repent means "the pain again."

description
born in seclusion to diametrically opposed parents, raised among a little conclave of devoted believers, Nicolas and his brother Caleb hone the powers that will make them abominations in the sight of both the Devil and the gods. they run a little wild with a pack of loyal, semi-feral dogs, listen to the lessons of their demonic, hungry mother and those of their saintly, healing father, and above all. they grow.

powers
— regeneration: they heal from injury and come back to life when killed.
— mental influence: they can charm and persuade, or they can control and force; their presence can improve people's moods and general well-being, or push them to do terrible things.
— godly heritage: they can nurture life, heal with their blood, and under certain circumstances, resurrect people.
— demonic heritage: they sustain themselves on human flesh, can control their bodily temperature, and generate fire.
— mixed heritage: they are not susceptible to divine or unholy influences, and share an empathic link with each other.
