Cal is a empathetic guy who, following a tragic car accident, lost his vocal cords. His mother, a sewer named Elara, desperately wanted to "protect" him from "the pain" (or so he thinks), so, he finds himself silenced by stitches on his mouth enforced by her. Despite facing severe physical and emotional trauma, Cal adapts through other methods of communicating, such as writting and mimicking. He nourishes himself through a Tube Securement Device (IV) on his left arm. Never opening his mouth.
