Meet the character: Remus

Poor Remus! Always in last place, even when running alone. Despite having stayed with his parents when Marius, his brother, abandoned the family, he never felt gratitude for his commitment. Even as he assumed the unwanted role of being in charge of the family factory, he was only met with criticism and contempt. Nothing he does ever seems to be good enough for anyone.


Even though he was often overshadowed by his older brother. Remus looked up to him growing up. As such, he resents Marius for abandoning him. The responsibilities that were always intended for the older son unexpectedly fell on his shoulders, overwhelming him.


The only silver lining for Remus is his close friendship with Dr. Filumen, his father's trusted physician. Despite the age difference, the two are like two peas in a pod, as the doctor jests. Remus cherises his friend and heeds his advice in all matters, as he feels he is the only one interested in his well-being.

Though he acts dettached and bitter towards his family, in his heart he yearns for their approval. With the certainty he will never gain it though, most of all, Remus wants to be left in peace.
