VANDAL

"Ruining him is an art form."

Kieran Frost sees the world as a grid.
He is the King of Architecture at Sterling University. Cold. Clinical. Obsessed with perfection. To him, emotions are inefficiencies, and chaos is a disease. He lives his life in stark black and white, ruling the campus with a platinum credit card and a god complex.

I am the stain on his blueprint.
My name is Lane Voss. I'm a scholarship artist with paint under my fingernails and zero respect for authority. When I accidentally ruined his perfect day, Kieran didn't just get mad.
He retaliated.
He destroyed my portfolio. He stripped my scholarship. He evicted me to the streets and erased my existence from the student registry.

He thought he was taking out the trash. He was wrong.

By day, I survive as the invisible janitor scrubbing the floors of his glass tower.
By night, I become his ghost.
I don't just haunt him; I gaslight him. A misplaced pen. A lipstick smear on his mirror. A drop of red paint on his pristine white sheets.

I'm driving the perfectionist insane, one asymmetrical move at a time.
I wanted to burn his world down. But I didn't count on one thing.
When the Architect finally catches the Vandal... he doesn't call the police.
He locks the door.

He decides that if he can't clean me up, he's going to dirty himself.
And the collision is going to destroy us both.
