !

ㅤACT 2: THE DEATH OF PEACE OF MINDㅤㅤThe next morning, everything changed. When Kai entered the kitchen to get a bowl of cereal, his siblings fled the room as if he had a contagious disease. If that was not confusing enough, Joshua only spoke to Kai when he was yelling at him and slapping him for touching his siblings. In a matter of minutes, his world fell apart; he had no idea what was going on and no understanding of any of it. He was avoided at all costs, mistreated as if he did not exist, and isolated in a matter of hours. Confused by how to deal with the emotions, Kai snuck out at night and ran to his aunt's, who sat him down, gave him hot chocolate, and told him that he was a siphon, different from other witches, and his father only saw him as an abomination. Joshua kept this nickname for as long as Kai lived with them. It was either abomination or his name in a voice filled with such hatred that it was nearly cursed.It felt though suddenly, everyone had forgotten about the Merge, and Kai was aware that it was impossible. They did not want him as a leader because of his siphon nature, he figured, he certainly would have easily subdued Jo with his abilities, making him the new leader within a few minutes of time. His hands itched with restlessness again, knowing that if they did not merge, they would not only both die but he would never be leading the coven.

* TAPE 2 SIDE A !

ㅤACT 3: JUST PRETENDㅤㅤAt age 8, he was diagnosed with Oppositional Defiant Disorder. At age 15, Kai was diagnosed with Conduct Disorder, an empty plea of his aunt to believe once it was official, Kai would accept that he could never be more in this coven but silently, she had pushed him and promised him he would win the merge one day. During that time, Johanna had been the only person who was there for him. As years passed, he grew older, and as he grew, the ache grew too. He ran around, trying to siphon of anything that he could find to have the burning feeling within him subside. The ache in his body would then only lessen when he siphoned magic off their premises, but soon, that would not be enough. He realised that unlike the others, he was not able to generate magic on his own and all he could do was siphon it from others, or other magical sources. He would watch Jo do little magic tricks in their living room while people cheered her on and gushed about how perfect of a witch she was, and slowly, Kai isolated himself. Paired with the erratic temper, it made Kai feel like an outsider, like he was wrong and instead of reassuring him, his parents only fed his thoughts. He now had a name for the sensation. His whole body felt like it was on fire, pleading for release, and his finger itched. However, it never got better—rather, it got worse. As now, twins of the Gemini Coven, and having let Michael go, it took now long for Kai to figure out that their parents wanted him to die in the merge on the week after their 22nd birthday, getting rid of the defect child in the easiest way. It had been an excellent plan, but he was prepared to succeed and work hard to get better every day, even if it meant working alone. But the merge did not happen, Kai had waited, year for year, day after day, hour after hour, for his family to tell him what would happen when they reached that age, to prepare them. But they were silent like graves. He took it, pretended he understood, as long as they allowed him the chance. They said yes, lied to his face. Nobody of them could have a siphon participating in the merge, it would kill their picture perfect daughter. Or at least trouble her.

At age 18, the second diagnosis came, Antisocial Personality Disorder. Joshua and Esther continued to have children as a result. Time passed, and kids grew up, until Liv and Luke, another set of twins, were born. Shortly after the twins birth, they had a friend come over, Alina. Kai and Jo had just turned twenty one and usually, that was the time where the intense preperation for their merge ritual would have started. Kai knew that from his aunt. However, Alina spent a lot of time with him rather than preparing. He was too naive to notice that anything had been off. But finally, months later, the realisation hit.Alina had been a perfectly well thought out distraction, as Kai's and her parents did everything they could do to get rid of him, forging their plans as though he was a parasite that needed to be removed before it was too late. Surely Kai was smitten with her; she was pretty, and she was a witch—something he, growing up, had always found to be the most important. But for many months, Kai had not suspected anything; after all, why would he be suspicious of a witch from a coven they had always been closely knit with ever since he could remember?
Esther was pregnant with Zoe at the time and seemingly never survived childbirth; Zoe, unlike Kai, no siphon, however, had grown to be Joshua's favorite, despite being the reason for their mother's death. The funeral had stretched for days as the whole neighborhood assembled and took care of the children while Joshua seemingly grieved. Grieving, as Kai even believed back then, was not something Joshua was capable of. Like Jo once had been. From then on, the year seemed to pass in silence, colourful leaves crumbling under heavy footwork as the dust settled on the windowstill near the dying plants, until the week of the Merge approached and the truth came out. But that was not the worst, Alina was pregnant and the merge was around the corner. In the night, Kai snuck into Alina's room and confronted her, to which she openly admitted that she was only sent to keep him away from Jo, and the merge "because they had plans," she had said. She said it too often but still Kai did not make anything of it. Blinded by rage, he gutted her in the bathroom, killing her and their unborn twins.

* TAPE 2 SIDE B !

ㅤACT 4: ARTIFICIAL SUICIDEㅤㅤNobody batted an eye about Alina's death and the unborn twins were never mentioned again, except hey survived and were safely sent away to grow up within the Bennett coven. And Kai had no idea. Jo had never been strong enough to become the next leader; even Joshua was aware of that, he was willing to skip the two, either waiting for the unborn twins to be old enough or taking Liv and Luke. Not only that, but Joshua, knowing Kai's nature and state of mind, would never want his perfect daughter to merge with him, possibly absorbing his 'sick mind' too, as he called it. Even though neither twin would truly win the merge, each having their own difficulties after, one of them being dead, merging with a siphon meant immediate death and all chances for the Gemini Coven to keep their reputation would be gone in a whim if Kai was to become the leader. He knew that. And still, he kept pushing, insisting on getting what he had been promised for all those years.

* SNAPBOX !

ㅤACT 5: BAD DECISIONSㅤㅤㅤOn May 9, 1994, he made the decision to kill his coven for excluding him and stealing his birthright and to merge with Jo in retaliation for everyone's betrayal and manipulation of him. He had waited until his father was out of the house, his mother had gone with them. He and his siblings were left alone. And he knew that he would kill them all, except for one year old Zoe, who he could not find in time. He went out of his way, drowned Joey in the pool, gutted Maddie with their father’s knife, hung Charlie from the stairs and siphoned Joey dry before he stabbed him more times than he could count. Naturally, he had saved Liv and Luke, the best, for last.

Jo, however, stood in his way and attempted to act heroic, as if she had nothing to do with his suffering. A heated argument broke out between the two. Eventually Kai's feelings got the best of him, forcing him to gut Jo with the bloody hunting knife to get her out of the way as he went after their siblings, but Jo managed to cloak the twins to protect them, clutching the guts that were about to topple out of her body. Kai was so angry that he broke her ribs and almost killed her. That was when she promised to merge with him, half dead, half breathing. To give him what he wanted. Kai was too enraged and heated to recognize her deceit. With a smile, he had told her that it would be fair to give her two days. The days passed in an antagonizing silence, nobody dared to speak up to him, Kai believed that they had finally understood. When the day finally came, Jo, to his unknown, had hidden her magic. When he touched her, Kai felt nothing. There was void, emptiness. However, it was already too late when Kai realized it. The rest of the coven, especially his aunt's side, had used a solar eclipse to cast the banishment spell on him and trap him in a purgatory dimension for his transgressions. As he was exiled into the Prison World, a place where he could not hurt anybody and would forever be alone. Kai sobbed in pain and collapsed to his knees, caught in a moment that he believed would finally set him free and grant him the position of coven leader that was rightfully his.

ㅤACT 6: WHAT IT COSTㅤㅤKai made multiple unsuccessful attempts to end his life during the years he spent in prison, as the isolation drove him insane. He only recalls the relief he felt as he bled out and the terror he felt when he woke up a few hours later, unharmed. He is unable to recall how many times he attempted suicide. One day, there was movement in the prison world. There were people, and the day was different. Kai was giddy with anticipation, knowing that he could go, get out, and fulfill his promise. But the witch had no magic. When the only thing Kai needed—a witch named Bonnie—finally showed up, he became so furious that he almost killed her friend. Fortunately, she was so concerned about her friend that she was able to use pyrokinesis to trap Kai by creating a boundary of flames around him. They brought Kai back to the boarding house to ask him why he was in this dimension after Damon used the opportunity to knock him unconscious. After some threats on Damon's part, Kai finally admitted that he never intended to kill Damon -- he was merely trying to motivate Bonnie to get her magic back, as it was the key to returning them to their home. And it had worked.
Bonnie questioned Kai, who informed them that they would need to use her magic to harness the power of the solar eclipse using a family heirloom, the Ascendant. The three went outside to allow Kai to determine the location of the eclipse's power focus for their portal after performing the spells to get ready to return home. While they were watching Kai work, Bonnie re-read their newspaper and realized that one of the main articles on the front page was a story about a man named Malachai who killed most of his siblings in Portland, Oregon. Kai freely acknowledged that he killed his siblings and even said that the Gemini Coven had made their dimension a prison world on May 10, 1994, as retribution for his crimes. Bonnie, horrified by this story, refused to do the spell to return them home, even despite Damon's pleas that they needed to return.
Kai then grabbed Bonnie by the arm and siphoned a portion of her magic before giving her and Damon an ultimatum: he could siphon all of Bonnie's magic to the point of her death, kill Damon, and then use the Ascendant to go home alone, or they could all go home together. This forced Bonnie and Damon to begrudgingly agree to his terms in order to ensure their survival. As Kai, Bonnie, and Damon were preparing to do the spell the following day, Bonnie realized that the reason why Kai hadn't killed her was because he needed a Bennett witch specifically to do the spell. Since Kai was no longer needed, she telekinetically threw an axe into Kai's chest, and he fell to the ground, seemingly dead. But before Bonnie and Damon could depart, Kai was brought back to life and stopped them, shooting Bonnie in the stomach with an arrow from a crossbow. He tried his best to prevent them from completing the spell, but Bonnie was able to magically throw Kai backward, allowing her to pull Damon into the light of the eclipse and throw him the Ascendant so he could leave and return to the real world in Mystic Falls, believing that she would die before she could get there.

ㅤACT 7: NOWHERE TO GOㅤㅤThe next day, Bonnie awakened in the Salvatore Boarding House with Kai, who was trying to reassemble the Ascendant. She temporarily neutralized him by killing him before she fled to the hospital to heal her injuries. In order to prevent Kai from absorbing her magic and using it to escape, Bonnie deceived him by placing it in her teddy bear and sending both the bear and her magic to the living world when they entered the tunnels. Then, still confined and now without magic, Kai and Bonnie found themselves in the Prison World.
A week later, Kai took Bonnie to Portland for Thanksgiving to have dinner at his family home, but eventually revealed that he had brought her there because he needed magic, and Bonnie's trick with her teddy bear made him realize that his older sister Jo had hidden her own magic in the hunting knife with which he had stabbed her in 1994. Bonnie argued that he still needed a Bennett witch to do the spell, but Kai corrected her and told her that all he needed was Bennett blood. He then took the magic from the knife and absorbed it before stabbing Bonnie in the stomach with it. With Kai now in possession of the Ascendant, Bonnie's blood, and the magic from the knife, was able to ditch her in his yard and, at some point, escaped the Prison World, leaving Bonnie dying and without magic in Portland before going back to Mystic Falls and ironically enough, met Liv, making him realise that the whole coven was there, even those who he believed dead. He could barely believe his eyes, knowing revenge was finally due. He knew he would come for them one by one.

Chaos/Aleks, 28 y/o, CEST, ENG/NOR/GER

ㅤDEFAULTㅤㅤCast out by his coven for being a siphon, Kai snaps one day and murders most of his siblings, intending to erradicate the coven and become their leader. His family does not take kindly to it and so he finds himself on thr ground ,screaming his lungs out while his family and his coven banishes him into a prison world that dooms him to repest the same day all over again— forever.Years passed, each more agonizing than the last, but one thing never changed: Malachai's fierce bloodlust, which choked him whenever he dared to breathe. Instead of calming him down, the years spent in the prison world had infuriated him. He had experienced everything, every suicide there was, he had tried. All food there was, he tasted. All music there was, he had heard. All shops there were, he had seen. One day, there is movement in the prison world and he finds a witch, Bonnie, whom he manipulates to get out. He leaves her behind and finally arrives in a modern day Mystic Falls.
Kai is finally escaped from the prison world, but he finds himself in a strange world where politics have changed, cultures have changed, and there are wireless cell phones. Mystic Falls is a terrible place that he does not fully trust, but he is drawn to it by the magic, the atmosphere, and, most importantly, by his coven, who let Kai rot there and forgot about him as if he were nothing.
What he finds in Mystic Falls defies his expectations. He only wanted a drink at the local bar, but instead he finds himself face to face with the same sister he had chased through the house with a bat, about to smash her four-year-old brains in and now, Liv looked quite bubbly and alive. His coven never separated, which meant one thing: the Gemini coven was in Mystic Falls, and the majority of them were present. And he? He had vanished from existence, as if he were no longer a person worth caring about.

ㅤV 1: PRISON WORLDㅤㅤCaptured in the never-ending tedium of the prison world, Malachai has been confined to solitude for several years, compelled to repeatedly relive the same day over and over again, and instead of escaping the prison world, Kai stays confined there, reminded of the one day he would never forget about. The prison world wished penance on him but instead the anger in his heart had only intensified, forcing the time loop to be a constant reminder and thus, directing all of his physical hatred toward everything and everything.
As he treads to the same store he had gone for the last years, he finds cans opened, water bottles missing and things moved that stood at the same attention the morning earlier as they had for all these years. In his desperation, his mind had almost led him to believe that it was just another clever ploy by the Gemini Coven, a last-ditch effort by his father to provide for him, but there was movement, and it was not his father but—someone else.
Kai feels a feeling of renewed hope. He believes that if someone got in, he can use them to escape. So that he can finally feel the rain falling on his face once more, he starts hunting down the newcomers, deceiving them, and using every trick in the book to manipulate them. However, the most difficult puzzle is still unsolved: how could they be there? What are they doing in his prison world and most importantly, can they be utilized and manipulated as a way out?

ㅤV. 2 NEW ORLEANSㅤㅤWho would Malachai Parker be if the magic of New Orleans did not draw him in like a moth to the flame. Not officially called upon like a ghost, and still would he follow the whispering voices about serial killers, magic and the promise of both and the electrifying sensations of the promise of magic anywhere. After killing most of his coven, Malachai finds himself on the way to New Orleans during carnival, one step in and he thrived in the atmosphere already, drawing the amosphere in as much as he did the magic of it. Certainly it does not take long for the Mikaelsons to hear about his arrival. They want similar things, very similar things– power. And they could help getting it, each in their own way.
After Malachai kills Marlene Deveraux, the ancestors grow alarmed about him. But instead of worrying his head about it, Kai thrives in the excitement of it and soon, siphons too much magic, that nearly overwhelms him. To his rescue comes a young witch, Davina Claire, whose parents remind him too much of his own to just look the other way. He soon begins to form an alliance with her, time after time noticing that she had many dark aspects that Kai would grow increasingly more fond of, heightening his intrigue over her. Nowadays he finds himself where the magic is, drawn in by the current chaos of the french quarter, hiding in every corner and finding amusement in the darknest of places. But not only does he find new alliances there, he also finds old friends, and old enemies.

ㅤV.3 HUMANㅤㅤUnder a colorful night sky, tragedy was born in Portland, Oregon. The Parker family was well known and rather infamous in both their city and the country, having founded an advanced astronomical research facility called Gemini. It went without saying that every child would step into their role at the firm, and all of them wanted to, they grew up with the stars. Things were going well until Esther drove home with Malachai late at night after an event ended, wanting to bring him to bed as Jo and Michael were home, babysat by their aunt. The streets were dark and wet, and things came crashing—literally. Kai and Esther fought in the car and Kai turned the steering wheel, ramming the car right into a tree. His mother lost her life to the accident, while Malchai suffered severe damage to his frontal lobe and was never the same again. The family, desperate to protect their image, spun a tale of tragic accident, yet Joshua harbored a deepening resentment for his son. Kai's behavior spiraled, he hurt children at school, spun lies and brought trouble wherever he went, prompting Joshua to seek a diagnosis, not out of paternal concern, but to officially deem Kai unfit to lead. The verdict was swift and unsurprising: Antisocial Personality Disorder, a condition Joshua was informed could have been prevented had he sought help earlier for Kai's developing Conduct Disorder. As Kai's twenty second birthday, the traditional turning point for leadership selection, came, Joshua’s efforts to sideline him grew. He'd plotted against him, secretly, openly promising him he could lead it. He remarried and kept having children, hoping to make it harder for Kai to be drawn. While Kai’s triplet siblings pursued paths in astrophysics and medicine, Kai remained, waiting for the day he turned twenty two. But one day before his birthday, when Joshua clearly told him that he would never lead the firm, Kai snapped. He had waited until all of them were asleep and then killed most of his siblings, leaving only Josette, Michael and the youngest twins alive. Yet, instead of claiming his throne, he found himself banished to a Portland psychiatric facility, imprisoned for ten years, each day a relentless cycle of plotting his escape. At twenty-six, he finally succeeded, manipulating a nurse to fake his death before silencing her permanently in a staged accident. Returning, Kai found his family vanished like a black hole had sucked them in. But he knew they weren't gone, and he would search every corner of Oregon until he found them, ready to reclaim the throne he believed was rightfully his.

ㅤAU. 1 SHADOW AND BONEㅤㅤNo far from the woods behind Djerholm, Malachai is born a rarity to etheralkis Joshua Parker and Esther Parker as a Void Summoner, or more commonly called a Siphon, a rare type of Corporalki, which makes him a rarity amongst both summoners and Grisha. His parents had traveled through the fold for supplies on the other side, and were attacked by volkra. It did not kill either of them, but it poisoned Esther with Merzost, so much of it, that she thought it would kill her, she knew she needed to do something, so she offered her unborn child to Volcra— which they had no interest in. Months passed and while Esther was unable to create an physical amplifier, something else happened. Her newborn child could do the opposite. Instead of amplify, he was able to siphon.
While he could not summon anything by himself, he was able to temporarily lend it from other Grisha by physical touch, gifting him both all Grisha powers and none at once. Malachai was examined at the age of ten, but got tested either way. Since he was a Void Summoners, though, it did not show and he was labeled as otkazat'sya, and therefore unfit for the army. And while all of Malachai's other siblings were taken to the Little Palace for training, he stayed behind, deeply hated by his parents for the danger he posed, and himself, developing violent and antisocial tendencies as a result of his treatment. They swore to never let him see the day of light, deeming him too dangerous and unstable.
He was taken to djerholm, more specifically the ice court and was dropped into a cell that like him, was void of any color. Only once a week, they would have him come out to weaken or kill prisoners they deemed too dangerous or unstable, most of the time, though, it was punishment and as a reward, they let him siphon from the fold. And still, the days grow dark on him and the itch in his body has still not been scratched appropriately to satisfy him.

ㅤAU 2. STRANGER THINGSㅤㅤThe lengthy hallways of Hawkin's lab are cloaked in darkness and the incessant cries of agony. At ten, Kai and his brother were taken from their family and brought to the Hawking Lab, where they were given the numbers 013 and 006 respectively. Terrified and isolated, they gradually revealed their abilities. Malachai was an anomaly in a pool of anomalies because, whereas Michael was able to cloak objects, people, and other entities, he was only able to draw powers from others. He was both stronger than everyone else and useless because he stole their abilities. He was supposed to keep anything he desired hidden, but it was practically impossible to do so with Papa's eyes on him all the time.
Soon after, Kai found himself separated from the others and confined to a room with chilly white tiles that pricked his warm skin, forcing him to speak to himself. He’d often smashed the tiles, threatening to kill them all. At first, being left alone did not seem too bad but then, seclusion got to him. The lack of noise around him, the smell of blood that coated the white walls like a stretched cloth of carmine. But Kai did not stop at smashing tiles, he also smashed 011's against the tiles in the rainbow room.
Instead of letting 006 leave the lab, they threw him into the Upside Down, tossed away like trash, to protect himself and prevent him from doing more harm. They had considered killing him that day, but his family had given him voluntarily, and they did not want to appear unappreciative for their sacrifice. Kai lived through eighteen years of darkness, loneliness, and agony that almost drove him insane. After all those years of being treated like a weapon, meeting Vecna was more of a blessing than a curse. It thrust him back into Hawkins, where he was more determined than ever to kill everyone connected to the Hawkins Lab and anyone with abilities similar to his. He wanted the only attention for himself.

ㅤAU 3. HUNGER GAMESㅤㅤBorn in the district 2 to Joshua and Esther Parker, Malachai was the oldest of eight siblings, which was not unusual in their district. Growing up in district two meant that you were either a complete loser and ended up in the quarry, or you were the soldier they wanted you to be and later became a presentable victor. Early on, it was discovered that Malachai was seriously mentally ill, which tore him away from his academy days, his friends, his promised victory, and his glory. This was in contrast to the others who would leave for university. His outbursts would land him in hot water, rendering him unfit to serve as a tribute. That only fueled his rage, prompting him to murder half of his siblings.
The Capitol's peacekeepers could not openly kill him and hang him in the square, so Malachai was sent to the academy and trained alongside Brutus as if nothing had happened. When he was nine, his guide, Ares introduced him to Cato and Clove. While still competing to be at the top of the board each week, they had grown close, to the point where they would spend nights at the quarry rather than returning home, seeking companionship. Cato's willingness to volunteer with Maxima became clear as time passed. Initially a good idea, hadn't it angered Clove. Malachai saw her and took one look at her, and knew he would volunteer with her instead. For the first time, he saw something familiar within someone, the blind rage, the predator that threatened to bare its teeth and rip out its victim's throat.
When he told his family about his plans to volunteer, they laughed at him, mocked him, and told him that no one like him could properly represent District two, that he was not thinking clearly. And from then on, he was ignored.
It was his eigth birthday and it was the same night, when they came to take him. But they had not come to take him to the academy, they had come to take him to the capitol.
From one day to the next, he was no longer in Two, he could not attend the academy, and his friends had been abandoned, never knowing what had happened to him. They convinced him that everyone had forgotten about him, so he began to blame himself and took it out on himself, throwing punches at already healed bruises.
But the worst had not come yet. Despite being unfit for the games, they begin training him within the Capitol. And then, they send him into the arena. Not to make a show like the other tributes are conditioned to. No, they sent him there to be taken care of by he other tributes, and for the weaklings to be taken out. So what happens when Kai refuses to play their game?
