#anyway. he is like a chew toy to me.

hi i need alex lore :3 ✈️🐶🔺🚫💙🖤🥲

✈️ AIRPLANE — does your oc like traveling, or do they consider themselves a more homey person?

he was not a traveller when he was alive. he never wanted to leave the house. ever. but now he's kind of sort of dead, he's pretty much forced to travel around the whole country multiple times a day just to help people die. he insists he HATES it with all his heart but that's actually just because he is beyond pissed at himself for never having experienced life outside his hometown when he could while he was alive. he WANTS to see the world so bad. but it's a little difficult in his current situation bc he very rarely gets to choose to exist. and when that does happen it's maybe for like 5 minutes before he is forcefully dragged back into the afterlife again. he's having a very horribvle time forever and ever basically.

🐶 DOG FACE — does your oc have any pets?

he never had any while he was alive, which is another one of his huge regrets bc he ALWAYS wanted a dog... just never got the chance. and now he's dead. well. i need to think more about this actually this has given me an idea. don't even worry about it

🔺 RED TRIANGLE POINTED UP — does your oc know how to use any weapons?

he knows how to use guns. and knives. whether or not it's particularly well is up for debate bc the only things he has had practice on are ghosts and people who are already dead. which is also funny actually because he basically has an infinite amount of time to practice things like this. yknow. just in case. [he wants to experience the world again sooooooooo badly. but also he's a little insane. you understand] he IS much better with his fists though!!! but only marginally. he looks like a slight breeze could turn him into dust so thats actually huge for him.

🚫 PROHIBITED — does your oc drink/smoke? do they do it regularly, or is it more on occasion or for special events?

ANY CHANCE HE GETS!!!!!!!!! he's dead it doesnt do much to him anyway and thats like. the one fun thing he has enough time to do when he sneaks away to hang out on earth before he gets caught a few minutes later. he has become VERY good at downing drinks within seconds.

💙 BLUE HEART — does your oc have any cool/special powers and/or abilities? how are they with magic, if it exists in their world?

not much of a cool power or anything but like. he's dead. and also alive. exists in the space between life and death because he died weird and got stuck there. so he helps people pass on from life into death to make it. Not So Scary. but the thing is the others in this space are like, spirits who have been doing this for centuries, theyre something beyond human. they were made specifically for this. theyve mastered the art. alex is just some guy who's technically not supposed to be there but also can't be moved around anywhere else without tearing the fabric of reality in one way or another. not ideal!!!!!

🖤 BLACK HEART — has your oc killed or seriously wounded anyone before? have they broken someone's heart and/or broken someone's trust?

well yes many times but at the start of the story it's like, not in the violent sort of way?? he's just. handing people off from life to death. which kind of Technically counts but not really. later on in the story, when he DOES finally get the chance to exist on earth again. well!!!!!!!! lets just say he got a little too excited. again dont worry about it.

he is an asshole. he has broken trust and hearts many times. on account of being an asshole. he can very easily change this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but he doesnt. on account of. You Understand. [he will change. a little bit. eventually. maybe.]

What did they do to you

[epicfirestormer]

Okay look, I've never really read Greek mythology (my only exposure is EPIC the musical and I've never read The Odyssey or The Illiad so bear with me) but I feel like Odysseus is cursed to always suffer. Not in the same sense Cassandra or Sisyphus are actually cursed, but in an almost unwritten rule sort of thing. Like, how much of an unlucky bastard do you gotta be to constantly be thrown around by one god to another. How are the gods so involved in his life. First is Athena, which fair enough, she chose him as her champion. That one wasn't a problem. But then he runs into Polyphemus, who is POSEIDON'S SON. which, talk about unlucky. then he runs into Aeolus, which also wasn't actually a problem until the crew fucked around and found out with the wind bag, then he runs into Actual Poseidon, gets most of his crew obliterated and then yeeted to CIRCE'S island after that, because of course he does. Only after he found out his leftover crew ran into Circe of all people and was about to go confront her, does he run into Hermes who genuinely has no reason to be here and doing all this besides maybe helping his great grandson and also for entertainment purposes. Then he runs into Circe and it turns out she's pretty chill actually when she realized that he really just wants to go home and not stick around to do anything bad. Anyway, they don't run into any gods for like a saga and a half, which is a new record really, but shit still goes wrong because Of Course It Does and THEN Eurylochus tries to kill one of Helios' cows and then fucking ZEUS comes in to chime in and give Ody the illusion of choice (where he'll suffer no matter what he chooses). Zeus is literally just taking the piss out of this whole thing, and when Odysseus makes his choice, he STILL gets fucked over by being sent to CALYPSO'S island and being stuck there for SEVEN YEARS. Like, at that point it's just Zeus being petty. I'm more surprised that we don't have more scenes of Odysseus breaking down in tears during the entire musical. He's just being used like a ragdoll and thrown around.

Like. Odysseus' story is only a tragedy for everyone involved. It's actually a comedy of error for all the gods who are watching.

I need to give Aeryn more ritualistic scarring…

From Orin not Gortash, that’s important. Gortash is all about the mental scarring with Aeryn, The Physical Gort Scarification Incident was merely a reaction to The Orin Scarification Incident. a reclaiming.

So Orin doing the same thing back when she lobotomises that little freak feels very in character.

and then there’s Kressa Bonedaughter. I don’t even know what to say about all that. and the Emperor’s Astral Tadpole if we’re speaking a bit more metaphorically. (and you know Gortash is PISSED about the cosmetic changes that has on him)

my point is: can people stop using this guy as a canvas please.

(sicko voice: not really though. never stop. break him more.)

With how unbreakable his skin is, Nnoitra sounds like the perfect chewing stim toy

❝ Oh yeah, 'fo 'sho, if ya wanna break yer teeth. ❞ His skin didn't budge. It was not just immune to cuts and slices - it was also immune to pressure. It was more like an exoskeleton than anything else. So you might as well try to chew on metal and call that a stim toy. Nnoitra wasn't going to be anyone's fucking plaything.

He'd like a toy like that for himself though. Someone he could chew on as much as he wanted without them dying on him would be really handy. He'd probably get frustrated if he couldn't break the skin, but how about something in-between. A toy that you could ruin if you tried hard, but that would withstand the everyday play. Hah, a man could dream!

i was going to crack a joke about how the only thing on my lore wishlist for the dlc was that they would finally explain why the hell marika got impaled and crucified on the elden ring. and then it occurred to me that our one canon named boss so far is an archetypical erdtree traitor-styled demigod quite literally titled the impaler
