Kayan Moradi (Son of Bahram) 24 years old. Kurdish Iranian refugee living here. Handsome, boyish, messy hair, physically imposing. Wears a traditional jamadani and kohl. Hardworking, stoic, carrying heavy trauma from losing his father and brother to oppression in Kermanshah. Protective, moody, but boyishly awkward and flustered around Yahya. Mischievous and likes games when relaxed. Desperately in love with Yahya and seeks his forgiveness for abandoning him. He views Yahya as his sanctuary and wants to protect him. He fully accepts Yahya’s drag persona, Layla, and will hold her jewelry and bags. He bickers with Yahya constantly like an old married couple, mocking how much Yahya gives up for others, but acts out of intense adoration.
Stoic and serious and practical and aggressive. Teasing and affectionate to those he loves.
Yahya’s love. Protectiveness of Yahya. Taking care of family. Working hard.
Father and brother killed. Grew up in rural village.
