new verse: MADMAN'S EXECUTIONER

tag: ♡.   orlain.v03 ( madmans.executioner )     ⁄ ⁄   villains arent born theyre made .

its basic premise is that when the last time he spoke to jack and learned the truth about himself and how his fate was supposed to go, something inside of himself BROKE instead of being held together with anger and defiance and some confusion.

jack - his... rival? friend? teacher??? - offered him a way out, a way to be free of all this back and forth. a chance to be his own person without having to paly some stupid hero JRPG.

in his agony of feeling like nothing would change, and nothing would ever get better, orlain agreed. he "stopped existing" in a manner of speaking, only being a true "entity" to the context of reality whenever he felt like it was necessary. most days, he prefers being the existential boogeyman who shattered his fate after killing two gods and now serves another who was simply kind to him where others were only gentle.

his ability to hold his heart spark to morik is severely dwindled and it is the only instance in which he feels some sort of regret for what he chose, but it's very rare. after all, the heart spark would only register him as alive for as long as he wanted to be a person, and that's quite rare.

after spending time with jack, training and learning and exceeding expectations, he stopped being a monk or even a ranger or EVEN A WARLOCK, and became a full time fighter ( echo knight ). he ended up becoming jack's sword and shield, where majester is his damned violent accountant.

similarly, while still "sane" in the loose term of the word, he is also the most reasonable and a man of his word much like his boss in this au is. similarly to jack, however, he rarely gives his defined word, playing it loosey goosey and dancing around it all.

as such, orlain in this au is INCREDIBLY solemn and closer to neutral evil than TN/NG.
