Dead Silence

Exiled from an already broken family, the Barricks are a family of not only wealth, but of greed, embezzlement, treason, and corporate espionage. Their son, born from a terrible health deformity, was born without lips; however, the father did not wish to fix the young boy’s condition, even with his abidance of money. The boy then lived life secludedly from all those around him, for he could not speak nor know how to be social. Years later, he accepted his defect, and refused to take pity of those around him and embraced who he was. His father didn’t take liking to this, so he framed his own son, which would have him locked away in a maximum security prison. While locked inside, Ivan plotted his escape and how to resurrect his revenge upon his drug dealing, wife abusing, money hoarding ass of a father. Even despite all what Ivan had to suffer through - his heart carrying a painful burden -  he would never desire to see any child suffer the same way he had. Injustice was his greatest of all disdains in his twisted manipulation of a life.
