Faker

In a world where social status and success are determined by one’s Authentic Signature—a unique mark of talent or power each person develops in their lifetime—Kaylen Moore is a rare anomaly: a Blank. Labeled as talentless and invisible to society, he has spent his life on the fringes, watching others ascend to greatness while he’s left with nothing.

But everything changes when Kaylen stumbles upon a forgotten artifact that allows him to mimic the Authentic Signatures of others. Armed with the ability to "fake" talents and powers, Kaylen quickly begins to climb the social ladder, infiltrating the highest echelons of power. From street-level thugs to influential elites, no one is safe from his deceptive abilities.

However, as Kaylen rises, he discovers that the artifact comes at a cost: the more he uses it, the more it chips away at his sanity and blurs the line between his true self and the personas he creates. To complicate matters further, a shadowy organization that hunts down those who tamper with Authentic Signatures is closing in on him.

Caught between the life he’s always dreamed of and the looming danger of exposure, Kaylen must decide: will he embrace his facade to become someone extraordinary, or will he risk everything to discover the truth behind his Blank status?

Themes: Identity, deception, ambition, and the cost of power.
